I was lucky to be selected as one of Maybelline advocates and one of items i received for testing purposes was this liquid illuminating highlighter. I got it in shade 100 light. This product is really outstanding. Light is so sheer, glowy and natural looking. I really loved it. I applied it on top of cheekbones, cupid bow, bridge of nose. And it really looks very natural. Easy to apply, blends very good, i would say it simply melts. A little goes a long way, you really need so tiny of product. Very good product Maybelline! I will definitely repurchase it. -

I was lucky to be selected as one of Maybelline advocates and one of items i received for testing purposes was this colour correcting kit. Well with this product i have love/hate feelings. The idea of making the palette with all you need for correcting and concealing was good, though its not original. And i would say there are better products in this category in the market even for affordable prices. To my opinion without highlights this palette would be better. Because after you applied color correct, foundation and concealer i would prefer to go with lighter and kinda powdery highlight, but not with that included in the kit (they are creamy, not so pigmented, so you need to layer them a lot, and colours are really not thatt great). It becomes to heavy and noticeable and not natural looking. So i disliked highlighters and wish they would have included one more lighter shade concealer and pink color to correct. Grab free idea Maybelline ;). So from whole palette i used only 3 colours - green, yellow and one from concealers, the lighter one (i still wish they would make a lighter shade for undereyes, because it would have highlight itself, and you won't need 2 products). Correcting colours works, but they are not so pigmented. It is not a disadvantage in this case, because less is better, you always can add more, otherway you end up looking like clown. Concealer colours - meh.. Only one is good to cover some blemishes, but it still to dark for undereyes. And i'm not fair. I have light skin.
I think this product needs to be reconstructed. It feels not finished. I won't buy whole palette for 3 pans. I can find them separately or buy another kit which includes correcting colours and several concealer (very light for undereyes, light for everything and i don't mind darker one for girls darker than me, but i still could make it work, as an eye base for example). Good example of nice palette has Catrice, but they dont have yellow colour. The brush is very cheap and there is no need for it in the kit.

I was lucky to be selected as one of Maybelline advocates and one of items i received was this foundation. I was actually surprised with its quality. The shade i got is warm nude. I have light skin with neutral undertone, so i can wear almost any undertone. This warm shade is perfect for summer, for winter i will stick with neutral and cool undertone shades. Anyway color is amazing, shade suit me very well. I used this foundation for almost a week now and i can tell, that i love it. It blends easily, don't dry too fast like some other foundations (covergirl or estee lauder double wear for example). When it's absorbed it become matte, but not cakey, really i would say more velvety, very beautiful finish. I tried it with and without primer. Of course primer (i use pore vanishing one) helps this foundation to achieve its claim - poreless, but without primer also works, just not so long. But anyway everybody use primers now and this is great. It lasts quiet long, 8 hours for sure without touch ups, which makes it great choice for everyday use. Unfortunately towards evening my oily skin remind of herself and skin looks a bit shiny., but it is normal, and only few foundations can handle more. What else is great about this product - it doesn't feel heavy on skin, but provides very good buildable coverage. I would say medium to full. In feeling wise it reminds me of Lancome foundation (the only one i don't feel on skin). So it is a very very descent affordable foundation. The only bad about it - it has no pump. Ughh.. i hate it. Honestly. Thats why i took 1 star out. Please don't make packaging ruin so amazing product. I had to order pump from amazon, waiting for it.
Will i repurchase it - i think i will. And i will buy it for sure if they will make it with a pump.

This is really amazing and very gentle make up remover. Very affordable and quality is simply wonderful. I don't use waterproof makeup though, but on regular it works like a charm. I will buy only this from now on.

Hated it! The packaging is cheap and poor, and it takes time to actually open it. Powder itself also horrible, it applies heavy, no matter what brush I used. That brush attached to container is good for cleaning dirty sink or dishes, and not for powder, it is very hard, even hurts the skin, when I tried it. Awful product. -

It is very decent foundation. It stays all day and never dries skin or look cakey. It reminded me of my all time favourite foundation from Max Factor. I used it when I lived in Europe. Unfortunately it is not sold in Canada, but Covergirl is it's sister brand. I guess that's why I found them kinda similar. And it is great for Max Factor fans. I will definitely buy this foundation again. -
Tarte Marajuca Oil
Very light oil, it was great even as a moisturizer. Though I used it several nights a week. For daytime wear it's to slow to absorb, I have combination to oily skin. Smell is good and it never clogged pores.

Josie Maran Argan Liquid Gold Self-Tanning Oil
Actually, it is very nice dry oil. It absorbs quickly, smells like coffee to me. It really adds some sun to my face, I like it. Though it is harder to distribute evenly, than lotion formulas. You have to work fast.
