There's a reason this mascara has been around sine 1971!
It may not be the mascara that provides the most length or volume but if you're somebody who just wants a little oomph to their lashes without wanting to look like Kim K. This is a great product for you.
This mascara isn't clumpy, it doesn't dry out easily and it is easy to apply. It provides a subtle, natural looking lash enhancement, with multiple brush options depending on preference. It also comes in waterproof, and non waterproof and both are equally effective
Great option for everyday mascara!
I would recommend this product to anybody who likes wearing mascara but doesn't want to look over the top.

L'Oreal Paris Pure-Clay Energizing and Brightening Mask

Let me just start by saying that this mask has almost the exact same ingredient line-up as the new Vichy Clay Mask but for a third of the price !! (they are owned by the same company)
That being said, let me get to the mask.
I have oily, acne-prone skin so I tend to lean towards clay masks. Usually I would avoid drugstore masks, especially those for oily skin because they tend to contain Alcohol Denat (which is essentially rubbing alcohol) and can be extremely harmful to the skin.
This product contains no blatantly harmful ingredients so I figured I would give it a shot.
Great product, leaves my skin feeling clean without being too overly drying. The following morning after using the mask I usually find that there are one or two pimples that have comes to head which is a great thing ! Means that the mask is truly drawing out impurities.
i would recommend this product to anybody unless you have sensitive skin!
If you have oily skin: Apply mask, leave it on until it dries and then rinse it off
If you have dry-combination skin: Apply mask, leave for five minutes, and rinse.
note** please be sure to avoid the eye area!

CND VINYLUX Weekly Polish

In Esthetics school we used nothing but Vinylux for our clients.
The Vinylux claim to fame is that it's a week-long wear polish that won't chip. I simply don't find that to be true.
Yes the product lasts a little bit longer than regular polishes and i'm sure that for some, it can last up to a week. However in my experience, the majority of people don't get the promised results.
The formula itself thickens a lot sooner than regular polish does because of the different composition. If you find this happens, put a few drops of nail polish remover into the bottle and shake it up, this should loosen the product and make it easier to apply :)
I would not recommend this product. I think you'd be better of saving your money and sticking to regular polish or splurging and getting gel polish instead.

The CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser is my go-to cleanser!
I am an Esthetician by trade and I don't believe in indulging in luxury cleansers because they don't stay on your skin long enough to make a difference.
I had used Cetaphil cleansers for years until I tried this product at a friends house. This cleanser is extremely effective in removing makeup and leaves your skin feeling squeaky clean without being left feeling too dry.
Another amazing thing about the product is the value! Drugstore cleansers can be hit or miss because they are often full of filler ingredients but this cleanser has nothing of the sort! The cleanser comes in a large bottle with a pump and it comes to about $10. For the size and the quality ingredients, you can't go wrong!
I even use this cleanser to clean my makeup brushes!
I would recommend this product to anybody who has sensitive, oily or combination skin.

Benefit POREfessional is a must have for me!
Due to my oily, acne-prone skin, I need to have a great primer in order to keep my makeup in place. With this product, a little goes a long way and it really does the trick! If I don't have time for makeup, I apply this alone to even out the texture of my skin or I apply it as a primer to any of my silicone based foundations!
I have tried a ton of primers from both department stores and drugstores and this is the best one i have yet to find. It's a little pricey but as I said, a little goes a long way! Definitely worth it!
If you still have any reservations, you can always request a sample from Sephora, you won't be disappointed!
