The fast drying formula really is my favorite part of this mascara. Why? Because applying this to my short, stubborn, Asian lashes holds that curl without making them droop before it dries! However, that quick dry formula also causes it to dry fast in the tube, so following the instructions and 'twisting' the wand back into the tube is critical. I've had no flaking or smudging problems, but a lot of formula is picked up by the brush, giving it the 'fullness' effect; though too much layering can create tarantula eyes! There are definitely quirks here that need mending, but it is a decent mascara and deserves at least a thumbs up.

The greatness of these polishes comes through their amazingly wide color selection and that smooth formula. This brand knows what ladies want! Every shade steps in time with fashion of now and they still find other intuitive ways to make polishes fun every season! I also love applying this and watching the polish smooth over my nail so that every one comes out evenly coated no matter how many coats I do. These dry fast, but I did find chipping a bit of a problem here and there, especially without a topcoat. Still, this brand is worth my money!

With a good base coat, I can come to love these polishes. There are definitely some misses in the formula such as the lack of pigmentation and varying levels of consistency, (I own one that is loads thicker than the others, but not as vibrant), and colors applying differently than what's in the bottle. I have found that these all can be fixed with that base coat, which also brings out more of the polish's color! Dry time is lengthy though, but these have never let me down with chipping. For a dollar and in so many colors, there is definitely something to be loved for the affordability and the option to play around with shades!

Believe it hype! (how can one not?) These shadows are super affordable and work so much for every cent paid! All shade I've tried are, first of all gorgeous, silky, pigmented, AND blendable. With a little primer, these shadows are definitely crease-free and even more vibrant for a good long time. There are a couple small things to look out for, however, such as a heavy hand can actually over-blend and muddy the shades together and that a there is some product kicked up when sweeping the brush through the pan, but both of these problems are easily solved with a sponge tip brush. The one included is quite useful, but it's minuscule and hard to work with! Still, these problems are nothing compared to the price and how much I use them!

This is the definition of good concealer. The formula is highly pigmented and smooth, like skin in a tube, resulting in GREAT coverage everywhere with only a little product (which means there is way more concealer than what I though I had paid for!). There are absolutely no complaints, because honestly, the results just speak for themselves. A must have for every lady!

The first thing I noticed about this foundation is the texture. The powder is finely milled, giving it a nice, silky smooth application that doesn't kick up dust. Coverage is definitely light to almost medium, which does not -quite- cover up my blemishes, but does smooth my face and even my skin tone without caking! My only gripe is how quickly it disappears on my oily skin in the South's humid weather (but hey, what's a girl to do?). However, flaky skin should still beware! This foundation has a tendency to cling!

Even as a free product, I did end up trashing this liner and actually went and spent money on a specific jumbo pencil, instead! The formula is seriously lacking. Though not horrendous, it does cause tug and pull on my eyes, lacks pigmentation and I'm a raccoon by midday. Even if it is better than nothing when in a bind, and the amount for the price is great, there are definitely better liners for just a couple bucks more!

This really is a sweet multitasking pencil. I loved it the moment i tried it on! The formula glides so well, has serious pigmentation, is super blendable, crease free, and do I even need to mention the sweet price tag?! Complete steal, here! A minimal bit of creasing was seen, but only where blending (for a smokey eye) wasn't done well and before it had dried down. Dried. however, the formula sticks for a no fading or migrating of any kind!

It really all comes down to the smell here, ladies. Lovers of the perfume will absolutely enjoy this. The lotion indeed is expensive, but it's super moisturizing, leaves a soft linger scent, and it's a huge bottle! However, I just can't get myself to like smell. I'm getting dish washing liquid and powder mix, and I'm just not a fan!

At drugstore prices, I prefer this lipstick much more that those I can get off the shelves! ELF has outdone themselves with the preservatives and paraben free formula that also includes amazing color, smooth application, and long wear that moves with my lips! Ripe Rose is a matte lipstick, but is still moisturizing. No. I am not lying. And the soft rose color is a wonderful compliment to any day to night look. Hallelujah!
