Mascara -L'Oreal - Voluminous Million Lashes
xxxstrzxx 8/17/2011 10:19:00 PM
I was a bit skeptical at first to purchase this product because very many of the beauty gurus on youtube were promoting this, especially some I don't trust. Anyways, I went ahead and purchased it because I had a coupon. I was amazed to find that I absolutely adored this product! It really lengthens my lashes and separates them really well without clumping.

Powder -Revlon - ColorStay Aqua Mineral Makeup
xxxstrzxx 4/24/2011 9:51:00 PM
This is by far one of the worst products I have ever used from Revlon aside from their polishes. The sparkles were not the issue for me, it was the coverage. It was like I put nothing on my face. It also failed to cover the slight redness I have in some parts of my face. This is for people who have flawless skin because it doesn't cover or even out skin.

Mascara -Too Faced - Lash Injection
xxxstrzxx 4/24/2011 3:29:00 PM
I got this mascara in one of the two faced theme kits. I was surprised at how well this works because mascaras never really wow me. I applied one coat of this and noticed a big difference. It really volumized and lengthened my medium length lashes. I applied a second coat and it made them pop even more. However, the downside is that it can get clumpy and it is super hard to remove. I would say this does almost the same type of work as the Maybelline Falsies, but too faced lash injection is thicker. Overall, I would recommend this for those who want a dramatic look and don't mind clumps.

Lipstick -MAC - Satin - Pink Nouveau
xxxstrzxx 4/17/2011 12:58:00 AM
I am afraid of bright colors on my lips because I feel like it attracts more attention to my big nose. I really like pink and nude lipsticks and I wanted to give this one a try. Like the previous reviewer I lined my lips using soar lipliner by mac, then I filled in the rest of my lip with the Insynch lipliner that just repromoted with the Quite Cute collection (it is now permanent). After preparing the base for the lipstick I applied it onto my lips right out of the tube and blotted. I didn't put gloss over it just because I don't like sticky lips. I actually think it might have looked better with gloss over it to give it a bit of a pop. This is a great midtone, neon pink color that I think would compliment any skintone.

Liquid -Estee Lauder - Double Wear 
xxxstrzxx 4/17/2011 12:52:00 AM
For some reason I have mixed feelings about this product. Ok, so super plus was that it lasted all day and did not budge!!! I have oily skin and most makeup begins to separate 7-8 hours into my day. I have 13 hour days at school and I am always looking for a foundation that can last all day. This foundation gets 5 stars for staying power. However, it did not make my skin look flawless. The foundation sunk into my pores and accentuated my fine lines. I felt like it made me look like I had aged ten years. The color range is not to great either, idk if the lady mismatched me but I am an nc35 and she matched me to sand which was way to light, I told her I was closer to tawny but she didn't listen to me. Anyways, the foundation outlasted revlon colorstay, mac prolongwear, and dior forever. So if you have a poreless complexion and want all day wear I would recommend this foundation.

Gels/Soaps -Neutrogena - Body Clear Body wash

I don't have body acne but I figured this stuff would prevent it and exfoliate a bit. I didn't like it. I felt it left a film on my skin and dried it out. Would not repurchase.

Polishes -OPI - Mod About You
xxxstrzxx 4/16/2011 11:35:00 AM
This pink is to die for! I saw it on a girl in class and asked her what color it was and she didn't know. So I went to search for it. This was the color!!! I was so happy to find it. It is an opaque blue based bright/light pink. Looks great on every skintone especially tan!!! great spring color.

Polishes -OPI - Light My Sapphire
xxxstrzxx 4/16/2011 11:33:00 AM
This color was ok. It is a shimmery purple/ gray color. I hated that fact that the first coat was so sheer and you need atleast 3 coats for it to look opaque.

Misc Beauty Tools -Unlisted Brand - Plus White - 5 Minute Speed Whitening Gel
xxxstrzxx 4/16/2011 11:32:00 AM
I have been using this stuff for years and people always ask me if my teeth are real or veniers. I like this more than the crest whitestrips because it delivers the same results for only a fraction of the price. It also doesn't make your teeth super sensitive and achy.

Scrubs -Murad - AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser
xxxstrzxx 4/16/2011 11:31:00 AM
After reading reviews here on MUA I decided to give this a try. I didn't really notice a difference in my skin or acne scars. For the price I expected much more.

Scrubs -St. Ives - Elements Microdermabrasion
xxxstrzxx 4/16/2011 11:30:00 AM
This was better than their apricot scrub, fine grains were great and really helped to exfoliate. I felt like the ingredients were not powerful enough and the smell gave me a headache. I am very sensitive to fresh scents and citrus scents.

Scrubs -St. Ives - Apricot Scrub
xxxstrzxx 4/16/2011 11:28:00 AM
I have tried to love this stuff on so many different occasions but I can't. The grains are way too big and the cream it is mixed with is way too oily. It did kind of exfoliate my skin, but would not repurchase, there are better scrubs out there.

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Dallas

This is probably the only benefit boxed blushes that I absolutely love! The color is great on my medium nc35 skintone. It gives me a bronzy glow. I cant really describe the color, its like a bronze/plum/ peach. Really nice for summer :)

Treatments -Biore - Ultra Deep Cleansing pore strips
xxxstrzxx 4/16/2011 11:25:00 AM
I tried to make this stuff work for me but it just didn't. I have large pores and blackheads and this didn't remove a single one! Mint julep mask does more for me that this. Using elmer's glue is the same as these pore strips.

Initially I hated this perfume because the smell was too spicy and mature. A year later I tried this on at sephora and I kinda started liking it again. The staying power is ok.
