Revlon Creme Shadows (Not Just Nudes)

As you can see from the picture, I love this palette! I've already hit pan. I use this pretty much everyday. It's perfect for just a nice, everyday neutral look. Colors are very rich and long lasting. You can build up the color or apply a sheer wash over the lids. The colors are very versatile and you can play with the four different shades for a natural or dramatic look. Definitely would recommend this and definitely would repurchase.

Revlon Colorburst lipstick (Rosy Nude)

This is my alltime favorite lipstick! The formula is very nice, creamy and moisturizing. It looks really nice on the lips and doesn't feel dry or thick. I love that I can apply a real light coat for a natural everyday look but I can also darken it up for a night look. The swatch looks rather dark but if you apply lightly, it can look softer. Very useful for a day to night look. Definitely recommend this and would definitely repurchase!

The Body Shop Skin Primer (Moisturise It)

I have been using this primer from The Body Shop for a while now and I've got to say, it's just so-so. This is the hydrating primer for dry skin. They also have a mattifying primer for oily skin called Matte It. This is very easy to apply and does feel hydrating on the skin, but it does little to make my makeup last longer. It also doesn't help my makeup apply any better/smoother. To me, it's just an average primer that doesn't give me any miraculous results. I wouldn't repurchase because there are better primers out there!

Lancome Tropiques Minerale Bronzer (Natural Sunbath)

This is officially my new favorite bronzer! It's a gorgeous matte bronzer that's perfect for contouring and all over face color. What I love about this is that it looks SO natural on the skin. It looks like I just had a tan. It has SPF 15 and is quite long lasting. PROS: - Very natural looking - Long lasting - Makes skin silky smooth - Great for contouring and for all over the face CONS: - Bulky packaging - Pan popped out a few weeks after I got it. But the glue was still sticky so I pressed it back in and it seems fine now. The best part is, I got this for just $15! It was on sale at a makeup outlet and I thought it was a great deal. Definitely recommend this and would definitely repurchase!

Loreal Studio Secrets Magic Perfecting Base

At first, I wasn't really a fan of this product but I've learned to love it! It makes my skin feel so incredibly smooth and makes the application of my foundation/concealer/etc. so nice! It looks like I have flawless skin because it smooths out the surface of my skin. Works great under foundation, concealer or cream blush. Basically just any liquid or cream product. Definitely recommend this and would definitely repurchase.

Covergirl Aqua Smoothers Tinted Moisture

This tinted moisturizer works GREAT for dry skin. It's very hydrating and looks very natural. The only problem I have with it is that it is SO SHEER. It gives almost no coverage. I would say this would work if you had very clear skin and just wanted a teeny bit of coverage to smooth out the surface of your skin. For me, I just use this with some concealer and foundation powder for a nice everyday coverage. I like this but I wouldn't say I love it. I wouldn't repurchase though. I know there are better tinted moisturizers out there.

Blushes!

Say Hello to my blush collection! First pic (from top to bottom, left to right): 1. Maybelline Dream Smooth Blush (Peach Satin) Too much shimmer for my taste. 2. Milani Baked Blush (Luminoso) Gorgeous peachy coral color, natural shimmers that highlight cheekbones. 3. Physicians Formula Mineral Wear blush (Pink Glow) Very natural, matte pink blush. 4. Neutrogena Healthy Skin Custom Glow Blush and Bronzer Nice, standard pink blush. Nothing special though. 5. Maybelline Fit me Blush (Light mauve) Very very sheer with too much shimmers. 6. Rimmel London Lasting Finish blush (Spring Flower) Mauve-y color that can get a little murky from mixing the colors together. Swatches (Left to right) 1. Maybelline Dream Mouse Blush 2. Milani Baked Blush 3. Rimmel London Lasting Finish Blush 4. Neutrogena Healthy Skin Custom Glow Blush 5. Maybelline Fit Me Blush 6. Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Blush My favorites would be the Milani Baked Blush and Physicians Formula Mineral Wear!

Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush: Peach Satin

There was a huge rave about these blushes a while ago so I finally picked it up! My first impression was that I was VERY disappointed. There is way too much shimmer in this blush. It's a very artificial, unattractive shimmer that gives off a sort of metallic finish on the skin. This blush is also not suited for dry skin. It enhances dry patches. Although the color is peach satin, it is a very bright-ish pink color. I definitely would not repurchase and I feel this blush was very disappointing.
