holy grail that i always come back to

I was reluctant to buy this when I did, because I just started switching my collection fully to high-end products. I really wasn't sure if this would be worth the cost, but you get an endless amount of product for the price. I have been using mine for just under a year (and nearly every day, at that) and mine has just eroded past the rounded top but isn't completely flat across it yet. Some people complain about the shimmer, which I solve by one quick tap of any brush (I've used several) and it reduces it perfectly. I leave the shimmer when I want a fuller highlight, like on the cheekbones and in the cupid's bow of the lip. It wears all day. This is absolutely gorgeous and although I end up trying other highlighters because they come in kits, etc, absolutely none come even close to this one. When I got this, I honestly felt that my overall look was taken up ten notches.

layerrrrrssss

I do not like mascara that requires 10x the effort of many faves. I bought this in a kit but really do not like it... Essentially, it's fine, but I know several that do way better for me on volume/length and although I can get there with about four coats of this one. I don't know how else I can say it: my lashes look longer, fuller, curlier, and more voluminous with much less effort by many other mascaras, so I consider this one just below average.

obsessed at first

i really liked these at first. it was an incredible deal over the normal price (this set cost me less than the price of two liners for six of them). i had first tested one out in store and really liked the gorgeous, metallic color pay-off of the purple one and it ended up lasting all day, so i grabbed the set. however, i really don't like the gritty texture of those with glitter in them (some of these colors have it) even though they seemed super creamy on the first use. also, it becomes hard to sharpen them to the perfect point to use as a liner, which is what i hoped i could use them as... maybe that was bad judgment on my point. however, these smudge very beautifully and can be used in all sorts of ways.
