Product: 5/5 Texture: 5/5 Longevity: N/A Application: 5/5 Packaging: 5/5 I heard good things about this product, so I purchased it to try it out. This product is really great for styling your hair with use of flat irons, blow dryers, curling irons, etc... To use, you section your hair and spray over dry hair, then start using your heat styling tool. The scent of the product is pleasant; the texture is lightweight and non-sticky. When used to curl my hair, the product holds the curl very well. When used to straighten my hair, the product leaves me with a sleek, soft, and smooth look. Overall, I would recommend this product and definitely repurchase!

Mascara -MAC - Opulash

Product: 5/5 Texture: 5/5 Longevity: 5/5 Application: 5/5 Packaging: 5/5 Since I ran out of my Fiberwig mascara, I decided to purchase the Opulash mascara to see for myself what the hype is about. So far, I really like this product! Although it has a big brush, when applied the product did not leave me any clumps. The formula is quite wet but similar to Fiberwig. You have to work with one eye at a time because of its formulation. One coat of the mascara left me with a natural look. But if you want drama, go for three coats. My lashes are full of volume and length without any flaking or smudging throughout the day. Like the Fiberwig mascara, it is really easy to remove this mascara, all you need is soap and water. I would definitely recommend and repurchase this product!

Tinted Moisturizer -Laura Mercier - Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 - Oil Free

Product: 5/5 Texture: 5/5 Longevity: 4/5 Application: 5/5 Packaging: 5/5 After doing extensive research about this product, I finally decided to give it a try despite the cost. I was in search for a tinted moisturizer for summer. I am truly impressed by how amazing this tinted moisturizer looks and feels on my face! I was surprised by the coverage this tinted moisturizer gave. It's like my skin but better! I usually avoid tinted moisturizers because of the awful color range (which the run either too pink or too orange on my yellow base Asian skintone). For reference, I'm usually an NC 25-30 in MAC, so Nude was the perfect match. The lasting power of this is a good 5-6 hours with a primer and setting it with a translucent powder. I do not need to blot or touch up at all despite my oily combination skin type because of the oil-free formula. Overall, I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an amazing tinted moisturizer!

Liquid -Christian Dior - Diorskin Nude Hydrating Makeup SPF 10 [DISCONTINUED]
anje1013 4/7/2011 4:31:00 PM
Product: 5/5 Texture: 5/5 Longevity: 5/5 Application: 4/5 Packaging: 4/5 After doing extensive research about this product, I finally decided to give it a try. I am truly impressed by how amazing this foundation looks and feels on my face! It's like my skin but way better! I went into Sephora to match me to my perfect shade. I'm usually an NC 25-30 in MAC, so I narrowed my choices from 21-Linen and 31-Sand (being more suitable for Asian skintones due to yellow undertones). I swatched both colors on my neck and walked around for a bit... When I came to decide which color I was 21-Linen was a perfect match while 31-Sand was to dark/orange! I am glad that I allowed the time to walk around before making my decision of choosing my color because it did oxidize a bit. The lasting power of this is a good 12 hours with a primer, I did not need to blot or touch up at all despite my oily combination skin type. Overall, I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an amazing foundation!
