bareMinerals All-Over Face Color

Love the Glee for everything

I got this in the starters kit and this is the one product I did like from them and still do. It's a real pretty natural looking eyeshadow and makes a nice blush. I'm not a fan for an all over color, but I love it for the first 2. I have pinkish undertones so all I need to use is very little. It lasts for a long time and that was just the small container. This is a hard color found in stock so I use the second best True, but it doesn't come close to the nice natural look that Glee gives me. It's worth the price and works with almost any eyeshadow brush even cheap ones. It's really a good buy and hey it's supposedly all natural and good for your skin right.

bareMinerals Baby Buki Brush

Not worth it and rough on skin

I've had about 5 of these because when it first came out it was all the craze and I got them as gifts and tried to like it really. THis brush is rough on my sensitive skin and even when I use the brush cleaner from the company it doesn't clean good enough and feel really harsh. I prefer make up forever or eco from target. Those brushes are much softer and don't feel like they're scratching my skin, not to mention Eco at target is Way cheaper.

MAC Pro Longwear LipColour

The Best Lipstain w/out drying out

I loved mac since I was 14yrs old and when this product came out I had to try it. I have all the neutral, seasonal and reddish colors in these and absolutely Love them. It doesn't dry out your lips like covergirl, myabelline and revlons. This las all day and you just need one coat or it can get cakey. I mix my nude w/dark red for a a more pinkish look and it is great with any other lipgloss over it if you don't like the mac clear. I like to put a sheer glitter color to tone down the color. It last's a very long time and perfect for gym, hiking or a casual day because it stays on ALL day. It's worth the price and is the best lipstain out there. Careful though because there colors come and go and so when I find one I like, I buy 2-3 of them. It literally makes my lips look like either I had a pinkish tint tattooed on or naturally rosy pretty lips.

Josie Maran 100% Pure Argan Oil

Pretty good, but expensive

I bought this because I've been seeing it on tv a lot and reading about it in New Beauty and all over. I was hesitant because it was just another fad coming into the scene. It does work and blends into your skin pretty good, but it's not enough for me when my skin becomes drier in the winter. Honestly My 100% coconut oil works a tad bit better for my skin, but is much cheaper than this. I ran through this bottle in no time and I bought a huge coconut oil that's organic for less than this. If you want to spend the money, more power to you, but you won't get any Miraculous treatment from this.

GloMinerals gloSheer Tint Base

Great for a sheer light look & Teenagers

This won't give you coverage, but a very nice sheer glow to your face. It's great if you skin tone is already even and smooth, so it's perfect for girls who are just starting out and want to wear makeup. It's light and nice and if you want more coverage, use it with the finishing powder or you alone for a natural day look. It's a great price and last me for awhile before I had to buy another one and I use to use it everyday. I also like the fact that it has spf and it says it has antioxidants in it. Once you know the colors you need I would say purchase this on ebay because it's much cheaper. I been buying this online since 2008 once I got my colors down. During my dry skin season I skip the powder and mix this with the glo foundation for more coverage and it keeps my skin moist using 1/2 & 1/2.

GloMinerals glo Finishing Powder (Perfecting)

Great coverage and goes a long way

I have dry skin so I try to limit my use on this. It works great over the Glo tinted moisturizer I use and helps smooth and even out my tint. It has great coverage, but if can look caked or dry if you over use it. I would recommend using this with a kabuki to lightly sweep over your face or if you put too much bronzer on and need to smooth it out more. It's a great price and last a really long time. I like using it at night when I go out to the lounges or clubs, but I would say during the day, it's easy to look like you've put too much makeup on, even if you didn't.

GloMinerals gloCamouflage oil-free

Made for Oily skin

So my old spa in Las Vegas turned me onto Glo minerals and I loved most of their stuff, but NOT this. I was looking for an under eye concealer that didn't dry my skin out and basically she was just trying to get a sell from me, which I felt betrayed after I figured it out. She didn't need to do this, but she straight out lied to me. I asked her about concealers and she said glo has a perfect one for me to keep my eye moist. So we were looking for the actual dual under eye concealer and they didn't have any in stock. She then said we have another one with a single color that is perfect for under eye's. I new her for awhile and she never did me wrong. I double checked with her and she said yes it's perfect for under eye, even though she new my skin was dry in the winter. When I tried using this, it was dry and made my under eye cake like! So I did my research in more depth and found this is for the eye lid area, mainly it's a primer, I mean who has anything wrong or need to cover about your eyes? My regular and cheaper primers are much better. Well needless to say I didn't want to waste this, but it's more drying on me than anything. It's great if you have oily skin or in the summer time, but as for an actual concealer? NOPE, not for dry skin and it should be called an eye primer Not concealer! Not worth the $24 I paid for it back then.

OPI Nail Lacquer

Revlon & Sally H. is better

I have several of Opi's colors, but I don't understand what the hype is all about. When I get pedicures I must say it last for some time, but when I color my own nails and do all the steps needed to make it last, it comes off easily and chips off. I love the variety of colors they have and it' really pretty, but unless the spa does my nails, I can Never seem to get the so called quality and rave on how great and long lasting this brand is. I've had better results with Revlon and Great lasting color with Sally H and I don't have to do all the steps such as file, sand, buff and etc.... For the price I rather just pay extra to pamper myself at the spa since it seems when they use it, it lasts like salon quality.

Remington T Studio -Heated Clip Hair Setter

Great Curls

I bought these on vacation back in Hawaii this summer. My hair was long, thick and down to my tailbone. My curls came out beautiful with A Lot of body and lasted Great. It heats up pretty fast, but my problem was the clips to hold in place had melted on some of them, so I couldn't use those curlers. I paid $49.99 in Hawaii for them and they take up room, so not good for traveling. I decided to return them because 6 curlers were useless, I found them cheaper on the internet and I didn't have room to bring them back to the states with me. I am planning on buying these again because they are Much cheaper now, however for the long lasting curls it gave me, it was worth the price I had paid.

Remington Style Ceramic Compact Hair Setter

Traveling, but not the best

I got this a while ago because I have a thing with liking to try different curlers out. This is very convenient for traveling, but I have to use a lot of hairspray, even though my hair is easy to curl. I use my clips from my other curlers to keep them in place. I prefer my curls to have more of a bigger body wave, so these are my least favorites out of almost a dozen or more curling tools I have. They are cheap and if your hair is thin then this would be great for you.
