The Perfect Full Coverage nude w/ a bit of shimmer
I have 3 colors: I Think Not, Ambus, and Romper Room. I love these polishes. They give full coverage in one swipe b/c the brush is so large. It holds a lot of polish so you have to make sure to "clean" the extra before going to the nail. These are very shiny, wear incredibly well and dry FAST. I have natural nails and this polish has lasted on me for a week with only minimal chipping/fading at the edges. I'm amazed! I'd love a few more colors in CK ONE Color.
Gorgeous Bright Pink
I love this color so much I have painted my brushes with it so I can identify my brushes when on location. I have 3 colors: I Think Not, Ambus, and Romper Room. I love these polishes.

My favorite Laura Mercier brush
This brush is great. Works for everything. I love applying/blending concealer with this brush. It's smooth and flawless especially under the eye and around the nose. It's great for buffing out colors or applying cream eyeshadow sparingly. I have multiples of this brush. It's also one of the only brushes I will go looking for on location if it's missing from my belt...LOL! I keep it marked BRIGHTLY with Illamasqua nail varnish in Alarm around the ferrule so that I can spot it from afar.
very poor quality compared to other LM brushes
So, i'm just going to say it, I HATE this brush. It's disappointing because I love almost all of the other Laura Mercier brushes. Why such a strong hate for this, here are my reasons: -sheds like a mofo (of course brushes shed, this one is almost worse than my dogs; Shiba Inu's have epic blowouts) -the actual bristles have come out of the ferrule, like as in with the chunk of glue that holds the bristles together (I've never had this happen with ANY brush, EVER) -the ferrule has come apart from the handle -EVERY SINGLE TIME I wash this brush it smells like a barnyard (this is now 2-3 years later) Now before you go saying anything about how I care for my brushes...I have had a majority of my brushes 5-10 years, some as old as 15-20 years, so back of my brush care! It's the one thing I can say without a doubt I care about my brushes (way too expensive to be replacing!) I have owned about 5 of these brushes (because I want to make sure i'm not just getting a bad "batch"), I have given all but one of them away and I only keep that one because it keeps my Laura Mercier brush set complete. I have multiples of many Mercier brushes because they are so great. This one however misses the mark on so many levels. I barely use it, unless I have to when working for Mercier and even then I usually go to another brush to get the job done. Sorry Laura Mercier, everything else is ON POINT though. Buy another companys version of this brush if you're looking for this style.
MUA's & Hairstylist can use this!
I love the versatility of this product. I like it white so that I can see the colors i'm blending. I like how you can have the de-panned products here for the quickness. I like the ability to literally throw a mess of hairpins/bobby pins on this beauty and never have to reach...especially if you have no assistant that day. I will be purchasing a few of these so that I can have them for hair & makeup. I do however wish the magnet on the bottom was larger to fit a few more shadows or alligator clips on. Won't deduct stars on that because I will prob buy 2 more! Might be my favorite Beautylish buy I've made yet!
Conversation starter for sure
I don't know how i've gone on this long without these (I also ordered the Magnetic one). The red lips are so attractive. Clients comment all the time. I wear the lips when I'm working the retail end of things, I LOVE IT! My hands thank you SOOOO much...I still end up with streaks of liners and waterproof things when showing colors but at least now matching/applyin foundation/concealer and lipgloss/lipstick is SOOO much more fun...the back of my hands THANK YOU. Many people are going to be ordering them once I enlighten them all!
Best Laura Mercier product ever...seriously
These Caviar Sticks are B-E-Y-O-N-D! I love them SOOOO much. I have Sapphire, Turquoise (limited edition), Jungle, Steel and now there are additional ones in lighter colors, Mint Snow, Rosegold (my fav), Seashell (love this on the waterline), Pink Opal & Sugar Frost (gorgeous sparkle and great for inside corner of the eye)....they blend well with each other or layer with powder shadow. Use as a base, go swimming...you name it! Clients also love them for their ease of use and portability. They just need a really black one now and the collection could be complete! Feel good about spending the $26ish dollars on them...you will LOVE THEM...there are maybe 2 other lighter colors that just released I just didn't buy those....YET...enjoy!
CAN'T TAKE IT, AMAZING
Lit Glitter is amazing...and seriously, who doesn't love the name Boogie Nights. It perfectly describes the color...I can't wait to get ALL the colors. This glitter is perfect, not too much fall out (very little actually), NONE fell into my eyes! Beauties, if you want glitter, BUY LIT...soooooooo goooooooooooooood (i'll post a pic soon)
Big Money, Razzle Dazzler, & Be Jeweled
Are the colors that I own. Love them. They are great if you need to have amazing fingers or toes in a short time. They have full coverage, hide all imperfections and are the best to put on over an old pedicure if you are really in a rush. Only problem, they are stubborn as heck to get off, even with pure acetone. They dry very fast. Wear them ALL the time on my toes. I usually just use them as an accent on my fingers. I did tips with them once as well. Big Money is my favorite of them. You NEED A TOP COAT, keeps that sparkle looking fresh (i usually do 2 layers of clear, so 4 total coats of polish)
