Maybelline Color Tattoo Eye Shadow - Barely Branded
Fantastic eye shadow base. This stuff is a gorgeous shimmery champagne that sets within seconds and holds eyeshadow all day. It even looks great on its own! Colour tattoos ftw.

I don't like how they keep changing the shade names and packaging design though... hope the product hasn't changed. This is better than Touche Eclat IMO. -
Shiseido Foundation Brush
Fantastic brush. Short synthetic bristles, but a TON of them. This makes applying mousse foundation the easiest thing in the world. It washes great and has a nice short handle. Big win.

OMG. Obsession alert. I got this stuff in France and I can't seem to find it in Canada, but it is incredible. I think it's the same type of product as Maybelline dream mousse. I'm going to buy it this week and try it out! This foundation goes on super velvety, has great coverage and doesn't require powdering to stay matte and in place. Super love. -
Real Techniques Blush Brush
Love this thing! Works amazing for powders, really soft and a great shape. Just wish there were a few more bristles pack in.

Chanel Poudre Universelle
I have the Chanel Poudre Universelle in 20 Clair and it really isn't worth the price. Not even a little bit. Doesn't do anything more than Rimmel Stay Matte.. you just get a nice compact i guess!

stila cosmetics Convertible Color in Peony
This is a perfect cream blush for all skin tones. Although a bit pricy, a little goes a long way and the colour is absolutely stunning. It's truly the perfect blush peachy pink tone. Try it out!

After falling in love with the shade "Satin Sheets" from Too Faced, I was all over the Boudoir Eyes palette when it was released about a year ago. For my greenish brown eyes, this palette works perfectly for achieving any type of look. The palette itself is about 3x4 inches and is enclosed in a metal box with a magnetic clasp. In place of a mirror, there is an inspiration/how-to booklet included inside the palette. I love the durability of the metal casing and lack of useless applicators or excessive cardboard.
Ease of Use: 9/10
Amazing pigmentation and beautiful application. The only difficult part is not using too much product when dipping into the darker shades.
Lasting Power and Appearance: 9/10
Very long-wearing, but only when an eyeshadow primer is applied beforehand. Gorgeous quality shadows and very unique colours, but remember to blend out and avoid over-application. I love how there is a super dark and snazzy matte black that can be used as an eyeliner shade. Very functional.
Packaging: 10/10
Great packaging! Durable, lightweight and beautiful. I wouldn't mind an added travel sized brush (not sponge-tip) since the Too Faced brushes are supposed to be very nice. Although considering the price, I wouldn't want to pay more for that.
Price/Value: 7/10
Where high-end eyeshadow is concerned, this palette is a pretty good value. With shades ranging from very light to very dark, I have no complaints. There are no duds and they are all very high quality and unique colours. for $45 CAD, this palette is suited for those who would reach for it frequently.

This is a really interesting product. It's a clear solid gel stick that twists up like a jumbo lip balm. It's supposed to be a mix of all kinds of oils and stuff (grape, cocoa, shea, avocado, macadamia, aloe, chamomile) yet it doesn't have any kind of natural scent.. if anything it's a bit chemical-y. For the hands this is a cool product that works decently, but I wouldn't put it on my face (as directed). For only a few dollars it is a decent buy. I'd sooner use the Palmer's shea butter swivel stick though! -
