I think MAC lipglasses are really pretty. They make a big range of colors and last for a good amount of time - maybe 4 hours at most before you have to reapply. They can be sticky and I'm not sure if it's just my lips because I always apply some lip conditioner before lip gloss - does the formula cause peeling? :\ Total turnoff for lipgloss... and sometimes the tube looks weird.. like its settling.
I love these! They are incredibly long-lasting and pigmented. For days I know I'll be out and about, I'll use it. I could probably work out and sweat bullets with it on and not budge, but I would rather not work out with makeup on. Be careful not to apply too much because they take awhile to dry - especially if you have awkward lids like I do. I have one double and one... that's in-between mono and double. LOL.
It covers well (usually a pump all over my face will do), mattifies my face, long lasting - but what I don't like about it is the smell and it accentuates any dry spots you have on your face. Not too sure if I'll buy it again. I've already had it for a year or so and I'm still not done with it.
I was so disappointed in this quad =( The colors were sheer and felt chalky. I had to keep packing it on to get any of the colors to show and then all my effort was wasted when it started to crease and got all muddy. I would not recommend anyone to buy this quad - wasn't even worth the $1 I paid for. I think I'll try others eventually, maybe after I actually finish an eyeshadow ._.
The pigmentation of this palette throughout is very good! Highly recommended if you don't own neutrals, and it is a convenient palette to own since it isn't that bulky compared to others and it has 12 lovely shadows. The range of colors is good for a subtle look to a dark, smokey eye, all definitely dupeable. The finishes also vary - I do wish there were more mattes since most of the Urban Decay shadows are shimmery or have a metallic finish to them.
I enjoyed this palette, but I felt I had too many palettes - especially neutral colors - so I sold mine off to someone who would enjoy it to its full potential!
Best blush ever! You only need a little bit for each swipe because it's sooooo pigmented and it lasts pretty much 8 hours for me. It will probably take me at least a year to hit pan.. The packaging is sleek compared to other companies, and it has a mirror! I own Immoral and Seduce and would love to own more but I highly doubt I'll ever finish one. They're also hard to get if not for Hautelook or other discounted high end brands websites or blog sales.
I saw that Raeview on youtube said that this pencil was a dupe for my beloved Anatasia brow pencil, and was she right.. I've been using it at least everyday - or whenever I go out - for the past couple months and it does the job of filling my brows and making them look natural - even when my brows are looking a little.... unattractive.
Out of all the UD palettes I've bought, I think this has to be my favorite. I like how the palette offers a variety of neutral, bolder/brighter, and darker shades for smokey eyes. Each of the eyeshadows are velvety, blend wonderfully, and are incredibly pigmented. The fall out of the more glittery shadows is improving compared to previous palettes as well!
I bought this as a back-up for my Shu Uemura lash curler, and I say it works at level with it, especially since it's only $1. The sponge is prone to fall out easily. Mine hasn't fallen out completely but the sides have popped up a little. I just push it back in and it stays there. It is bulkier compared to my Shu Uemura..
Maybe it's just my oddly long eyelashes for an Asian American person that make this lash curler work for me :x
I just got this in the email, and I am sooo in love with it. The smell - oh my goodness, it reminded me of rice pudding. I've been craving it so bad. My skin immediately was softer. Definitely moisturizing! And unlike other scrubs, the rice feels really gentle on the skin - it may only feel rough if you use hard hand motions. I haven't used it enough for the firming and antiwrinkle properties, but I'm sure it balanced out my complexion after one use!
