I really love this! The color is a pretty shimmery peach. It goes on smoothly and evenly and if used with a primer, it barely budges throughout the day. I can't wait to try this in more shades!

I have this in "blushing mocha" and it makes a pretty good bronzer. It shows up nicely on my skin and gives me a healthy sunkissed glow. I will most likely repurchase this.

Pressed Powders -Physicians Formula - Mineral Wear Mineral Face Powder
rated 3 of 5
smm9032 4/27/2009 8:13:00 PM

I have this in translucent and i think it works okay. It gives my skin a matte look and absorbs oil pretty well. It's really nothing special compared to every other translucent powder though. Also. I hate the way the product flakes and causes a mess everytime a brush touches it.

Lip Gloss -Physicians Formula - Plump Potion - Misty Rose Potion

I actually love this gloss. I love the tingle after application and I think my lips look much fuller and glossy. The color is very pretty as well. The formula lasts quite long for a gloss. I also LOVE the needle-shaped packaging.

Eye Shadow -Physicians Formula - Shimmer strips custom eye enhancing shadow & liner
rated 4 of 5
smm9032 4/27/2009 8:05:00 PM

I actually really like this product. I bought it at Walgreens on sale and I'm pretty happy with my purchase. I have the palette for brown eyes. The colors are really shimmery, which I actually like. The palette also provides a lot of versatility since there are six different shades of eyeshadow and three shades of liner. I would definitely buy this again.

Palettes -Too Faced - Naughty/Nice Palette
rated 5 of 5
smm9032 4/27/2009 8:01:00 PM

I love this palette. The packaging is fabulous and so are the products inside. I ended up finding this for eleven dollars on ebay (which is great for a Too Faced palette). There are 6 eyeshadows in total and six lip glosses, providing a lot of versatility. The eyeshadows are highly pigmented and go on nicely with an eyeshadow brush. The lip glosses are pretty as well. This was a great purchase!

Liquid -LORAC - LORAC Satin Makeup
rated 4 of 5
smm9032 4/27/2009 7:55:00 PM

I really like this foundation. The texture is a bit thick, but feels light on my face. It provides nice coverage and glides over my dry spots nicely. By the middle of the day, my face can start to look a little shiny with this foundation. However, all I need to do is apply a little translucent powder and i'm good to go.

Eye Shadow -LORAC - Innocence
rated 5 of 5
smm9032 4/27/2009 7:50:00 PM

I got this on sale on the Lorac website for $4.99 and I love it! The color is a very pretty light purple with a hint of silver. It works great on my fair skin. The product itself is great quality. The shadow is very pigmented and has a smooth, creamy texture. I'm definitely happy with my purchase!

Lip Treatments -Nivea - A Kiss of Flavor Cherry
rated 2 of 5
smm9032 4/14/2009 4:30:00 PM

This stuff dries out so fast. I have to reapply it very frequently throughout the day. Also, the red sheen is not as subtle as I thought it would be. I find the color to be a bit severe.

Eye Makeup Remover -Avon - Moisture effective Eye makeup remover
rated 4 of 5
smm9032 4/14/2009 4:26:00 PM

This is my absolute favorite eye makeup remover. The price is great and the product works better than any of the more expensive makeup removers which I have tried. It effectively takes off my waterproof mascara and eyeliner without me having to rub my eyes raw.

Fragrances -Lucky Brand - Lucky You
rated 3 of 5
smm9032 4/14/2009 4:23:00 PM

This fragrace is a bit too strong for me. Someone who prefers a powerful fragrance may like this better. I also find that it fades a bit quickly. Although I have definitely come across worst fragrances than this one, I do not like this enough to buy again.

Mascara -Maybelline - Volum' Express The Colossal
rated 3 of 5
smm9032 4/14/2009 4:15:00 PM

I was very eager to try this mascara because I have heard great things about it. I finally bought it at Walgreens because it was bogo free. I was hoping that it would give me a similar effect to Cover Girl Lash Blast, which I love. The brush is big but much easier to handle than the brush that comes with Lash Blast. However, the formula dries quickly, which makes layering coats difficult. I end up with clumps and with flaking. It also sometimes leaves me with raccoon eyes. It does volumize, but not as well as the Cover Girl Lash Blast. I do love the bright yellow and purple packaging though. Although this is not a horrible mascara, I will most likely not re-purchase.

Pressed Powders -Jane - Oil Free Finishing Powder
rated 3 of 5
smm9032 4/6/2009 5:11:00 PM

This is ok at controlling oil and offers a decent finish to my foundation. However, the "colorless" powder is not colorless at all. It's quite yellow and somewhat dark for my complexion. It leaves my skin with a yellowish tint which i do not like. So I wouldn't buy this color if you are looking for a translucent finish.

Liquid -Jane - Oil Free foundation
rated 3 of 5
smm9032 4/6/2009 4:18:00 PM

I bought this because it was super cheap. The shade matched my skin nicely and the liquid blended well. However, the coverage is quite sheer and did not even out my skin tone well. It also tends to get shiny throughout the day. It's not a horrible foundation, but not one that I will buy again.

Liquid -Revlon - ColorStay Makeup
rated 3 of 5

I like the fact that this foundation looks natural, which is always usually a problem when it comes to liquid foundations. However, it is difficult for me to find my correct shade. Also, the coverage is not as great as I expected. This is a decent foundation, but not the best.
