spaldero says "Not the greatest mascara..." about CoverGirl Volume Exact Mascara

spaldero — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 22:23:40 GMT

Despite what the models on the commercials say, this Covergirl mascara is not even close to a favorite of mine. No matter how many celebrities show off their perfect eyelashes, they are obviously not wearing this mascara! I'd like to know what they are actually wearing on the commercials! I guess it sticks to the name "Volume Exact" as it does give great volume, but thats after you have to pick through the clumps in your eyelashes. Covergirl claims on the packaging that it will not clump, but thats the only thing I noticed when I used it. My biggest pet peeve is clumps!! I do like the Covergirl brand, and I will continue to use it, but I won't be buying this mascara. Another thing I noticed too is the "very black" colour that I normally buy actually looks more brown. That isn't that big of a deal, but why advertise "very black" if its brown? I wouldn't recommend this mascara to anyone unless they like "spiderey" lashes!

nmezadiaz says "MAC Eyeshadows are the Bomb!!!!" about MAC Eye Shadow

nmezadiaz — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 17:36:17 GMT

MAC Eyeshadows are the Bomb! Great colors, great texture! Unfortunately I am allergic to some colors but that is in general. However the colors that I can use are great! They have a variety of colors and tones which makes it awesome to match with clothes! The variety of colors and textures also make it great to combine with a variety of colors. I would recommend that everyone try it. Although it is a a bit more pricer than most eyeshadows it is VERY much worth the extra money money pay. It is well worth it! Once you try it you'll NEVER go back to anything else!

cje123 says "Taste and smell almost as good as the real thing!" about e.l.f. Candy Shop Lip Tints

cje123 — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 19:02:52 GMT

Usually I get my flavored chap sticks and lip balms from companies such as smackers and such, they taste and smell great, however they always dry out my lips, which isn't supposed to be the point of the product. The Candy Shop Lip Tints from e.l.f. have all of those same benefits, and don't dry out my lips! I love them, I have almost every flavor, but i especially recommend cherry bomb. The top of the tin slides of and on so I never loose it and can keep my lip balm with me always :) Definitely one of my favorite items from e.l.f.

Jessicaam2006 says "Not worth all the hype" about Maybelline Great Lash Mascara Soft Black .43 oz.

Jessicaam2006 — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 18:21:29 GMT

The Great lash mascara by maybeline is not worth all the hype its always featured in magazines and on tv where the celebrity makeup artists claim its the only one that they will use on the celebrity clientele. I purchased it and tried wearing it and was greatly dissapointed with the results. It is very liquid and is hard to use. Once its on it takes too long to dry and caused all my eyelashes to stick together in large clumps. I was not at all satisfied by what I experienced and would never buy this again. It is cheaper then most mascara I will give them that but there is obviously a good reason for the lower price. Next time Im going to just pay a little more to get a quality product that can deliver the full long lashes that I am looking for. I guess you cant always follow the advice of all those celebrity makeup artists and so called professionals because the Great Lash mascara is not worth the small amount it costs.

amy4friend says "Not as good as it is made to sound" about Maybelline Great Lash Mascara Soft Black .43 oz.

amy4friend — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 17:58:07 GMT

Maybelline has been a brand I look upto for a lot of things. Certainly not this and sometimes I wonder yes I can spend some more money for a little more quality.

Its clampy, the colour yes its dark but it smudges and well its not waterproof. Its good for kids but not for people who are mascara lovers. I have used all brands of mascaras and this one is definitely in the bottom list.

A mascara should be smooth on your lashes and look natural while giving you that nice look. This one does not do that its thick and not my kind. Good for the people who like it. I just want to express what I truly feel.

cje123 says "SO easy to use, it takes me no more than 5 minutes to work!" about e.l.f. Sugar Kiss Curly Eyelash Tool

cje123 — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 16:03:26 GMT

Initially I never used eye lash curlers because I have pretty long lashes to start with, but this one from e.l.f. was a $1, so much less expensive than any others, so I bought it and now use it every day! It works amazingly. The pink handles are so cute and have a good grip on them making them easy to use and get a good hold on. The curl that these make happens after one try, and it looks amazing, i love it! There are for sure worth buying and giving a try whether you think you need them or not!

cje123 says "Nothing fake looking about these lashes, LOVE them!!" about e.l.f. Sugar Kiss False Eyelashes

cje123 — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 15:47:46 GMT

The drama false eyelashes from the Sugar Kiss line, are pretty much the same as the ones from the studio line and regular e.l.f. line products. I love them all anyway, they are easy to apply, and they look very real, and the best part is they are definitely a bargain! However, I wish the glue could maybe be a little better, but it still works fine. The bling lashes from this line are awesome! I love them, they look sick on. I tried them on thinking they would look ridiculous, but they look amazing, it just adds a little something to your eye.

created2sing says "L'Oreal mineral makeup is perfect for your skin!" about L'Oreal Bare Nataurel Mineral Makeup

created2sing — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 21:01:16 GMT

L'Oreal mineral makeup is the newest and greatest makeup product out there today. There is no way I am going to revert back to liquid foundation and concealer (which helped increase my acne). I love all of the different shades of foundation that are available. There is an easy application process by using the tub of foundation and the perfect brush which comes in the bottle. No more spending money on separate brushes (or worrying about washing them or throwing them away). You get a new brush with each new purchase of makeup and it is the perfect brush specifically intended to use with that product!

My daily makeup routine consists of using L'Oreal Mineral foundation, the mineral concealer, the mineral bronzer/blush, and to finish the look I use the mineral power to blend everything in. The newest product that I have yet to try is their mineral eyeshadow and eye liner! I am so excited that I can't wait to go buy all the new colors!

cje123 says "GORGEOUS lashes for $3! and they really work!" about e.l.f. Studio Hollywood Eyelashes Kit

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 19:18:07 GMT

These lashes look amazing on! I had never used fake lashes before I used e.l.f.'s so I don't have anything to compare to, but everyone has said they look real, and i have no problems with putting them on, plus everything you need comes all together in one set! The applicator and other pieces to the set are very professional, and keep safety in mind. I have no problems with the glue, and I would definitely recommend the set to anyone. Its a bargain and I don't know anyone who is unhappy with their purchase :)

cje123 says "Tames those messy eye brows with no problem" about e.l.f. Studio Eyebrow Treat and Tame

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 19:00:20 GMT

I don't always have time to go and get my eye brows, in fact I have very little time for this, however, e.l.f.'s eyebrow treat and tame product has done a really good job of keeping my eyebrows in good shape until I can really got fix them. The tame mascara on one side really defines my brows and helps me style them correctly to be a good shape! They look fuller, and very natural! The treat gel, on the other side has definitely come to help me with my problem of over plucking from those days in middle school! This product is a MUST HAVE! I love it, and the light shade is perfect for me!

cje123 says "Say goodbye to under eye bags!" about e.l.f. Studio Under Eye Concealer & Highlighter

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 18:50:13 GMT

I don't sleep very much, which I can live with fine however i usually tend to have dark circles or bags under my eyes which I feel looks a lot like left over make up from the night before which is a little grose. I have had really good result with other e.l.f. products so I was not at all surprised when i tried this and LOVED it. Its SO easy! Use the concealer side to disguise under eye bags, and then the highlight side to give your eyes an instant brightening boost! Just that simple. You won't be sorry for trying it, and it comes in three different shades which are easy to pick from.

cje123 says "Perfect Idea to combine both in one set" about e.l.f. Studio Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 18:39:56 GMT

This dynamic duo set was a great idea, and are of very good quality. The blush has a good amount of shimmer in it, and the color looks great on (as long as it is used sparingly and properly), it gives me that really nice rosie cheeks look that is so in style right now. Then if I don't want to wear blush, the bronzer is also in the set, which looks great on to I have to say. It gives of a healthy glow, as long as its used appropriately, as to much of any bronzer, even top of the line can look fake and dirty. Wearing both at the same time is not something I do, but I'm sure that works to as long as you know how to apply it so one compliments the other. Definitely buy this product while its still in stores! and even if its not your thing, its $3, yes 3! its worth a try.

cje123 says "Makes my skin look incredible!" about e.l.f. Studio Translucent Matifying Powder

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 18:29:23 GMT

I tried this powder and it truly is translucent! I am so impressed with e.l.f.'s studio line, their products are amazing and are such good quality! This translucent powder takes away shine and absorbs oil without being too drying which is a huge positive for me. The new packaging is amazing, it looks so professional that it rivals the expensive brands. It has a sleek style and a nice large mirror for just $3. My skin now looks great, and this product is so easy to just take out anywhere and everywhere when I need it. Your missing out without this product!

cje123 says "Fantastic Product! Does exactly what you want!" about e.l.f. Studio Lip Liner and Blending Brush

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 17:06:10 GMT

This is the best lip liner i have ever tried! Since I first tried this lip liner i use it everyday! When I line my lips they look natural and the product gave me fuller and more delicious looking lips. Its great because if I want I can apply a lipgloss or lipstick along with it or even just wear the liner. The colors are very natural looking and match my lips perfectly! I just don't like that it runs out pretty fast so buy like 3!! The brush is also really handy too when applying lip gloss or lipstick and blending it all in together. Also no sharpener is needed!

cje123 says "Amazing Idea!" about e.l.f. Studio Eyeliner and Shadow Stick

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 16:41:27 GMT

Ok, one side is eye liner, and the other side is a built in eyeshadow stick, what a cool idea is that!?!? This product is just like the stilla eyeliner and eyeshadow stick, except its way less than half the price, and i think it might be even better! I used to have the stilla one, but i prefer the colors a lot more from the e.l.f. studio line, and its $3!!! how can you not buy that!!! The eye liner is gel so it glides on easily and with no fuss, its perfect for all kinds of styles, day wear, smoky eye, even the 60's heavy make up look. It gives great definition and is long lasting. The eyeshadow on the other side of the stick gives a soft highlighting color that compliments any eye color. Choose from a variety of colors and take my advice this item is HOT!

cje123 says "I give it 5 Stars!" about e.l.f. Studio Eye Primer & Liner Sealer

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 16:13:33 GMT

I am in LOVE with the studio line from e.l.f. All the products look and are such great quality, and for such affordable prices! I could go on a whole shopping spree and buy a lot of their stuff and not feel guilty. I love the primer part of this product! I got this last week, and i've used it every day, and have not experienced yet any creasing or complications. The liner has helped with smudging and such. Now my eye makeup is fully covered from and problems and is longer lasting. If this is not for you, still check out some of the other products from the studio line, e.l.f. has done a great job with this new line! I'm really excited to see what comes out next :)

cje123 says "I use it all the time" about e.l.f. Studio Lip Primer & Plumper

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 16:00:51 GMT

The color of this thing really lasts! and I love the small of the lip Plumper, it smells like sweet cinnamon, and it even tastes good. The primer creates a base for lip color for no budge, and it works really well, and feels quite smooth going on. The plumper then enhances your lips with with a subtle plumping tingle, which really makes my small lips look larger and a but fuller, If only they could look more like Angelina Jolie's though! I usually don't wear lipstick, I prefer to wear glosses more, but this I definitely do put on every morning on my way to school. It also comes in two great colors, clear and natural. BUY THIS PRODUCT, YOU WONT REGRET!

cje123 says "Best Concealer I OWN!" about e.l.f. Studio Concealer Pencil & Brush

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 15:47:07 GMT

This studio e.l.f. product is great! It is by far the best concealer I have! It comes in three different shades, fair, light, and medium. I got the shade Light. The texture is very creamy, and it covers blemishes very well, and is easy to use. The blending brush on the opposite side makes this concealer even more amazing. It is the perfect size and thickness for blending but not taking away the actual concealer from my skin. The sharpener built into the cap is also really handy, and not something on a lot of other companies products. I give this product 5 stars! and recommend everyone to buy it. Its well worth your money, and the best part is, its only $3!!!! GREAT quality for a GREAT price.

cje123 says "LOVE IT" about e.l.f. Studio Eyebrow Lifter and Filler

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 15:35:12 GMT

The lifter pencil definitely works and does help to define the arches of the brow line! The filler is a little shockingly heavy when you first use it, so be prepared for that and use it sparingly. I find it's easier to use once the point's worn down a little, and now it looks amazing! This product from e.l.f.'s new studio line is not only easy to put on, but its even easier to take off, a little bit of eye make-up remover and no problem. I recommended this to all my friends and now they all love it, so definitely give it a try. Its also long lasting, when I come home after a long night, its still on! Best of all, like the other e.l.f. products its CHEAP!! and still is great quality.

cje123 says "Does just the trick!" about e.l.f. Studio Lip Definer and Shaper

cje123 — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 15:15:50 GMT

This two sided, Lip definer, and lip shaper does exactly what its supposed to! It enhances my lips by creating a fuller more defined lip easily. One side highlights lips to create a great glow, and the other side defines lips for a perfect look your might be going for. I purchased a similar product from a high end brand sold at Saks, and I was pleasantly surprised that the performance of this item was as good as the high end one. This product was non-drying and very comfortable to wear and use. The colors are all very wearable and come in a great variety. The cap even comes with a sharpener! and for this amazing value how could you say no ?!?!
