These are one of my favorite nail polishes, they have such pretty vibrant colors. Its easy to put on and some of the colors I find only need one coat and they even look great without a top shiny coat. These last pretty long too and I am pretty active with my two boys, so the fact that they last through all that I do is pretty amazing. I have a few of these but two of my favorites are iced queen and coral crush. It can get a little streaky after a while so you have to shake up the bottle real good but other then that these are great.

I really like these. They are affordable and long lasting. They have a nice selection of colors. They go on smoothly and are easy to apply.

I got this product about 2 weeks ago because my lips have a tendency to peel. I love wearing lipstick but it looks so unappealing when I would apply it over the parts of my lips that were peeling because lipstick seems to enhance those parts and I would get annoyed so I would start to bite my lips which would make them start to bleed. I have tried Lip balms and Vaseline but they seem to help with chapped lips but not to get rid of that dead peeling skin. So I do like some of elf's products and I saw this lip exfoliater at Walmart for 3 dollars and I got it. When I opened it later that night I noticed the black sleek packaging, it's very classy and professional looking. When I took off the cap, I noticed the smell, it smells like coconut and sugar, it's a very sweet and pleasant smell. And it's like a lipstick making it easy to apply. Then I followed the directions, I cleaned off my lips, and began to apply by gently rubbing my lips in a circular motion (be careful not to rub too hard because it is a little rough since its supposed to remove the dead skin) When I was done I rubbed my lips together and noticed how yummy it tastes too! I had to stop myself from licking my lips! So then I took a wet cotton ball and cleaned off my lips and then applied a lip moisturizer. I have done this for almost 2 weeks now and my lips are no longer peeling! No more dead skin or biting my lips, they are so much more smooth and now my lips look great when I apply my lipstick! I love this and I have no complaints, it does what it's supposed to!

I was seriously excited to try out this mascara based on the many great reviews, but I was sadly disappointed :( I'm not going to say that this mascara is the worse I've tried but it's definitely no where near the best and definitely not worth 19 dollars. I'll begin with the pros: Loveee the packaging, long wearing, no smudging or flaking, holds a curl. Now the cons: doesn't volumize or lengthen much, very clumpy and stuck my lashes together. I used this mascara up and after about 3 months it dried up, and I was soon looking for another mascara.

I am definitely a fan of the original bare minerals foundation. Even though I always preferred liquid foundations, the original was a pleasant surprise. I love how this line is free of harsh chemicals and has benefits for the skin. So when I heard that bare minerals was coming out with a liquid foundation, I just had to try it! My color was pretty easy to find I am Bare Ivory 04 and it matched me perfectly. But While this is not a bad foundation, sadly, its not as good as I had hoped. When I first applied it I really loved it. It feels very different from other foundations, although it says that it's oil free, it actually feels a little oily, but not in a bad way it actually feels very good on the skin. It's very smooth and blends easily especially with my real techniques expert face brush. I used about 4 drops and that was about medium coverage for me. After applying it, I loved how lightweight it felt, and how natural it looked. My face really brightened up! So I thought It was wonderful at first but then came the next test, how long does it last? This is where it didn't do so well. After about 3 hours, it began to separate around my t-zone and looked blotchy. Mind you this is without primer because I wanted see how well it did on its own. The next time I tried it with a primer. That time it lasted about 5 hours until it began to do the same thing it did the first time. I was pretty disappointed, if only it had stayed as beautiful and flawless as when I first applied it! It would've been perfect! However my mom also got this, and she loves it, it will last her almost all day. So I guess it works really well for some but not so much for others. So my favorite continues to be the original. I will probably use this up and not re purchase.

I love this product for contouring! I have light skin and this product gives just the right hint of sun kissed color to my skin! Be careful if you are light or fair skinned though, using too much can look unnatural and reddish so you only need a little and it gives you beautiful color! This will last all day without fading, and as with all bareminerals products it is formulated without preservatives which is definately a plus to me because Im always very careful about what i put on my skin. The only con is that is can be a little messy since it is a loose powder, and it is on the pricey side but since you only need to use a little each time, it will last you a while!

Elf brushes never seem to disappoint. I have owned 4 of them and after months of use, they are still in great condition! I have washed them and used them many times and they do not shed at all. This particular one I love to use for bronzer and blush, it is perfect for contouring! The bristles are so soft and just like all of Elfs studio brushes, it is all black which makes it look professional. You would think that because of the quality of the brush that it could be pricey but it's only 3 dollars! I will always be a fan of these brushes!

I'm usually a little hesitant when purchasing new liquid liners because they tend to be a little difficult to apply and usually disappoint me. But I'm glad I took a chance on this one! The soft tip of this is great for making a precise line, whether it be a thin line or thick one, and it's especially easy to wing it out for that sexy cat eye! The pigmentation is wonderful and intense and really brings out my eyes. Not only that, but it also lasts all day without fading or smudging. I have even worn this on hot days when i was sweating and it did not budge! As far as the claims of making your lashes grow, Im not too sure I havent really noticed a difference there, but I still think this is an Awesome liquid liner for only 10 bucks!

I used up this bottle just to not let it go to waste. It didn't give me the coverage I am looking for and definitely did not make me look a 100% poreless.

I got a sample size of this mascara from ulta when I purchased a couple other products from bareminerals. It's not bad but I probably wouldn't purchase the full size. The brush is good for separating the lashes and the formula does a good job volumizing and adding a bit of length. However, I didn't hold my curl. And Another thing I'm not crazy about was how hard it was to remove. I used a makeup removing face wash from neutrogena which usually takes off all my makeup just fine, but after I rinsed off my face I had horrible raccoon eyes! I actually had to apply some of my neutrogena eye makeup remover lotion, which always removes mascara with ease, but i still had to rub a bit under and over my eyes to get it all off. So, while this is not a bad mascara, it didn't really WOW me, so I don't think it's worth spending around 18 dollars for the full size.
