Foundations -Make Up For Ever - HD High Definition Foundation
SammiXo 2/23/2013 10:27:00 PM
This foundation is the best!! I always make sure I keep a bottle of this stuff around ( I mainly use this for the winter time and use matte valet plus for summer) it's very thin and it blends out really easily I use my elf stippling brush. It's covers a good majority of my redness and discoloration and gives a glow to your face :) this also seems to stay on my face all day long and doesn't get cakey or settle into lines... But the downside is its almost$50 so it's very expensive ( main reason I dont use it all year long) but other then that I love it amd I will continue to use it and repurchase

Liquid -Make Up For Ever - Mat Velvet PLUS Matifying Foundation
SammiXo 2/23/2013 10:18:00 PM
This foundation is truly amazing!! When u put it on your skin it blends so easily and when it dries it leaves a matte finish and my skin feels so soft. I just use a wet sponge to apply. This last all day long and keeps my skin from getting to oily. I have combo skin and I work very long hours and this stuff really holds up to the heat. I like the packaging it's nice how you squeeze it out so u aren't wasting any product. Love this stuff it's differently worth the money

Concealers -Make Up For Ever - 5 Camouflage Cream Palette
SammiXo 2/23/2013 10:10:00 PM
I love this stuff!! I have the one with the green in it and I think it's great for redness then I really like how the other four are different shades so I can blend for my perfect color. I found that all five colors are very pigmented and blend out really nice ( I just use my finger.) I can use this for under my eyes without it looking caky or settling into lines or for covering up discoloration. The packaging is cute and slim so it's great for traveling but for almost $40 it is made of plastic and feels kind of cheap, but other then that great product I would buy it again

Mascara -MAC - Haute & Naughty Lash
SammiXo 7/31/2012 5:43:00 PM
I got this mascara a few days ago and I'm still not to sure if I like it. I tend to use the purple end first sense it kind of makes my lashes clumpy and then the pink end to help get the clumps out and give it a better look. Yes this make my lashed longer and look fuller but it gives me raccoon eyes.

Powder -MAC - Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation
SammiXo 7/31/2012 5:33:00 PM
I am an NC35 and I absolutely love this powder. Its great for when I really don't feel like putting on a foundation and a powder and I'm usually always in a hurry in the morning so this helps out so much. It's also medium to full coverage so on day were I need a little more coverage I can get it with this. I will repurchase this forever :)

Crème -MAC - Studio Tech
SammiXo 7/31/2012 5:28:00 PM
I am an NW25 in this and I really really love this stuff. I use it all over my face with a foundation brush when I feel I need a full coverage look,but most of the time I use it as a concealer and then put the studio fix over it and they both work very well together. The only bad thing is that I have only been using it for a few weeks now and have already have used a lot of product and wilL probably hit pan soon. Other then that I would buy this again.

Lip Treatments -Hard Candy - Tinted Lip Balm - All
SammiXo 7/5/2012 6:10:00 PM
I love these!!! My lips always seem to get dried out a lot when it comes to lip balms/tints etc. But not these!!! I love them they are so cute and moisten my dry lips. I have two of them and I would buy more seeing the fact that they both work amazingly and are cheap.

Eyeliner -Hard Candy - Walk the Line Liquid Eyeliner
SammiXo 7/5/2012 5:58:00 PM
I am typically a gel eyeliner person but I really love hard candy products and I decided to give it a try. I got the color asphalt which is very black just the way I like it. I actually like the brush it came with and didn't seem to have any trouble applying. I also love the packaging, its so cute! The only compliant I have is that if your in a hurry DO NOT use this liner. It takes awhile to dry and if you blink before its dry it will get all over your eye. Other then that though I love this liner and would buy it again.

Blush -Hard Candy - Fox in a Box - Sweet & Spicy
SammiXo 7/5/2012 5:45:00 PM
I really love this blush!! It gives such a nice glow on my skin and it stays nice throughout the day. I was surprised how pigmented these where for only $6. I also like how it has 4 colors in it, which I usually mix them all together when I apply because the all look gorgeous when mixed. I love the packaging its so cute and it comes with a little brush, I haven't found it very useful and use my own brush. I love this product and I would buy this blush again for sure.

Makeup Brushes -Ecotools - Finishing Kabuki
SammiXo 7/5/2012 5:20:00 PM
I love this Kabuki brush!!! I use it for my foundation and my blush and it just makes everything look so nice. I also carry it with me in my purse if I need a quick touchup and it works perfectly without messing up my makeup. Would buy this brush again, I love ecotools.

Mascara -Maybelline - The Falsies Flared Waterproof
SammiXo 7/3/2012 6:26:00 PM
I love this mascara. I love the volume it gives my lashes and I love how The brush is kinda curved and it makes it easier for me to make my lashes look nice. When you get towards the end though you can tell because the formula starts to get a little clumpy, but since I don't typically wear mascara everyday ( I have long lashes) it seems to last me for a long time. I know I will buy this again because I'm actually working on my third tube now

Eyeliner -Wet 'n' Wild - H2O Proof Liquid Eyeliner
SammiXo 7/3/2012 5:52:00 PM
I'm usually a huge fan of gel liners but wanted to try a liquid liner for something different, and this was pretty cheap so I decided to give it a try. First off it really is water proof and it was a little difficult for me to get off, and I was using a makeup remover. I don't really mind that though because when I get an eyeliner I want it to last all day and stay put. The only thing I really don't like as much is the brush. Since I really couldn't get the brush it came with to do what I wanted to do I used an angled eyeliner brush which helped make my lines more precise.

Eye Primer -Palladio - Herbal Eyeshadow Primer
SammiXo 6/29/2012 6:22:00 PM
I am on my second tube of this stuff and I love it. It goes on so sheer and keeps my shadows looking so nice throughout the day, even if I work out it helps keep them stay put. I have never had a problem with creasing when wearing this primer and I usually do my makeup at about 8 in the morning and don't get home till about 9 or 10 at night and my eye makeup still looks just as good. I don't really care for the packaging as much I would prefer a squeeze tube so I know I'm getting all the product out but other then that I love this stuff and as long as Palladio keeps making It I will keep buying it.

Lips -Palladio - Tinted Lip Balm
SammiXo 6/29/2012 6:06:00 PM
I got this tinted lip.balm awhile ago in the color cotton candy and I absolutely love it. The color is really nice, its kinda like a baby pink color and its so pretty. To my surprise it was also very moisturizing too. I am so.glad I found this because every lipstick tinted lip balm, or anything like that I could never wear because they would just dry out my lips and then the color would just come off. But not this stuff. I would buy this aging and I also plan to purchase the other colors as well.
