Maybelline New York Shine Free Oil Control Loose Powder

doesn't do what it's made to do

Does give a matte finish in some areas, but other areas like my nose and forehead still have noticeable shine. My skin isn't even oily just shiny. The areas that the powder does matte don't stay matte very long. And, of course, it being a loose powder means alot of the powder will end up on your hand or your floor. I recommend the Maybelline Dream Matte Powder instead, it's much better :)

Maybelline New York Eye Studio Master Precise Ink Pen Eyeliner

amazing product

easy to use, doesn't smudge. you could rub your eyes all day and this stuff wouldn't come off! colors are true, black isn't greyish like some other eyeliners, it's a nice bold black. and the pen tip is so fine you could autograph a grain of rice if you really wanted to!

Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush Body Double Mist

so many wonderful scents!

I bought the Body Double Mist in "Juiced Berry" after my sister gave me a test of it. I really love the fragrance! After you mist it on your skin it feels so soft and touchable. I'm not an avid perfume-wearer, but this is perfect for special occasions or just everyday wear. That is, if you don't mind having to shake the bottle before everytime you spray, or the fact that the angles in which you can spray at are limited. I'd definitely purchase this again because I'm too in love with the aroma.

John Frieda Frizz-Ease 100% Shine Glossing Mist

you don't have to spend $12 on a tiny, high-end bottle!

this inexpensive product makes your hair so shiny and soft with just a little spray. It didn't do a whole lot for my frizz, I noticed, but I only really bought it for the promised shine effect. The shine it brings is the typical "bottled-shine" not the natural, warm "lit-from-within" that some may like better, but if your hair doesn't have shine to begin with then this product will change that. If you do have shine, then this product will amplify it. Win, win, right? I would advise against putting too much of this in your hair as it may get greasy. I would buy this product again because the shine lasts thoughtout the day!

CoverGirl CG Smoothers Concealer

goes on smoothly but...

coverage may be on the light side if you have dark circles like me. Nothing a little layering can't solve though. I bought the Neutralizer because I was afraid the Light might be too pink for my face, which might explain the cover issue. This product lightens up my eyes and doesn't seem to get caught in any lines. It does seem to fade, though. Even quicker if you touch your face alot. It's a pretty good product for it's price, though, which isn't expensive at all.

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Blends Translucent Oil-Control Powder

may need to layer if you have oily skin

great for a nice glow. I love the fact that it's not just one tone so it looks very natural on your skin. The powder doesn't spill everywhere which is always nice. However, if you don't want your skin to be shiny you may need to add a few layers. Very light coverage, indeed. The brush that comes with it sometimes will shed so I need to remember to brush off any bristles that might've fallen onto my face. I would buy this again, along with my own powder brush. Hope this helps!
