Ardell Magnetic Lashes

I. AM. OBSESSED!!! I’ve never been good at applying false lashes. Ever since high-school when we had to wear them for our dance troupe shows, I always had to get help. These are easy to apply and stay on EVEN if you tear up or go to the pool because the magnetic eyeliner stays put even with little splashes of water — just please don’t go swimming with it, but would totally last if you attend a pool party and don’t go under water ;-) -

I can not get over this pallet, the smell is yummy and it honestly exceeded my expectations in every way. You can get a natural look with this super pigmented palett. Oh you want to go out to a club? Girl this pallet has got your back no matter what outing/event you may go to. The burnt browns/orange's give you the perfect doe eyes to charm your way into any conversation.
The pigments are also out of this world, it basically blends itself.

Wild Honey is a soft, medium brown with warm undertones and a satin finish. It had good pigmentation with a soft, smooth texture--it seemed more pigmented than my individual (though Becca's blushes are supposed to be buildable, actually)! This shade wore well for eight hours on me. It’s on the pricey side but totally worth it! -

I love the way this loose powder makes my face feel silky smooth. I use Sephora liquid highlighter, tarte cream foundation, and KVD contouring powders and after I apply all my makeup.. I usually have that dewy feeling skin. Once I apply my finishing powder, my face literally feels like I’m wearing NO makeup. Makes my face feel smooth and soft to touch. Usually last about 6-8 hours before my skins natural oils start to get shiny. But I have the travel size in my purse for quick touch ups. I work in the medical field so I’m required to wear a mask 95% of the time at work. And I hardly have any makeup residue on my mask. Keeps all my makeup in place. Also, the powder is so fine that even if it kind of flakes off my brush as I apply it.. it doesn’t irritate my eyes at all. Plus I get about a month or two use out of one standard sized container. Doesn’t take much powder to do the job. Worth every penny! -

Makes me feel like I’m in my 20’s again! Not your average tinted lip balm, these have an almost gloss-like consistency, and they condition as well as add a hint of color and a degree of sun protection (SPF10). I've been regularly applying both the Coral and Ultra Pink shades for a couple of years now and having recently used them up, I ordered the Raspberry shade, along with the two that I needed to replenish. What can I say...I love the new shade even more than the other two! It looks like an intense pink in the tube and online, but it's actually a subtle translucent pink once applied, that's just perfect for daytime use. Even once it's eventually worn off there's still a nice hint of color on my lips that looks natural. The color also lasts a long time without me having to regularly touch up throughout the day (once or twice at the very most). The formula itself is very hydrating which means it keeps dryness at bay much better than most other lip products I've used, no need for applying a balm beforehand, and it's great for keeping your lips supple and moisturized yet without the stickiness of most lip balms. The perfect and subtle cross between a gloss, balm and a lipstick. Love the sleek packaging and the vanilla-based fragrance too! -
TOO FACED Glitter POP! Peel-Off Eyeliner

Hey Mr DJ is Black liquid eyeliner with gold flecks. Its so pretty on the back of my hand. But on my eyes? Its just not.
I have a difficult time getting the glitter on one eye to match the glitter on the other eye. But getting it even doesn't solve the problem - the glitter itself just seems the wrong size and the glitter is disappointingly sparse and lackluster. On the plus side - it REALLY DOES peel off, and the brush is great at making a thin straight line. I may actually dump the product and keep the brush.
To apply, you'll have to dip your brush multiple times into the Glitter Pop liquid to complete a line because the brush is so small it doesn't hold much product. And you DO need to be generous with the amount you apply. First - the more you apply, the easier it is to peel off. If you skimp, its shreds as you try to remove it. Second - you need to be generous because this stuff shrinks a little as it dries. If you don't apply enough, evenly enough, the eyeliner can pull apart while its drying and a little "naked" skin colored section will be left in the break that you will have to touch up.
The problem is Hey Mr DJ isn't good at being black. It isn't good at beling glittery. And doesn't bring pop or shine to your eye. It looks distracting. It looks like you don't know how to apply your own makeup.
I also own the gold version of this - called Lucky Btch. The same rules of application apply but its a much better product. It makes a beautiful "second" line of eyeliner next to black eyeliner. Its glittery and gold and catches the light. No complaints about that one. Just know that neither of these shades is a multi use product the way that Stila Glitter & Glow (and their similarly named products) is. Glitter and Glow is eyeshadow that can be used as intended, or sheered out, or applied in a single line as eyeliner. You can't use Too Faced Glitter Pop as eyeshadow and you can't use it sheered out.
If peel off glittery eyeliner appeals to you, I recommend you try their gold one (Lucky Btch) or one of their other colors. Leave Hey Mr DJ on the shelf.
