Probably one of the best bronzers I have used. I am a blush bronzer horder and this one has to be in my top 2 (Soleil tan de Chanel being my HG) But this on top of it give the most amazing sunkiss glow. I prefer this over my Nars and too faced bronzers. It does have some shimmer but It doesn't look very obvious when applied. If you are looking for a nice bronzer this is it! Its about $15, but most stores will have PF on sale from time to time. Got mine for 40% off! Check this one out, it won't disappoint!

Crème -Maybelline - Dream Smooth Mousse

Love the way this looks and feels on my skin. If you want a med coverage yet light foundation check this one out. What I don't like about this foundation is the color range, its horrible. They don't have enough colors for med tan skin, I use beige but its a little to light for me, I get pretty tan in the summer, so I wont be able to use this foundation, I also hate how they all seem to have pink undertones. I think if you are lighter skinned you will have better luck finding the perfect shade.

Hair Color -L'Oreal - HiColor High Lift Hair Color
rated 3 of 5
xoxjulie21xox 4/3/2012 6:46:00 PM

Color bought: Soft Brown My hair color: Dark brown I bought this because a girl I know recently dyed her hair I believe she used Light cool brown, and It came out amazing! The reason why I didn't do cool brown because I felt like It would be to light for me, so I went with the next shade up Soft brown. I did my ends first and let them sit for about 30 min and then went on and did my roots, left It on there for another 15 min. It did lighten my hair, but not to the color i was hoping for. My hair is so hard to lift that it didn't surprise me. It really only lightened it about 3 shades. I might repurchase this in the light cool brown maybe then it might change it to a better color, but probably not for a while. So much for trying to be a kitchen Beautician lol

Lasting fragrance!!!! I forgot I had this in my purse (sample size bottle) sprayed 1 spritz just on my arm and it lasted all day even when I went to the gym and sweated my butt off on the stairmaster. 1 spritz is really all you need. Its def one of those perfumes that will have people asking what you are wearing because it smells so good.

Liquid -L'Oreal - True Match Super-Blendable Makeup SPF 17

LOVE this foundation, great quality and price. This foundation to me is med coverage, you can build it up but if you use to much it starts to look a little cakey. This is my go to foundation for daytime since its lightweight. I usually only use my "higher end" foundation when going out, but I find myself reaching for this one when going out. It is photo friendly and when used with the ELF flat top brush gives a flawless finish. I have already repurchased this foundation 3 times. For reference I use W6, and have combo skin.

Lipstick -MAC - Candy Yum-Yum

What else can I say about this product that already hasn't been said, Its a great bright matte pink that looks amazing !!!! This sold out like crazy in my area so I was a little bummed that I wasnt able to get my hands on it. When I went to Reno, NV for a weekend getaway we went to the mall and of course i had to stop by MAC, lucky for me they still had a few left, I picked this up and Playing Koi (a beautiful peachy nude color) I wore candy yum yum out that night with some falsies and some winged liner, it looks amazing, it wasnt to bright but at the same thing it made heads turn! Great lipstick, I will be wearing a lot more once summer hits!

xoxjulie21xox 2/17/2011 9:10:00 PM

HG HG HG!!!! Move over Nars Laguna, this has become my HG bronzer!!!! All I can say is wow! I bought this in a blog sale for $1 in shade 02, its not orangey or muddy, Im NC25-30 right now in the winter, with a quick dusting on my face It gives such am amazing glow, I only bought this because it was only a $1 and I was looking for another bronzer, I was actually looking into buying a chanel bronzer, but now that i found this I don't see myself buying another bronzer for a while. If you are in the same skin color range as me I highly recommend this!

Concealers -Hard Candy - Glamoflauge Concealer

I am a bit of a snob when it comes to concealer, i think its because all of the drugstore brands i tried have failed. After hearing a bunch of good things about this concealer and seeing it at walmart i decided to give this a try. Its amazing! you only need a tiny bit and it will cover your whole face! I tried this under my eyes and it was better then my BB corrector! I would buy this again, but I don't see this running out anytime soon!

How do i feel about this l/s? eh its nice but not something I would need a backup of since this is a LE. You really do have to make sure you exfoliate your lips before applying this or you will notice every dry crack in your lips, like a previous reviewer said, it looks best when you conceal your natural lip color.

It's about time MAC comes out with a good foundation. I am a foundation whore I have over 15+ right now. I don't think I will be buying anymore anytime soon, this foundation is amazing it's med- heavy coverage and actually last like it says it does. I was skeptical to try this but after hearing raves about it on here i had to give it a shot! Amazing amazing amazing foundation, if your looking for buildable coverage and a foundation that really does last 12+ hours then try this one out!

Hands down one of my favorite perfumes!!!!! Every single time I wear this I get asked what I'm wearing. It does last, you only need a few sprays. I sprayed it on a jacket and a few days later I could still smell it on my jacket. You must try this next time you go to the department store!

Powder -Chanel - Double Perfection Compact

I really do like this powder, however I think I like my maybelline Dream matte powder a little bit better. Its a great finely milled powder that doesn't look cakey, its just not the cheapest. So if your looking for a great powder that wont look powdery and don't care how much it cost, then give this one a try!

Blush -MAC - Matte Blush - Darkly My Dear

I LOVE this blush!!! It looks so boring in the pan, so when this collection first came out i didn't buy it right away. About a week later i went into mac to pick up something and i was looking at this collection again. The MA told me that it was a really pretty blush but i thought it looked pretty dull, i said what the heck ill just buy it because i know i might end up regreting it. Well a few days later i pulled this blush out contoured with laguna bronzer and added my dior amber diamond as a highlight and WOW it looked amazing! Needless to say i am hooked on this blush i cannot wait to keep using it!

I went into mac looking for a red lipstick, i really dont have a nice red lipstick, i was looking at a few of them and the MA suggested this one. I bought everything i wanted from the VV collection and this wasnt one of them. As soon as i applied this lipstick i fell in love! it was the perfect red for me even my bf who doesnt know anything about makeup said it looked great! Im very happy i tried this before it got sold out!
