Average.

The only thing that I like about this product is that it does a decent amount of moisturizing. I don't like that there is only three shades. The light to medium doesn't quite workout for me because it has warm undertones, so my face tends to look like I've been out in the sun a little too long. I also don't like that it barely has any coverage and that it has a very low SPF. For me, it is not worth purchasing.

DOES NOT SET YOUR MAKE UP.

I was looking for cheap loose powder that would help set my makeup, and what i got was cheap loose powder. The price is what got me to try out the product, but honestly I expected more. I used this on top of my revlon colorstay foundation and it makes the wear last for a shorter time. My face is gets oily very quick, and after 2 hours i felt the need to reapply the powder. I would not buy it again

Not all the rage, but pretty decent.

The Good: 1. PRETTY COLORS - the palette I got had really nice colors that compliment each other and are great especially for a natural look 2. SMOOTH - this eyeshadow is very silky and feels nice to the touch 3. AFFORDABLE - very inexpensive

Why I personally find it average: 1. SHIMMER & NOT THAT PIGMENTED - I'm not too big on the shimmer, especially for this palette. It may be pigmented, but after blending it out, the colors kind of fade away and blend with the more dominant ones (like the taupe color which is the third one). The whitish color has a pink tint once you blend it out which can be a little unflattering for highlights. The pink champagne color may also be washed out if your skin tone does not compliment it. 2. CREASES - the eyeshadow is so smooth that it creases, even with primer. When you try to build the color, it gets too much that the product starts to crease on the lids 3. TOO FRAGILE - the eyeshadow breaks easily. Maybe it's a fail in packaging, but I traveled with it once, and one of the colors completely broke apart and was no longer usable

Love it!

This has got to be my favorite drugstore foundation.

Why I love it: 1. FULL COVERAGE - one layer will do just about anybody, two will do most people with really dark acne scars. 2. LONG LASTING - well, longer than most foundations. Obviously if you're sweating profusely, this is going to start 'melting'. Otherwise, when good weather is present, this will seriously last most of the day. 3. LIGHTWEIGHT FORMULA - the formula is very light and it does not feel like you're packing a lot of makeup on. 4. VERY AFFORDABLE - it can range from $8-$11 (US) depending on your area

Why some will NOT love it: 1. LACKING SHADES - there isn't a big selection when it comes to shade. Most of them look closely alike, and even so people with yellow undertones will find it hard to match. I picked out the nude color and had to use the REVLON mineral finishing powder in suntan matte to get to my shade 2. NOT DESIGNATED FOR DIFFERENT SKIN TYPES - there is only one formula for all skin types, none specifically for oily, or normal/dry. I think people with dry skin will find it not hydrating, but if you use a good moisturizer, you should be good to go.

Does not work.

I am a big fan of olay products, but this one did not do it for me. I did not feel the difference in my face neither did I see one. The product is very creamy, and it feels like it is just sliding off your face. It does not feel like it is cleaning my face, more like staying on top of my skin. It is not really worth the price when you can get the definity wash for just a few cents more.

I love this product!

I may be overhyping this, but this product works really well for me. Before I used this product my skin felt rough, dry, and coarse. After using this one time, I felt the difference in my skin. It felt so smooth, I was amazed. What I love about this product is that it exfoliates, but the beads are so soft it doesn't hurt when you do it. Not only that, but you can also use this as a daily cleanser if you use a lot of water (dilute it when using). You only need a small amount to clean your face, so it's definitely worth the money. It is very affordable, and such a great product. The packaging is great, there is a twist cap, which is hard to explain how it works, but basically you twist, there is a hole where the product comes from, and you close. It's great because it keeps water from coming inside and product from leaking out.

Good drugstore foundation.

This product is really great and what I love about it is the formula. It has a pretty thick consistency, which can feel a little heavy, but it really does stay on longer than most drugstore foundations. The coverage is medium-full, depending on how much you build on top of it. If you have deep and dark acne scars like me, it can only do so much because it's not a miracle product, but for the most part, the thickness will fill in tiny scars and cover the dark spots. If you want to go for a flawless face, I still recommend using concealer with this product because it won't cover everything. The wear is pretty long lasting because i use the revlon colorstay mineral powder with it, so for me it can last 6-8 hours depending on the activities i do while wearing it. What I don't like so much about this product is that it does not have many color selections and it is not super blendable, so sometimes it can look off on me depending on how much i put on. (FYI, i am in 180 sand beige). Other than that, I really like this foundation

Don't expect too much.

When I first saw the commercial for this product, I thought, "I must have it!" So when I bought it, I had high hopes for it. Sadly, it was a disappointment. The product claims to show longer lashes in a few weeks time. Personally, I did not see a significant change in my lashes. The product formula was a major bust. It clumps very easily if you can't put it on right. After a few layers, right or wrong, it will clump your lashes. The brush was thin and did not volumize the lashes at all and gives your lashes a bad balance because some parts will be longer than others and it remained thin. Basically, it was not worth the money.

The name does not lie!

If you're looking for highly pigmented shadows, this is the product to go to! It is EXTREMELY pigmented, which may be too much for some people as it can create problems if you want to tone down your look. This product needs primer before it or some kind of base, as it can crease. Overall, it is a good product that is very affordable.

Great pen for lines, but not for longlasting wear.

From my experience, this pen is very good at creating lines. It is very easy to use and glides on wonderfully. The con? Well, the name suggests colorstay, but in reality, this product won't last more than 10 minutes if you don't layer many times. The color eventually fades throughout the day, but it is fairly smudge-proof. The formula is one i commend. It is better than a lot of other liquid liners (not pen liners) that I've tried, but you really have to build it to get it to a nice black color. Other than that, it makes drawing the winged eyeliner a lot easier.
