Lotions/ Creams -Palmers - Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula
asolmsted 12/1/2012 8:55:00 AM
I just got this lotion two weeks ago, and I've been using it everyday! It smells amazing (reminds me of hot chocolate) and it makes my skin so soft! I put it on right out of the shower. The scent is also long lasting, too! I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a good lotion.

Mascara -Lancome - Hypnose
asolmsted 8/18/2012 10:55:00 PM
I have finally found the best mascara ever! Over the years I have tried them all: covergirl lashblast, covergirl lashperfection, maybelline one by one, falsies, full and soft, l'oreal voluminous, Mac haute and naughty, benefit they're real, buxom lash, diorshow, plushlash, and many others! None of them have compared to Lancôme hypnose in my opinion! It goes on nicely and never clumps, and it defines and lengthens my lashes while also adding a sufficient amound of volume. It doesn't smudge either, even in the hot summer weather! I definitely recommend this mascara to anyone who is looking for an awesome makeup bag staple!

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Naked Palette
asolmsted 6/12/2012 5:03:00 PM
I love love loveee Urban Decay. I bought the Naked 2 palette back in February, and I loved the quality and staying power of the colors. However, I found that I really only used a few of the colors in the Naked 2 palette. I was recently at Ulta when I saw the original Naked palette, and I discovered that the colors in the original palette suit me better more than the Naked 2 palette! In my opinion, blondes/people who look better in cooler tones should invest in the Naked 2 palette, while brunettes/people who look better in warmer tones should get the original Naked Palette(:

Mascara -Cover Girl - Lash Blast 24 HR Mascara
asolmsted 1/23/2012 10:21:00 PM
Alright, so I'm a huge fan of the original lashblast volume (orange tube). When I saw this version of the mascara, I was pretty eager to try it. Here are my thoughts: this was a good mascara with amazing staying power, but I'll be sticking with the original lashblast! The smell of this mascara was HORRIBLE (seriously. It was gross). The original lashblast is my go-to, and it will stay my go-to.

Eye Primer -NYX - Eyeshadow Base in Pearl
asolmsted 1/4/2012 7:48:00 PM
I just bought this shadow base a few days ago, and so far I am in love with this product! It really makes my eyeshadows stay longer, and the color looks more intense. It also helps my eyeshadow stay put throughout the day (even after jogging three miles). I haven't experienced any creasing as other users have mentioned... Maybe they're using too much? I dont use a ton of this product on my lids, so a little goes a long way! I also love how it's so inexpensive and the packaging looks nice. I will definitely be dropping by ulta again soon to buy the other bases(:

Mascara -Cover Girl - Lash Blast
asolmsted 12/29/2011 7:48:00 PM
This mascara is an old favorite of mine. I've tried almost every mascara under the sun, and this is a constant in my beauty bag. I used this a ton last summer, and had few complaints! I found that it never smudged, and it kept my lashes looking nice and defined. It does add volume, and a little bit of length like it says it will. I'm not a huge fan of the packaging, however, (it looks like a gaudy carrot to me!) But overall, I do like this mascara because it does its job well. I have used higher end mascaras that I have liked more, but since I'm in high school I like buying cheaper mascaras to save money. This mascara is usually around 9 dollars, which isn't super cheap but isn't too expensive either. Overall, I would definitely repurchase this and recommend it to my friends!(:

Mascara -Cover Girl - Lash Perfection Volumizing Mascara
asolmsted 11/27/2011 12:39:00 AM
At first I wasn't sure if I would like this mascara, because I've never been a huge fan of Lash Blast. Anyway, I absolutely LOVE it after trying it out for the first time yesterday. It separated my lashes beautifully, and made them longer and fuller. I only needed two coats, and clumping was never an issue. Also, I really like the packaging. It looks chic and not as chunky as the orange Lash Blast tube. The brush on this mascara was also very impressive, and the smell of the product wasn't nearly as bad as most mascaras smell. I would definitely repurchase this and recommend it to my friends!

Lip Treatments -Maybelline - Baby Lips lip balm
asolmsted 11/25/2011 10:11:00 AM
I just bought this today in Quenched and I absolutely love it! The smell is hard to describe, but it's summery and light in my opinion. I really like how this lip balm moisturizes my lips a lot, and that it's also reasonably priced! The tint is sheer, but it has a pretty sparkle, so I can wear it anywhere. Overall I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a cheap lip balm that actually works.

Eyes -Urban Decay - Lush Lash System
asolmsted 10/26/2011 8:14:00 PM
This product worked super well for me!! Within one week, I saw longer lashes. It definitely lengthened more than it thickened my lashes, but I did see an increase in lash thickness around the fourth week of use. Even though it says it works over six weeks, I still had 1/3 of the serum left, so I continued using it and still got better results! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for longer, prettier lashes. The best part is that no irritation or other weird side effects occurred!

Lip Gloss -Ulta - Tinted Lip Balm - Melon

Love this lipbalm! However, it seems more like a lipstick than a lipbalm, but the colors are super pretty!
