Benefit Cosmetics Roller Lash Curling Mascara

I love benefit mascaras and thought that my holy grail was the They're Real mascara, but this is better and the wand makes lashes more lengthening than They're Real. This does not smudge on me and holds my curl until I remove it.
I curl my lashes before and after application because I have stubborn lashes in my outer corner that will get weighed down by this mascara.

I have dry skin and this clings to dry patches and looks like cracks in a desert. I need to heavily moisturize and use a hydrating primer, and then use a damp beauty blender before this will look nice on my skin. It does not last all day, but will get me through 6 hours before it starts to wear off around my chin and mouth, even with primer. It has a nice sheen that doesn't look greasy. I'm still on the hunt for a good foundation. Love the pump. -
Bumble and bumble Prêt-à-Powder

This is a fine texturizing powder that you shake into your roots for crazy volume. It smells very nice but is not over powering. It does not leave a very noticeable white cast after you shake it into your hair. It is pricy but I think a full size would last a long time since a little goes a long way. -
Strivectin Advanced Retinol Night Treatment
This is a good drug store retinol product for someone just starting out with Retinols. It contains shea butter as a moisturizer so there is no drying out of the skin or irritation with other retinals like ROC, etc, nor the bad smell. Start using... +
This is a good drug store retinol product for someone just starting out with Retinols. It contains shea butter as a moisturizer so there is no drying out of the skin or irritation with other retinals like ROC, etc, nor the bad smell.
Start using every 3rd night or so until you work your way to every night. I noticed my skin is firmer to the touch and more even toned, but it took a long time and I can't contribute this to only this product.
Tip: I purchased the 1.7oz tube because it is more cost effective, but I regret that. I should have bought the 1oz tube because I still have lots left and it's been over 1 year or even more. Not sure how effective the remaining tube is after that time but I paid so much for it that I don't want to toss it. I believe it has the 24 month symbol on it so I will keep it until it goes off.

I have the #3 Hydrating primer for dry skin. It is not like the silicone textured primers, but more like a white lotion. I have very dry skin and foundation usually clings to it, but not when I use this primer. Not sure if it makes my foundation last any longer than a silicone primer, but creates a smooth surface without dry patches. I like that the nozzle on the tube is long and thin, allows me to control just how much I need.
Tip: the travel size is $19 for 0.5oz while the full size is $43 for 1 oz...I will continue to buy the travel size given they are cheaper and will allow me to have fresher product.

This is such a great balm. I use it at night and I wake up to still feeling it on my lips. Nice sweet scent but not overpowering. It is a thick balm in a pot, and seems to last forever. I use mine very night and sometimes during the day, and still haven't hit bottom, and I purchased nearly a year ago. It costs $17cdn but worth every every penny, but I can see how it would be a deterrent for someone not knowing how great it is. Nice heavy glass jar. This is my holy grail. -

This is as good as Bioderma. I will never buy Bioderma again and will repurchase this instead. I have tried other drugstore micellar waters but either they had a strong scent or left a film on my skin. I can use this to take off makeup, eye makeup, or just refresh my skin in the morning when I don't want to walk my face. Great price and works just as well as Bioderma. -

This is the best drug store dry shampoo by far. Other, like Dove and Marc Anthony, leave my hair greasier than it was in the first place. The small is not over powering and only noticeable right after spraying. The white cast is pretty severe until it is brushed out. Don't spray too much in or it makes your hair feel thick and dirty. Although I use higher end dry shampoos now, I always have a back up of this. -
