BB Cream -Garnier - BB Cream Miracle Skin Perfector for Combination to Oily Skin - Light
MakeupAddiction93 5/9/2013 6:16:00 AM
This is my fave non Korean BB cream and is actually better than some Korean brands I've tried (like skin79). What I like about this product is that it feels so light weight even when layered and is quick + easy to apply at 4am before I start work. It is a very thin non greasy product that sets matte very quickly! The only cons I find with this product is that it doesn't give me the full coverage I love from my foundation/other BB creams I have tried and it doesn't stay matte for very long on me even with powder (NOTHING does). Other than that I will for sure re purchase this when I can't easily get my hands on lioele triple solution BB cream and lioele dollish veil makeup base (which are Amazing together).

Mascara -Revlon - Photoready 3D Volume
MakeupAddiction93 5/1/2013 6:10:00 AM
I didn't really find this mascara that great at all, I honestly wanted to like it but I found that it transfered onto my lids and under my eyes REALLY badly I did like the brush because it was easy to get all the little lashes especially the bottom ones but I found that the brush didn't get swiped enough on the way out of the bottle, leaving it with wayy too much product. I didn't find that it made my lashes much longer (thicker, yes but also a little clumpy) and it was very hard to get off even with a high end eye makeup remover. Have given this to my sister, hopefully she will like it as much as some of the other reviewers (:

Lipstick -Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics - Lip Tar
MakeupAddiction93 5/1/2013 5:56:00 AM
I absolutely love lip tars at the moment, I own 5 colours (queen, anime, belladonna,demure, trick) and purchased 4 more online yesterday! Being a huge fan of bright, over the top colours I find that they have an Amazing range with endless possibilities as far as mixing is concerned. I have never experienced feathering even without liner but I do find my lips are a little dry sometimes after wearing these (nothing a quick scrub doesn't fix tho!) They literally last ALL day on me even with eating and drinking and I only need the tiniest bit to cover my whole lips with complete opaqueness! $18 (+ postage... Living in Australia sucks for lovers of popular makeup brands) is quite a bit to spend on one colour but with the amount you need to use I don't see myself ever finishing these. The packaging is okay but sometimes I find the product can come out a little too fast which is a bit of a con for me. I get compliments every time I wear these and I love the semi matte finish. By far one of the best lip products I have ever used and ALL I will be buying from now on ;)

Eye Primer -Too Faced - Shadow Insurance, Anti-Crease Eye Shadow Primer
MakeupAddiction93 2/7/2013 11:01:00 PM
Can't live without this primer! A full sized tube lasts me months! I use only a tiny bit under my eye shadow every day and it lasts ALL DAY in fact it looks exactly the same when I take my makeup off at night as it does when I put it on in the morning. It is honestly the only thing I have found that keeps the eye shadow on my oily lids and I will repurchase again and again :D the only slightly annoying thing I found is that the tip of the tube tends to crack around the bottom but this isn't a big problem for me.

Primer/ Corrector -Revlon - PhotoReady Perfecting Primer (color 001)
MakeupAddiction93 2/7/2013 10:47:00 PM
I love this primer, I have quite large pores around my nose and find that this product makes them virtually undetectable! It keeps my foundation on and insures an easy, even application. Although I do find it doesn't do much for my oily skin, still have to repowder just as often and look oily just as quick.

Liquid -Revlon - PhotoReady Makeup - Vanilla
MakeupAddiction93 2/7/2013 10:40:00 PM
I do really like this product and believe it would be perfect if I didn't have such oily skin. The coverage is perfect for me and the lasting power is very good and I really like the overall finish of this foundation. The only thing that really is a downer for me is that it has very little oil control and I find myself starting to look shiny in as little as 2 hours after application, on a normal day I will have to re powder at least twice. I will repurchase this in the colder months when my skin seems to be a little less greasy. I also use it with the Revlon photoready primer.
