I like this concealer for inner corners of the eye but as a blemish/spot concealer it isn't as good. The sheerness of it and the creamy texture means you have to apply a few more "coats" than you would with a drier textured concealer. It is not long lasting as it faded during the day. Probably works well for normal to dry skins but I wouldn't recommend it for oily skins.

What I like about this concealer is that it comes with 2 colours you can blend to suit your skin tone. I am very fair and finding the right concealer shade is difficult if not impossible. It has a drier texture for better coverage and staying power but blends easily. It's good for oily skin as it doesn't change colour cake. Works well alone or over makeup.

This is a good mascara for evening and special events. It adds that extra oomph of drama. If used in the daytime I recommend using a light hand as it will look overdone if several coats are applied. I would recommend using this product on the top lashes only as it does tend to smudge underneath the bottom lashes (esp. if you have oily skin). If you do not like to leave your bottom lashes mascara-less this product may not be a good buy for you.

I love this mascara. It is the best I have ever used. Goes on easlily and does not clump, smudge or flake. Stays fresh looking throughout the day which is a bonus. Does not require endless coats for good results either.

I don't know what it is about Smashbox, but every product I have ever tried from that line is a disappointment to me. This one was a biggie. As someone with oily skin I am always looking for something to stop "breakthrough shine." Anti-Shine has to be one of, if not the worst, mattifier I have ever used. I experienced oily breakhrough about 30 min. after applying and my skin actually seemed oilier! I am through with Smashbox.

I have naturally thick brows and grooming them takes a lot of care. I accidentally "over waxed" the outside corner of one of my brows. Oops! I purchased this product and in a couple weeks noticed regrowth of the area. I use it to maintain brow fullness and shape. If your brows have been over-plucked for some time and/or grow slowly just give this product time to work. I will keep using it.

I recently bought this eye gel because I am happy with the other PTR products that I use. This one is no exception. It feels light, absorbs well and gives results quickly. It works well with eye makeup by not causing caking, creasing. I will buy this product again for certain.

After discovering Essie nail polish I do not need to try any other brand. I have found "The One". Used with the basecoat and sun protective top coat, the appication lasts longer than any other I have tried. The colours are classic and suitable for any season/fashion. When I have professional manicures I take my own Essie polish. The other brands just do not compare.

While out of my usual mascara and with no time to go to the dept. store I bought this product. Big regret! The "comb" applicator has more cons than pros. Mascara applies very clumpy and it is hard to get just the right amount on the brush w/o having to wipe repeatedly. The end result was a far cry from what mascara was "supposed" to do. It smudged easily, flaked throughout the day and forget any lasting volume. Would not recommend or use this again.

I tried the Dark Spot Corrector (orange) and was completely disappointed. I had some colouring from vacation over the summer and hoped this would help conceal dark spots while I used another product to lighten them. Big mistake choosing this product!!! Not only did it make absolutely NO difference, it made my skin oilier than normal. It caused my makeup and powder to cake (something I had no problem with until I tried this corrector). I would recommend NOT buying this product and spending your money and time on a good spot fading product. I threw this product away and continued with the spot treatment which was amazing. File this Smashbox product under "What not to buy".
