Sephora Professionnel Perfection Makeup Base

Good Product

This primer smells good and applies better with a moisturizer or foundation. Helps for smooth application, but am more impressed with how well it keeps makeup in place. Worth the price.

Victoria's Secret Very Sexy Makeup Eyeliner

Overall Great Eyeliner

I like using this eyeliner; it has a smooth application that is easy to make into a smoky eye or blend with another eyeshadow. My only gripe is it's a bit too soft to maintain form for long and requires constant sharpening, virtually with every application. Not a big deal -- I'd still buy it again.

Revlon ColorStay Concealer

Good Coverage, Cakes Easily

I find this product excellent in concealing red blemishes or prevalent skin discolorations, but it cakes very easily even when wet. It extenuates fine facial hairs, sometimes clumps and flakes, even when I try blending a regular foundation on top. Cakiness be reduced when applied with a brush (rather than patting it in place with your fingers), but sometimes I find the damage irreversible and have to start on a fresh face. Would try a different product next time.

Elizabeth Arden Provocative Woman Eau de Parfum Spray

#1 Favorite

I love this perfume! Long wear & not too overwhelming. I am on my second bottle and will continue to buy again!

Neutrogena SkinClearing Liquid Makeup

Doesn't Cause Breakouts, But Limited Coverage

This foundation is excellent for oily & acne-prone skin. I take oral antibiotics to treat acne and haven't had a problem with the foundation clogging my pores in the 2 years I've been using it. However it doesn't completely cover redness or blemishes as well as I'd like, and it seems to melt off as the day goes on. I'd recommend it to someone who has mild acne they'd like to lightly conceal, but not for full coverage.
