Lovely powder for daily, light coverage

I don't use foundation or concealer, I only use this powder to just even my skin and give a bit of coverage. I find that it's absolutely perfect for me, as it's light and gives a lovely finish to my skin, and does not get cakey or settle in wrinkles. I would absolutely recommend this!

Really like this!

I picked up the purple (Hi-res) and was very pleased. After one coat, it was fairly opaque, but after two coats it was looking really splendid. In low light, it just looks like a lavender with silver sparkles, but in direct light (especially sunlight) it comes alive! I wasn't expecting much from a drugstore holo polish, but this was really impressive. I thought it looked spectacular. However, it did not last very long (granted, I do a lot with my hands, and polish tends to chip quickly) and only survived about 2 days of wear. For the low price, I would recommend this polish, though I have only tried the one color.

Perfect base for glitter

The eyeshadow sealer by LA splash is a wonderful glitter glue for your eyes! I smooth a bit on over my primer, wait JUST a second, then pat on (eye safe!!) glitter over top with my finger. I've taken off half a star because there's a lot of glitter fallout, and it doesn't seem to want to last for more than 4 hours without creasing a bit on me, but it really does grab and hold the glitter for when you want super sparkle eye looks! This is an affordable product, and it works well in my opinion. Just make sure you grab the product you're aiming for, at my Ulta, there were a number of products that were different but looked just like this in the LA Splash display, so be sure to read the label!

Really great base, very worth the price

This is a lovely sticky base (NOT primer! Use a primer underneath this) for glittery, complex eyeshadows (or regular eyeshadows that you want to make really POP). This does not work well with matte shades, however. I've taken off half a star because I sometimes find PE hard to blend with, but it is workable. There are many tutorials and guides about how to use this, so I won't bother writing one here. Essentially, apply a small SMALL amount over your primer, allow to dry to a tacky finish (you'll really feel when it's tacky), then apply your shadow of choice over top. This does a great job of making glitter stick, though I wouldn't use it for pure glitter, myself, and it makes shadows really bright, as though they were foiled. That's great for me, because I'm honestly lazy when it comes to shadows and I never feel like really foiling my eyeshadows. Highly recommended, all the positive reviews of this stuff are true!

Perfect liner!

(I own the black, for reference) This is it, I don't need to look for more liners. I use this on my upper lashline regularly. It goes on dark in one stroke, stays on without moving or smudging ALL day, and I even have to rub at it quite a bit with makeup remover to actually get it to come off, which I don't mind but it may be an annoyance to some.

The one con with this liner: I was hoping this would finally be the one that I could wear on my waterline without it running into the corners of my eyes within an hour, and being entirely nonexistent within two hours. However, that was not the case. This one actually did last a little longer on the waterline than other liners I've tried, but just not long enough for me to bother. It seems I just can't wear anything there, and I have given up. However, if you don't have waterline troubles, or if you're just looking for something for the lashline, this is THE ONE. It's super opaque, goes on easily and dries quick. Perfect for me, and really inexpensive. 100% worth it.

Good stuff

I'm not a huge nail polish buff, so I can't speak from much experience here. I have one glitter polish from HC and I am very happy with it. The concentration of glitter is nice, not too clumpy, and easy to layer. It wears like any other polish that I'm used to. I'm happy with this, and I love the little rings that come with them! For the price, these are a good buy.

Nice, great price

This is a light cream colored pressed powder with gold glitter/shimmer. It's pretty basic, and as an inexpensive product it is a nice quality, and the packaging is great for what you pay. This is nothing spectacular, and I like to use it with Benefit's High Beam to give it more oomph! but in general, I'm satisfied with this, and would recommend it to someone if they're curious.

Great shadows

These are all you'd expect and more from an indie company. The colors are genuinely different and go beyond what you usually find in indie eyeshadows, in my opinion. All the colors I've tried have really been spectacular. Their mini size is a generous sample, and comes in a 3 gram jar for $1.50 while the full sizes come in 5 gram jars packed full without sifters. Seriously, tons of product. I find that these work better over Pixie Epoxy or another sticky base. I am really happy with all the shadows I've tried so far.

Middle of the road

This is an alright glitter liner. The brush is nice, and works well. The product itself is also pretty good. The glitter is a bit sparse for my liking, and to get a good concentration you need to go over it more than once, but for the price, I'm satisfied.

Wonderful liner! I love it.

I have Onyx, the black with silver sparkles. It's just wonderful. The brush is thin and creates precise lines, however I do need to go over it more than once to create a solid mark. Despite that, I am in love with this liner. I don't need any other liquid liner, this one has it all for me, and it has some sparkle to it! Really great and absolutely worth the money.
