L'Oreal Paris HIP High Intensity Pigments Eye Shadow Duo
The colors are very pigmented and bright. The pink is a great opaque color. The darker pink compliments it well and is great for the crease. I found the product a little bit pricey but the quality is great. Looks great for a smokey look.

I used this foundation a couple of years ago, for a while. I wasn't very makeup conscious back then so I continued to buy it because I thought the price was good and I knew Revlon was a good brand.
It's only now that I use different foundations that I realise how bad this product worked on my skin. When I applied it I got little coverage on my scars and blemishes which is the most important thing I look for in current foundations I buy, so it would need to be built up a lot to get a reasonable coverage.
After wearing this for about 3 hours it had started to slide off my face and make my t zone look very dry. I must admit, this foundation is good when taking photos, but who wants photos when scars and blemishes are noticeable?

I LOVE this. It is my favourite ever moisturiser. I have it in the 'Botanical Blend' scent, which smells divine. Besides the smell, it moisturises like none other. I have tried the Soap & Glory 'The Righteous Butter' and 'Smoothie Star', as well as many other drugstore moisturisers, and this Vaseline one surpasses them all. PLUS, if you live in Ireland, at the moment in the Euro2 shops, it is 1.50! Incredible value, for an incredible product. Love, love love it. I am going to stock up while they are still at such a good price. -

I love the Glimmer Sticks , I have purchased several different ones, different colors, various styles of them and I have loved them all. I have blue , black . green , diamond , etc.. They really are long lasting , do not smear and I use them not only for eye liner but for my eye brows also ! Strange you think but NO , they go on very smoothly and blend very well. They work excellent for eye liner and eye brows. Double your money's worth with these very versatile sticks. They are GREAT and they last a long time. I highly recommend them. -
MAC Cosmetics Paint Pots

First off, I love the packing. Mac's packaging is usually messy and wasteful (I'm looking at you, foundation) but I love the paint pots. Unfortunately, I bought this to even out my eyelids and use it as a primer so my eyeliner won't crease. I guess it's made specifically as a primer for eye shadow because on my hooded lids my eyeliner creases with this stuff after 5 or so minutes. I've used this two days in a row, and thought the first day was a fluke as I was out in the rain a lot, but for this second day I just put it on and I'm still inside and I'm already having some creasing. Will not buy this product again. -

Seriously a must have for any makeup kit, at a fantastic price! This product is so versatile. I've used it for so many different things-as an eyeshadow base, which it's fantastic under bright colors & really makes them pop (though I wouldn't suggest using it just on it's own as a base as it may crease-over eye primer it won't though), to line my waterline, & I've also applied it with an eyeliner brush, then layered eyeshadow over it to create a colored winged liner look. I've also even used it as a base to make lipcolors-I'll just apply it to my lips, then apply a pigment or eyeshadow over it. You can literally have any lipcolor you want then. Which I love-I see all these fantastic looking crazy colored pastel & bright lipsticks lately but don't wear colors like that very often, so now I don't have to spend any extra money on lipsticks I may only use once in awhile. It glides on easily & has a nice creamy texture. -
Vaseline Original Petroleum Jelly

Ok, it's kinda greasy and you can't really use it under makeup. But for overnight healing, it's ideal. No scent, no added chemicals. Petroleum gets a bad rep but I promise, it's fine. Soothes hands, cheeks and lips. Protects in winter, and believe me our winters are brutal. This product saves me. Great alternative to those odd $30 plus creams, which I never used. Just a simple, basic barrier; occlusive, not actually moisturizing. EDIT: added one more lippie, from four. My face, hands and legs are so soft! I wish I tried this sooner. :) I also want to add that the actual Vaseline brand is the only one I use because it's pure. EDIT 2: I had a serious incident with a cheap razor. When I stepped out of the shower, I looked like I'd been attacked. After the blood dried, at night I applied this stuff. It helped. Another excellent reason to use Vaseline. Razor masacre or snake attack. They kind of look the same.
EDIT 3: ok, if you use just the right amount, you can absolutely wear it alone and under make-up. Just give it a minute or two. Also, if your body wash isn't harsh (I like Johnson's baby), not much moisturizer is needed.

My bar of soap of choice for my body and occasionally my face because like another reviewer said, it isn't slimy or sticky and no residue is left over. Just clean, soft skin. I've used on my face numerous times and haven't had a pimple afterwards, so you don't have to be choosy about spots with sensitive skin.
If you just shaved your legs a few days before, it's smooth and slippery enough to give you a close, quick shave without needing to break out the time-consuming heavier creams.
Do keep in mind what gentle means though, I wouldn't rely on this when you've just had a strenuous workout, your face is completely sweaty and you want your skin deeply cleansed. Foams up really easily, lasts a good while and isn't too pricey. Dove is a nice brand. I'll definitely keep on repurchasing!

I received this product for free for the purpose of my review. Opinions are 100% my own.
The tube was a nice shape, and cap was easy to open. The grittiness of the Crest Pro-Health toothpaste took some getting used to at first. The taste was pleasant, and my teeth had a smooth just cleaned feeling after use. My mouth felt 'fresh' after use. I have used it twice a day for 4 days, and have not noticed any whitening effect yet. Will be interested to see if there is a change when I have finished using the tube.

Let me start of by saying that I am *not* a VS fan...at all, but I can't deny a good product when I find one. The Beauty Rush glosses have been my favorite glosses for years now. Why? Because I love the squeeze tube, slant tip which makes application a breeze, most of the flavors are at least tolerable, if not good, they condition my lips, they look great straight out of the tube and even as they wear away.
What's not so great:
They don't last long: they're just a standard gloss that requires frequent touch ups. There also isn't much color payoff…I mean, really, if you're struggling between which hot pink to get, let me tell you, it doesn't matter all that much because chances are, there will only be the slightest differences in the nuances of the color once on your lips (especially if your lips are pigmented), and you will probably be the only one who notices.
Different flavors for different colors, some are shimmer, some seem like they have glitter in them, others are just a regular gloss. Almost always on special 4/$20, 2/$15, and regularly $10 a pop (which is a ridiculous price, do not pay $10 for one of these!) My favorites are Mocktail Hour (SO loves the smell and taste of this one): a very shimmery nude, Cherry Bomb-a medium red with tiny glitter, and Juiced Berry.
