  • Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Compact Powder Foundation
    4.0

    Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Compact Powder Foundation

    good product, bad color selection

    I used the Neutrogena 3-in-1 concealer underneath this, and the combo worked great. However, after going through a whole compact in about 2 months(maybe because I touch up my oily skin a lot) I did not want to get it again. I have yellow undertones and this would show up orange or pinkish during the day once my face started getting oily. If you have pink undertones this product would be great, but otherwise Neutrogena only seems to offer pink based foundations. I also tried the Healthy skin liquid foundation and it looked red/pink as well. You are better off trying Loreal true match for the same price or MAC for high end color selection.

  • Everyday Minerals Cheeks

    I have this in Snuggle, a sheen peachy/pink color great for light skin with yellow undertones. This comes in a large container that lasts for SO long! The pigment is great, and can seem overwhelming when you first put it on, but nothing that a little blending can't handle. I gave it only 9 stars since it can take some research to find the best shade, it is sold online only and the container can get messy sometimes like most loose makeup. It is worth it for me though, since it has great staying power underneath a setting powder and looks very natural, not to mention it doesn't contain harmful ingredients and you can get it at a great price. LOVE!

  • Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Flawless Wear Concealer

    the color selection is limited! I was color matched to the right shade, but the undertone is way off, being that it is pink and I have yellow undertones. I was so excited to find something long lasting but after just one day of using, I am still on the search for something long lasting that matches my skin. What good is a long lasting concealer if it doesn't look natural?!

    Neutrogena Body Oil

    Very smooth and soft, for body and hair ;)

    This is great for out of the shower, and leaves your skin feeling very moisturized. It has a light scent that is refreshing, and I have even used this on the dry ends of my hair!!

    Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream

    The ABSOLUTE BEST moisturizer!!

    Although it says for dry, sensitive skin, I think anyone can use this product. I have oily skin and it's safe to use since its oil free and non comodegenic! Many people with oily skin do not realize oily skin still needs to be moisturized, because if you strip all the oils, it will only cause more to be produced. Our skin likes to balance itself, and this cream definitely works when I have used harsh acne products-which I have switched away from:) You will not regret using this!!

    M.A.C. Mineralize Skinfinish Natural

    Wanted to love this product, but it's just ok

    After all the hype, and seeing my friend wearing it looking natural and beautiful, I was excited to try this product. I ended up getting the Mineralize Satinfinish foundation in NC30(great color match for me) and the MAC girl gave me a Medium Plus in this to go with it. First of all I love the dome shape and using my Ecotools powder brush barely takes any of it away from the compact, so I was impressed with that. A little definitely goes a long way, but I found that unless I paired it with foundation, the color was not the best match for me since they only come in about 6 or 7 shades. This would be much better if it came in more color selections like the studio fix(but mineral version!). It does give off a natural glow, but since I have oily skin, maybe it was not the best selection for me. I tried Physician's Formula talc-free mineral powder which definitely controlled my oil more than this. Once again, ok product but just not for oily skin!

  • L'Oreal Paris Extra-Volume Hydra Collagen Plumping Mascara

    When I think of collagen, I imagine my lashes soft and natural, but I was wrong. I bought this because I liked how the brush looked full and soft (in the picture). The brush size was okay, but the mascara comes out very hard and causes lashes to stick together. Clumps way too much even on the first coat, and does not give a natural feathered look. I will probably give it to someone else because I do not like the feeling of hard lashes...save your money there are many mascaras out there!

  • Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mineral Blush

    This has great pigment and a little goes a long way. I was using Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Blush but I was tired of the messy loose powder and the inconvenient packaging so I bought this in the search for a mineral blush at the same price. I use the Ecotools blush brush with it, since I never use any of the brushes that products come with, and it works great. I am confident that it will last a long time, and I look forward to trying other colors too!

  • Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mineral Loose Powder

    I have been using MAC's Mineralize Skinfinish Natural by itself (and sometimes with the matching foundation) but let's be honest, who has the time for foundation and powder everyday? This was a bonus when I purchased the blush(which I also like) and so far, it is great. It has great staying power, and for my usually oily afternoons, this was WAY BETTER in controlling oil than the MAC!! Also, it has added SPF and less ingredients for my acne-prone skin. I feel good about wearing it, and it looks good too. I am using Buff Beige, and I have yellow undertones but I might try another color next time to get a more perfect match and see how the colors compare. Make sure to use a powder brush, one sweep is all you need. I give it a 8 only because I prefer when foundations are given a number instead of a name since it is easier to find out my shade, plus in every store, the colors seem to be limited!

  • CoverGirl Fantastic Lash Mascara

    CoverGirl Fantastic Lash Mascara

    bottle dries up quickly and clumps easily

    I always close my mascara bottles tightly so they will not dry up, but this one always did, and would even get clumps on the outside rim. On the positive side, the brush is a good size, but the clumps that build up on it don't make it worthwhile. Like most mascaras, the first few applications are good, but by a few days it clumps very easily and looks unnatural. Not recommended if you are looking for something that looks like you aren't wearing mascara-isn't makeup supposed to look natural anyway?
