Mixed feelings!!!
Straight up: love it and hate it. Let me explain: The benetint is a great color and easy to layer, but the applicator brush is really annoying. The gloss is a good shine, but goopy, and the applicator doesn't pick up enough on it's way out of the tube, so I have to put on extra layers for a decent shine. I carry the wand in my purse now and then, but more as a security thing and less as a "I'm-going-to-re-apply-later" thing. Might be repurchasing… I just don't know!
It's okay.
I was really hoping for more "oomf" from this one, but the brush is just too thin, I think. I was looking to use this for an everyday, natural look with my blue/grey eyes, but I found I was putting on at least five layers… for a day…time…look… Exactly. Will not be repurchasing.
Love the SPF & color!
I love this lip balm! I've had mine for so long now (I've actually misplaced it at the moment… so sad)! Love the SPF and the color, perfect for day or night.
Hard to blend, not great colors
So blah. I've had this concealer for a while, and I really kept trying to make it work for a while, but I've finally moved on. The "paste" is very sticky, and although Fair was the closest color to my skin tone, I found it hard to blend in. The packaging is also not so great - it comes with a small, plastic spoon, which, I suppose is sanitary, but it's larger than the tub, so it was annoying to clean and store it elsewhere. Will definitely not be repurchasing or recommending.
I'll never use another mascara again…!
Wow. That's really all I can say. This mascara is amazing! Mascara is my favorite beauty product, and I've had so many over the years, but never have I found one this great. Although my lashes are on the longish side, the volume and curl that this mascara adds is unreal. One layer is perfect for a natural day look, and three tops is great for night. The rounded tip provides easy access to hard-to-reach corners and releases those unruly clumps. The only downside for me is the smell, which is tolerable, but it's very strong. When I first started using this in May, I found it was hard to take off with the makeup remover I was using then (Almay oil-free pads), but after a friend insisted I switch to a liquid makeup remover [Clinique (about time, right?)], I found it very easy to remove. I've been using Fresh's Soy Facial Cleanser for about a week now and the mascara is easily removed without makeup remover! Will definitely repurchase.
Favorite powder (translucent)!
I'm so happy to be writing this review because this is one of my new favorite products! I've been using this powder for about two weeks now, and I'm absolutely in love. I know it's just a translucent powder but I usually am really sensitive to powders for some reason, so I get excited when I find something that works! I love that this powder has SPF15 and is parben-, sulfate-, and fragrance-free. It comes with a small applicator, but I use a kabuki brush to apply. Packaging is sleek and gorgeous. Will definitely repurchase.
Favorite eye shadow!
This has been my go-to color for months now. It blends so well with different shades and is so smooth going on my lids. It has the perfect amount of sparkle and can definitely be used for a day or night look. I use a thin layer during the day for a more natural look and darken it up at night. WARNING: packaging is not very protective - shadow broke first time I dropped it!
