Beauty Product Reviews
I honestly could not be happier with this purchase. I had a friend telling me for a long time that this was her favorite powder, and I wouldn't regret spending the money. She was right, I don't! This is by far the most matte powder, and definitely the longest lasting out of all the ones I've tried. It has such nice coverage, it just makes my face look absolutely flawless. I usually only use this for special events/nights out though, because it is a tad heavier (and more expensive, so for daily use I use Rimmel's Stay Matte Powder, definitely something I would compare to this as far as drugstore vs. high end). Definitely worth it though, one of my favorite products I've ever bought.
Easily my favorite foundation. The color is absolutely perfect, and the finish is as well. My face looks flawless all day. I have natural redness in my cheeks, freckles, and some blemishes, and this product literally makes my face a perfect clean slate. It's so matte, yet not cakey at all! It doesn't get all gross in my dry spots, nor does it get greasy and oily in my t-zone. I love this foundation. I usually stipple it on, and a little bit goes a long way. Definitely will repurchase.
I LOVE this mascara! I originally just bought the $10 tiny travel size just to test out, and I instantly fell in love. When I went back to Sephora in NYC on my birthday, the lady working convinced me to splurge and get the full size. I fell in love even more the second I tried it. The one thing that I noticed is it does have to be built upon. I usually do one coat, let it dry and apply one more and my lashes are the longest any mascara has ever made them! I have to admit I was kind of scared when I first applied my first coat. I was like "Wow, this is completely worse than 80% of my drug store mascaras." Once I put the second coat I fell in love, my lashes looked SO long. With a finishing coat of Rimmel's Scandaleyes to thicken them up, my lashes always look fantastic, and they hold a curl the whole day.
Best bronzer I've used, by far! It's the perfect shade, which is very important to me since I'm so fair. Usually a bronzer goes on far too harsh for my pale skin, or if I try and buy lighter shades, it doesn't show up. This is perfect, it goes on nicely, and it's super buildable for the days you want a more defined contour. It's definitely blendable as well -- if I put a bit too much on by accident when I contour, a quick blend out with my fingers and it looks absolutely perfect again. It's the most perfect matte shade, which I love. I've been looking for a nice matte bronzer for a while that wasn't too expensive and gave me great results, and this is it. It doesn't hurt that it literally smells like chocolate either (:
