Great Neutral Shades

I have the shades Tapestry Taupe and Champagne and they are BEAUTIFULLY pigmented!! They're so rich and shimmery! However the less neutral shades I've tried didn't work out as well. Forever Fig was a shade that I tried which was later discontinued. That one had terrible payoff and it was chunky and gross :/ it was deceiving because it looked sooo pretty in the pan but did not wear well on my lids with a primer AND a cream base. However Champagne is a beautiful highlight or lid shade and the taupe is universally flattering on all eye colors/skin tones!

Bad Color Payoff

I like the Cover Girl lip stain that has a doe-foot applicator and comes with a moisturizing topcoat. That being said, I do not like this product because the color payoff is terrible!!! Hardly any color goes onto your lips with this. It might be appropriate for younger girls that don't need intense pigments in their makeup. It doesn't seem to last like a real lip stain should blah :( it's a neat product idea to have a lip stain formula in a marker-type package but it did not work out for me. There are many other lip stain options in the drugstore that are affordable and work well.

Nice, User Friendly

I would not use this product without topping it with a regular powder eyeshadow but the colors are very pretty. They're all a little shimmery if that's what you like, I know I do! They have great staying power and can be used as nice cream bases. I like that they have doe-foot applicators.

Worth the $18

You know when you rub your finger in some eyeshadow, then swatch it on the back of your hand? Good eyeshadow will look decent with a single finger swatch, but this primer makes it look like it how it does in the pan/packaging. It's AMAZING. It grabs the shadow and makes the color POP. It also is very smoothing on the lids and "insures" that the shadow stays. It doesn't feel oily, which is great. I also enjoy Urban Decay primer potion like any other beauty, and have found that Elf essential eyelid primer and NYX HD eyeshadow primer yield good results as well! They, however, do not yield the kind of magic that UDPP or Too Faced shadow insurance does!!!

Creamy, Nice

I really like these lipsticks! They are fairly inexpensive, feel creamy and great on the lips and come in 72 colors!? That's a ton of color selection right there. I love Revlon overall as a brand, I think they are very classy and offer great quality.

The only thing lacking with this product is the staying power--it doesn't stay toooo long but it does feel great on the lips and even has some sheen to it. But the do offer some matte shades within this line, and other variations as well.

Best Red Lipstick Ever, Hands Down

This is the BEST red lipstick that the drugstore has to offer!!! Without a doubt. It is a deep red (but not too deep) with blue-ish undertones, and it can work great on different skin tones. It's perfect for my yellow/olive, medium skintone. I also saw it on my very fair-skintone friend and she looked great in it, too!

There are SO many shades that this line of lipsticks offers. I also love Born With It (great nude shade). The texture is just awesome and the staying power is pretty good from what I can tell. It works best and doesn't feather or run if you use a lipliner underneath. I like Jordana Easyliner for lips!

I questioned if this would be the right shade for me, but I looooove it very much! I'm currently wearing it in my profile photo, hehe. :)

Yum

I have this in the lemon flavor/scent. I LOVE it! It is extremely hydrating and moisturizing. It is a little pricey, but it lasts a while and it comes in such cute packaging. I enjoy this brand and when I wear the lip balm, I really do feel like my lips are under the "evoluation of smooth" :P

Most Colors are Good, Some Not so Much

I have this in Timbleberry, Savage, Oasis, I Miss You, and a few other colors. I really enjoy all the colors that don't have glitter. The glitter nail polishes take a ton of layering to get the actual glitter effect, but that's expected with $1.99 nail polish, right? So the nail polish is excellent for its pricing.

I did experience chipping after a few days, however the application of the polish was not streaky and gave off wonderful color (the ones without glitter, that is)

I find a huge selection of these at my Walgreens and I do really like them! They have TONS of really fun colors! :)

Cute and Feels Really Nice on the Lips

I haven't tried using this product over a lipstick yet, but I have worn it by itself and I looooove it! I can't really say that it lasts for SIX HOURS, but when do products ever last as long as the hour claim says they do? Except for maybe Revlon ColorStay foundation (24 hours), haha.

I have this in Eternal Flirt which is an adorable pink with a hint of berry color. I love it. The texture of this gloss is definitely my favorite because it's soooo smooth on the lips without being oily.

The color payoff isn't exactly what I was expecting, but I still really enjoy it and it does have a lot of pretty shine.

Awesome purple lipstick!

I cannot believe the color selection that NYX has to offer. Seriously!? It's just amazing how many different round lipsticks there are to choose from, or the single eyeshadows, or the jumbo cream shadow pencils! I'm in LOVE with Nyx!!! :) Anyways, these lipsticks feel super moisturizing, which I love. The color payoff is excellent and I only needed a couple of strokes to get the full color on my lips. It feels so silky smooth, not cakey or too thick at all.
