A lot of people rave about this so I was lucky enough to buy it from Ulta when it was on sale for $10 since $20 for an eyeliner is a little steep. I wasn't impressed at all since I found that the color Plushie I got wasn't as pigmented and intense that I would like. Also, I noticed it dragged across my eyelid and left behind chunks of eyeliner. I tried creating a cat eye look with this and it never turned out right because the color was patchy and I could never apply it evenly. I was hoping this would be good for the waterline but it barely showed up at all. You are better off with Milani Liquifeye liner. The only thing I liked about this is that is stays put and doesn't smudge or budge throughout the day but it does tend to fade a little bit.

I don't know why one of the reviews said this liner was really dry. Maybe the formula changed over the years. I found this eyeliner to be really waxy. I would say this was made for the eyebrows instead. It was so waxy to the point of it tugging on my lids and didn't apply evenly. Don't bother trying to sharpen this to a sharp point because after I did, it broke off when I applied it to my lids. The formula is too soft that it doesn't hold up and I can't create a sharp cat eye but it is soft enough to apply on the waterline. The funny thing about this liner is that it is waterproof but can fade throughout the day leaving patchy spots. It is pretty hard to remove since it smudges everywhere like peeling off stubborn sticker adhesive residue when water touches it. I've never had an eyeliner do this at all! Overall, one of the worst eyeliners I've ever tried.

I got this in Faux after trying soooo many colors that didn't work out for me. It's the perfect mauvey pink color that isn't too brown or pink on me. I love love love!!!! I love how this is creamy and stays longer than any lipsticks I've ever own. With that being said, it isn't too much of a drying lipstick although not super moisturizing either. I wish it didn't transfer at all and $16 for a lipstick is pretty fair but I'm still looking for something out there that's comparable and cheaper. Then this would totally be a 10 for me.

I've always wanted to try Mac lipsticks because of all the hypes since I'm a newbie to Mac and everyone talks about this brand everywhere! I can see why so many people love their lipsticks. The color selection is huge but I rated this 8 stars because it was hard to find the "right" color I wanted. I wanted the perfect mauve color for my skin tone but every lipstick I tried was either too dark, too light, too pink, too brown, or too gray. Yes, I'm very picky. The formula might last long but with it comes the drying factor which isn't too bad on this like other lipsticks I've tried. I can see this lipstick used most often for those who go clubbing because of the staying power. The bright colors are super pigmented and leaves a stain so beware when you're swatching colors. Overall, I do like it and normally I wouldn't spend more then 10 bucks for a lipstick but the price on this was fair and not too expensive.

It blends effortlessly but beware: this concealer is very heavy coverage. More than any I have ever used and a little definitely goes a long way! Just a tiny dot on problem areas will do. I made the mistake of applying too much and it left my skin too gray. I bought this in the medium shade since the light to medium shade was too light on me. I dot a little bit of this on the back of my hand and then apply with a pointed brush verses dotting it directly on my blemishes and undereye circles. I find it works and blends better this way and also looks more natural. This has a very thick consistency so don't apply too much or else your face will feel quite heavy and greasy but overall I love how this concealer covers my bruises extremely well! Just remember to set it with powder on top since I find this product really oily and that's the only reason why I don't use it on a daily basis to highlight and contour. Also, it never really dries and still stays tacky so I always have to set with powder on top. Other than that, this concealer alone with no foundation gives a very airbrush natural finish. Because it is quite heavy, it breaks me out a little bit but not too much.

I didn't think I would ever be blown away by such an inexpensive blush. I've tried a lot of bad products from Wet N Wild to the point of me giving up but after so many rave reviews on this I knew I had to try it and I'm sure glad I did. Pearlescent Pink has become one of my favorite blush colors that I reach for often. And for the price, what a steal! It gives the most natural looking flush on the cheeks. I think it's even better than Nars O***** because normally we wouldn't blush a coral color but more of a pink color like this one. I find this blush to be suited for EVERY makeup look I create and I'm not exaggerating when I say this. The blush blends easily and lasts a long time. I just wish WNW would make better brushes with their products. Every of their handy tools that comes with their items are just cheap, bristles too stiff and plain horrible. There's no need for wasting materials to make it but for the great price and good quality product, I can't complain since I can just use my own brushes.

For a lip tint, it sure packs some color. It glides on easily but didn't really last long since I noticed it is a little bit more oilier than the Lipsurgence Skintuitive one. It's supposed to be a stain but I didn't really noticed the stain after it faded. Love the minty feeling and peppermint smell! I'm a sucker for minty lip products. This product didn't blow me away but not the worst either. It didn't really leave much of an impression for me.

My first impressions of this blew my mind and I reach for this often. I would totally rate this 10 stars if it had a better brush. I wasn't too fond of the spiral brush since I found it a little difficult to use. I like my mascara brushes to be plain and simple. This mascara reminded me so much of my beloved Diorshow. It thickens my lashes well on the first coat and is extremely dark. Gives my straight thin lashes amazing length and volumizes. It doesn't smudge and doesn't clump too badly when I apply two coats. I love the formula on this so much but would only change the brush. If that happens, this would be my holy grail mascara!

This is a highly overpriced nail polish and I wouldn't buy the full size ever since I've had other nail polishes that cost a fraction of this and still performs better. I bought the trial size as part of a kit. I asked the Sephora staff if this nail polish is even worth it for $18 since I love OPI and they claimed that this is wayyy better than OPI. I disagree to a certain point. First off, I love the brush on this although it is skinnier than the OPI brush. I love how stiff the bristles are. It makes it easy to get polish on your nails instead of the skin outside the nail bed if the brush is too flimsy. This polish blends so easy and doesn't apply streaky at all! However, it wasn't opaque enough that I had to apply two coats in order for the true color to show. It also didn't dry as fast as I would have liked.

This lip gloss reminds me of Christmas because it smells like thin mint cookies and feels really minty on the lips. Is it just me or am I the only one who found these sticky? It's a thicker consistency but you can't really overdo it on the lips since the product absorbs before applying too much on the lips. I got mine in the color Dare Devil. I like how the color isn't too sheer to the point where no color shows up but you can still tell that there's a medium hint of color.
