Maybelline New York Define-A-Brow Eyebrow Pencil

I like it

I actually like this eyebrow pencil; I used medium brown on my blondish brows to make them stand out more, and I only need to use a little to get a nice effect. It lasts me for a couple of months, at least.

NP Set Lipstick

Incredible quality

I am loving this line at Target! The quality is really amazing and I think it's better than most expensive department store brands. I got the lipstick in Peking, which is a slightly matte brownish pink, and it's beautiful and lasts for hours. So far I've only purchased the concealer pen (which I HIGHLY recommend) and the lipstick, but I plan on replacing many of my makeup products with this line as they run out. NP Set is more expensive than most drugstore brands (most products are $15) but the quality makes it more than worth it.

NP Set Concealer Pen

LOVE this line!

I just tried some of the NP Set products at Target, and I am LOVING this line! This concealer is amazing; it works better than most department store and other expensive brands. It lasts all day and does not get dry at all around the eyes. Yes, the line is a bit more expensive than other drugstore brands (everything seems to be about $15.00), but the quality of the products makes it more than worth it.

Smashbox Camera Ready Full Coverage Concealer

Wish it had more coverage

The consistency is a little thin for a concealer; I like a concealer that offers good coverage and whenever I use this one I always end up putting another, different concealer on top for additional coverage. For people who don't have a lot of skin flaws or like ligher coverage, it would be great.

Proactiv Repairing Treatment

My one skincare mainstay

This lotion worked so well for me -- as an adult, I was always having problems with breakouts due to stress, PMS, lack of sleep, etc. This is the only acne product that made a difference for me, and it wasn't too drying (although, using it with the cleanser and toner did overdry my skin, so I just used the lotion). Anyone having problems with breakouts should give this a try.

Exuviance Ultra-Rich Restorative Creme Intense Moisturization

Great for dry skin

I use this when my skin is feeling dry -- it moisturizes so well and my skin stays hydrated all day. It does have an unusual texture but for people who need extra moisture this really works.
