Unlike the other reviewers I actually liked the cherry scent. These are super shiny and super pigmented if that's what you're aiming for. These colors looked way too artificial on me though so I returned it. It has a nice texture to it, not too sticky and has a curved wand making it easy to apply.

I couldnt find any matte lipstick available at any drugstore but when i heard about the reviews on this i had to try it out. The colors look really pretty in the packaging but as soon as you put it on i swear its not the same color. I wanted a nude pink color and bought this in Pale Pink. Little did i know it has a pastel lavender hint to it. It made me look completely washed out. Also the product did not glide on smoothly. I had to pull and tug on my lips just to get some color on. It settled into the ridges and cracks of my lips. I know people boast about their highly pigmented affordable makeup but this is just too pigmented for my taste. Even when i just dab it on its still too bright. I had no other choice but to return this.

I bought this after an article recommended this. The only good thing i found about this was that it leaves a matte finish unlike other bb creams i have used and the spf 35 in it. Other bb creams tends to leave a dewy look. This product gave me an orange complexion and the product goes on super thick that makes it hard to apply and blend well. I was left with blotchy skin and flaky skin. It did not hydrate at all!!! I still had to put lotion on top of it afterwards even though the description of this was to hydrate and prime. I will definitely return this and just go back to my Garnier bb cream. Such a disappointment especially since i paid $40 for this. I suggest you save your money and buy something less expensive.

I bought this in Nude Delight and unlike other nude colors that make me look like a zombie this does the opposite. Its the perfect nude color, provides plenty of moisture, and just the right amount of color. It also lasts a decent amount of time. They also have a good color selection.

I really like the packaging of this. Its so cute but the pump dispenses a lot so i only pump halfway and not all the way. I usually wear the light to medium color but this is a little darker. Its more suited for the summer when your skin is darker than the winter. I forgot to read the description and didnt know that there were light particles in it. I did not want any light particles since my skin is really oily and i wouldnt want it to seem like I was sparkling. I also dont like how the product is very thick that it makes it hard to spread and apply evenly. The only good thing is that it gives a light coverage but it doesnt absorb well. Im returning this first thing tomorrow.

Just bought this and I love how it creates waves unlike the smaller 3 barrel irons I have used before. Those ones creates more of a crimp than a wave. Something I didn't want and that's why I got this. The only things I don't like about this are that it's heavy and my arms get tired after waving 3 sections. Also the temperature is not hot enough to set my fine hair. I have to use a lot of hairspray to make it hold. But love love love how I can create waves now without using too much time with the straightener.

It was a pretty good primer. Made my skin feel so smooth and soft. The only bad thing is that the product is kind of runny. And the primer is not oil-free. At least that's what the sales rep told me since it's not listed on the packaging but despite that, it didn't make my oily skin look or feel oily.

It was supposed to give me a light coverage and it didn't do either. I can still see my large pores and imperfections after putting this on. This is not a BB cream despite the description. It's more of a translucent foundation. The product is super runny which makes it hard to apply. Gave my skin zero moisture. I still had to apply lotion after putting this on because of the flaky skin it created. The only good thing about this was that it absorbed really fast but that's about it.

I got this as a sample from Sephora. It really does make a difference for my eyeshadows. It makes them more vivid and streak-free. Doesn't smudge and goes on so smooth. My eyeshadow stays on all day and when it comes to removing it at the end of the day, I still have some leftover eyeshadow on my lid. That is how potent this primer is!!! I have Revlon Eye Brightener+Primer too and it doesn't seem to have as much staying power as this. This primer leaves a silky kind of greasy feeling on your lids to make sure your eyeshadows do really stay put. But it's not so greasy to the point where oily skin people can avoid.

I like how this mascara gives you the option of a straight brush or a curved brush. Because I find it easier to maneuver with a straight brush I bought the straight brush. It makes my lashes look super long. I was surprised especially since it's a drugstore brand and I think psychologically we all have it in our heads that super expensive brands might be better. I like how it doesn't clump after I applied 2 or 3 coats of it. It doesn't seem to hold my curl well and that's why I gave it 8 stars. Also it doesn't thicken the way I wanted it to. I wanted that va va oomph to my lashes. Instead I got natural looking lashes--which would be great if that's what you're aiming for but me personally, I prefer thick bold lashes that doesn't smudge, clump or flake. Sad to say I'm still on the hunt for that "perfect" mascara but overall this is by far the best drugstore mascara I've ever used!!!
