Highlighter and quick-lazy alternative to eye shadow

First, I just want to say that I think this is a good purchase for a dollar. I don't use this as a blush or anything like that as some of the girls who've reviewed do. This color (PERSIMMON) is too pink and sparkly for my tan skin to use as a blush sub. I do use it as a highlighter though! I love it as a highlighter, I don't have any problems blending it out.

I also use this as a one sweep eye shadow when I'm running late or feeling particularly lazy. This color doesn't add a pigmentation on my tan eyelids so much as just brighten everything up and make me look more awake. Love it when I'm going for a natural look. It does crease, even when using a primer, I don't know how many hours into the wear as I'm usually checking 12 hours after application after sweating in dance classes. What makeup could possibly stay through all of that??

All in all, I like it as a subtle highlight and, since it helps me be lazy and that's always a plus, I would definitely repurchase (although I don't think I even use it often enough to need to). I mean, it's only a dollar! :)

Dries sticky, FOOL PROOF SHADE

I felt compelled to write a review of this lip gloss because of the amazing versatility of the shade I have, which is Plumped Mauve. I'm mixed race so I have naturally tan skin and it looks very pretty on me. Not only does it look pretty on me, though, but my friends who range from very pale to Italian to full on girls of color can borrow it, swipe it on, and looks amazing on all of them. If you only want to buy one shade and aren't sure which one to get, make it Plumping Mauve because it is so wearable and compliments all skin tones!

The gloss does what it says, making your lips look fuller without the burning feeling some plumping glosses give. It goes on light and smooth, but can dry kind of sticky so I have to reapply every now and then.

I'm obsessed!

I absolutely 100% recommend this product. I use it every day! With a fluffy powder brush, I sweep all the tones together and buff all over my face to set my foundation and generally just pull together my look. I also use my finger to isolate certain colors (pink for under my eyes) for true color correcting. The texture is fantastic: super fine, doesn't even feel like it's on!

Best shade is definitely Broadway Burgandy (the one pictured here). Good for if you like to change your color all the time, since they don't stay as long but are well pigmented

Seriously, you need to buy this

I was a little hesitant about the whole Matte Nails trend, partially because it was just so expensive. NOT TRUE ANYMORE!!

This product is under two dollars, easy to apply, quick to dry, and leaves a wonderful Matte Finish. Everything you want from a Mattifying Top Coat, so why would you buy ANYTHING else??!

Really love this iron for long, more "wavy" curls. I've never tried to do super tight curls with it since that's not really the style of my hair, but the barrel is really smooth and it doesn't tug my hair at all. Also really good when you're in a hurry and every minute counts, since the turbo heats the iron very quickly

Pretty darn good!

I love this lipstick for color and easy application. When first applied, it's smooth and creamy, but the longer I wear it, I find that it tends to dry out. However, that's easily fixed by just applying a balm before the lipstick.

Love it, use it every day

The shade I have is perfect for my tan skin, to the point where I don't even use foundation anymore. Love the SPF, it blends really well, and gives me a light base for daily makeup so I don't breakout. My skin can get pretty oily in spots, and this doesn't make it worse at all. I find I'm more oily when I'm *not* wearing it! Breathable is totally correct. Love it!

The Go-To Beauty Item!!

I love Vaseline, I use it all the time. As an admitted moisturizing addict, I always have Vaseline on hand to zap onto parts of my skin that get super dry (like elbows) and a little Vaseline keeps my mixed-ethnic skin from getting ashy all day long! (always on my knees if I'm not wearing long pants) I also use it as the perfect eye-makeup remover, since it's so hydrating, it won't dry out or pull on delicate skin around the eyes, making it a two-in-one!

So affordable, so usable, so perfect!
