I ADORE this product! Like other CARGO products, you get a ton for your money (have had this for months and have hardly made a dent in the tin). The color is matte so it's easy to give a natural color, for day wear or to layer with a highlighter or shimmery product. The tin is large enough that you can use just one side for a certain color (one end of the color is more peachy, the other more beige/tan) if you desire tan, or if you are using it as a true blush. It layers well for added pgment without looking cakey. I have a fair complexion and find it to be flattering and natural - however use a light hand or you will end up with terracotta cheeks.

I am a liquid liner junkie - I have tried dozens of brands from all price points yet for over a decade I keep coming back to Maybelline UltraLiner. The brush is soft enough that I can get a variety of line thicknesses within one stroke, but firm enough that I hardly make mistakes or spatter. The product is waterproof, sweatproof, cryproof and leaves a glossy shine even when dry. Though it is waterproof, it comes off easily with soap and warm water. I wear contacts and have allergies, yet this product has never caused irritation. It dries at a normal speed, but slow enough that you can always mattify or colorize it by pressing shadow into it while damp (fun to do with metallic shadows). Product lasts forever (longer than the 3 months you should keep it) and the price is fantastic. Cannot rave enough!

I adore this product - it applies evenly, doesn't dry out the lips, gives a good shot of color with shine and a bit of transparency. Almost gives the effect of a lipstick over a balm. Sheer enough that I can apply without a mirror, but enough pigment that it really isn't a typical lipgloss. A wonderful transition product for gloss junkies who are trying to go with the trend of classic lipsticks for this season.

Thickness, length, no clumps, holds the curl from my Shu Eumura curler... and yes people have commented on my lashes for the first time ever since I switched. Only problem? Less than three months, often less than two months and the firmula gets gummy and thick and you have to toss the bottle. Sort of hard to stomach with such a price tag. However the results for that handful of weeks makes it darn near worth it....

The color is very faint (I have Tint which is pink), the shimmer is layerable - one light swipe for a daytime flow, a heavier hand and you can be a disco ball. However the color still stays very light so it is easy to layer with other products. I find this product crumbles easily - one swipe with a soft brush and I am left with crumbled product all over. Besides that, the packaging is easy to use (clear screw top), the product lasts through the day and is very versatile.
