I skip my eye primer because of this. It goes on so smooth and creamy. Not too oily which I find in most creamy eye pencils that sometimes my eyelids tend to itch. I also use this in the inner corner of my eyes to brighten up my eyes or as a highlighter above my cupid's bow or under my eyebrows. And it doesn't crease as bad compared to other cream products for eyes like Covergirl's shadow stick did. This applies smooth and dries to perfection.

That I've ever used! I like that it doesn't leave my hair crunchy or stiff but still holds well plus the added volume without that sticky feeling. I bought the trial size at Walmart just to test it out after numerous good reviews on it. Im happy to say it deserves it.

Tresemme Fresh Start Color Care Dry Shampoo
I didn't realize there were so many versions of this......
But I looked in my cabinet and realized I bought the Color Care one instead of the Volumizing one that I needed for my flat hair. I can't tell you if this did much to protect my hair color since I haven't had my hair colored yet. I happened to check out the reviews on the Volumizing one and now I'm kind of reluctant to try it since everyone gave it such bad reviews. This one however wasn't that bad. It did pretty good to absorb my oil but I find that I had to use a lot to actually get the product to work. Also this only works good if you're planning to put up your hair because I found that this product leaves my hair goopy and heavy. It left my hair limp and flat with little volume. I also didn't like how this applies white but once I rubbed the product into my scalp, it was okay after that.

I got this due to the many great reviews on this. This is actually a quality product at a very cheap price. I was debating on this or the Yes to Tomatoes Spot treatment but after seeing the price tag difference I ended up buying this instead. I like how this packaging doesn't require you to use your finger to blend it out. It has a nice little roller ball that applies effortlessly. I was surprise that this product didn't make my skin tight or itchy like other acne spot treatments such as the Clean&Clear one I tried long ago. I put this on before I go to bed and wake up with my underground pimple and zits reduced in size and redness!!! Also, my underground pimple stopped hurting. (You know that bugging feeling you get from them but can't do anything about it because they're unpoppable.) That irritating feeling was completely gone after one day! The smaller pimples I find were gone in one day but the bigger ones were gone in 2 to 3 days for me. But the only problem I gave this 9 stars instead of 10 is because it did little to improve my current acne scars. I would have loved for this product to lighten them up a little but still, all in all a great product for an amazing bargain!

This product does really absorb the excess oil when I don't feel like I want to wash my hair on day two. I like that it goes on clear so you don't get that white dandruff-looking things in your hair. It also gives me great volume. The only thing I don't like is that it does tend to feel heavy and I have to use a lot to absorb the oil so the container doesn't last that long for me. But this product is great for the price.

I find that the pigment hardly shows up on my beige skin tone. For me, the colors look all the same especially when you blend it out, the contour shade looks like the blush shade and the blush shade looks like the contour shade. There was no significant difference in this. And the price is just ridiculous: $30 for such a small tube. I had to return this just because I didn't feel like splurging on a blush, highlighting thing for this amount of money when it's easier to tell the difference if I just applied contour, highlight, and blush the "slower" way one after another. I do like how this product isn't greasy like most cream products but that's just about it.

NYC New York Color Cosmetics Smooch Proof 16HR Lip Stain
Don't really like the marker packaging.....
This is the first and last time I buy these stains that comes in this marker-looking packaging because the tip seems to dry out in days and the flow of the color doesn't really come out. This product is also very drying and the pigment was barely noticeable for me. It didn't seem to last long for me either and I don't like how this product tugs on your lips when trying to apply it on.

They are hard to use especially since trying to apply mascara on ends up with a huge glob as the tip brushes against your inner eyelid. But I like how this mascara doesn't clump at all even after I applied 3 coats of this. I actually bought this because Paula's Choice reviews rated this as one of the best mascaras for holding a curl well. It does seem to hold a curl a little bit but not a whole lot and separates my lashes well but it doesn't thicken as much as I would've liked.

But just different crayon-looking packaging. For me, this product was not original at all. It's like Covergirl took the same formula from their Lipslicks Lipgloss and just made a different packaging out of it claiming it's "NEW." The product I find was exactly the same as Covergirl's Lipslicks Lipgloss. It had the same gritty texture, even the smell was the same but I got this in Cocoa Twist and I noticed they added a subtle hint of chocolate scent to this. That's it! The color is nicer than the Lipslicks Lipgloss collection and the variety of colors are more but texturewise and smellwise, it's still the same unoriginal product. I admit the color does last quite some time and a little bit moisturizing but not a whole lot hydrating like balms so to call this a balm was quite deceiving. I think it's actually more of a sheer (although not all the way sheer) lipstick with gold glitter particles.

The color wasn't as pigmented as I'd hoped. I bought this in the color Glam Platinum which is a silvery color for my pink undertone skin. The brush is very tiny and precise but the color came out faded and not very opaque. Also, I don't know why but this product stings my eyes when I put it on. I don't know if I got a used one or what but it stings my eyelids where I applied it, making my eyes itch a little. The product seems to last long where I worked an 8-hour shift and by the end of the day, the product still looked the same but warning: this product is not "waterproof" like what it claims. I found it easy to wash off with just water and not even having to use my cleanser.
