1 of my friends turned me on to this.
My 1 cousin has sold MK for years and also said this was good. But at that time I had a product I really liked.
Well, sadly that got discontinued and forgetting about this, I tried Almay's makeup remover pads. Ugh!! GREASY!!
So I was invited to a MK party from 1 of the ladies at church.
Out of all the eye make up removers I've tried this was the best.
Sadly, I do not know of any, even MAC, that takes all eye make up off. Especially waterproof.
I do think this comes close though.
It is harder with the water proof but it will take it off.
And it is a little greasy but there are many out there that claim are better, no. I used a eye makeup remover pad for less greasiness I heard. Oh no!
And it removed nothing!!
Honestly, I would love to find one that is an all in 1 and not have to buy 2 for the harshness and more effectively than this.
But from all that I have tried. I would say this is the best.
tarte's eyeliner comes with remover, it's not as effective as this.
And your eyes feels so nice a soft afterwards.
I do want to look around before I buy anything tbh but I most definitely would buy again. And also, it doesn't do a good job depending on all you have on your face, but it removed foundation and blush off too.
And for those penny pitchers. Amazon sells it for less.

M&M's Peanut Chocolate Candies
LOL!! I love that the simplest things are on here. :) I suppose there maybe some that have never had these. IDK of any. :) But, for those who haven't... Um M&M;'s are the bomb! All of them. The Almond ones, the plain, Peanut Butter, these... +

All of them. The Almond ones, the plain, Peanut Butter, these, Pretzels.
I would say the pretzels are my least favorite. They're a bit too crunchy and can hurt to bite down on. But it doesn't stop me from eating them. lol
The plain and Peanuts are my favorites. I haven't seen the others around in awhile. Now I'm gonna want them. LOL

I'm not as big of a fan to Feria as I am to Preference. But IDKY maybe it's the color. The black looked like it has a hint of blue and on the box it was a blue black color and I didn't like the brown. But again, I like Preference better. IDK what's different in Feria or the regular L'Oreal.
But it's not so much about the color as it is the quality and how healthy it leaves your hair. I mean, not everyone is gonna wanna be a redhead or blonde. But when you've dyed your hair for eons with the same product and then use another cause it was on sale. You see the difference.
When I dyed my hair black, except for the dye on my scalp, no dye came off of my hair. And yeah that has to do with shampoo too but I have been dying my hair for years using the same shampoo and conditioner. Actually a 2 in 1. I have dyed my hair blonde, brown, black and red. When I dyed my hair with Garnier, not only did it look like the whole dye job was coming out of my hair, but it actually did on the ends of my hair. I tried that John Fredia is it or J something. My hair looked grey and like a dull light pink after I washed it.
Maniac Panic, that was the same as L'Oreal. And I had it pink. The only color that came out was what was on my scalp.
I switched shampoos and conditioners once, same thing. L'Oreal just knows how to make hair dye. I go to a salon and I won't get as nice of a color or long lasting.
So if you have never dyed your hair before and you are looking to. They make it very easy to understand. The only thing I do different is, I use reuseable gloves, I don't think they're rubber or Latex, I know they're not latex *allergic* but you can find them in the cleaning isle. Anyways, I use those to put the dye on, yeah it stains them but so what. And then I will either use them again if they're dried from washing. Usually not. Or I use the gloves you get in the box. With time dye will come off your skin, but who wants to walk around with red or whatever other color hands? All the gloves are are plastic in the box. Easy to tear and easy to get dye on. Not complaining, all hair dye boxes have them. I mean, if you want to use other gloves, that's up to you not L'Oreal. :) You know? Sorry making this long. But that's what I do. And for me, my hair grows slow, so it can be up to 3 months before I need to dye it again. But I really don't do the touch up. Only because I am cheap. LOL Not so much on my make up but in the quanity of things I am. If touch up is like $10 and regular hair dye is $8, it really doesn't do a difference in color. And my hair is weird it likes to grow and be healthy when I have chemicals on it. So I don't have a problem like if I'm bleach blonde and hair ash blonde roots, I go red. Anyways, ok I'll shut up now. LOL

I'm not as a big fan of lip stick as I used to be. But I have to stay any of their lipsticks I had, I was always pleased with them. I wish I remembered the 1 I wore all the time.
It was kind of like a tawny, nude, plush pinky color. IDK I kind of said that for me to see if any made me remember. LOL Too long ago though.
Anyways, I think L'Oreal is the best out of the drugstore makeups.
They have great products. I love their hair color. I'm allergic to the TruMatch but I wish I wasn't cause that was great and would love to use it as a back up when I'm out of the 1 I use now.
I have had a few of their kids' products. No complaints from me.
But any lipstick aside from the color is gonna be great.
It's really about skin tone or sensitivity. I can get the same shade as my mom and it come out deeper color or brighter on me. Whereas it will look the same as the stick as it does on my mom.
Or it can look the same on me but darker on my mom. So really it's all about the tone color of your skin.
If you're looking for a last all day lipstick. I got news for you. I've tried matte lipsticks, glosses, stains, and by all kinds of brands. No matter what any company tells you, if you eat, drink, whatever. It'll come off. Maybe not as fast as others, but point is, you will need to touch up throughout the day.
So in that area, do you want to spend money on something you may not like that will last maybe an hour at most longer than this or would you rather just touch this up and be happy? 80% of my lipsticks are from L'Oreal. I have not found a stain I was impressed with, and glosses, I'm too hooked on MAC to try others. I loved Max Factor's clear gloss but it was discontinued and apparently so has that wand.
But whether it's this color or another, you shouldn't have a problem. I have very sensitive skin and all the years I've used L'Oreal, not 1 problem. And as some may laugh. Before I found the blush I use now. I had an Estee Lauder blush, I dropped it and it broke. I needed blush. So I took a little bit of a reddish pink lipstick and used that. It worked great. So you could try that too. LOL It sounds funny but if it works, why not right?

L'Oreal Kids 2 in 1 Shampoo In Watermelon
Oh! So I dont think it was this scent. Though I had so many for my niece, maybe at 1 time I did. But I know the scent of it and how gold it does so unless your child doesn't like the smell, that would be the only downfall. I really can't say... +
Oh! So I dont think it was this scent. Though I had so many for my niece, maybe at 1 time I did. But I know the scent of it and how gold it does so unless your child doesn't like the smell, that would be the only downfall.
I really can't say anything bad about this. You could probably wash your child head to toe in to if you ask me. LOL
The smell is not too strong or fake. It really does smell like watermelon. All of their scents smell exactly what they say they are. It leaves your child's hair soft, manageable and shiny. Not like a greasy shine but like a healthy shine.
And this maybe tmi for some. My niece had caught lice from another kid in school. Her mom, my other sister, my mom and I, my grandma even. We all tried shampoo after she was clean of it cause her hair was just, went through so much. And this just revived it.
We had tried Johnson's baby shampoo because it wasn't harsh and that may have helped a little. It didn't look as good as it did when I washed her hair with this. I even used it once and it made my hair look good.
I have no kids so I have no use for it, as I am a Wen girl. LOL But if I ever do have kids, I would buy it again.

I love L'Oreal's hair dye. And honestly out of all the drugstore makeup products, I'd say they are the best.
But in terms of this, it's a miss.
I had the one that was in the squeeze tube.
I had gotten the correction one and the foundation. Either can be worn as a stand alone foundation.
Well, I have super pale skin and finding a foundation is very hard.
So when someone recommended it to me, I tried it.
You know, when it comes to foundations I have yet to find one that doesn't smell or come off easy.
And this did both but not as bad as some I've tried in the past.
I think I'm just gonna have to live with that any foundation is gonna smell.
So all that I could live with it had gotten A's in.
Until it started to itch.
I was sad cause it matched my skin tone. YAY!!
I mean I really wanted this to be the 1 to stick with.
But, I couldn't stand the itchy feeling any longer.
It made my ears red hot, I was breaking out in hives.
I was obviously allergic to it.
I have had the hardest time finding a foundation that has matched to this.
Until Sephora gave me a sample of something in my birthday gift bag. I love that store. hehe
It's not on this site either. So I'll post it when I can.
So for me, no I will never buy this again but you know, I loved the lightness of it, how it really does match your skin tone, it wasn't caky or oily looking. And a little really did go a long way.
I also got a TruMatch blush with the 2 tubes, that doesn't itch or anything. It's a nice shade too. I don't think I'll get it again though. I'm gonna finish up the tube, but I really love Too Faced's blush better.
I will recommend this because I think it was me than the product.
But it will have to be a no for me.

Lemme try to keep this short cause I've been writing long reviews it seems and no one wants a book to read. LOL
I'm super pale. I have sensitive skin.
Lightest shade of this was about 2-3 shades darker. It stunk. It ran. It was caky. It made me very shiny/oily looking. It was heavy.
It felt disgusting. It came off when I scratched my nose.
Though, IDK any that don't feel disgusting or stinks.
On the plus side it didn't itch.
Others I've tried all itched.
So to sum up, no don't waste your money on this.

eos Organic Smooth Spheres Lip Balm in Sweet Mint
I love anything minty on my face or lips. So when I tried this, I fell in love. It's so cool and soothing. It's not a strong cooling sensation. No tingling or anything like that. For me, it's just very cool and soothing.

There is no lemony taste to it. I like that for 2 reasons. 1 I want the taste of tea not lemonade in my tea and 2 I'm allergic. Obviously though its artificial flavoring or theres so little of it, it doesn't affect me. But I've drank this all my life. And will till the day I die probably. lol
