Eyeliner -E.L.F. - Mineral Eyeliner

I did not like this eyeliner at all. This is the only eyeliner that I've used that has given me racoon eyes when I put it on my waterline most eyeliners just disappear. And the black wasn't the blackest either so I'll say this was a fail for me I prefer the studio eyeliner over this. It cost the same, but you get more it last longer and works better

Liquid -E.L.F. - Flawless Finish Foundation
rated 3 of 5

Okay so this foundation in my opinion is just very average, when I first saw this in the new products list I had to try it regardless, but I was pleasently surprised when I saw it said oil free. Having oily skin I'm not a big fan of liquid makeup but I got this in the color cocoa which matched me very nice (mk 607, mac nw45) but I noticed that it was kinda heavy and I also realized it's not oil free and even though it's heavy it doesn't last very long on the skin. So for those reasons I wouldn't buy again, but the packaging is cute, comes with a pump and the color matches so I would recommend to someone with normal to dry skin on a budget.

I like this but it really dosen't do anything. I bought this in the color toffee and it matches me well it's a watery consistance and I feel like it never sets but it's okay

Concealers -E.L.F. - All Over Cover Stick
rated 3 of 5

Okay so I bought this in the color toffee and it's alittle too dark for me, it also has a wierd undertone almost white so it makes you look ashy. The coverage is pretty good for a dollar I think I would like this if they had a better color selection. I feel like elf products for the darkest color is usally like a nw47- 50 then there second darkest color is like a nw43 or lighter so I would buy this if they had my color.

Concealers -Mary Kay - concealer

I really like this concealer, this is my everyday concealer. It gives natural light to medium coverage. I have the color bronze 2 and that is very similar to nw45 select cover up, I would actually compare this concealer to that just the mac gets more coverage. This is recommended.

Concealers -E.L.F. - Complete Coverage Concealer
rated 3 of 5

This concealer is a really smart idea, it comes in pretty sturdy packaging and it has a small brush and mirror. Now the concealer is very creamy but it doesn't conceal that great it is very average and it melts off your face quickly I would say the cover stick covers much better. Although this is cute and a good idea I wouldn't buy again.

Concealers -NYX - Full Coverage Concealer Jar

Okay so I used to really like this concealer, this to be my go to concealer for concealing around my eyebrows, to define them. The I noticed I stated to get random bumps around my eyebrows then also it seem to dry my skin out as well, and I have oily skin, so for those reasons I had to stop using it, it's a shame because I liked it for my eyebrows.

Pressed Powders -Avon - Ideal Shade Pressed Powder
rated 3 of 5

So I really like this product. It is a very nice powder, I have very oily skin and this did help but I still did have to blot after a couple of hours but I still like it I got toffee which is almost the exact same color as my mac nw45 powder just not orange, buildable coverage, I've found my new fav powder. Update: This powder has sooo many ingredients and one of them is bismuth which makes my face itch, so I probably will finish it then not repurchase.

Primer/ Corrector -Avon - MagiX Face Perfector
rated 3 of 5
kikirose 2/18/2011 6:41:00 PM

Overall this is just an okay product for me. I wouldn't buy it again. And I don't use it for foundation primer, because it makes me look pale underneath my foundation and I have oil break through with this. What I use it for is just to put on top of my m.o.m. when I'm not wearing foundation and to give me spf protection but when It's nothing to write home about.

Lip Gloss -NYX - lipgloss with mega shine
rated 3 of 5
kikirose 2/16/2011 5:01:00 PM

I think these glosses are okay at best, they are just not super special to me. They don't last very long on the lips, being dark skinned most of the colors show up pretty sheer on me, they retail for about $5, which is not extremely high for a gloss but not that cheap either. The pros are that they are not sticky what so ever they do have nice colors, which some are pigmented and show up, they smell great, you get alot of products, about .50 oz. So if this lasted on your lips for a little longer, and didn't get streaky I would give it 5 stars

I didn't really like this. I mean it was okay, I think I would like it better if they had more colors to choose from. I got dark brown and it's not a dark brown it's more medium brown on my dark skin(nw45) it's pretty much the same color, so when I build it to make it darker, it looks waxy and uneven, this is nice and cheap but they need more colors!

Powder -Iman - Second to None Semi-Loose Powder
rated 4 of 5
kikirose 1/29/2011 5:16:00 PM

I think this would have been a good product for me if I would have bought the right color. I wear earth 3 in the stick and cream to powder and I bought the earth medium and it was too light and too yellow, even though I like yellow undertones, I heard that the earth dark was "too red" but I've never tried it myself, but this is really light and would be a good way too set your makeup.

Stick -Iman - Second To None Stick Foundation
rated 3 of 5
kikirose 1/29/2011 5:10:00 PM

This was my favorite foundation, but then I tried mary kay..... but anyways this is my fav. Iman foundation(so far). It matches my skintone very, very well, and is oil free, so it doesn't make me more oily. But the problems that I have with it is small, it transfers a tad bit and sometimes my face itches when this is on. Also the name on the package wiped completely off, but that's not a big deal. When I wear iman makeup I fill like it makes you look "made up", and that's not always the look that I'm going for, but when it is I reach for this. Nw45 mac(too red), Mary kay bronze 607, iman earth 3 update: I haven't worn this in about a month because I was wearing my mk medium foundation and when I went back to wearing this I notice that it does have a red undertone, not super red, but it is red, which I don't like so my mk in 607 is a better color match not as red as this is

Liquid -Mary Kay - Medium Coverage Foundation
rated 4 of 5
kikirose 1/29/2011 5:00:00 PM

I really like this foundation I have oily skin and when I use this over my milk of mag, it stays pretty matte(not completely, but nothing does). It's called medium coverage foundation but it can be light coverage also it looks very natural I like this better than the revlon colorstay, but it's very similar to it, just better, try it!
