Love Them All

I love my Nyx Jumbo Eye pencils! I own a good amount of colors in this collection and have use for all. Used either as a base or alone they work wonders, very bright and pigmented, also have great lasting power! I use as an eyeliner sometimes, other times as a base under my shadows and I have no issues with creasing or melting like some of the "imposter" jumbo pencils. Some of my faves are Milk, Rust, Dark Brown, Black Bean. I especially love Rust with my blue eyes cause it makes them pop and is a lovely (dark maroon/red), also Milk (pure white) cause it is a great base for shadows that aren't very pigmented on their own, with this as a base it just makes the shadow brighter and truer to what it is meant to look like. I would defiantly go out and grab a few (or all) for your collection because you won't be disappointed!

love this product!

I have had Bio Oil for sometime now and use it mostly in the winter as my skin is dry as the desert! I am now pregnant and have been using it on my growing belly and it is absolutely fabulous! I use it after every shower and at night before bed. I have noticed that my belly is looking better than it use to as I already have 2 children and didn't take the time to even bother with the marks during pregnancy and after. I just put some into the palm of my hand and rub for a good 10 to 15 minutes in circular motion also up and down. It does not rub into the skin fully but I just let it dry and go about my routine while drying. Like I mentioned above; I have very dry skin and I also use it as a "lotion" in the Winter into Spring and it keeps my skin hydrated...I have tried many products but Bio Oil and Coconut Oil are the only 2 that actually work for my severe dry skin. If you are just looking for something to hydrate- I would defiantly grab this but it also benefits as a scar reducer so it's worth the money and one bottle does last a good amount of time! So in the long run I would recommend adding this to any beauty regimen dry skin or not, its worth owning!

Affordable

So I was given this primer to try out from a friend and I must admit I actually like it! A little goes a long way (it is more of a slicker formula) I would recommend not taking the doe foot applicator and rubbing it all over the eyelids but do rub a little on your ring finger and apply it that way. Before I apply my eye shadow I do have to rub it out one more time as it creases in my lids but as for staying power and brightness of the eye shadows it defiantly does the trick! I still love my go to ELF eyelid primer but as a back up this is great to have in your collection :)

My Favorite!

This mascara I picked up at my local dollar store, usally Almay products are a little more on the high priced side so when I saw it I grabbed it of course! I fell in love! This mascara goes on great, no clumping, makes a full, long dark coated lash which is what I like to achieve without the false lashes. It has three different setting so you can change it to be less on the brush or more. I always kept it on three and that would make for the perfect lash. It has a rubber appliactor with many little bristels on it and bows in in the middle so it fits perfect with the curve of your lashes. I would defently recommend buying this mascara, it was very cheap and something that can give you three diffeent lash looks and gives you those looks without any hassel!

no no no.....

I do not like this product much at all. I got it thinking it would be great like some of their other 24 hour products...ya no. It is nice in the aspect of the gold shimmers in the mascara that brings out the eyes but thats it! I do not like the brush it is a rubbery one and not bristles which I am not a fan of much. It just seems so stiff on the lashes that it feels almost like a glue. It does flake on me (i dont know about others) but ya it defently flakes off. Also whn the time comes to take it off, it is very hard to even with makeup remover. I would not go and tell any one to buy this product so ya, that means you! :)

has the wow factor!

This is another mascara I picked up to try out and is the one I am loving the most out of the 4. It gives me full lashes as well as length. It is very black which I like and doesn't talk a bunch of coats to get it to the desired look I am trying to achieve. I would recommend purchasing VOLUMEFLASH SCANDALEYES. Its affordable and just as good as a high end product.

so~so

I got about 4 different mascaras in the past few weeks since my recent favorite was running out I wanted to try a few newbies. I picked this one up at Target for a resonable price. The reviews I had seen were nothing but good things said. My opinion is that it's not the greatest. I like full volume as well as length, and for me this mascara just didn't cut it, I do like the features of the mascara such as the bendy brush and the brush shape and size itself. I do use it with another mascara and I like it in that aspect but alone I have to build and build it up. I wouldn't recommend purchasing this product if you like big full lashes.

great product!

I got this cream blush is Plaza Pink, it was at my local dollar store and thought what the heck I will give it a try. They had it in the pink color and a burgandy like color, I have fair skin so I chose the lighest of the two. I love the way it glides on and blends out well. It can be worn alone as a blush and highlight or can be used as a base for blush and highlight or in some cases I use it as my blush and a highlight for that extra dewy look. It is very versitile and I will defently be purchasing a few more of these!

~beautiful colors~

This collection is amazing! The shades are very pigmented and bold. They are silky smooth and so blendable. There are many different looks you can get out of the collection, wether it may be a day look or an evening look it can be accomplished with these shades. It is also good for beginners as well as advanced make up lovers. The back of these palettes have different number sequences so the user can create different looks without really even trying, it's sorta like paint by numbers! I would defently recommend adding this palette to you collection as well as the others.

not a fan

This product looked like it would really work well to just give an overall even look to the face but as well be translucent, but it wasn't either! I put the product on my face and it was very chalky and made me look dry and caky. I had more of a white look than what the product says it will do. I defently was not more awake looking but ghostly instead! I won't be grabbing this again. I am not saying all E.L.F. products are bad but this one wasn't one of the good ones!
