I found the Sheercover starter set in my mom's room one day. She'd ordered it a while before, and never ended up even trying it out. I decided to test it.
I really liked the coverage that the concealer provided, but it was a little too thick for my liking. It did cover up blemishes and discolouration pretty well. After concealing, I brushed the mineral foundation evenly on my face. Note that it will cake if you don't moisturize. It did give very good coverage. Not every single flaw was unseen, but it did an exceptional job. I wore it out to work. My skin, which becomes oily, was not a greaseball with this makeup. It did have a kind of heavy feel to it, though. At the end of the day, I went home and noticed that I had broke out in a couple zits. This is not unusual or usual, as I am acne-prone (though my skin had been clear for a couple of months) so I thought nothing of it. I followed the daily routine for the next 2 days, and I was not pleased. I had broken out in more than "just a couple of zits".
I suppose this foundation is okay for a short night out if you want to have that full coverage, but don't leave it on for too long, or else it'll clog your pores and break you out. I will consider using this again if I want to achieve that really great coverage for a special event.

I received Marcelle Volume Precision Mascara as a gift. My lashes are skinny but incredibly long, so I decided to try it right away to make my skinny lashes more volumized. I wore it out for a couple hours, and when I came back home, I noticed it had left dark smudges under my eyes. This happens frequently with other mascaras, so I didn't think that much of it, even though the others last longer without smudging. I wore it another time, and when I brushed my eye softly with my hand, it flaked. It had only been, 5 or 10 minutes since I'd put it on, and this disappointed me.
It did, however, do a good job on separating and thickening the lashes. The brush had lots of bristles, which really helped in this process. The thing I hated about the brush was that it was flimsy and floppy, which made it a pain in the ass to put back in.
If you're willing have flaky mascara and smudges within half an hour in order to achieve separated, voluminous lashes, then go ahead and buy this. I'm not really sure how much it costs, as I got it as a gift. I don't recommend it, however. It's probably not worth your money.
