One of my holy grail products!!! I'm so surprised not a lot of people rave about this. The only person I've seen who's raved about this is ItsJudyTime on YouTube. It's like falling in love all over again every time I use this. My brows have never looked so good with just ONE product while looking natural at the same time. Normally I would have to use multiple products to make my brows look good. Such a smart innovation. Love the double ended gel and crayon combo. I got this in Deep Brunette and the color looks so natural without looking red like most gel products I've tried. The gel is also amazing!!! It holds my stubborn unruly brows in place ALL day! I can't recommend this product enough even though it is pretty pricey. $20 well worth it. I just love the staying long-lasting power of this and my brows look freshly applied at the end of my shift. The pencil side blends easily and not like those other brow pencils that's too hard and no pigmentation or hard to work with. Definitely recommend this for beginners and makeup pros all over the world.

Always wanted to try this brand since a lot of YouTubers rave about this. I really don't get what all the hype is about. Good thing I got a deluxe size for free. This stuff is too expensive for a body butter especially when I can get a better body butter for less. For some reason I was under the impression that this would smell kind of candy sweet since YouTubers mentions that they love the smell of this. I hate the smell of this. It smells way too strong and perfumey. It kind of reminds me of the Miss Dior Cherie fragrance that I received as a sample way back when. I also hate moisturizers that feel too rubbery and this does just that. I like my skin to feel soft and moisturized afterwards. This just feels like it sits on top of the skin and doesn't absorb at all. I almost paid for this but good thing Ulta sent me this as a free gift with purchase since all the items I bought from Soap & Glory were out of stock.

And I'm impressed by the blendability of this!!!! It is way better than my Lorac palette since my cousin said that the Naked palette blends wayyyy better. Normally it takes me about 20 minutes to create a good smoky eye look with my Lorac because I have to blend it well but with this, it takes me half the time and little effort. I'm so impressed that I'm going to get more Naked palette. The only gripe I have about this is that there's only 2 matte colors. If UD makes a palette with the perfect amount of matte and shimmer colors, I would rate this 10 stars instead!

I love the packaging on this Naked more than all the other ones. It has a sturdy plastic magnetic case and the print design is super cool. I do wish it was more thin like the other ones though. It's kinda bulky. Like the other ones, the eyeshadows blends seamlessly and has wonderful pigmentation. There is a little bit of fallout but not as bad as the Lorac palette. I don't like the brush that comes in here. I only use the pencil brush side but the tapered blending side is too stiff to actually blend something out. This palette has more matte colors than any of the other ones. It has 4 matte colors: Password, Whiskey, Combust, and Thirteen instead of only 2 matte shades like the other palettes. HOWEVER, it doesn't include a really good transition shade. Password is too gray and Whiskey is too dark and Combust is too light and Thirteen is only a white highlight shade. I'm really disappointed because I thought Urban Decay would get it right by now. I like how they listened to their fans and added more satin and matte finish in this palette verses the other ones but there's no transition shade at all! This is a smoky palette but I wish Smolder was more purple because it just looks black on the lid and Black Market and Dagger already looks black already so I have like 3 black shades in this palette. I am disappointed by the colors in here and will definitely return it for a different Naked palette.

This is not recommended for super dry skin. This is why the product is called "Ultra-Lite." At least it's accurate for how the name describes it for all the other reviewers who call it not moisturizing enough. I love this for my oily skin in the summer. I love how this is super smooth and silky. It almost doesn't feel like a moisturizer at all but more of a face primer. It absorbs super fast and I love how it's not heavily scented. Oh my gosh, I love how my skin feels the morning after I put this on. This is by far the only moisturizer I've used that makes my skin feel super soft like a baby's bottom. I love it for that reason but not much for a moisturizing lotion.

Received a sample of this with my Sephora sample and it is super glowy. More than the Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in my opinion. I don't suggest using this as a "base" or primer as the name states. I used this as a primer for my face and when I applied foundation on top, the glowiness still seeped through. I'm impressed. Even with my Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation which is heavy coverage and matte transformed my foundation into a glowy foundation. I like this because the shimmers in here are super fine and doesn't make me look shiny. This is recommended for all you people out there who want really intense glowy skin. For me, it's not my cup of tea though. I like my skin to be more subtle on the glow factor but my highlight to be on the intense factor. Other than that, I recommend this as a liquid highlight instead.

They changed the packaging on this because it does not look like the picture above. I believe it's still the same formula though. This had horrible coverage. Not my taste. It's a very light coverage and with two layers on, I can almost get it to a medium coverage. However, this stuff oxidizes like crazy. It came out lighter than the bottle and when I spread it over my face, I turned into an Oompa Loompa. Yikes! It was super orange. I liked the finish on this and that's about it besides it coming in a pump. It wasn't too shiny or too matte but definitely returning this. My pores were super noticeable with this on since it provided too little coverage. Liked how it came with more yellow undertones in this too. I suggest going with the Covergirl 3 in 1 foundation. It provides better coverage than this dud.

I needed a good waterproof mascara for my bottom lashes since my NYX Doll Eyes waterproof mascara was running low. I was going to choose this or the Revlon Grow Luscious waterproof mascara during Ulta's 40% off of Revlon, Almay, and Physicians Formula. I decided to go with this one since Emily Noel on YouTube loves the original non-waterproof version of this. I figured it might work the same. I also like brushes that are more hourglass shaped for my bottom lashes since I find that the curve in the middle really does a great job of depositing color. Since the picture on this package showed a hourglass-shaped brush, I decided to try this out. When I finally opened the package I didn't expect the brush to be big almost like the Too Faced Better than Sex mascara. I wish it was smaller so I can reach my bottom lashes more easily. I love how the formula of this is not super watery and it has a thicker consistency so it does a great job of holding a curl. This mascara is a little clumpy which didn't look too bad like tarantula lashes. I hate clumpy lashes but lately that seems to be the trend nowadays that rocker spiky lash look. This stuff will not budge and is very difficult to remove. I hate how this stuff flakes too. I always have to check in the mirror to make sure my face is not covered with mascara fallouts. I love this as a curling mascara since I can use this without curling my lashes first. I'm torn whether I should return this or not since it holds my curl so well but flakes a little bit:-/ But for sure I at least want to try the original version since I like the brush on this for my top lashes.

I hate how these palettes are not consistent at all. Some colors are super pigmented and easy to blend with not a lot of fallout while other colors look beautiful in the pan but when I dip my brush into the color, there's hardly any pigmentation at all. And as we know, Sonia Kashuk is a more pricier brand at the drugstore so I don't want to be using only 2 or 3 out of the 6 colors in the palette when I'm trying to make my money's worth.

For a "matte" setting spray, this is anything but. I have oily skin so I bought this for that purpose but it fell short. I don't even feel like this spray left any kind of finish for me. It just felt like I sprayed alcohol on my face since there is alcohol in this. I don't like the smell of this. Of course once it sets into your face, you can't smell it anymore. I'm only using this until it runs out but in all honesty, I don't feel like it prolonged my makeup or did anything at all. My bronzer and my blush started to fade even with this on. I've tried other setting sprays before and this one seems to take longer to fully dry.
