Makeup Geek Blacklight Duo-Chrome Eye Shadow
I love this duo-chrome eyeshadow. It shifts from a light purple to a blue-ish colour, depending on how the light hits it or what other colours you wear it with. It was one of my first MUG purchases and a big part of why I keep buying from them.

Makeup Geek Day Dreamer Foiled Eye Shadow
Think about a regular shimmer eye shadow and then crank it up to 10. This light purple foiled shadow is intense. Use it over a wet base or glitter primer for even more intensity. I love it and wear it when I want a high shine shadow.

Makeup geek shimashima
Beautiful champagne shimmer eye shadow. It would look good on many skin tones. Soft & buttery. Great for a lid shade, inner corner highlight or browbone highlight

Makeup Geek Stardust Shimmer Eye Shadow
This shadow is a soft white, maybe slightly champagne-hued shimmer eye shadow. Great inner corner highlight, good for adding light shimmer to the lid. Creamy and smooth

Makeup Geek Hot Pants Shimmer Eyeshadow

I love the way this looks in the pan (which is much more intense in person than in a photo) but it doesn't translate well to the eye. I tried applying with a brush, with my finger, over a wet base, over glitter primer, etc. but I couldn't get the colour pay-off I wanted. I normally love Makeup Geek shadows but this left a bit to be desired. -
Elf cosmetics lip exfoliator

I'm glad I got this product during a sale because I would be even more disappointed if I paid full price.
It's hard, it's not easy to get the product on your lips and when you do, the scrub is too harsh. I use these sorts of products regularly since I love liquid lipstick, which dries out your lips. I'm always looking for a good exfoliator and bonus points if it adds moisture too. This one is just hard wax. Don't waste your money.

Coty Airspun Translucent Extra Coverage Loose Face Powder
I bought this on a trip to the US becuase I haven't seen it here in Canada. I was shocked at how cheap it was. Around $7 for a huge container - like I don't think I will have to buy another for a few years kind of big. I got the "extra coverage... +
I bought this on a trip to the US becuase I haven't seen it here in Canada.
I was shocked at how cheap it was. Around $7 for a huge container - like I don't think I will have to buy another for a few years kind of big.
I got the "extra coverage translucent" which is an odd sort of thing. It doesn't add colour but it's hard to explain. It looks nice on the skin, I have some fine lines and it doesn't really exaggerate them or anything. I can use under my eyes or all over my face, it works well in both areas. If you bake, this might be good, since you get so much of it.
It does have a strong scent. Overpowering at times. It's the only thing I don't like about it. The scent goes away fairly quickly but I can smell it even with the jar closed. It's also a little messy if you don't store it upright.

I love this setting spray. It works to make makeup last all day, helps keep my skin matte (which is a challenge, I'm quite oily) and makes my makeup look less powdery.
It has a good sprayer on it. I find that a lot of drugstore sprays can be too much, or have big drops, but this sprayer gives a fine mist, exactly what you want.
I always have a backup because I hate using any other setting spray if I run out.

If you're into odd colours and glitter liquid lipsticks, these are right up your alley.
They have a number of interesting colours, some nicer than others. I ordered Fantasy and found it too light - it's a very light, glittery purple - but it's nice over the top of a darker lipstick.
These do dry your lips pretty badly, so make sure you use a good lip balm before. They are also a little bit gritty, but there is a lot of glitter, so what can you really expect?
