YOU NEED THIS IN YOU MORNING ROUTINE!

This depuffs and instantly wakes up my eyes. I have insomnia, so most of the time I'll be awake but my eyes won't. This solves that problem. The metal ball thing feels nice as well. It can be a bit of a pain to squeeze the product out of the tube, but no big deal. I also love that the packaging doesn't claim to banish dark circles since this isn't what it is intended to do. I don't think I'll ever go without this product.

Irritation banished. Dark Circles NOT!

I bought a 0.5 oz tube of this. I immediately loved the texture of this. It smells like candied coffee. It softens and moisturizes my eye area. I have extremely sensitive eyes, so this calms them down after taking off my eye makeup. However, I have deep set eyes and blue vein dark circles. This does not help with the wrinkles or dark circles I get from having deep set eyes. I'm only 17! I also have insomnia though... It's still a great product for keeping my eyes smooth and irritation free. I would buy another tube of this just for how much it soothes my sensitive skin after taking off my makeup.

You can still get this online at Sephora and Tarte!

I just got my order today. I've been playing around with it. All the colors are amazingly pigmented. All of them blend and apply wonderfully, even the mattes! The only problem is that all the shadows and face powders are so loosely packed that there is a horrible amount of fallout in the pan as well as with applying them. It's only a small issue, but since they are expensive brand shadows I would expect better. The face powders are amazing as well. They're just like what I've swatched at Sephora or Ulta. I wish the little clutch bag had a detachable chain. I'll just rip it off most likely. The gloss is good. I'm not big on glossy lips, but it felt moisturizing and plumping. Overall, I think I got a good deal. I'm happy that I get to try several products.

Disney Princess Lips magic lip tint!

I have the shade Enchanted. I love it! I wear it over a matching rose lip liner, and it feels like lip balm on my lips. The color is a beautiful kind of Disney Princess lip color. I naturally have very pink pigmented lips, so this adds to the color. The tint or stain lasts for hours. It never feels flaky or drying. Even with drinking water throughout wearing the tint, it didn't budge. The product also lasts a long time, the money won't be wasted. I'd say the only thing that would take it off through the day is eating. I will definitely be purchasing some more shades.

Best Foundation I've Ever Tried!

Finally a real long lasting foundation! I have very oily/combination skin. This goes on beautifully over oil or dry patches in my opinion. It's mouse like texture leaves a satin, not quite matte, feel to the skin. It's breathable. I wore this for 9 hours and it still looked flawless. I did not have to touch up with setting the foundation with the pressed powder from Tarte. My skin didn't look shiny the whole time. Finally I can go crazy with the highlight! I also wore this for 13-14 hours, it still held just as great; it did start to settle into some of the dry parts of my skin. It was not noticeable unless looking up close. That happening AFTER 12 hours is amazing. My skin doesn't feel gross at the end of the day from wearing it. I'm in the second shade, ivory. I have very neutral toned pale skin. It can go with yellow or pink undertones depending on how strong it is. In the sun I can see that it's a tiny tad bit too pink. It's probably only noticeable to me! This goes on flawless full coverage with a stippling brush. It also is a great texture to sheer it down with moisturizer. I'm glad to pay about $40 for this because it works amazingly and you get almost 2 oz. Double the amount of any other high or low end foundations.

Horrible Lipstick!!

Now, I haven't tried others in this line, but this Hippie Chic lipstick is awful. Sure, it's creamy, but it applies patchy. The only thing matte about it is the lack of shine or glitter. It feels more like a cream lipstick. I tried it over liner, lip primer, and it still wouldn't apply right. I just couldn't get the thing to work. This is probably my first miss with NYX.

Inky Black!

This is the blackest eyeliner I have. I love using it as a base for my eyeshadows because it won't crease! It's great to have for a smoked out winged liner because the black is so intense. It's creamy, smooth, and easy to work with. Once it sets it isn't moving. I just wish it would stay in my waterline, but then again UD pencils don't even work for me.

Good quality.

I got a sample of this with my order. This is a great setting powder for my foundation. It keeps my face flawless and reduces my shine throughout the day to about half. However, the claim for buildable coverage is a bit ambitious. I tried this alone and it took a lot of buffing and powder to get my face halfway evened out. If you're a person that doesn't have any skin redness it might do you fine. It matches my skin really well; I'm shocked it's not the lightest they have! Either way, it's still a great powder. I'd definitely repurchase it.

It's worth the $20.

I got a sample of this in a kit, and I fell in love. I was hoping I wouldn't because of the price. It lengthens, separates, and gives a fair amount of volume. I already have long lashes, so this makes me look like I'm wearing some falsies. It technically isn't waterproof, but I cried in this mascara, and it didn't budge! It's also very easy to remove. I will purchase a full size if I can't find a cheaper, just as great mascara.

One of the best primers!

Vee, the Glamour Doll Eyes owner, made these in two forms: Vegan and Non Vegan. Not only is there an option for Vegans, but they are amazing! I tried the brown (vegan) one before it was reformulated, I think I got a bad tin. Anyways, Vee wanted me to try the one she made for a Valentine's set, the pink (non vegan) one. I did and fell in love! It's smooth creamy and keeps my shadows locked in place all day. I can even sleep in my eye makeup and I'll wake up with it almost in tact! (I know that's not healthy) These tins cost $11 and will literally last you a year if not more. It's a great buy. I have overly oily lids deep set set eyes, my shadows don't crease or fade. (Unless it's a bad quality shadow). The customer service is amazing with Vee. She's always thinking about her customers.
