Tarte Clean Slate Flawless 12-Hour Brightening Primer

Not my favorite

I fell in love with Tarte products about two years ago, and could almost swear by every product. Unfortunately this product does not make the cut. I have the biggest issue with mascara, eyeshadow and eyeliner smudging and creasing below my eye. This primer did close to nothing. I still creased under my eyes, and it did not seem like there was any primer at all. Very disappointed but it may work for other skin types.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips

I LOVE these

I love these nail strips. I love getting my nails done professionally but something always breaks or chips, whether it is gel or acrylic. I love these nail strips because I can do them myself, they come in cute designs, and they are not an extreme hassle to take off. I usually buy them when they are on sale because I have gotten a few reject boxes. It did take some time to get the adhesives to stick on the correct place, where your nail is fully covered and not showing, but practice makes perfect. I highly recommend these polish strips, especially if you can get them on clearance or on sale. They last about two weeks or so and I always get tons of compliments on them.

Trish McEvoy Eye Base Essentials

Great Eye Brightener

I tried this product once when I purchased the Total Beauty 9-piece sampler from HSN. I fell in love with it upon the first use. It is not as thick and goopy as it looks or as I anticipated. I found that with one dip in the bottle and into the applicator I can do both eyes. The product is a great stand alone item, with no shadow, but also helps brighten up eyeshadow as well. I ended up buying the full size and I will continue to use it. The only things I didn't like about this product is that I did see some creasing at the end of the day with eyeshadow on top of the primer, as well as when I just wore the primer alone.

Secret Clinical Strength Original

My favorite deodorant

This is my favorite deodorant! I think it does a good job of protecting my body against perspiration. I do a lot of physical work, such as working outside, bar tending, and working in different elements that cause me to sweat. The only thing I do not like is the price and it can also get on your dark clothes.

Lorac Tantalizer Baked Bronzer

Great Go-To Bronzer

I have tried many bronzers, and this is one of my favorite. I am a big LORAC Cosmetics fan, and I find that this bronzer gives me the perfect glow and shine. I rate it as an 8 because it can go on kind of heavy and the large size that I brought broke into pieces (although I still use it).
