I really do like all the shades this lipstick comes in. It has all the bascis and some fun colors for special occasions and the price is cheap enough to try new colors you wouldn't normally try. I fell in love with the very pale pink shade, it looks fabulous when first applied. However, about twenty minutes later, it had 100% faded. Not a speck of it was left on my lips. I'm currently searching for a similar shade from a different product line. I just don't have the time to keep re-applying my lipstick every fifteen minutes. I'ds say this is a good product for testing shade ranges because they are so inexpensive. For example, I've never worn a very dark red so I bought a Nyx one to test it out and see how it looked and how I felt wearing it. Other than that, its not a dependable product.

What I like most about Nicole by OPI is the color options tend to be more standard then OPI's lines and more wearable. I've found every shade I've ever purchased to be good quality with not many coats required and the polish does not chip easily. My favorite colors are suprisingly from the Kardashian line of polishes, "Full Kourt Fashionista" a fiery red-orange, "Kloe had a Little Lam Lam" a dark emerald (good for toes) and "All Kendolled Up" a fun magenta-pink. My one issue with them is that they do not last long and dry up rather quickly.

I was suprised to find this nail polish to be as long-lasting as it was. My polish lasted about a week before I had to redo them. Though, I do use a very good top coat (seche vite). The color range is what initially drew me to this line. They are also constantly adding new colors to this line so you really can never get bored. They are affordable as well.

I received this in the starter kit for Bare Escentuals and this product was probably the worst of the bunch which says something since all of the products were pretty inefficient. They instruct you to sweep this on cheeks, neck and all the places the sun would naturally tan. By far, warmth turned out to be the worst bronzer I've ever tried. I'm not even sure its intended to be a bronzer seeign as It looks more like a sunburn. Increased redness is not exactly something I look for in my skincare products.

I used bare minerals for a few months hoping to achieve coverage as well as healthier skin and byt the end of those three months I can say I'd never by this again. First off the 'mineral' thing is a gimmick and my skin was not imporved at all by how supposedly healthy it is for you compared to other non-mineral foundations. Secondly, I was sixteen when I tried this and this stuff aged my skin ten years. It settles into fine lines and makes your skin look tired. I also recall I had a hard time finding a color that matched me; a problem I've never had before or after that. And to top it has zero coverage power. I was using it primarily to cover up acne scars and belmishes and it didn't work at all. Don't be fooled by their advertisements or infomercials this stuff is plain powder in fancy packaging.

I usually like physicians formula blush and bronzers but this bronzer is a no go. After I applied it, my skin looked no different (even the darkest shade) and its really difficult to get the product out of the compact and onto your brush. I ended up throwing this away it was so useless.

This product is not my favorite remover but it does the job on basic mascara. I find that I have to apply it twice if I have eyeliner or mascara on, which can be annoying and I always have to really scrub my lower lash line and I still wake up with makeup residue in the morning. It is better than some removers I've tried but there are better formulas out there. The only plus side is it has a soft feel to it.

I've used these twice before and they definetly give good results for a home treatment. Color does not develop immediatly so it could be discouraging at first especially since the process of placing the strips on is not always pleasant but stick to it and you'll have a whiter smile in no time. I found that it does nothing for clacium stains though, those have to be drilled out and filled in by a dentist.

Honeslty this bronzer is better than formulas, ten times its price. It is higly pigmented and lasts all day. The color 'princess' is a beautiful deep brown with very tiny felvks of shimmer that reminds me of Nars bronzer in 'laguna'. I often use this an eyeshow as well. I do caution you to be careful with application because it's easy to go overboard with this bronzer and you really only need a touch at your temples and the hollows of your cheek. I use a small tapered brush; the one it comes with is terrible, toss it, and a bronzer brush will pick up too much product and leave your complexion muddy. You can't beat the price of this. It's a great drugstore dupe and I reccomend it.

Sally Hansen Double Duty Strengthening Base & Top Coat
I See No Difference When I use it and When I Don't
Some Salley Hansen products I am over the moon about but their top coats and base coats are just not cutting it for me. I find that the only thing this adds to my nails is more time to dry. I have used an entire bottle of this hoping to see what all the fuss is about and frankly my nail color lasted just as long and looked exactly the same as when I used no base or top coat. I think this just has the placebo effect where you think its working because that's what the product says it does. Bottom line, I would not buy this again.
