i needed something that would stay on my face through summer cuz where i live it gets very very hot and humid. everything would slide off :( plus i have oily skin which doesnt help. i've heard and read many reviews of this product and they were mostly all positive. this does stay up on my face all day long even when im sweating alot which is quite amazing. but i've heard this was medium to full coverage...anddd to me, it's more like maybe light to medium coverage. i have tons of hyper pigmentations and scars from acne and blemishes that need to be covered. layering this helps a bit but not much. i still use my concealer for those spots after putting this bb cream. it definitely doesnt feel as heavy as foundations and to me, i think this feels lighter than Missha M bb cream (but i dont have them side by side to really compare, i had missha a year or so ago).Im not so sure if it gets oxidizes but i dont think it does? even if it does, then it's very subtle. this bb cream is a bit gray that it may look really off once you put it on, but it will slowly start to match better. it has spf and whitening effect (as in lightening hyper pigmentation) which are plus plus :D sometimes i skip my moisturizer and solely put this straight ahead. i feel like whitening is working a bit very slowly cuz my scars seem lighter after using this for about a month or two now

Makeup Brushes -E.L.F. - Studio Powder Brush

I was never into spending my money on cheap products cuz they were always waste of money. ppl say you spend 4$ and that's not much of a waste, but i think it is when things add up. ANYWHO reviews of this brush popped up soooooo many times on the front page of MUA and i got really curious and read all the reviews & gave in. THIS BRUSH IS FANTASTIC :D i mean i dont have absolutely expensive brushes to compare or what not, but this brush is amazing! it was like 3 bucks and it does so much more than that. i put concealers (without blending yet) and then sweep my brush on my powder foundation and as i apply my powder, concealers get blended as well. it's like 2 in 1 yayyy it does wonders blending just liquids or powders or whatever you like. i dont think it ever caked up products on my face yet and i've had this for 9 months now. i've recommended this to several of my friends and i promise you they all love it! im thinking of grabbing another to separate one for powder and one for liquids

Cleansers -Olay - Sensitive Skin Foaming Face Wash
diendksi 2/13/2012 1:54:00 PM
Before I say anything, I have oily/combination skin and acne-prone with noticeable pores. After using up my Purpose cleanser, I was looking for a new cleanser that won't strip my skin like Purpose did. I only continued to use Purpose because it took all of my make up off and it didn't break me out. So, I was hunting for a new cleanser similar to Purpose but just more hydrating. I read several reviews on this product and decided to get it at Ulta for like less than 4 bucks or so (that's the only reason I'm giving this a 2). I thought it foamed quite easily, but when I rinsed, my face felt very "hydrated" and waxy/soft kind of feeling. I'm guessing this "hydrating" part is where people say it is really hydrating or others say its leaving a film. I used this for about a week, and I started to get these pimples and whiteheads on my face. I realized how my foundation has gotten oily so much faster, and it's the same foundation that I've been using with previous cleansers. I had purchased Origins' Checks and Balances in case Olay might not work, so I used Origins after noticing the effect Olay was having on my skin. When I switched for 2 days, all those troubles on my skin calmed down and came back normal; to me, it doesn't seem like Origins is leaving a film on my face.I haven't decided if I'm going to keep Origins or go back to Purpose, but I know for sure I'm not continuing with Olay :(

Masks -Biore - Self - Heating Mask

I personally think they should put more mask stuff in the package but I guess tha'ts because I'm cheap :) haha I got this at CVS when I was looking for a mask for deep cleansing, prevent acne, balancing out oils etc etc I really like the self-heating feel. of course, that can be just me I don't think it gives an OBVIOUS difference or anything but the good thing is I didn't get any troubles using this I think it sort of reduced my pimples my skin felt really soft after using this and that was noticeable ;] Im sorta 50% for recommending this because it doesnt show a huge difference or anything but it still gives a sneaky impact (good one) that you just feel like your skin looks and feels better but you dont exactly know what it is
