I use this EVERY DAY!!!

This stuff is AMAZING to be a drugstore tinted moisturizer! IT's non-comedogenic and for an acne-prone chick like me.. that means the world! I've been able to wear this stuff every day without breakouts, excess oil, or makeup meltdown.

Coverage is medium.... It'll give you more flawless skin, but won't cover up your acne/ scars/ dark circles. I just use this with a little concealer where needed, set with a powder, and I'm good to go! It's on sale right now at CVS, otherwise it's about $14 a bottle! Kind of pricey for a drugstore product, but this isn't your normal drugstore product, ya know?!

FYI for anyone who is my skintone... I'm light/medium and this stuff blends like a dream!

Drugstore is making a comeback!

This eyeshadow palette is awesome for someone who doesn't know how to create the perfect smoky eye! There's step-by-step placement of each color that is a part of the flag! This palette is VERY shimmery, but it's still pigmented! Sometimes it seems like companies go for shimmer to cheapen the product, but the color still shines through!

The only con to this palette is the fact that all the colors on the outside of the flag are so small that it makes it hard to get your brush in there without mixing the colors. Other than that, I say this palette is definitely worth trying!!

Great quality... As to be expected of Urban Decay

Got these on sale at Hautelook, and I gotta say.. I would've paid full price for them!!!!

They're very pigmented and have a wonderful wear time! I had them on all day and didn't experience creasing or meltdown, period! The pencils are very soft and apply like a cream shadow. Try as an eyeshadow base or use them by themselves. Urban Decay never lets me down.. I swear I love their makeup!

Dried my hair!

This product was NOT good in my hair! I tried it once and it made my hair feel extremely dry and brittle. I do not have dry hair at all, and I instantly noticed how different my hair felt. Not sure if it's just not meant for naturally curly hair, but this was a NO GO for me!! :-(

THESE HAVE SAVED MY LIFE!!!

I am allergic to a lot of drugstore lipsticks, but these don't bother my lips at all! The color payoff of the majority of these is insane!!! I have five of them and plan on writing a full review of each on my blog. If you haven't tried these yet... buy just one, first, and I guarantee you'll go back to buy every other color they have! haha

As far as being moisturizing... they are not quite a replacement for lip balm, but they aren't as drying as some lipsticks. I would still recommend putting a thin layer of lip balm under it! Other than that these things are BOMB!!!!

Bittersweet romance

As much as I LOVE this foundation.. my oily, acne-prone skin... does not! The coverage is just perfect and it is great in pictures, however, as soon as I'm done with the pictures I have to wash it off my face. I wear primer, so normally things don't break my face out easily.... this stuff just doesn't agree with me! Congrats to all the lucky ones that can wear this all day and truly enjoy it... I'm extremely jealous! haha

Meh.

I think this product has been over-hyped, imo. The waterproof formula has INCREDIBLE staying power, but the wear on it isn't so hot. I know that doesn't sound like it makes sense, but what I mean is it's hard as crap to get off with just water, however it flakes off of my eyelashes. I thought an ANT was on my eye and freaked out... that's when my relationship with falsies mascara was over.

It holds a curl very well, but it just didn't live up to my expectations after hearing so much about it! If I had to pick a waterproof drugstore mascara, I would go with CoverGirl lash blast any day!

Great Vegan Polish!!

If you are a person who is going green and vegan these are an AWESOME alternative to most nail polishes. I've found that they are longwearing, very pigmented, and they have a gorgeous assortment of colors. They are a tad more expensive because of their "green" characteristics, but if you think it's important it's definitely worth it! Start off with one color... I promise you'll love it!

How did I ever live without you

These are my world! The convienient case that these come in is so cute! When you notice you are getting oily, just LIGHTLY pat the sheet on your face and you will see it turn a light blue color.... That's how you know it's soaking up the oil. I use these whether I'm wearing makeup or not! I usually just buy the CVS brand to save a couple pennies... Works just as good!

Never know what you're gonna get!

I have about 4 of these nail polishes and each of them seems to have a different formula. Sometimes they have awesome color payoff & sometimes they're the furthest thing from being opaque! Sometimes they are very streaky or clumpy and it makes putting on an even coat very difficult.

Either way, the polish is only $2.80, so if you don't mind taking a little more time to polish your nails these are great! If you're an impulse shopper like me you won't have much regret after picking these up while waiting in the checkout line! Lol just be sure to put a good base & top coat on because these babies WILL chip!

They also have an awesome array of colors which is a definite plus!
