I wear this over EL Double wear. Sets my makeup perfectly and I do stay matte. Don't have to take it with me for touchups, doesn't look cakey. Great powder! Wish the packaging was better though.

Liquid -Estee Lauder - Double Wear
ericaleigh777 1/23/2012 10:36:00 PM
Found my perfect shade match, have never had that before...Lasts all day, hides large pores and blackheads on nose. Looks like you are a doll. I have super oily skin and this will stay on from 7am to 10pm without meltdown. I am in love! I thought colorstay was good. Pssshh! This has it beat all to heck. I'm never looking back.

Mascara -Revlon - Lash Fantasy Mascara
ericaleigh777 3/24/2011 3:28:00 PM
Got this product on sale for about 2$ at a Walgreens. I had went on a vacation and accidentally left my makeup at home. (Long story) So I just needed something cheap and effective to use for 3 days til I got back home. I unfortunately hated this mascara. It made me look like I had spider eyelashes. It also made them look stick straight when they are normally pretty naturally curled. I would have rather went without mascara than worn this. It also flaked pretty badly too. I'm going to try the primer with other mascaras and see what happens. Will update later with results. But so far I say save your 2$!

Powder -Neutrogena - mineral sheers mineral powder foundation-fair to light
ericaleigh777 3/15/2010 8:14:00 PM
This mineral makeup is pretty good I used this when I first got in college before I had gotten into makeup. It had pretty good coverage and lasted pretty well on my oily skin. Downsides: Not a lot of colors. Hard to find a match. You have to pump this little plastic thing up and down to get the product to come out and it takes forever. You cannot wash the brush attached to it. You just have to keep using it dirty everyday until it's empty. So bad packaging, but decent price and decent makeup. I would purchase this again if I could find a shade that matched me now. I included a picture of me wearing this. Hope this helps.

Conditioner -Aussie - Moist Conditioner
ericaleigh777 3/7/2010 2:32:00 AM
This conditioner is ok. I will only pick it up if my store is sold out of Herbal Essences in the blue bottle, can't remember the name but it's the one that smells like coconut. It's an awesome conditioner...this one the other hand is not. And for some reason it seems like everytime I get a bottle of this the quality has gotten worse and worse over time (over the past 3 or 4 years). The price is good, the packaging is very cheap. I accidentally dropped it off the side of my tub and the cap broke off immediately. So when I went on a trip later that week even though the cap would click back together the conditioner still leaked all over my bag. Luckily, I had it in a plastic bag separate from everything else but still.... As far as moisturizing...it feels fantastic while it is on and feels like it is really hydrating and moisturizing but after you rinse it out your hair feels sooooo brittle and dry and tangles horribly. My hair normally tangles a lot but man it was a mess after using this. I am finishing up the bottle but after that I will not repurchase again. This past bottle has finally made me decide to give up on it. Like I said each bottle I get seems to get worse and worse. It made my hair break off badly. I do not recommend this. And will be finding another conditioner to grab just in case Herbal Essences is sold out again. I gave it a 2 because the smell is nice, it feels nice while it's on and the price is good, other than that there are no benefits.

Lotions/ Creams -Palmers - Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula
ericaleigh777 3/6/2010 10:37:00 PM
Have used this lotion for over 10 years now. Overall rating 5 Price is fairly reasonable, packaging is good, only complaint I have with that is that the bigger bottle with the pump, well the pump doesn't work too well. It clogs up and everything quite easily so I like it better without the pump. This is so moisturizing, smell is nice, evens skintone and texture and keeps my super dry skin from peeling. I always have at least 3 or 4 bottles in my house. I use it all over my body after shower.

Lotions/ Creams -Queen Helene - Cocoa Butter Hand and Body Lotion
ericaleigh777 3/6/2010 10:05:00 PM
My dad is in his 80's and swears by this product. He has used it for years and always has at least 3 bottles in the bathroom. lol I used it a lot when I still lived at home because it was always there. It smells nice, like coconut and is ok if you are in a pinch but it really isn't that moisturizing. It's very watery. You feel like you need to reapply it 7 or 8 times a day. I personally like the Palmer's lotion a million times better. If you have normal skin this would probably be nice for you but if you have dry skin I would pass. I also don't like it doesn't have a pump because the bottle is huge and heavy and if your hands are lotion-y and you try to pick it up and drop it on your toe it's gonna hurt. But I do love that it reminds me of my dad. :D

Blush -Revlon - Matte Powder Blush - 002 Blushing Berry
ericaleigh777 3/6/2010 7:16:00 AM
Packaging is lovely, matte just as it says, very smooth formula. My only problem with this is the color. It looks berry in the container but when used on my cheeks it turns an odd orangey shade after a while. Weird and unexplainable. I would not purchase this particular color again. I gave it to my mom who seems to like it much more than me. Oh well, it was on sale at big lots for 2$ so not a big loss. :D
