Got these at Target in a 2 for 1 price. Had no pigmentation whatsoever! They have a similar texture to Maybelline's bouncy blush. They're cushiony but even after layering this product on layer after layer, literally no color show up at all. Returned the next day.

However, I didn't like the rubbery feeling of this after rinsing my face. I love how this removed all of my heavy eye makeup without me using an eye makeup remover first. It gets the job done well to the last makeup trace. I haven't tried it on waterproof makeup though so don't know if it will work the same. I also noticed two of my pimples were gone the next day after using this. Amazing! The only thing I couldn't stand is the rubbery film on my face so I still have to wash afterwards with a gel cleanser. Cream cleansers just doesn't cut it for me anymore such as this one. When using this, be sure to use just a tiny amount since it lathers quite well with water. The other thing I don't like about this is the fragrance is quite strong and stung my eyes when using this.

The brush takes some getting used to. I don't like how it deposits too much mascara on the brush so I always have to wipe it on the rim of the tube before using or else my lashes would be unevenly clumpy in some areas and bare in another. The formula is really thick comparable to the Diorshow mascara. I would love to double coat this mascara but find that if I do, my lashes get clumpy so only one coat of this will do. First mascara ever that I don't need a second coat to make my lashes look dark and curled but only downfall is it gets clumpy and doesn't separate lashes well due to the awkward brush. It also smudges throughout the day but not too bad to the point where I have to check every hour. More like every 2 to 3 hours I would check.

If you have an Ulta nearby, do NOT purchase this since they give it to you on your birthday for free if you're a rewards member. The brush has a cool concept similar to Drew Barrymore's Flower Zoom-in Ultimate mascara I own. Even though the brush is unique where you can twist the cap and get the look you desire with the brush, I find that these brushes are quite spiky and even when I'm careful, it will literally find its way to poking me in the eye. The formula on this is not too clumpy but lacks thickening agents. It has more of a watery base which isn't really good for my straight thin lashes. I find that it doesn't smudge and hold a curl well because the formula is not as thick as I would like it to be. This isn't a waterproof mascara but when wet doesn't run like other non-waterproof mascara I've tried. It actually flakes off when you remove it with water and your face wash. I like how it comes off quite easily without the staying power like some waterproof mascara. Always a plus for my sparse lashes that doesn't need any more thinning.

For some reason, I wasn't too fond of this eye primer. I found it didn't apply as smoothly as I would like. It tugs on my lids and dries out easily. It also made my eyeshadow look really blotchy. It has a slight whitish tint to it if you're into brightening up the eyes a bit. I don't like how the tube dries out too quickly so when I tried to squeeze out the product, it was a battle just to get the product out. This came with my Lorac Pro Palette so I was glad I didn't purchase it by itself.

This lived up to my expectation! I've heard many great things about these eyeshadow trios but have been hesitant to try it since I've tried MANY Wet n Wild products before and they all left me disappointed. I never really can seem to find a great drugstore eyeshadow because in my opinion, they're not pigmented enough to my taste, so I kind of gave up and steered more towards high-end eyeshadows instead. Thanks to these eyeshadows...I am now a believer! They're highly pigmented and blends so well with little effort on my part. I love it! It's not blotchy like how some drugstore eyeshadows I used to own are. The only reason why I gave this 8 stars is because I wish the trios came with a good matte shade to complete the look since they're all shimmery and they didn't seem to last long. The colors seem to fade after 4 hours of this on so I recommend using a really good primer.

I have really oily skin and needed something to take away my shine. I bought this due to the many great reviews on this. I'm glad I listened and ended up buying this. It has a matte finish (just what I was looking for!!!) Throughout the day during the summer I had no oily forehead. This powder sure absorbed all the oil and left my skin shine free after 8 hours of working. The only thing I didn't like about this was how dull my skin was after applying this. I always have to highlight after just to keep my glow on. Also, the product is not as finely milled as I would like it to be so my skin ends up looking kind of blotchy.

Love the pump. However, I wouldn't categorize this as a foundation. It doesn't have the same texture but feels thick like a tinted moisturizer or BB cream. Applies very blotchy to me. There is also very limited color selection similar to how BB creams are. This leaves my face really "radiant" hence the name but since I have oily skin, that's the last thing I need. I would suggest this for dry skin but not so much on oily skin. This stuff would rub off and make you look like a greaseball within an hour.

I saw Michelle Phan using this in many of her makeup tutorials and decided to give it a go since her brows look gorgeous after applying this on. These pencils are super natural looking without that reddish tint that most eyebrow pencils I've used in the past seem to have. I love the dual ended tip where I can easily blend out the color with the spooley. Despite these pros, I found these pencils hard which makes the color almost impossible to deposit onto my brows. After one hour of this on, the color started to fade. Not long lasting at all. Even after all these years I still prefer a shadow formula to fill in my brows. They're just easier to work with and look more natural to me. Pencils are just really hard to make the color deposit look evenly applied without gaps in between.

I bought this in the brown color and I didn't like how it has a reddish tint to it. It applies smoothly but contrary to what people said, it is not waterproof. I like to aim for a more natural brow look but I find this product to look really unnatural like I painted on my brows. You might like this if you're aiming for that painted sculpted brow look. Not for me though.
