I've tried lots of mascaras, and I just keep coming back to this one! Yes, the brush is large but I really like and appreciate that. It smells faintly of roses and to me it truly feels luxe. Lots of people aren't impressed with this mascara, but I am a superfan! I use 2-3 coats and makes my eyelashes big, bold, and nicely separated. perfection :)

Not only have I hit pan on this, but I have used it so much that I only have small, broken pieces left! I think this color is absolutely fabulous, long lasting and universally flattering. My cousin and I (with different skin tones) both purchased and it looks great on both of us. This is one of my favorite blushes and it will be yours too!

LOVE this product! Coverage is buildable, though I find that the first layer works well enough for me. I was matched to porcelain (wow I'm pale) and I wear it over primer and under a light dusting of pressed foundation. This gives me the perfect look and I can't rave enough about this product. It feels so natural on, blends easily and I will definitely be buying again :)

Tinted Moisturizer -BeneFit Cosmetics - You Rebel Lite Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15

I'm a firm believer that if you label a product a Tinted MOISTURIZER than the product should actually provide some moisture! That being said, this product was a sever disappointment. If I wanted something heavy and cakey then I would have purchased a foundation or something equally awful. This is difficult to blend and doesn't feel quite natural on. I went to Laura Mercier TM and never looked back.

I really wanted to love this product. I have been a DiorShow addict for years but took a chance on this one. While I don't hate it, I find that this product clumps on me in a heartbeat. I am fairly above average in makeup and makeup application, but I have to really try hard to not clump this. The brush is okay and I like how black this mascara is, but I won't be buying this again.
