Every time I used this product, my lashes would get clumpy. Not crazy clumpy, but clumpy nonetheless. Instead of just wiggling the brush at the base of my lashes and then pulling it upwards, I just decided to coat them. I just use the brush up and down, and that's it. It makes my lashes look amazing! It's not my HG mascara (Benefit's BadGal Lash holds that title) but it's a close second.

Beautiful shades!

Okay, so here's a little backstory: After hearing so many wonderful things about these blushes, I obviously wanted to get them, however, I couldn't find it. I went to two Sephora stores that were fairly close to me, and an Ulta. One day while I was at the mall, I went to check the Sephora at JC Penney. What a miracle they had the product! Which is funny because the same thing happened with my Urban Decay liquid liner. Anyways, I was so happy I found it. I used it a few days later and the shade was just too perfect. It literally lasts all day, which is a surprise because I can never find any blush that won't slide off my oily skin. This has definitely become my go to blush!

Bold, but not crazy!

I was browsing around my local Sephora before heading into work, when I spotted this lovely purple color. I knew that I had to swatch it because the color was so insanely bright, that I thought, "Who in their right mind would wear this?" So I swatched the color on my hands, and it was just too perfect! I had to buy it right away. It looks intimidating, but once you put it on and blend it out, it's beautiful. This color looks absolutely amazing on darker skin tones, and I seriously cannot wait to try other shades. I have my eye on Excite (;

Keeps my makeup in place.

I've heard so many great things about this, so I decided to go to my local Ulta to pick up the travel size. Usually, after a few hours, my makeup just seems to disappear due to my oily skin, but this keeps it lasting for hours! I also love the refreshing feeling it gives me.

Not for me.

I really enjoy using Benefit's High Beam, but I also thought that it gave me an unnatural looking glow. I assumed it was because of my yellow undertone, so I decided to give Moon Beam a shot. I went to a Benefit counter at a Macy's and swatched it. For some reason, it looked a bit pink. I blamed it on the tester, but then I went to Sephora and found the same problem. I just did not like the look it gave me, and I was glad that I didn't buy it because I know I would have returned it in a heartbeat.

Gives me that perfect glow.

I recently went to the Sephora by my job, and asked about the Benefit highlighters.She swatched them on my hands, and we were both a bit disappointed on how they looked, so she walked me over to the Nars section. We put it on my face, and we were all stunned on how PERFECT it look. It gave me the most GORGEOUS glow I have ever seen. I wasn't even planning on shopping, but it was imperative that I got this. All my coworkers complimented me on my look that day, and I've been in love with this product ever since. If you're seriously looking for a beautiful glow, you NEED this product.

Utterly amazing.

I've been hearing the hype on this palette for over a year, and I was dying to get my hands on it. Every time I went to Sephora, or Ulta, of course it was sold out. I recently got this as a present from my boyfriend, and I love it. So many different looks to pull off with just 12 shadows.

Gives me that extra shine!

Since my hair is so dry, I'm a sucker for anything that says it'll give me shine. I used this today, and I noticed a difference right away. My hair felt silkier, softer, and a lot shinier. I used this with the conditioner as well. If I wasn't so hooked on my Macadamia Nut Oil shampoo and conditioner, I would definitely use this on a regular basis.

The perfect product for removing excess oil.

Since my hair is so dry, I only use this once a month. I actually used it today because my hair was starting to look extremely dirty. My hair is now squeaky clean. It's extremely effective, and does exactly what it says it'll do. After I came out of the shower, my hair felt fabulous. It wasn't super heavy anymore, and all the nasty flakes I had on my hair are all gone. I love this product! Oh plus, it's smells UH-MAZING!

The Epitome of Lip Perfection.

The beauty community is buzzing about these new products, and for all the right reasons, might I add. They're a cross between a luxuriously moisturizing lip balm, but some shades come with the high pigmentation that is usually associated with lipsticks. Unlike some lipsticks, there is no need to apply lipgloss after. With a good application, you will find a nice, shiny (not overwhelmingly shiny though) finish. They may not last long, so store them in a safe place, but be careful because they may be prone to melting. They come in a nice array of shades that are almost perfect for each skin tone. Highly highly HIGHLY recommend this product.
