I LOVE this stuff so much it's like my hair saviour! I have insanely dry and damaged hair but this works amazing and fixes it like magic. I wash my hair 3 times a week and use this after I shampoo, keeping it on 5 mins and use my regular conditioner after I rinse the mask out. When I comb my hair after my shower it's amazingly soft and it smells so good. Seriously, this is a life saver for my hair and it's a great price as well.

Concealers -Maybelline - Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles
rated 4 of 5

Personally I love this concealer. I've used a lot of high end and low end concealers; gel, cream, you name it. This has been my favourite because it suits my skin tone (I'm extremely pale), the consistency is just right, it stays on under my foundation-I use Revlon Colorstay, and it covers amazingly. First time wearing it out I definitely noticed a difference between my other concealers and this one stayed on much cleaner and way longer. It only cost me $10 so this is pretty much my new all time fave. I'd recommend it to anyone that asked!

Shampoo -Mane 'n Tail - Shampoo
rated 5 of 5

LOVE this stuff! Got it for $8.00/1L bottle each at Wal-Mart. I started using this about 4 months ago, I used it with the conditioner and I tried it for 2 months straight and my hair was so much stronger and shinier, and even softer after that. I tried this because I heard about the hype that it made your hair grow, nothing will magically make your hair grow... there are products that make your hair healthier and stronger, so it resists breakage and that's what this product does, and that's how it gets long using this! My hair has grown almost 2 inches since I started using this, which I'm SO happy about. I stopped using this for 2 months, used other shampoos and conditioners but they didn't do what this stuff did. I started using this shampoo with the conditioner again this week, and already I'm seeing a difference in my hair. Soft, thicker, healthier, and I'm sure it will start growing faster again. Yeah, I love this stuff. Anyone even debating using it, do it. :)

Eyeliner -Pixi - waterproof gel liner
rated 4 of 5

I don't know if I'd agree that this is a waterproof product, but it does stay on my eyelids as long as I want it to. I found this at Marshall's for $7.99 which I believe is nearly half the retail price? So I was of course obligated to buy this and try it out since my other Maybelline gel liner had been total crap. I was really surprised and happy with the results of this gel liner, it's very black, although not as opaque as I'd like, but it does have good pigmentation. Overall I like this gel liner and would buy it again.

Blush -Revlon - Powder Blush - Love That Pink
rated 4 of 5

Not sure why everyone hates this blush, I love it! I'm extremely fair skinned so maybe it shows up on my skin a bit better than others. The pigmentation is actually quite evident on me, so maybe this is why I like it so much. It doesn't show up too, too much but it gives a cute little pink glow. It has shimmer in it which I'm okay with considering I don't wear any other shimmery products on my face. I bought this at a warehouse sale for Revlon products and got it for $5 and figured I needed a new blush and this pink is super pretty. The pink looks totally different from any picture I've seen, it's very cutie pink in person. I've had it for around 2 months now and there is barely a dent in the powder, and I use this everyday. I feel like a little porcelain doll when I wear this blush. I'm very happy with it and will purchase it again!

Concealers -MAC - Studio Finish Concealer
rated 3 of 5

This was an okay product. I bought it hoping it would cover imperfections but it ended up always looking cakey and heavy. I'm not sure why I bought this over the gel/liquid concealers but I just wanted to try something new. I'm glad I did try this because I did find out that my skin is not compatible with this type of concealer! It was good coverage but for my skin I definitely prefer and will be going back to a more gel consistency concealer.

Liquid -Revlon - ColorStay Makeup
rated 5 of 5

Love love LOVE this foundation. I wear the colour 110 Ivory, it is a bit too dark for my skin because I am basically white but I mix it with MAC Face and Body foundation in white, and this makes my perfect colour. Revlon Colorstay has excellent coverage and it is matte, which I love, and it stays on all day long without spacing apart or feeling cakey etc. I have been wearing this foundation for almost 3 years now and I'm still in love with it! I buy it at Wal-Mart where it's around $15 and for that price you get a great foundation. I've paid $40 for MAC and Makeup Forever foundations, but I always come back to Colorstay just because it is less money, but it also works well with my skin and never breaks me out or anything. I just love it.

Mascara -L'Oreal - Voluminous in Carbon Black
rated 5 of 5
sarahalexandria 12/12/2011 12:51:00 PM

Most amazing mascara I've ever used. I've been using this mascara for almost 3 years now, and I won't ever stop using it. I buy this at Wal-Mart and it's only $6 there so the price is great as well as the product itself. I have long eyelashes to begin with, but they aren't very thick so what I look for in a mascara is that it will thicken my lashes along with help lengthen. This mascara does both, it adds heaps of volume (like the name says) and they just look awesome. I will NEVER stop using this! My life saver and go-to mascara.
