I really wanted to try the BTS mascara because of the hype surrounding it. I had been using a cheaper, drugstore mascara called Diana of London before this.

To my utter shock, there was no difference between Bts and Diana of London Mascara!

Bts adds volume to your lashes but not much length. U have to apply at least 2 to 3 coats to see some volume. The more the coats, the more clumps u will see. Somehow I get a headache from using mascaras including BTS. The curl of my lashes doesn't hold for more than 2 hours so overall a disappointing experience. Would recommend buying Diana of London mascara : same results but less than half the price.

THIS CREASES!! A few hours into wearing it, it starts looking very obvious and unflattering. Don't known why people compare it to Tarte Shape Tape. It's nothing like that! It's a more moisturizing but a whole lot worse in every other way

I have been playing with this foundation for months in an attempt to get it to work with my skin. I know a lot of people who love this foundation and have oily skin just like me - holy grail in their eyes! However, this just doesn’t work for my skin. It isn’t the worst foundation I have ever applied and I keep using it (just to use it up). That is why this got an average rating from me. If it was THAT bad it would be tossed rather than used.

The reason I don’t like it is because it does oxidize on me, but I’ve been able to work with it so it wasn’t a complete deal breaker. I just have to be aware of bringing it all the way down my neck and chest depending on the neckline of my shirt.

It also looks pretty upon initial application, but within 2 hours it brings out the texture on my skin like crazy and can look cakey in certain spots. I’ve played around with different methods of application and realized that if I use more than a pump of product and use a brush it’ll cake on me. So I always have to use a damp sponge and take a small amount of product from my single pump to apply. Unfortunately, I still get cakey in areas as the day goes on. Depending on the lighting it isn’t too bad (outdoors awful; my office lighting it works). I’ve also played with and without powders with this foundation thinking that might be the culprit behind the heavy look. So on days I forego the powder I look super greasy by midday (like 3 blotting papers worth) and it still looks heavy. On days I use powder, I still look greasy by midday (like 2 blotting papers worth) and some cake up in areas.

Like I mentioned before, in office lighting I can make it work so I keep using it even though this is a very finicky, high-maintenance product for me. If I was always outside or couldn’t successfully touch this up at the office, this foundation would have probably gotten a 1 or 2 - but because I can work to make my skin look presentable and I’ve seen other foundations look much worse .... 3 it is.

Excuse me? This is a bad b*tch mascara!!! It's INSANE that this doesn't have better reviews! Listen, BTS is what you put on when you're about to go out and steal someone's man - it gives you the best thick, full, long, fluttery, 'take me now' lashes, PERIOD. And rest assured, our good waterproof sis does not flake, smudge or budge no matter what activities you may get up to. This is a HG mascara, no doubt about it.

I may have finally found my HG undereye concealer! This review is for the Born This Way "Radiant" Concealer, not the full coverage one. I use this for my under eyes. I don't have under eye wrinkles, but I am fair, and thus I have some discoloration. Thus, I like a good mid-body concealer that covers up discoloration, but isn't heavy enough to crease or feel like spackle. The packaging with the little wand is pretty much perfect! I have searched high and low for the perfect concealer, and I feel as if I finally found it! I've been using it since August, and I am just now getting low. Probably the best concealer I've tried in my 20+ years of wearing makeup!
