So like many, the idea of plush looking eyelashes was very tempting, so I decided to go out and purchase this mascara from my local drugstore. Unfortunately, I was not as amazed as this as I thought it would be. My lashes didn’t look lengthened or voluminousness. I have medium short lashes so I didn’t expect any magic to occur, I just thought maybe this would be good as their Flasies Mascara. The brush seems so fragile, I felt like if I was in hurry while putting the brush back into the tube, it would’ve snapped! One thing that was good about this mascara is that it doesn’t clump at all! My lashes were soft and not flakey at all. This just wasn’t the mascara for me, but I do feel like it would be nice for people who already have long lashes.

 I ordered this online as soon as I was it on the Forever21 website. I was really worried about it fading fast or smelling terrible. Turns out I had nothing to worry about. Its a blend of “red and pink currant, coconut water and other mesmerizing scents”, as listed on forever21.com. The red currant really stands out in the blend. For some reason, it reminds me of cupcakes. Its a really sweet and flirty scent and I would only suggest that it be worn in the day time. It makes me feel younger since it smells so sweet and innocent. Whats really surprising about this fragrance is how long it lasts! Most fragrances at this cost ($12.80) tend to fade almost immediately, but this lasts practically all day!

You have:

• A craving for a sweet innocent scent

You’ll get:

• A sweet sugar fruity scent

Pros:

• Smells sweet
• Long lasting
• Inexpensive

Cons:

• None

Worth Buying?: Yes

What good is your make up if your brush is dirty? Not good at all! I saw that e.l.f came out with a Daily Brush Cleaner which I was really excited about. Just spray your brush and gently wipe it onto a clean cloth and let it dry, sounds simple right? Well I put it to the test. I found it works with smaller brushes like eye shadow brushes, flat brushes etc. Even though it does work on larger brushes (like my favorite huge fluffy brush), you’re better off using a brush shampoo or even an antibacterial face wash! It took forever to clean my large brush and only a fraction of the time for the smaller ones. The one thing I liked about this product is that after the brush has dried, it feels so soft and clean, it even has a fresh clean scent to it! I could definitely tell that my brush was clean (when your brush looks streaky and clumpy, you really need to wash it! Get it back to its fluffy soft state). I feel that this would be convenient for someone always on the go, just be sure you have some clothes you’re willing to sacrifice! Don’t use your mom’s favorite towel, because you will ruin it. The make up goes all over the cloth and isn’t the easiest to remove. 


You have:
Make up brushes that need to be cleaned
You’ll get:

A visibly cleaner brush
Pros:
Effective
Leaves a clean scent and feeling
Great for on the go
Cons:
Ruing towels/cloths
Must spritz over and over to get a good amount of the product
Not so effective when it comes to larger brushes

Worth Buying?: No.

   So basically, this is hairspray for your face. Think of it as an outer primer! I really love this mist. It keeps my make up in place, prevents it from smudging, and it prevents my skin from looking oily so quickly. This is great if you’re going to be wearing make up for a long time and know you wont have any opportunities to touch up. It has aloe, green tea, cucumber vitamins A,C,and E. Best part is, it doesn’t make me break out! After applying your make up, just spritz this on and you’re ready to go in a couple of minutes (to let it dry of course)! Again, for those of you that have oily skin and are tired of touching up and constantly blotting, this is for you!! Good job e.l.f!

You have:

• Make up that fades easily
• Make up that smudges easily
• Skin that gets oily quickly

You’ll get:

• Make up that doesn’t look worn out or messy
• A less shiny face throughout the day

Pros:

• Effective
• Controls oil!
• One or two spritz, and you’re done
• Affordable, only $3!

Cons:

• Has a slight smell when its wet but nothing disturbing. The smell fades immediately as its drying

Worth Buying?: Yes

This is me wearing my EOS Max Pure Brown Circle Lens. I’m wearing them right now as well! I love them and they give off natural looking enlargement. I definitely recommend this to anyone who is interested in wearing circle lens but aren’t sure which pair should be their first. I’ll do a full review on this in a bit!(:

  At first, I was a little on the fence about this product. I didn’t see or feel a difference after the first use so I became skeptical. This is supposed to be a thermal protective treatment, moisturizer, and hair strengthener. Its a little chunky, so you really need to squeeze the bottle. I started to use this again and now I am convinced that I love it. Usually after I wash my hair and let it air dry, my natural curls frizz out and they start to not look like curls anymore. After using this for a while on a regular basis, I noticed that the curls in my hair looked a little more sleeker while they were drying. After my hair was completely dry, my hair didn’t poof up! I really love this now! I definitely recommend this if you have weak hair, and especially if you have curly hair and you use heat on it. You may not see results immediately, but you will see a different cover time! Just use this after shampooing your hair, rinse, apply the Chi Infra Treatment to your hair (for about 2-5 min, I prefer 5) and rinse it out.

You have:

• Frizzy hair
• Hair that breaks off easily

You’ll get:

• Stronger hair
• Sleeker hair

Pros:

• Noticeable results, overtime
• A little goes a long way

Cons:

• No immediate results

Worth Buying?: Yes

  This was my go to blush for a while! There are two duos you can select. This one is for medium to dark skin tones, and the Sunset Dance/Dance in the lights is for light to medium skin tones. On the left is the blush and on the right is the bronzer. I always got compliments when I wore this blush, even one of my teachers said she loved it and she wanted to know what blush I was wearing! The Argentinean Duo is a nice coral pink color. Usually when I try blushes that are coral/coral pink, they end up looking way too orange, too much coral! But this blush is the perfect mix of coral and pink. It even has a nice subtle shimmer to it, but its not overpowering. When you dust it on, its not heavily pigmented so the chances of looking like a clown is very low. I loved this blush but the only downside to it for me was that I noticed that after I started using this blush, I would break out a little on my cheeks. Don’t think that this result is typical, it could just be me, or maybe my brush wasn’t clean enough, who knows! 

You have:

• Cheeks that need a splash of color

You’ll get:

• A natural “just pinched” pink on your cheeks

Pros:

• Subtle shimmer, sheen
• Natural looking color
• Options for skin tones
• Comes with bronzer

Cons:

• Costs $22

Worth Buying?: Yes

  I am a huge fan of coconuts, and I love keeping my skin hydrated. This was one of the many double body mists I’ve purchased from Victoria’s Secret. Of course I love all of them, but I get a lot of compliments from my coconut loving friends. When I spray this on, I feel like I live next to the beach. This is such a summer loving scent and it is a must have for my coconut lovers out there! Out of all of the coconut scents out there, this is the most raw. Others smell like they may be mixed with something else like flowers, but this smells like coconut and ONLY coconut. I adore it! Whats better than smelling like your favorite scent? Softening up your skin while you’re at it! This has 2 layers of skin conditioners in each bottle, so just shake it up, spritz, and be on you way.

You have:

• A craving for coconut!

You’ll get:

• Soft sweet smelling skin

Pros:

• Smells great
• Hydrates skin

Cons:

• None

Worth Buying?: Yes

    This is my first foundation brush that isn’t fluffy. I decided to give it a shot since I usually apply my liquid foundation with my fingers, but I hear that some people get better coverage with a brush. I was doubtful at first, but now I love it! I love e.l.f brushes. I can’t picture myself NOT using this brush in the future. The handle is very sturdy (other brushes I’ve owned have fallen apart) and the perfect length. The bristles are soft but firm. When putting on your liquid foundation with this brush, you’ll feel like you’re literally painting your face. Its not streaky at all because of how soft the bristles are (if your make up looks streaky, clean your brush!) and lets you give yourself even coverage all around.Your make up will go on smooth without any mess on your finger tips. Whats even better about this brush is that it only costs $5!

You have:

• Poor quality brushes
• Brushes that leave your face looking streaky.

You’ll get:

• Even coverage all around, mess free!

Pros:

• Great quality bristles
• Sturdy handle
• Affordable

Cons:

• None

Worth Buying?: Yes

Here are some photos I took of e.l.f. Essential Cover Everything Concealer in Medium. 

See how creamy it is? You can see my fingerprint!

  I was on the e.l.f website and noticed that they came out with a new concealer! I was so exited and I new I had to get it. This concealer is a steal for $2! It’s super creamy and easy to blend with your fingers. It comes a good sized circle compact and it will definitely last a while. It’s perfect for covering up small imperfections such as discoloration in the skin. It also works well for under eye dark circle, however it does set into wrinkles a little bit. I was a little disappointed that e.l.f only provides 4 shades for this product. This product did not cause me to break out, nor did it dry my skin up! It goes on smooth and stays smooth. Its a bit on the shiny side but that problem can be easily fixed by setting it with powder. This shade was a little too light for me, but once set with powder, it blended in right away. I would recommend to put this on flat spots such as post acne marks rather than a warm raised pink pimple.

You have:

• Blemishes that you want to hide.

You’ll get:

• Natural looking coverage

Pros:

• Easy to use
• Creamy
• Affordable

Cons:

• Only has 4 shades

Worth Buying?: Yes
