This has got to be the worst concealer I've ever tried. It goes on so thick and cakey and clogs your pores. It's also extremely oily. And the coverage isn't that great and doesn't last. This concealer looks fine right after you do your makeup but then about an hour later once you've had time to finish everything and go on about your day it quits working and you end up with a big oily cakey mess on your face. It's like it knows that your busy and can't touch up your makeup so that's when it decides to quit working. This stuff is horrible

I have this in Vamp it Up and it only took 1 coat for it to be completely opaque. It really does dry fast like it says and I've had mine for a while and it still hasn't gotten goopy. This really is a great polish.

I have really badly damaged hair and major split ends, and this has helped tone it down a lot. It makes my hair super shiny and keeps it from getting static-y as well. That being said, this little tiny bottle will last you forever. I've had mine for months and I've barely made a dent in it because you can't really use more than 1 drop (like 1/4 to 1/2 of a dime sized amount) at a time. Any more than that and all the good goes out the window and it looks like you dunked your head in grease. Oh and NEVER put it near your roots, that's just asking for it. This is a very oily product and you have to make sure to wash your hands with lots of soap after using it because it won't come off otherwise. But.. as long as you only use a drop and keep it away from your roots it works great.

This is my favorite eyeliner. It goes on so smooth and doesn't tug at all. It lasts a really long time and I love that it's self sharpening. You can't go wrong with this.

I love this brush. It's small enough to be very precise, but still a good size for allover color without taking forever. If you turn it vertically it's great for lid color, and sideways it fits perfectly into my crease, and it's small enough to do the inside corners too. I love that it was only $1 and it's professional quality. The bristles are super soft and don't fall out at all. Besides a fluffy brush for blending, this is the only brush I use for my eye makeup anymore.

I absolutely love this foundation. I've never liked liquid foundations because I have a problem with oil and they usually make me look shiny. I've always gone with mineral powder foundations. But my cousin started selling Mary Kay and had a party to try all this stuff out and I wanted to try this since it said it was supposed to be matte. I left it on all day and even slept with it on overnight (I know that's bad) just to see how long it would actually last before oil showed through. I woke up the next morning and I was still completely matte. That's crazy. It's medium coverage when you first put it on, but it's very buildable. You can put it on once and let it dry, then go over the spots that aren't completely evened out and still not feel like you're wearing anything. I don't even use concealer anymore because I can just build this up in the areas that I'd normally put concealer and it still looks great. This is like my holy grail product right now.

I have fairly oily skin, so I don't need a heavy moisturizer. This one is very lightweight and keeps my face soft and moisturized without overdoing it. I use it every morning and night after I wash my face ( I don't use the other velocity products, just the moisturizer). I really like this. Just so you know, if you have very dry skin, this is not the moisturizer for you.

I have a huge problem with oil creeping up in the middle of the day, and since I started using this it doesn't happen anymore. I do wish it came in a larger tube though, because for $12 you don't get very much.

This primer really does help my eyeshadow stay on for a long time and keeps it from creasing, but it's not as great as some of the other primers that have color to them that help eyeshadow go on in it's true color. I think if this went on as a light flesh color or white I'd like it a lot better..

This really does control oil. I have a problem with looking shiny halfway through the day and it doesn't really happen anymore since I started using this. And I love the packaging! That's actually why I bought it... I was looking for a pressed powder and this was the prettiest one haha. But I'm really very happy I got this. The only downside is it does look very powdery up close. It's great for real life or normal photos or video, but if you're working with high-def where you're really going to notice every little detail I'd skip it. It'll be very obvious you're wearing it.
