Beauty Product Reviews

A great boost in any season

I love this stuff. I got a tiny version of it with the chocolate bronzer to give it a try. After moving to New York from LA I was basically traumatized by how green I was without a tan. I wish I could rock being fair like snow white, but not in the cards. I love using this under my foundation. Not only does it contribute SPF coverage but it also adds a golden bronze from within...which sounds ridiculous. But it's true! The bronzing is very natural and alone or with foundation it brings up your natural (but bronzier) skin tone through your foundation. It's hard to explain but I love it. Sometimes I mix it with my moisturizer (clinique) to make it last longer!

another win for too faced palettes

This summer eye collection is the most fun of all the too faced eye collections. I'm usually a little timid with bright colors and have prayed at the church of smokey eye for quite some time. This palette has beautiful spring colors that inspired me to experiment a little and try some new stuff! As always, Too Faced makes high quality shadows that are beautiful together or mixed and matched.

Too faced kicks the Urban decay Naked palette to the curb!

Plain and simple this palette is so user friendly, it's really for everybody. I absolutely love collecting the too faced palettes and have purchased this one, the naked eye (twice!), smokey and matte. I can't get enough! Because I'm more inclined to go for a grey smokey eye over a brown I wasn't that enthusiastic about this one at first. I often used it on other people though. This fall I got more into experimenting with browns and the different levels of chocolate brown (from day use to glam) are so user friendly and beautiful on any eye color or complexion. I stay away from sparkles typically but these colors are sexy and pretty not overdone and flashy. I think the range that these colors offer is phenomenal. My mom usually hates to wear makeup so I always use this palette on her, but it always makes a great eye for my night out. I would suggest this palette for any makeup beginner, a sage professional or somebody that likes a more natural look.

I had the original and this one is even more usable!

I had the original smokey eye palette which I loved. However, some of the smaller colors were less usable, bright greens and blues. For someone who shys away from "fun" colors it was nice to have these on hand in case I was feeling adventurous. This palette is even more usable. I love to mix and match the too faced palettes and I find that all of these colors crossover nicely with the naked palette and the natural palette. You can never go wrong with a smokey eye and too faced shadows are pigmented and beautiful.

A bargain for smooth hair

I just got this product today and I haven't used it more than once, but so far I love it! I get keratin treatments every four months or so but I haven't gotten one since I went to school on the east coast 5 months ago. I have VERY curly hair. I used to chemically straighten it every six months and I thought keratin would be a good compromise while I was growing out my natural hair. Right now it can get puffy and frizzy and this has helped so far. Also it smells great. I use it with the organix aragon oil. I'm hoping some people's complaints of dry hair doesn't happen to me.

Best in the business. Cult classic for a reason

I am SUPER finicky about stuff on my lips. Most products drive me crazy. They fade, peel off or dry out my lips. Not Fresh. This is the best. This year sephora was giving out mini versions for their birthday gifts and I was thrilled. Great by itself or under lip color. My boyfriend claims it smells like fruit loops (I think it smells like yummy sugary lemony). A must buy!

great buy, worth the money

I love this velvet gloss pencil in New Lover. I got a smaller version of it in a sephora gift bag and I will definitely repurchase. New lover is a pigmented pinkish red but still soft enough to wear during the day, and layer at night for more of a pop. I sometimes use it as a liner for a pigmented lip gloss and sometimes wear it solo.

I got two !

I keep one at my house and one at my boyfriends because it has the perfect array of colors to create a beautiful light smokey day eye or a sultry darker eye for evening. If I could take one eye shadow palette on a trip this would always be it.

A great primer

I've never used it alone without makeup but it does create a beautiful base for makeup. I had a go to primer and I got this one as a gift at sephora. It fills in huge pores and makes your skin velvety and flawless before makeup.

Classic Scent

I got the roller ball because I wasn't ready to commit to the price tag for the bigger bottle. Now I wish I had it in a spray. It's a classic scent that hits citrus and jasmine notes (which I love). My go-to perfumes are usually Michael Kors, but this one does the trick. Ready for the bigger spray bottle :)
