Favourite

This is now the only eye makeup remover I use. I love the formula, it takes off everything with just couple of gentle swiping motions. You don't need much product to take off even waterproof mascara. So the full size bottle will last a long time. I've even used this to take off bright red 24/7 lipsticks andreadied a great job. This is a must have investment in your makeup bag! Just a little trick for this product, if you wet the cotton pad under warm water first and then squeeze the access water out and then put product on the cotton pad it helps to remove makeup more efficiently.

Daily must use!

I actually have this product in the larger tube version that does not come with the wand applicator. This primer is great for my skin tone since I'm fair skined. I find that this matte finish actually helps to even out the skin tone on my eyelid. It does all that it promises; keeps your eyeshadows from creasing and it's definately long wearing. You do need to wait for it to dry and set for a bit after you apply it. I would recommend this for people with lighter skin tones only because it does dry matte and for darker skin tones it might not be the same colour as your skin tone. I only use a little bit of this on my lids daily so the tube will last you a long time.

Bit disappointed

Initally when I bought this brush, I was using it to apply the MAC Fluidline. I really liked this brush because it was just the right size to give you control on the thickness of your liner and it was great for creating cat eyes. The only thing that had really disappointed me was that this brush, I had for about a year or so and I took very good care of it, but after washing and using it for the period of time the brush completely flared out at the tips. I can no longer use it anymore for eyeliner. I guess since it's such a small brush you have to be EXTRA delicate with it. For the price it costs I'm sure that you can find something just as small for a lower cost especially if it is not going to last you as long.

Good for picking up product

This is one of the first MAC brushes that I had gotten. I mainly use this to put on under eye concealer. It does pick up a good amount of product but it does not help to blend the product in. Usually I use this to pick up and apply the concealer on my under eye and blemishes, but I'll have to either use my finger or my blending brush to blend the product into my skin. I have had this brush for a long time and used it pretty much daily. It is still in very good shape. So if you are looking for a brush to pick up and apply concealer I would recommend this.

Great for blending

I bought this brush to blend out my eyeshadows but I found that it was too big for my eye and it didn't give me the results that I wanted. Through a YouTube video by one of the makeup gurus (sorry I forgot who exactly) she had been using it to blend her concealer. For me this brush works so much better at blending out concealer that I put on my blemishes and under my eye. It allows you to blend the concealer into your skin for that almost air brushed look. Since the brush is very full, it's great for blending out concealer under the eye and not making the concealer have a caked on look. This brush is easy to clean especially since it's white you can see the makeup coming off of it as you shampoo and rinse it. I would recommend this brush for blending out concealer but not so much for the eye lids if your eye area is smaller.

Good product

I use this product in Blacktrack. I apply this product with MAC's 210, I like the control I get with the smaller brush. I find that this product is a good dark shade of black and it goes on very smoothly. The glass packaging is great, it helps the product from drying out too fast. This is product that you can use for awhile even if you use it religiously everyday. I do have lids that do get a bit oily throughout the day so I do recommend using an eye primer with this product to make it last longer (especially if your lids are more prone to be oily). This gel liner is long lasting but easy to clean off with cleanser or eye makeup remover. This product is also great for creating cat eyes!

My go-to mascara

This is hands down one of my favourite mascaras. I use this mascara in black. I have short, sparse and pin straight downwards pointing lashes. After using a lash curler this mascara holds my curl, clump free and gives me volume after about 1-2 coats. You can wear this mascara alone to give you all of these traits and it works well when layering it with other mascaras. I really like the formula, and the large classic wand that it comes with. The brush is able to grab all the lashes on my eye and it's easy to clean off with cleanser or makeup remover. The best part of this is it stays on the whole day, you won't find the yourself with racoon eyes in te middle of the day. It is a bit pricy but it lasts quite awhile. I would definitely recommend this is if you are looking for volume, clump free and curl holding in you mascaras.

Love love love!

This product is essential for me. I have short, sparse and very straight downwards pointing lashes. The only way that my lashes are visable is if I curl them and apply mascara. Trying out this product was money well spend. I've tried many many curls before but this one, but this was the only one that gave me the curled results that I wanted after applying mascara. Other curlers made my lashes curl but after applying only one coat of any mascara my lashes would fall and go back to pin straight! This is the only curler for my lashes that are able to hold the curl with or without mascara for te entire day. I've recommended this product to many people who all have had the same results as myself. I've gone through about 4 of these and I will continue spending the money on this great product!

Excellent!

I'm going to start off by saying that I have combination skin that tends to get a bit oily in the T-zone area (mainly my forehead and just above my cheeks). I usually wear mineral foundation only in the areas that I need to cover spots or even out my skin and on top of that I just use a powder brush to apply this HD powder. I purchased this after hearing very good thing about it. I love the texture that this product leaves on your face; silky smooth. Also to cover the face you only need a little bit of product, so this container can last you a long time. I find that after using this product I don't need to use blotting sheets anymore and it keeps my face fairly matte for the entire day. I have fair skin and use this daily, I have recommended this to friends with darker skin and they have had good results as well with this product. Just word of caution, too much of this product on your face will leave you too chalky white and give a non-natural look to the skin. Otherwise I would recommend this product even though it does carry a fairly high price tag.
