Concealers -Bobbi Brown - Corrector
Hasu 1/30/2013 3:17:00 PM
I adore this concealer! Yes I have a ton of concealers I have been loving but this one is just PERFECT!!! I have medium brown dark circles and sometimes yellow toned concealers can make your under eyes look very ashy and gray looking, but I use this in light peach (nc25/27 for ref) and this baby covers with so little product needed under the eyes! This corrector is definitely crazy expensive for the amount you get which sucks because MAC studio finish concealer costs less and you get a bunch of product in that one. However MAC studio finish is too dry for the under eyes where as this actually feels moisturizing for the under eyes which I absolutely love! Bobbi brown never fails in under eye concealer/corrector/brightener for me. LOVE YOU BOBBI! and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT! PLEASE TRY IT! YOU'LL LOVE!

Concealers -Rimmel - Match Perfection Concealer
Hasu 1/30/2013 3:13:00 PM
LOVE THIS! This concealer is perfect for under eye circles as it is a concealer + highlighter in one (it highlights like the YSL touche eclat IMO). I love that its a liquid formulation because I feel it doesn't look cakey like cream concealers do under the eyes. I apply it using the triangle method and pat it in with my fingers and voila! no dark circles anymore! I was hesitant on purchasing this product because I wasn't sure on how well it would perform but it definitely blew me away! Love this concealer & the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles for the under eyes! Possibly two of the best drugstore liquid under eye concealers on the market! Recommend for sure!

Crème -Revlon - ColorStay Whipped Creme Makeup

OMG! I think I've found my next HG foundation after the original RC in liquid form! This foundation makes my skin look so smooth! its honestly amazing and words cannot describe how much I already adore it and I've only just gotten it today. This gives Med - Buildable full coverage and it honestly makes my skin look baby smooth and flawless! The finish to this foundation IMO is satin/matte and you really don't need to set this foundation with a powder afterwards. Btw to all my NC25/30 ladies out there 250 Medium Beige works perfect for me! I'm very pleased with the coverage, finish and shade of this product for myself. I know for very yellow toned ladies its a pain in the butt to find a right shade in this foundation and the original but I've heard Warm Golden in the whipped is suppose to be perfect for yellow toned NC30/35/37 tones as well! I wanna mention that Medium Beige in the liquid form is wayyy to light for me and the whipped version matches me great. The original CS and the whipped CS foundation definitely aren't the same as far as shade matching goes, just putting that out there. I applied this foundation using my fingers and it works great! I've read many reviews where people mention that brushes and the BB sponge don't work as well with this foundation. Overall, I do recommend this product and will reupdate this if my opinions change or if it breaks me out so & so.

Eyeliner -New York Color - Liquid Eyeliner
Hasu 11/25/2012 9:53:00 AM
LOVE this liquid eyeliner! only cons is its not waterproof so it does tend to smudge a bit in the inner corners during the day, but c'mon it was only $2-3 its dirt cheap and a very nice dark black color. I love this and would repurchase again and again! best drugstore eyeliner, definately HG material for me. RECOMMENDED!

I WOULD HAPPILY BUY THIS PRODUCT AGAIN. I used it with my Estee Lauder Double Wear liquid foundation and you guys know that stuff is pretty thick. This brush buffs in foundation so well! I'm in love with this brush! When I first bought it I didn't have high expectations for it until I used it. I recommend this brush to all of you guys in need of a great liquid foundation brush that buffs in foundation like no other, its dirt cheap too and leaves your skin looking flawless! A++++

Makeup Brushes -MAC - #231 Small Shader Brush
Hasu 10/9/2012 4:39:00 PM
Okay. So I went along trying Gel eyeliners a few years ago and bought the MAC angled eyeliner brush the #266 I believe and I tried using it and I could not have applied it using that brush to save my life! So I watch Fafinettex3's video on YOUTUBE saying she loves the MAC #231 brush to apply gel eyeliners and I went to MAC and picked it up. I applied the eyeliner using this brush and OMG the lines were PERFECT. I LOVE THIS BRUSH FOR GEL EYELINER. All I wanna say is if you seriously need a gel eyeliner brush and all the other brushes you tried were crappy YOU NEED THIS. GO GET IT NOW!

Makeup Brushes -E.L.F. - Studio Powder Brush
Hasu 9/13/2012 7:59:00 AM
Bought this brush due to the high positive reviews. I used this for my Revlon color-stay liquid foundation and it buffs the foundation so well!! its so soft and so dense and because the brush head is quite large it gets the foundation buffed in so fast and my foundation looked FLAWLESS!! I have two of these right now & two more on the way which definitely says something ;) I totally recommend this brush!! Btw I also have the Sigma F80 and although I like it I recommend ELF's because its so much faster to use and the F80 is not good for buffing but only stamping/stippling the foundation onto the face. If you're wondering which one to go for go for the ELF! A+++ BRUSH highly recommend!!

Liquid -Lancome - Teint Idole Ultra 24h
Hasu 5/15/2012 1:51:00 AM
I bought this after reading some pretty good reviews. Now I had a very difficult time choosing shades. The reason for this would be because some shades leaned to dark. I was matched to 360N and then 340N. Now I think these shades are TOO dark for my NC30 skin tone. I would also like to state that when you apply this foundation, it seems like your shade. But when u blend it into your skin it goes darker and turns orangey. YES it oxidizes really bad. I love the coverage its med/full coverage and I think this foundation would definately be worth a five lippy rating but because of the shade issues and oxidization problems I had with this foundation, I'm giving it three lippies. If any of you guys are interested in purchasing the Lancome Teint Idole 24h foundation make sure you get a sample first before shelling out $50CAD for this. I hope Lancome does improve the shade selection.

Mascara -BeneFit Cosmetics - They're Real
Hasu 5/12/2012 7:06:00 PM
Wow my thoughts on this mascara have changed. When i first bought this mascara i really liked the length. So after i tossed it in my makeup drawer and decided to reach for it again. The length doesnt look so amazing like it did when i first got it. IMO a drugstore mascara does way more than this does. It doesnt give any volume whatsoever so if u want volume, then just forget about this mascara. Save your money, and buy a drugstore mascara.

Liquid -Revlon - ColorStay Makeup
Hasu 4/22/2012 2:29:00 AM
Ive tried alot of high end foundations from MAC, Makeup forever, Chanel, Nars, Laura Mercier etc. I bought this foundation quite a few years ago and decided to purchase it again and I forgot how much I LOVE this product! This gives a beautiful flawless, matte finish delivering medium/full coverage. This foundation may be a drugstore product but it DEFINATELY has the "high end" foundation coverage/finish. My only complaint would be (like many others have mentioned) is the "pump" issue. It is really annoying because it wastes alot of product. However, for the price u seriously cannot go wrong with this product, even though it may seem pricey being a drugstore foundation. I totally recommend this product, DO NOT miss out on this little gem!

Blush -Wet 'n' Wild - Silk Finish Blush 831D Pearlescent Pink
Hasu 11/5/2011 10:59:00 PM
I bought this blush after reading the 'RAVEvews' on this product. Now I already own NARS Orgasm, Super Orgasm, MAC Springsheen and Milani Luminous. This blush is a DUPE for NARS Super Orgasm. Its just as pinky & has gold shimmers in it. The glitters I find do transfer around my eyes after wearing it, but I am not too bothered. This blush is definately a great deal/dupe for only $5 CAD. Im definately going to buy me some back ups soon! One downside I found with this product was the cheap packaging, now I am not a makeup snob but if you drop this blush on the floor it WILL shatter so be careful when u do use it. However I DEFINATELY reccomend this product A+ !!

Crème -Laura Mercier - Silk Creme Foundation
Hasu 4/11/2011 9:55:00 PM
I picked up this foundation after watching Allthatglitters21 and Juicystar07's constant rave on youtube. I picked the one up in Medium Ivory (NC30 in MAC, 120 MUFE HD) First things first, the packaging. It looks classy in its dark purple tube, and it has a squeezy type of bottle packaging. This foundation has 35ml whereas most foundations only consist of 30ml. I love the coverage of this foundation, and I can definately say that this foundation is Medium - Full coverage, so if you need heavy coverage then this is definately the foundation you should look into trying. This foundation reminds me alot of MAC's studio fix fluid foundation as that foundation delivers the same coverage. Two negatives would be the price, $55CAD is definately very steep, but the coverage the foundation gives you definately makes it worth buying. I also noticed this foundation has an icky smell like the MAC studio fix fluid foundation, but it definately isnt noticeable when you put it on your face.

Lipstick -GOSH - Velvet Touch Lipstick #134 Darling
Hasu 2/20/2010 7:51:00 PM
Lovely nude shade and great drugstore nude lippy! Very creamy similar to the MAC cremesheen formulas. Only thing i dont like is that if your lips are cracked or peeling, this lipstick will accentuate them so you will need a lip balm before you apply this. :)
