This kit comes with three mineral eyeshadow shades, a wide all over shadow brush, a contour blending brush and eyeliner pencil with sharpener cap [such a cool cap!!!]. There are also directions for E.L.F's version of a smokey eye. This kit was definitely worth the amount of money I spent. I'm new to mineral make up and this was the best way to start. The eyeshadow colors go together really well and feel absolutely weightless while you wear them. Following their directions for the look took me about ten minutes to achieve and it was quite simple. Very easy to blend and would probably look flattering on just about any girl. My least favorite product was the eye-pencil[I gave up on it and cheated with my liquid liner instead hehe]. I much prefer liquids but that's just me it might be a decent pencil. Brushes are soft and very nice quality, no shedding or weird shapes. The only thing this kit was missing is a mascara but what girl doesn't have THAT already? This was one of my first E.L.F purchases and surely will not be the last!!! -
Clean & Clear Morning Burst Shine Control Facial Scrub with Bursting Beads

Morning burst is the perfect name for this product. It feels AMAZING in the morning-- wakes me right up! The crisp, refreshing scent of lemongrass is absolutely fantastic and the beads are smooth and great for exfoliating. My only beef with this product is that it can be a bit drying so I only use it every now and then to wake me up on my zombie days. Probably not good for dry or acne prone skin. Great for the price though! -

ChapStick is pretty much the original for most people. I am here on a secret mission to make you see the light, however! For years and years my mother swore by her ChapStick. She bought one for everyone in the family come winter time usually. I always had that little red tube in my tiny pocket books when I was younger. But finally my mother broke down in here favorite place [dollar store] and got a different product called Carmex. It is absolutely amazing! Carmex might be slightly thicker of a product but the intensity of it definitely outweighs that point. It instantly moisturizes and starts to tingle [in a good way]. Within minutes I can rub my lips together and all my dead skin seems to just ball up and disappear with Carmex. ChapStick seems to just sit on top of my problem areas and sort of smooth them out instead of just peeling off the dead skin. To me ChapStick is the more expensive, tastier brand. I'd rather have smooth lips than chapped ones that might taste like cherries. -

I love the metal roller ball it feels great against your lips. It is cheap and a fairly effective balm. It comes out super glossy and is one of the most lightweight balms I've tried to date. The cherry tastes pretty good but it isn't a very yummy flavor or anything. The package is small so it's good for travel but I feel it doesn't last as long as the original pot of Blistex [that lil' blue guy we all love]. I picked this up thinking it would be a good summer alternative to our trusty friend but I probably wouldn't purchase this again. It's not very long lasting and just doesn't moisturize enough. I prefer the original formula or Softlips. -

Carmex is a brand that my mother has bought for ages from the local dollar stores. It is super effective! This is definitely one of the holy grails to cheap, amazing beauty! I never run out of this product. Everyone in the house uses it [except the cat]. It is a medicinal smell but it feels so0o good on your lips who cares what it smells like? The menthol really plumps up my lips too! I even use this balm during the summer months because it never feels super heavy or greasy. Once you get it you will find yourself reapplying it just for the nice tingly sensation it gives you. I'd recommend this product to just about anyone; from practical to diva. Just try to find it in the squeeze tube because the pot is a little annoying once you get towards the bottom of it. -

I got a kit that contained this mascara for xmas this year. Now that it is mid-May I think I can do a fair review on it. hehe. The kit contained the Stileto mascara, a quad of 'smokey eye' shades, black liquid liner and instructions of how to achieve their version of the smokey eye. This has been my go-to make up ever since I purchased it at Wal*Mart for around $20USD. The shadows don't crease or fade away even in the hot Miami weather, the liner never crumbles and the mascara never flakes away. I always get compliments on my very dramatic smokey eyes from this kit. The mascara itself is HUGE and very easy to apply. Mine did not come with the wiggly wand-- it's straight with nice big bristles. It seems like it is going to last for ages! I know I should have replaced it by now but it's not drying up at all and goes on just as flawlessly as the day I bought it. I like that I can build up with this product. To make my look super dramatic I let each coat dry fully before I add another. It does all it promises to and more. Try to find the kits if you like Maybelline's products they are SO worth it!! -

Space girl is amazing if you love the color purple and the smell of sweet black currant and blackberries in your bath! There is a very minimal amount of glitter in this one. I was hoping for more inside of the bomb (I love this for clubbing no need to add glitter or carry around a tube of sparklies)! The scent is simply delightful and relaxed me as soon as I got into the tub. It's perfect for a night in or out because it leaves you feeling so soft and yummy smelling! My boyfriend actually got jealous that I used this new bomb without him. Lush gets EVERYONE addicted!!! Has anyone else noticed the prices for bombs has gone up, the amount of actual bomb[grams] has gone down and the shipping has lowered? That's my only complaint with lush. Stop tweaking the prices and making the bombs smaller! XD -

Urban Decay makes some of the best lipstick! The packaging is flippin' sweet as well; I always get compliments when I'm freshening up my UD make up in public. I have the shade Midnight Cowboy and it's a great nude with silver shimmer. My favorite part about UD lipstick is that they are very moisturizing unlike most brands that made my lips dry and cakey after awhile.A little expensive but it's worth it ladies! Spend more and get a TON more. -

I have not had this product for long but it is one of the best mascaras I have used to date. I have used all kinds from Great Lash to Chanel and this is one of my top picks! It is a very light weight mascara, easy to apply several coats for more *drama* just a bit expensive but most of my products seem to be these days...not sure if it will dry up fast hope not. Someone let me know! -

Once a week you should buff off your dead skin cells with an exfoliator. A lot of them are made with ground up seeds and bark from fruits and trees. That all SOUNDS great, but is way too harsh for your facial skin. The layers of skin on your face are a LOT thinner than on the rest of you body so you need to be extremely gentle with it. Elemis' Rose Exfoilator has smooth jojoba pearls that slough off dead cells and dirt without any irritation. Save the nuts and bark for the rest of your body-- it will love them. Meanwhile your face will thank you for choosing something gentler. -
