Gels/Soaps -Aveeno - Moisturizing Bar
mellymel11 5/21/2013 9:17:00 AM
I love this bar..it's gentle and moisturizing. And it smells nice in my opinion. I use it all over. Its even gentle enough for my lady parts..i know too much information but i was recommended this soap by doctor. The only thing i would change is that the bar deteriorates quicker then other soap bars. If left in water it will become a gooepy mess. And its price its 3.49 for a bar of soap but i stock up during sales. Will continue to buy.

Treatments -It's a 10 - Miracle Leave in Product
mellymel11 5/17/2013 7:25:00 PM
I tried this mostly because of the hype on you tube. And i received a small bottle of thus when a new ulta opened in my neighborhood. At first i loved it...it made my hair silky shiny and my curls frizz free. It was the first leave in product I ever used. But after buying a larger bottle and comparing it to giovannie leave in conditioner i realized this product is too heavy for my hair. I had much more fall out when i wash my hair with its a 10 then the giovanni organic one.So i will not repurchase.

Mascara -Jordana - Best Lash Extreme Volumizing Mascara
mellymel11 5/17/2013 7:10:00 PM
Yes the price is right for this mascara and i read the reviews. Unfortunately it didn't deliver for me. The package is the majority of the problem. There isn't a stopper to remove the excess product on the wand. I have to scrape the want against the sides of the bottle. The mascara does thicken the lashes but after two coats there its clumping. And after an hour or two it smudges. Its good as a base mascara with covergirl clump crusher on top but i am not the type to layer mascara.

Moisturizers -Neutrogena - Healthy Skin Face Lotion with SPF 15
mellymel11 5/17/2013 9:25:00 AM
I purchased this product because the powder i was using didn't have spf. And I need to have some protection from the sun. This cream is a nice consistency and is moisturizinf. This has no scent that offenses me nor does it irritate my skin. Will repurchase...in fact i purchased the one with spf 35. It is a bit pricey its about 12 or 13 dollars.But you save the money on purchasing a separate sunscreen for your face.

Mascara -Rimmel - Glameyes Day2Night mascara
mellymel11 3/10/2013 11:57:00 PM
This mascara packaging had some definite potential but the formula did not. The volume brush was completely covered in brushed. I had to scrap the brush again the tube to remove the excess product. And it made my lashes clump together. The lengthening brush did nothing to separate my lashes. And this mascara flaked and irritated my eyes and lastly it was a pain to remove. A huge Nooooo to this product.

Concealers -Maybelline - Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles
mellymel11 3/10/2013 9:38:00 PM
I like this concealer..is thin and blendable. This concealer also doesn't crease or settle into fine lines .i use this on my under eye circles. I don't really like the sponge applicator but it does help spread the product. I got the color i chose was a touch too light..so i will repurchase in the medium shade when this is finish.

Powder -Neutrogena - Mineral Sheers Compact Foundation ALL
mellymel11 1/28/2013 3:04:00 PM
I purchased this powder to have a cheaper drugstore alternative to my clinique super balance powder..thus was actually a better color match for me because is more yellow tone then clinique. But i won't purchase it again because it clogged my pores. It caused blackheads on my nose and chin. And for 12 dollars its not that cheap.

Lipstick -Revlon - Revlon Super Lustrous-Sassy Mauve
mellymel11 1/18/2013 9:13:00 AM
Let me start off by saying that I love the formula of this lipstick..its creamy and moisturizing. Sometimes I forget I have it on. Unfortunately this color only looks good on me when I pat it to my lips...if applied with a heavy hand the purple undertones shine through. I will purchase more colors from this line

This mascara dried out my lashes and was very difficult to remove. I would use a eye makeup remover and then wash my face and it will still be coming off. I ptefer cover girl mascaras

Eye Shadow -Maybelline - Eyestudio quad - Copper Chic
mellymel11 7/8/2012 9:17:00 PM
These shadows are very pigmented especially for drugstore. I wish there was a matte shade but its okay I can always use something from my collection. My favorite shade is the second shade the peachy coral color. Very pretty palette for the summer

Eye Shadow -Clinique - Quick Eyes Cream Eye Shadow (All)
mellymel11 7/5/2012 9:17:00 AM
I received a sample of this in a gift with purchase in the gold color. I really didn't think much of it because I am not a fan of cream shadows....but I really like this eyeshadow. Its so quick to apply and a little bit goes a long way. It really helps a gold shadow pop and lasts all day. Its my staple for summer!

Lip Gloss -NYX - MegaShine in Natural - 122
mellymel11 2/24/2012 9:29:00 AM
This is the first lip gloss that I ever purchased from nyx. This color is mlbb color; very natural looking just like the name states. The texture is is nice not sticky or too slicky feeling. I can get past the artificial cherry smell..but I just can stand that it don't last on my lips. I understand its a gloss and its not meant to last but I can't contribute that much time to reapplying gloss. I feel like it lasts..maybe fifteen minutes. Its a pity because the color suits me but I prefer my buxom or revlon lipglosses.

Crème -L'Oreal - magic smooth souffle
mellymel11 1/4/2012 9:14:00 PM
This is a foundation I was always curious about and I found it for half price so it was my chance to try it. I might have purchased a color too dark for me but aside from that this foundation accentuated every pore I have. It was hideous. Will never wear it out. It was very light feeling on the skin and pretty package but that's it for me.

Concealers -MAC - Select Moisturecover
mellymel11 12/25/2011 9:59:00 PM
I had a makeup artist at mac color matched me. He matched me as NW20 and I purchased this specifically for undereye coverage. The color is perfect for the undereye discoloration and the texture is thin and moisterizing and easy to apply. However I would not repurchase this because it creases after two hours and settles into fine lines. Its annoying to have to reblend. I learned to let the concealer dry a bit before blending for better coverage from youtube guru sarahvictor. I will finish it but the search continues
