LOVE IT

(I have normal skin) This primer has worked great for me. It is so light weight, silky, smooths out the skin nicely, and really holds the foundation in place all day. I normally dont use a primer but during the summer I get sweaty and I need one because my foundation tends to melt away or get wiped away. I noticed that it really did keep my foundation on my face throughtout the day and when I wiped/dabbed sweat off my face only the sweat came off and the paper would remain without my foundation color on it. People with oily skin tend to have a problem with this but its works like a charm for normal to dry skin and its great for summer when your sweaty. MY ONLY CON IS THAT ITS TOO SMALL!!!!! its 6 bucks for not even a full half ounce (its 0.49 oz) I wish ELF would bump down the price to $3 because I just think $6 is too much for this little tiny bottle that does not last at all, you only need one pump to get the job done but it runs out basically with a couple pumps. If anything they should sell it at Target because it just not worth it to pay for shipping =/ *get it when its half off or with a promo code*

Waterproof one

I own this retractable eyeliner in the waterproof version. It is amazing. I have been on the search for a good waterproof eyeliner that would tight line my eyes and would be soft, last all day, not smear or smudge, and would really be WATERPROOF. I have tried many drug store eyeliners and the UD 24/7 liner. Its the top of the line drug store waterproof eyeliner and its even better then my UD 24/7 liner because my UD one smears and does not last all day. The rimmel one never has to be sharpened and it really is great and affordable ($4-5) I can not rave enough about it (and it comes with a built in smudger and sharpener on one end). I recommend it!!

This was a total miss for me... (my normal lashes: are medium length and pretty thick) so normally most masacaras get the job done so i decided to try this since everyone was raving about it. This masacara sucked!!! this didnt do nothing for my lashes... It clumped up and it FLAKED big time (evertime i apply it peices fly all over my face). If the head of the brush was not movable I would have gotten some good length out of this at least because I have tried other mascaras with the same shape brush and I liked them but since its movable it doesnt allow me to pull my thick lashes up, instead, my lashes grab and pull the brush down. It was a waste of money for me :(

Dolce Pink #01

First of all let me start by saying this blush is beautifully pink...its a nice shade of pink with a golden glow!! Pros: smooth, blends nicely, good pigmentation, no smell, not to expensive Cons: lasting power (not all day) and its VERY shimmery =/ (might be to shimmery for some ppl or for everday)

Packaging is not something I like but the product itself is good. The case can be hard to open at times. It comes with a mirror and a brush (which is kind of useless because it doesnt apply the blush as evenly or truly colored as an actual blush brush does) but if you like SHIMMER blushes this one is for you!!

This product is actually not bad for its price. It actually makes my foundation and powder last longer then it normally would without out this spray. How I use it: I apply my concealer, foundation, setting powder, blush, then Spray this setting spray over my face (about 3 sprits- about 12 inch away from my face).

Pros: its cheap, a little goes a long way, it does set face makeup!! Cons: it has a hint of smell but goes away after a couple seconds, the pump sprays way to much- so make sure it at least 12 inchs away from ur face, and it leaves your face wet for a min so just let it air dry or blot slighty with a brush (dont rub)

*As far as my eyes go I never have a problem with my eyeshaows fading ( because my primers do a good job for me) so I dont spray it over my eye makeup but because it is watery and alot comes out, I can see why Emily (previous comment) had a problem with it making her mascara run... so just keep that in mind, but for just face makeup it works good!!!

Poor Quality

=[ so this was a total miss for me!!!! The colors are to powdery, the lasting power is not good, and their not easily blendable.... the only "OK" color in the trio is the dark blue!! I would not recommend it and I would not purchase it again. Thank goodness when I bought it that it was 50% off lol

Silent Treatment and Walking on Eggshells

LOVE these two trios. Good pigmintation, soft, smooth, blendable, and stay on all day with a good base such as UDPP. The one thing I do not like is the highlight color in the walking on eggshells trio- its a little to powdery for me but other then that these two a good trios to own- very affordable, and simple to use!!! Walking on eggshells is more of an everyday look, and Silent Treatment is more of a night time kinda smokey look =]

246 Park Ave

I only own one of these quick dry ones...but I love the one I have in Park Ave...its a greyish tuape-purple tone nailpolish (in the picture it looks more tuape I dont know why), creamy and glossy with no sparkles. It took two coats to get the color. I use it with a seal coat over it which makes it last about a week on my finger nails and about two weeks on my toenails. The good thing is its cheap, it cost about $1.72 at walmart =] so you cant go wrong for trying them out!!

112 Times Square Tangerine Creme

I Love these nail polishes....their CHEAP (about a buck at walmart)... last a long time... they have great bright color selection. My current fav for summer is times square tangerine- its a creamy, glossy, nice bright coral-orangy color, the only thing I dont really like is that it is a bit runny but it dries quickly and it does last a while on your nails without chipping. They recently changed their packaging and it looks better then it did before (when the NYC logo was colorful, now its in black and simple...way better). On me they last about 2-3 weeks which is great, I use a seal top coat with them. I also own Fushia Shock 111 in the old packaging, Big Apple Red 131 in the old packaging, Charming Rose 126 in the old packaging)

WOW

Just as good as my Urban Decay primer potion =] for only $1 it is amazing...it holds my eyeshadow colors longer and it doesnt crease on my lids either...I LOVE IT!!
