Urban Decay

Got this in their 2018 holiday bundle. I was really excited to see if the big brand name eyeliner would be able to hold up against my oily lids - but nope it smudged.

This isn't a concealer you'd want to use for the undereye area if you're really dry. It takes some work to smooth out ( ill use a BB and my fingers). Some days when my skin is dryer than usual, I can't make it work. The coverage is great, and the shade Light Warm matches me best though its a tad yellow. My skintone is around NC 20, and I use the shade 2.5 for the All Nighter foundation. I would repurchase if I ran out or lost it.

When I saw this at Sephora I knew I had to have it.

Unfortunately when I bought it and started using it I was very disappointed. The colors are very sheer and almost invisible. When I pay almost $50 for an eyeshadow, I would hope that it works. The blushes are very delicate and can break easily so you need to be careful. They are also quite pigmented so if you use too much you'll end up looking like a clown.

Not the best palette that UD has come out with.

This stuff is amazing. Never will I not have it in my collection. I don't use it every day, I break this bad boy out for extra long days or special occasions. It always comes through for me. It keeps my makeup in place longer, noticeably longer. Some setting spays leave me not sure if they actually extend my makeup, not this one. I can tell it works. It's pricey but it's worth it.

Pros:
Extends makeup wear
Helps keep everything in place even if sweating
Nice spray/mist
Large amount of product

Cons:
A little pricey
Scent isn't nice
High alcohol content

Overall, I adore this spray. I highly recommend it.

I am a makeup junkie and always itching to try new stuff, so I don't remember the time I've actually finished something. So when I say this is my go-to foundation, that means a lot (considering I've probably tried more than 100 different ones in my lifetime and currently have 7 opened ones on my dresser). Qualifier: I may not have liked this as much in my younger days, as the coverage is sheer and it's not matte. But for my nearing 50 skin that is getting drier and generally blemish free, this is a dream. It goes on very smoothly, never cakes up and gives me that natural glow like I'm bursting with health and didn't slap on a lot of makeup to cover up. People have constantly said how good my complexion looks when I'm wearing this (not how good my makeup looks). That's a huge difference. It plays well under sunscreen and wears well too, still looks great after 6 hours, considering how lightweight this is.

For all those complaining about the price, I hope you realise that this gives you 40ml instead of the usual 30ml of most foundations. I'm Mac NC25 and Light-Medium is perfect for me.
