NICE AND OPAQUE

Though I hate the massive brush on these, I love the beautiful colours they come in. The formula wears really well and doesn't chip easily. The drying time is pretty decent. They are good for water marble. These are completely opaque in two coats!

GREAT COLOURS

These are really good quality and won't hurt the bank. They come in so many beautiful colours. I find the formula to be quite long lasting. I don't mind the brush. They are quite opaque and spread on the nail evenly. They are also really good for water marble!!

MY ONLY BLACK CRACKLE

I love this crackle polish. It's nice and opaque and shatters instantly. If applied with a thin coat, you get the best results. I don't often wear it, but when I do I get many compliments. I haven't bothered to buy any other black crackles because I know this one is #1! In the attached photo, I used it with China Glaze's Pink Voltage (neon).

HIT AND MISS

I love Essie's range of colours. I do have some trouble with the brush though. I do find that sometimes the sheerer colours are very difficult to get even. Their neons are awful. I do very much love the staying power on these though. They last really well and dry nice and glossy.

ONLY TOP COAT IN MY COLLECTION

I don't care to ever buy another top coat. I might get one that dries much slower for gluing nail art stuff, but beyond that, Seche Vite is the only one for me. I don't like the strong scent, but I love that it dries ultra fast and harden the polish. I like that it's very thick and can even out any nail art or crackle polish. Love forever!

ON THE FENSE

I've been using this for about a month now and I'm not quite sure how I feel about it. I haven't noticed any major differences in my skin other than a reduction in black heads. I do find it to be slightly harsh, but it doesn't sting. I like the cool feeling it gives. I don't think however I will be repurchasing.

ONLY FACE WASH THAT HAS EVER WORKED ON ME

I cannot live without this cleanser. I don't know how I ever survived without it to be honest. I have sensitive, dry combination skin and I use the oily formula.

A few years ago when I was 19, I stopped taking a certain medication and a constellation of acne formed on my forehead and it only got worse when I moved to Nicaragua. In Nicaragua, I had to use a lot of sun screen (which breaks me out like crazy) and I was exposed to dirt and dust a lot more. I tried a multitude of cleansers from different brands but nothing worked.

When I turned 20 I figured I should try Clinique because it has such a great reputation for working on sensitive skin. I was recommended the oily formula by the lady who worked at the counter. She told me to use it twice a day.

After three days of using this cleanser twice a day, the acne I had been struggling with for a year had completely disappeared. I now only use it once a day, in the morning when I'm in the shower. If I'm having a skin crisis I go back to using it twice a day. I'm now almost 22 and my acne has stayed away thanks to the continuous use of this product.

It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. It leaves a really fresh and clean feeling after rinsing. It really just cleans it but does not strip it. I can't believe the difference in my skin since I started using it. It's my holy grail!!!

MUST HAVE

I'm a bit upset to find that they are discontinuing Fabulush because that's one of my go-to summer blushes. Pearl is something I wear on a regular basis and is totally a product I will be purchasing for the rest of my life. My mom loves it too! I wish I could wear these on my lids, but alas, they are too oily, even with primer. LOVE these so much!

so amazing

I am IN LOVE with these. They are super long lasting on my oily lids, even if I don't use primer. The colours are so beautiful. I love the texture and they blend like a dream. Everyone needs at least one of these in their collection!

BRING THESE BACK!

I can't believe these were discontinued. THESE LITTLE THINGS ARE GOLDEN. Cream eyeshadow THAT SETS with BUILT IN PRIMER POTION in a LARGE VARIETY OF COLOURS. Seriously, I want more of these but alas, no more! The stay power on these is amazing, and that's saying something coming from me, someone with very oily lids. The only thing I wish were different is that they didn't all have chunky glitter in them. I'm really sad to see these go. They can be really sheer out or used very opaquely for full on colour. They also work awesome as a base for eyeshadow, especially loose eyeshadows.
