Mascara -Smashbox - Full Exposure
hondafan1122 3/25/2013 3:27:00 PM
Just as everyone else is saying - it's just a regular mascara. I know some drug-store products that are better. As others have said, the pros are that it doesn't clump or flake. It just didn't impress me. After curling my eyelashes and putting this on, it really didn't even look like I had mascara on at all. I gave it to my mother, and she felt the same way about it. I think this is one you'd have to use in combination with another brand/formula.

Eye Makeup Remover -Nuance by Salma Hayek - Cucumber & Rose Dual Phase Makeup Remover
hondafan1122 3/19/2013 1:37:00 PM
Love this eye makeup remover! I think out of the non-prestige lines, this eye makeup remover is my favorite! Makes me feel good when I look at the cotton ball/square and see so much eye makeup/mascara on the cotton ball or square. It does not make my skin around the eye area feel oily or greasy at all. With some other brands, I can "remove" my eye makeup, then shower, and come out and see runny mascara on my eyes after, but with Salma Hayek's eye makeup remover, it removes it all! I definitely recommend!

Mascara -Korres - Provitamin B5 & Rice Bran Mascara
hondafan1122 2/23/2013 2:23:00 PM
I love this mascara! I love all Korres products that I have tried. This mascara does not clump or flake. I highly recommend. This might just be my HG mascara. Very natural looking, and you could definitely build/layer it if you desire a more dramatic look. This is a perfect mascara both for work and going out.

Primer/ Corrector -Smashbox - Photo Finish Primer
hondafan1122 12/14/2012 12:59:00 AM
I don't really know what all the hype is about this product. I know it's "award winning" but I don't like it one bit. The consistency is a bit weird, and it gets to the point where it stops coming out of the pump. I've had to take off the pump and try and get some primer directly out of the bottle using a q-tip. It feels weird when I try and put my foundation on top of it. I gave my bottle away to a family member who said she didn't mind using the rest of it...

Powder -Studio Gear - Powder Foundation
hondafan1122 12/14/2012 12:53:00 AM
I liked this foundation! Once I went into ULTA, and the Studio Gear representative was in town. She tried this on me and I loved it. I bought one, and am sad that I have finished it. When the rep tried it on me, she sprayed a little bit of water on her brush (from a water bottle) before applying some of the loose powder foundation on me. Once I purchased it, I would use it the same way and I loved it. What I would usually do is put my liquid foundation on first, then a bit of this powder foundation (again, with a slightly wet brush). I wish more came in the container... I highly recommend!

Cleansers -Lancome - Creme Radiance
hondafan1122 11/25/2012 8:07:00 PM
Wow, had a sample of this cleanser and it lasted forever! A little bit goes a long way. I loved it! It was not drying at all (for me). I like cleansers that you feel are actually cleansing your face, and this is one of those. Lathers up just enough. I loved it, highly recommend it.

One of my favorite colors ever, if not my favorite!! Gorgeous victorian rose/purple type color. Had a metallic silver sheen too. Love it! Looks pretty with silver specked glitter topcoat. Good for work, or going out...

Ewww, way to fragrance-y. Way too perfumey (pardon my made up words). I don't like using things with so much fragrance on my face! Yuck!

Cleansers -Bliss Labs - clog-dissolving cleansing milk
hondafan1122 6/7/2012 1:35:00 AM
This is a great product! I love it. I bought it on clearance and fell in love with it! Usually I like cleansers that suds up, that way I feel like it's really cleansing my face and taking the dirt, oil and makeup that is on my face. This one doesn't get sudsy, but I love it! It is so gentle, doesn't dry out my skin, and feels like it takes the day off my face and neck! I highly recommend it!

Eye Makeup Remover -Bobbi Brown - Eye Makeup Remover
hondafan1122 5/30/2012 3:16:00 PM
Love this eye makeup remover! I have tried so many different brands, and this turned out to be one of my favorites! I like trying different brands of eye makeup removers, because it is something you'll always use (or should), so its something I buy when I find out about a new brand I haven't tried. From the first time I opened this bottle, I loved it! One of my favs, other than Philosophy's Just Release Me...

Eye Makeup Remover -Boots - Organic Face Nourishing Eye Make up Remover
hondafan1122 11/15/2011 12:53:00 AM
This didn't work for me either. I don't even use waterproof mascara, I only use regular mascara, and this didn't take anything off! I think what I am going to have to do is use this one first, and use one of my trusty ones after. I guess some products work for some people and not for others...

Eye Makeup Remover -Bliss Labs - Eye Makeup Remover
hondafan1122 10/19/2010 1:29:00 AM
This product was just okay. It wasn't the worst I've tried, but it also wasn't the best. I like the texture/consistency, and also the fact that it's not oily, but it didn't remove all of my eye makeup. I end up having to use another brand after I use this one.

Love love love this lip balm. For a couple years now, I had been having issues with dry lips. I have been buying lip balms consistently and havenot been as happy with the others as I was with this one. I only have a couple days of it left and I can't find it anywhere. I had bought it at Ulta but they no longer have any! I love this and highly recommend it!
