This powder/foundation duo gives GREAT coverage, especially when you are using a new, clean sponge. It is so quick and easy to apply, and you can layer it on to suit your coverage needs. There are many, many shades to choose from, so many that I often find myself with a new shade each time because of how tan or pale I get depending on the season. The major drawback of this product is that it suffocates your pores. You do NOT want to fall asleep with this on, your skin cannot breath and it clogs your pores badly. While this product provides such great coverage for people with imperfections, acne and blotchy skin, you have to ask yourself, is it really worth doing long term damage for short term results? If you do wear this, I suggest washing your face as much as possible and not leaving it on for too long. Such a bummer that such a useful product can be so bad for your skin!

Like another reviewer said, I tried a bit on the back of my hand and it seemed really dark. I tried it on my face and the color matched perfectly! I always seem to have trouble finding a true foundation match, so I have been sticking to powders, like MAC studio fix. My facialist said that powder is very thick and has been blocking and suffocating my pores, so I decided to give foundation another go. This foundation goes on light, and you can layer it for a more full coverage, which I love. My skin still feels like it can breathe. If I accidentally fall asleep with it on, I don't get a bunch of blemishes. This foundation is definitely a keeper.

I have tried just about every blotting paper out there, and this one is the best by far. NYX comes close is 2nd place. I found this at Sally Beauty Supply and decided to try it out. I wish they were available at other places! I love how it has a light coating of powder on one side, and none on the other if you choose to have a blank paper. It soaks up all the oil and leaves a nice powdery matte finish. I will never buy another blotting paper other than this one. I have found the best.

I line my waterlines, so it's difficult to find a liner that will stay put for long periods of time. I love this one because it glides on thick and dark, and stay on the longest. The black is a very dark black, which is great. If you are using it on your lids, it creates a thick kohl line, and is great for smudging. It's definitely worth the price.

I love this mascara because it really fans your lashes out and keeps them full, not stringy, fat and clumpy. It is a little bit expensive, but it lasts a good while and is the best for giving you thick, long lashes.

I bought this mascara because of the brush, this type of brush usually works well with my long lashes. Once I opened the package I realized how ridiculously oversized it is. The formula seemed a little dry to me and I had to keep coating and coating with the result being semi thicker lashes, definitely not longer. It does do a good job staying put and not smearing across my brow bone, though. The brush was a little too big for me to work with. I ended up returning it and exchanging it for the LashBlast Length (yellow tube) instead.

I have really long lashes and I chose this mascara because the brush is similar to Chanel's Inimitable Mascara which is the best mascara I have ever used, but it's so expensive. Anyway, I thought I found a cheaper replacement. The brush was impressive, but I felt like I had to keep coating and coating my lashes and they didn't seem to get any fuller or longer. The only thing this mascara is good for is separating, and even that is mediocre. On the bright side, It doesn't seem to smear on my brow bone like a lot of mascaras do. Ultimately, I spent twice the time putting this mascara on just to be disappointed. It's $8 bucks though, so I guess you get what you pay for.

I was really excited to try this mascara because of the brush, and it was cheaper than the Givenchy mascara with a similar brush. Huge disappointment. It was extremely clumpy, and only worked well for my corner lashes. I would think it works well for shorter lashes that need a lil thickening. Or you could just keep it around for when you ae looking for a dramatic look, it would be a good tool for the corner lashes.

This mascara gives me the longest eyelashes of any other mascara I have ever used. I already have long lashes, so I am very impressed. You should make sure to curl your lashes extra well because you will lose a bit of the curl with the lengthening this gives you.
