  • Maybelline New York Baby Lips Moisturizing Lip Balm

    I have to admit, I think Baby Lips is introducing a new revolution of combined lip balms and lipsticks. I love the fact that it is soooo moisturizing and gives off some color as well. I have the peach, pink, red, and clear one. I love using the clear one under my lipstick. It helps glide them on so smoothly and even applying it over a matte lipstick. Even my little sister who has an allergy to most lipsticks is stoked about Baby Lips because she can finally add some color to her lips without having an allergic reaction. I love the color pigmentation on these. They're light but enough to show a "natural" sheen on your lips. I love how soft they look too. It's hard to describe and it really does make your lips look AND feel softer. The only reason I didn't give this a full 10 was because they don't have more colors and the tubes itself are not labeled with the colors on it. It's only on the clear plastic label and once you take that off, it's gone, so I have no idea what the names of the colors are, but I guess that's not so important.

  • LORAC CC Color Correcting Cream

    I can't believe no one's reviewed this product yet, but I am happy to say I'm completely in love with it! I know it's used for color correcting (duh...) but I love how it makes my face look so smooth and creamy :D I have noticed that it has evened out my skin color though. I used to be very tanned and darker but I've gone a shade lighter since using it 3 months ago.

  • Smashbox Halo Hydrating Perfecting Powder

    I've decided to do away with "finishing powders" but I couldn't avoid this because I wanted to try the BB cream it came with in the kit. I have to say...I'm done w/ OTHER finishing powders. This product is freakin' awesome.... It's worth every penny and I don't plan on using anything else. I also noticed that it does a really great job of covering my large pores and acne scars which makes me love it even more :D

  • Maybelline New York Define-A-Brow Eyebrow Pencil

    I know a lot of other readers don't really care for this product, but I've found myself returning over and over again. I love the fact that it's self sharpening and for someone with very thin and light eye brow hair, this makes it look so much more natural. I will agree that there should be improvements, such as color selection...I believe their colors are blonde, light brown and dark brown. It seems pretty basic but my hair is black and even the dark brown isnt dark enough for me. I need the colors to match you know :) Also, another note, a spoolie brush would be better than the comb...other than that, I love!

  • E.L.F. Eyebrow Kit

    E.L.F. Eyebrow Kit

    Pretty Good for it's Price

    For $3, I'd use this product again It's not my favorite, but it does a pretty good job. The wax really does help the unruly hairs stay in place. I was a bit nervous about this set because of the color of the wax and the color of the powder, such contrasting colors of each other. However, I found that the colors would match depending on how much pressure or color you pick up with your brush. I do NOT recommend that teeny tiny pathetic brush it comes with though. I use my own angled brush and Sonia Kashuk has a small eyeshadow/shading brush just like the itty bitty one this comes with.

  • E.L.F. Studio Eyebrow Treat & Tame

    I usually really like ELF's line of products, but I'm going to have to pass on this one. I did purchase it and was hoping that it would help my unruly, very light, and naturally non-matching brows, but unfortunately, it did nothing for me. The gel didn't hold very long and the tinted part, well, the formula was WAAYYY too wet and would leave streaks on my skin. Plus, because it only comes in one color, which I don't think is really a good idea considering everyone's different skin tones. I have darker skin and my hair is black, so this very light brown doesn't work too well for me. I have a friend is a very light blonde with fair skin and this came off too dark on her. So far, not worth it, but I gave it two stars because I like that ELF attempted to expand their line of products to include this. THey just need to try harder.

  • Cover FX Cover FX Total Coverage Cream Foundation SPF 30

    I was really hesitant about buying this because of the price, but after watching Kandee Johnson and other YouTube gurus boasting about it and all its glory, I decided to go ahead and purchase it. I kinda regret it. I didn't experience the same results they did. I know we all have different skin and skin types and skin reactions, but still. I don't feel that the application process was so great. Mine definitely did not feel creamy. It felt really hard and almost chalky. When I applied it to my face using the sponge it came with, it was very "chalky" and did not blend out very well. At first I thought it was because of the sponge but the next time, I used my Sigma Sigmax F82 brush to apply and found that it was hard to just even get the product onto the brush and experienced the same problem when applying it. Also, this product states that it's so good that it even covers tattoos....I don't know about that claim. It barely hid one of my color spots on my cheek. I still had to use my concealer for that one. I also noticed that it made me look like I had caked on foundation which I was not happy with. Overall, I think this was truly over-rated and does not work for me.

    Smashbox Crease Brush #10

    Absolutley great!

    I got this brush as a gift with a purchase at Ulta and my, my, my, I have to say. This brush is totally worth its price whatever it is! It is super soft and pillowy-ish. I love how full it is but gives off such a nice blended look. I love this one as much as I love my MAC 224 brush, perhaps maybe even a little more because I've noticed myself grabbing this one more often. Even after washing, I've not noticed a difference in the way it applies. It still gives off great color and great depth especially when using it to apply a deeper color in the crease area (not for me, I have monolids, but for others I put make up on). I can't get over the fact of how soft and fluid this brush is. I haven't used much of smashbox's brushes, but I think I definitely will and in the near future too.

  • Smashbox Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer

    Although, this primer is good, it didn't meet my expectations. I have rather large pores and visible acne scars. The sales rep at Sephora recommended this primer because of it's intense concentration. I tried it on my wrist as she tested it out there and although it worked great on the lines around my wrist, that's not exactly what I was going to be purchasing for. It does hide the pores a little bit, but I find that even with foundation and concealer on, it doesn't look any difference than the other primers Smashbox already carries. I've tried the light and the regular one. I like the Light one because I have oily skin and it feels great and works very well. I go back and forth on this product. I don't really like it and don't really want to use it but I did spend over $30 for it, so I try to use it when I can, but truth be told, I really feel like I'm forcing myself to use it because of the price. The formula is very thick (in my opinion) and when applied to my face, it doesn't seem to want to go on smoothly either. Maybe it was just the actual one I got, but I don't think it does anything "more" than the other regular primers.

  • Tarte Lights Camera Lashes 4-in-1 Mascara

    Tarte Lights Camera Lashes 4-in-1 Mascara

    I have 2! And a bunch of Travels

    I absolutely love this mascara. I mean....seriously. I have such small lashes that even when I wear hundreds of coats of most other mascara, you can barely tell I even have any on. But not with this one, 3-5 coats (depends on the occasion) and I'm good to go! Like my title says, I have 2 and a bunch of travel ones. I carry one of the full size in my makeup train, the other full one in my purse, a small travel size one in my to-go makeup bag, one travel in my desk at work, another travel size in my car, and another travel one in my other car. I seriously love this mascara. Everything from the formula, the consistency of it, the fact that it doesn't flake, it doesn't make my lashes look like spider webs, and it actually really lengthens my lashes. This isn't the waterproof version, but unless you plan on going swimming or taking a shower with it on, I think you're okay. Also, HOW CUTE IS THE PACKAGING??? I love it! So gorgeous and sooo totally worth the price. One of my favorite (if not the only) product from Tarte!
