Beauty Product Reviews

Shadow, base, eyeliner all in one.

I have always loved MAC Shadesticks. I am truly heartbroken that they have discontinued many of the shades. I love using them as an eyeshadow base and on my eyes they don't crease. I get many uses out of one and they are very versatile. Eyeshadow, eyeliner, and eyeshadow base all in one. Some places you can still find a variety of the colors, and occasionally MAC re-promotes or comes out with new shade colors. So if you are at a Mac counter ask about them and try them out. You may just fall in love with them the way that I have.

Stays put all day.

One of my favorite mascaras! It is gentle enough for my contact wearing eyes. It stays put all day and adds volume and length. I don't worry about it smudging or smearing throughout the day. It comes off easily in the shower or makeup remover. You will notice it coming off like string or really long eyelashes but its not its the mascara. It's like the formula wraps around the eyelash and when it comes off it's still in the shape of your eyelashes. The one thing I wish is that there would be more in the black mascara side. I have also bought one where the mascara was all dried out. Other than that it is still one of my favorite mascaras.

I Agree, best for eyebrows!

I found an Eco-tools brush set at Walgreens a few years back and I am all about products that are made from recycled materials. I love the angled brush, I have two. One, I use for my eyebrows and the other I use with my gel liner. I have tried different angled brushes and have quite a few and this is by far my favorite!! It is eco friendly and not expensive at all!

AMAZING COLOR PAYOFF!

Great Matte/Satin shadows. Bright! Highly pigmented! A little goes a long way and the company is really big on customer service. Like other shadows the mattes do have a little fallout but its not a really a problem for me. I highly highly highly recommend this product to anyone that loves bright matte colors!

GREAT BRONZER!

I first tried the bronzing Pearls of Perfection about 6 years ago and it is still one of my all time fav bronzers. It gives you a nice even glow, a little goes a long way and it just blends nicely into my skin. It does not irritate my skin or clogs my pores. It kind or reminds me of the MAC Skinfinish powders. However these are obviously little beads. The price is affordable and depending where you get it from CVS/Walgreens/Rite-Aid you can sometimes find it BOGO or buy 1, get 1/2 off.

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

I am a huge fan of brush cleaner and disinfecting brushes. If you are a makeup artist or do other peoples makeup you should be too! I love this product a little goes a long way it does condition your brushes which actually helps your brushes stay in great shape and last longer. The one thing I wish the MAC brush cleanser had was a spray tip. Sometimes I use more than I actually need which is a complete waste if I just need to clean a few brushes. I love the way it smells, it's not strong or anything, but more of a clean soft warm scent to it. Overall an amazing product.

Great just avoid eye area.

I have been using Dermalogica for a little over 2 years now. I was first given the product when I was in Beauty School, and I instantly fell in love with the line. My skin has not looked better! The moisturizer is a light oil free moisturizer so it doesn't leave a greasy oil feeling. It's more of a light clean feeling. Now myself and a few other girls that I went to school with all had the same problem with the product. When placed around the eye area it would run into the eyes and burn. I am a contact lens wearer so this was a HUGE problem however easily fixed! :) Just avoid the eye area.

Great for people with damaged hair.

I bought this product during the summer. I am the kind of girl that is always coloring/ and bleaching my hair so I am always on the lookout for products that will help seal my cuticles and add moisture and maintain my hair color without fading. On occasion I would use this hair mask right after bleaching because that is when my hair would be the most damaged. It would feel dry and fried!! So I would use this in the shower and I instantly noticed a HUGE difference, my hair was moisturized, the brittle dry-fried feeling was gone. The most important thing for me was that it didn't leave that GROSS waxy oily hair that I absolutely hate!!!!!! Great product, it is more on the pricer side, but mos def worth the investment.

My favorite scent!

I actually received two sets of this last Christmas, one from my husband, and the other from my parents, they both said they smelled it and immediately thought of me. I find it very weird since I am soooo picky about my perfume. I instantly fell in love with it. I like to break my scents down into seasons and this is my Fall/Winter scent. The perfume to me has this seductive sultry type scent to it. It's just soo sexy and light. I always get compliments on it, and I always find myself smelling my wrists because I LOVE it that much! I love that on me the vanilla scent seems to stand out. Everyone is different and the scent will react differently to everyones body. I do recommend it, so next time you are looking for perfume, try it on, and walk around, you might just fall in love with it. I will admit that I do layer the products by using the shower gel, then lotion, and perfume, however the lotion to me doesn't really have the perfume scent that I thought it would. Overall, I love this set!!!

Not the best product for sensitive eyes!

I love trying new mascaras, and I was eager to try LashBlast when I heard so many of my friends that were head over heels for it. I however have sensitive eyes, and wear contact lenses. I decided to try the waterproof mascara because sometimes mascaras just run into my eyes throughout the day. It really is waterproof and long lasting. However, what I did notice is that it was a real struggle to take it off, usually my makeup remover, or my wipes will do the trick and if not I resort to my Lubriderm lotion. A little weird, I know but it works wonders. What happened is eyelashes kept falling out. I have noticed my lashes are a lot thinner now. I did try just the original LashBlast and I love that one, but I wont be trying the Waterproof version again. :(
