Crème -Maybelline - Dream Smooth Mousse
alyssajeanine05 9/22/2012 11:39:00 AM
I actually really like this foundation. For my dry/combination skin it makes it very glowy, and easy to apply.It didn't seem to cakey, but I didn't wear it for long. My only problem is I got a shade way too dark for my skin. I'll have to go back and get the right shade, but the foundation itself was pretty good. I'll update when I get the right shade and wear it more.

Blush -Maybelline - Dream Bouncy Blush
alyssajeanine05 9/22/2012 11:34:00 AM
I was very excited to try this blush, with so much hype at the time of it's reveal, and I must say I was very dissapointed. The blush itself is very small, and too exspensive for a drugstore blush in my opinion. Although the texture is cool, and it's fun to play with, it has close to no pigmentation. I've tried using it on my lips as some people sugested as well, and was again disappointed. It dries weird and makes me look streaky/cakey. I was not a fun. The concept and packaging was great, but the blush itself was a miss.

Moisturizers -Garnier - Moisture Rescue Refreshing Gel-Cream
alyssajeanine05 9/22/2012 11:30:00 AM
I bought this product after watching a review on Youtube and i'm IN LOVE. I'm on my second jar and I'll be buying a third. I have dry to combination skin and this is perfect. It's lightweight, and super mosturizing. A little bit goes a long ways! No, it will not do anything for your acne, but it did not break me out which is a plus. It has a light scent, nothing over powering, and it smoothes into the skin very nicely. ALSO I had a sunburn on my face and put this on that day, woke up the next morning and my suburn was gone and I was left with a perfect glowy tan. I reccomend this product to everyone!! 8 dollars is sooo worth it, and even though it's in a jar, it's still a great product. If you're thinking about it, just go for it!

alyssajeanine05 4/1/2012 11:46:00 AM
I got this product in a 3-Pack along with BeneTint and Possytint (or however you spell them! lol) and I loveeee it!! It is a great highlighter that goes a long ways. The only problem is that if you use too much of it,it can get a little sparkly, but that is like any highlighter. I will most deffintly be buying this product full-size. (:

Makeup Brushes -MAC - 182 Buffer Brush
alyssajeanine05 6/16/2011 12:45:00 PM
I love this brush:) Its so soft & works great, just like every other MAC brush. The only reason I gave 4 lippies overall is because it was SO expensive. $50 made me CRINGE handing it over, but in the end it was worth it.

Fragrances -Paris Hilton - Sheer
alyssajeanine05 6/16/2011 12:43:00 PM
Smells great! It's light and a bit sweet and floral yet sheer enough so it doesn't over power the room. The packaging was good, the price was a tad exspensive but I would buy again. Although the original version was much better, yes there is a difference. (:

Skincare - Body -Hawaiian Tropic - Dark Tanning Oil
alyssajeanine05 6/16/2011 12:37:00 PM
AMAZING PRODUCT. <3 - Smells like cocunuts & vanilla. - Packaging is easy to use with a little squeezy-like top. - I bought it at Wal-Mart for around $9 and its great! It does everything it says it does, and gives you a great dark tan. If you use it basically every time you tan, it's amazing. FOR WARNING: If your pale, don't use this right away. Get a base tan, then use it. Unless you want 2nd degree burns (yes, I got burnt bad the first time using this because i didnt know, and Yes thats how good this stuff works) (:

Blush -Hard Candy - Fox in a Box Spicy & Sweet
alyssajeanine05 6/16/2011 12:27:00 PM
Before I start, lets just say that where I live, people must not be that into makeup because everyone says this product is so hard to find in Walmart, well there was plenty at mine. lol the packaging is adorable & the blush is very pigmented. The brush it comes with is okay, but I would rather use my MAC brushes with it. All in all, it's a great blush. I wish I would have known about this before I lent out $30 for a BeneFit boxed powder. (there the same. Except I would go with Hard Candy because it's cheaper.) (:

Hair -Moroccanoil - Moroccan Oil
alyssajeanine05 4/30/2011 3:34:00 PM
Seeing as my hair is really frizzy, and using so much heat can make it look lifeless and dry, this stuff works amazing. I first discovered it when my hair stylest put it in my hair and I saw a major difference! It makes your hair look soooo shiny & it helps smooth out frizzies. I use this when my hair is damp & after I style my hair for the day. Best stuff ever. Although it is exspensive, but it's worth the price. The bottle is convienant and easy to use and forewarning: a little goes a LONG way with this product. I heard the company just came out with a shampoo and conditioner to go with this. That i'll be trying soon too, because this stuff is my life saver:) BTW if you have really oily hair already then try to stay away from the roots. I don't have a problem with oil, but my friend does and she realized she can't put it in her roots.

Moisturizers -Cetaphil - Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF15
alyssajeanine05 4/10/2011 10:35:00 PM
Before I start I would just like to say I have dry, sensitive skin. So I had no problems with greasy-ness of any sort but if I had oily skin I would not use this product. The smell is a bit off, but it moisturizes great! I felt no burning that other people felt what so ever (and I use proactive 3-step too). It was pretty cheap and it comes in a tube, which is great! My mom tried some when we were on vacation & it sucked for her because she has oily skin. So basically if you have dry, sensitive skin then this moisturizer is heaven for you.

Foundations -Cover Girl - Natureluxe Liquid Silk Foundation
alyssajeanine05 4/10/2011 5:09:00 PM
Before purchasing this product, I checked out the Cover Girl website where I found I could get a free sample of it. The one package was my perfect skintone, and I fell in love. The smell is really good and I love it, it glides on smooth and deffintly makes your skin one color. Though it is lighter coverage, and I have sensitive skin so it broke me out. It left me itchy on my chin, and made red marks and scratches all over my nose and T area zone mostly. I love the product except for it made me break out, so sadly I wont by this again. If you have dry, non-sensitive skin then I think this would be the perfect match for you. **UPDATE** This product was NOT the one to break me out. It was my concealer. Changed concelear, and I am now still using this.It works great:)) Sooo yeah. I reccomend it now that i look back.

This is a beginer's foundation. For starters it cakes...SOOO much. Its got sparkly flecks in it which I personally do not like at all! The packaging is good...and the price is decent but I would not re-purchase this. If your under the age of 16....go for it.
