Amazing shadows!

At just $6 a pan, these eyeshadows are well worth the money. They're super pigmented, very long lasting, and come in a huge range of colors. Some of them, admittedly, are better than others, but I've been overall very pleased with all of the colors that I have.

I love that the freedom system lets you can customize your own palette. The palette itself is really nice and durable-- I've actually accidentally stood on it before and it was completely fine. My only complaint would be that you can't easily see the colors of the shadows you have in the palette, but it's not a big deal.

Awesome tinted balm!

LOVE this product. It's super easy and quick to apply, and gives the lips a very pretty rosy flush. Not to mention it's really affordable. I would completely recommend it!

Some definite pros and cons...

I had been having trouble finding a long-lasting brow kit before this one came out so I was really excited to try it when I head it was waterproof. Overall, I've been very happy with the product, but there are some definite pros and cons to working with it.

The idea is that you tap a little bit (one tap is usually sufficient) of the pigment onto some surface-- I use the cap-- and use the included brush to mix it with the gel. The pigment itself has a great color payoff, but it's BEYOND messy. You have to be really careful when you're tapping it out of the container because it leaves big, obvious stains when you try to swipe it off of anything it gets on to.

The gel/pigment mixture also dries very quickly, so you have to apply almost immediately after mixing the two together.

I'm also not a huge fan of the fact that it takes a couple minutes' extra worth of time/effort to carefully mix the pigment and gel. If I'm in a hurry, I simply just don't have the time to bother with it.

But you do definitely get a very long-lasting, waterproof brow look. The little spoolie/angled brush included is excellent, and I love the that i can use the gel to waterproof other powder products like eyeshadow. For me, these features make it worth the extra hassle.

Great matte bronzer, but...

It's a wonderful color if you're fair-skinned. As everyone else has said, it's matte and not orangey at all, plus it smells amazing. Unfortunately, my skin tone is a bit too dark for it to really show up (I'd say I have an olivey skin tone). Hopefully I can put it to use when I pale up during the winter.
