Too Faced Lava Matte

It's okay

I actually borrowed this from a friend. It's okay, it smudges good. But I think I'll stick to my $0.99 NYC dual-end black eyeliner. I got the same effect for much cheaper.

Olay Daily Facials Night Cleansing Cloths

Nice and Smooth Cleansing

This product should be in everyones beauty regimen. I love this stuff. It smells nice and soft for night time (heck, I use it during the day, I don't care!) and it's makes my skin feel so refreshed, since I torture it all day with eyeliner and mascara. I frequently forget to refill this thing, so I usually have a meltdown every couple of weeks when I realize my sister used the last one. Great for removing makeup. I only gave it 9 stars because it doesn't seem to remove mascara too well. I suggest olive oil for that.

Benefit Eyecon

What Was This Supposed To Do Again?

I won a pocket-sized version of this product. I liked the packaging of the product and the name is cute (eye-con=icon, yeah yeah). But, after applying it day after day, I found little difference underneath my eyes. It seemed to brighten for a couple of minutes, then I would go and ask my sister if she noticed a difference in my face. "No, you look the same." I find this product pretty useless. Maybe it'll work on someone with some serious under-eye baggage...

Victoria's Secret Bare Bronze Collection Flawless Glow Face Bronzer

Beautifully Bronze

Though I am naturally tan, being of a darker complexion, I still crave a summertime glow that doesn't necessarily come natural. I discovered this bronzer on accident. I don't know what exactly I was doing in Victoria Secret. I think I went in there on a whim since I don't purchase lingerie from there. But I got into smelling lotions and body sprays...anyway, to make a long story short, I saw this bronzer came in 4 different shades and i picked the deepest glow. I love how it blends in naturally with my skin and it just looks so wonderful. I always get complements. I have already made my 2nd purchase of this product and plan to continue using it as long as it is available.

Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer Light

A Realistic Photo Finish

This product is amazing! It goes on really smooth and right after applying, I see a noticeable difference in my complexion. I don't even have to wear powder or foundation anymore. I just swipe a little powder bronzer over my cheeks, forehead, nose and chin for a nice glow and put on some lip balm. Even when sweating through the 100 degree temperatures in Florida, after I cooled off in the air-condition, my face still looked matte, not greasy AT ALL! Love this product, it is worth every cent!
