holy grail for sensitive skin!
I have sensitive, eczema-prone, oily, acne-prone skin (you read that right. Pray for me) and this cleanser is one of the best you can get from the drugstore. It leaves my skin soft and not too dry. If I'm not wearing a lot of makeup, this will get the job done. But if it's more heavy, I advise you using a makeup wipe before and after to make sure all makeup residue is gone.
Britney might be crazy, but she has a winning nose!
This one of my top three fav scents from Britney Spears. It smells soo awesome! If you can find this or the limited edition Midnight Fantasy, get it! It's money well spent. As a matter of fact, I need to pick up another bottle. It will be my third bottle!
Love these eyeshadows! I say that they rival high-end! I have about 15 of their palettes and I'm a die-hard user for life! Walking on eggshells are MAC dupes for shroom, cork, and another one, can't think of the name right now. Lol If you can get your hands on them, try to find the original 6-pan or Comfort Zone palette.
I have Peony and Papaya. I really like the shine it gives the lips and you get a good amount of product. On pigmentation, if you already have pigmented lips/line, you might have to pair this with a liner or cancel the pigmentation out with a concealer first. I must admit that I've tried other glosses for cheaper with better color pay-off. (Milani)
high-end quality at a good price
The Loreal H.I.P. line is some of the best drugstore products you can get. Rich, creamy-like consistenty and vibrant color combinations makes this line a must-have in your collection. A couple of duos are also dupes of MAC shades. I highly recommend Showy, Flare, and Poppy.
Holy Grail for oily skin beauties on a budget!
I have oily skin. I mean SUPER OILY SKIN. I mean after 30 minutes of washing my face I can take some chicken and fry it on my face. I tried MAC's studio fix fluid and it broke down in two hours. Loreal True Match? Same thing. Whoever created Revlon Colorstay, I truly thank them. I can wear it alone and get 6-8 hours before it breaks down and I get oily, or with unflavored Milk of Magnesia as a base and it the wear jumps to 10-12 hours. (These observations were made in the middle of summer). If you can't afford Estee Lauder Double Wear or MUFE Mat Velvet +, try Colorstay. I promise you won't go wrong.
I really don't understand the hype. One the plus side, it gives polish a wonderful patent-leather wet look and it dries very quickly. On the minus side, when this top coat dried, it pulled my polish from the edge which made it chip easier and faster. Another mishap is that the Seche Vite will make your polish completely peel off. So, its a hate/love relationship with me when it comes to this product.
