Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade is what I consider to be 95% smudge-free and waterproof brow product. I absolutely am in love with this product. It comes of very easy with face wash and water.
I strongly recommend all audiences to purchase Anastasia brush number 12, as it works great to build definition and shape of the brow. The pomade provides a buildable and a very natural looking coverage (as long as you don't do a sloppy looking job).
I find that I have to apply more product to the areas that I see requires more coverage. A little goes a very, very long way. This stuff lasts forever.
This pomade was a little difficult to work with at first (if you are a beginner), but with more practice, I find myself working in some fun and new brow shapes. This product is amazing, specifically if you apply the Anastasia tinted brow gel as a top coat.

Make Up For Ever Mist & Fix Setting Spray

This Mist & Fix setting spray really locks in makeup and keeps colour fresh. The mist and fix does not lock in makeup for 12 hours, as I feel that I start to get oily throughout the day. I find that it does help to keep the moisturizer locked in. I may need to spray up to two times.
The only problems I have are how heavy it sprays. I made the mistake of first spraying it close to my face, which left my face soaking with mist. I have wasted much of this product by doing this, so therefore, I spray at least 7-8 inches away from my face, in a very quick up/down motion. Once you learn the proper technique in spraying the Mist & Fix, it should last to about 5-8 months, with daily use.
I personally feel that the setting spray is a little expensive. Essentially, paying $32.00 for the large size. The small size for 1.01 oz is fro $12.00, vs. the larger 4.22 oz for $30.00. It is much more cost effective to purchase the large size and fill it in an empty spritz bottle for travel and convenience purposes.

After reading rave reviews about the Anastasia Beverly Hills Tamanna limited edition Eye Shadow Palette I had to purchase one myself. Having a medium/olive colour skin tone, this eye shadow palette gave me 10 beautiful colours to work with. A perfect blend of neutral to dramatic shades, from day to evening wear.
The brush that it comes with works well with highlighting and blending; in addition to four step-by-step instruction cards on how to recreate some of the looks that Tamanna had created herself. The instructions are well written and very easy to follow. I recommend that blending is the key to achieving these beautiful looks.
Several important attributes about the the palette are that there is no fall out. The formulas are highly pigmented. They can be worn wet and dry and truly works great. I am absolutely in love with the velvety smooth finish, that it claims. So true.
Ladies if you are looking for an affordable, beautiful, luxurious, highly pigmented and long wearing product buy it!
Aways apply eye shadow primer for a more long lasting effect.

Despite the price being rather expensive for this eyeliner it is worth your money. One bottle lasts me about six-eight months with regular usage. The felt tip is very smooth and application is very easy. A cat eye and winged liner can easily be achieved with this extremely pigmented and soft felt tip art liner. I love the fact that it will not budge nor smear and that it is very easy to remove with your face wash. I recommend this eyeliner to everyone including those people who experience eye sensitivity. -

Due to the rave reviews about Estee Lauder's Double Wear stay in place makeup foundation I decided to try a 10 day sample in 3N1 Ivory Beige and 3W1 Tawny. The 3N1 Ivory Beige targets the light-meduium neutral skin tones, while the 3W1 is a beautiful warm medium colour foundation for olive skin tones.
I have never tried a cosmetic brand that offers so much variety for every skin tones from a porcelain, fair, medium to deep skin tone. One attribute that I love about this foundation is that it does not tend to oxidize on my combination skin, like many other foundations have done. I prefer to apply a light moisturizer, primer, setting power and spray to get a 100% flawless and airbrushed effect. I use a foundation brush to apply a very light first coat, wait a minute and apply a second coat (if needed). I generally use a Kabuki brush to blend further to get a more natural and airbrushed effect
This foundation will get caky if you apply to much, since little goes a very long way. It is very important to select an appropriate foundation colour for your skin tone- warm, neutral, or cool. Guess what, Lauder double wear caters to many diverse skin tone. After about 8 hours Il noticed some shine spots, which can be fixed by brushing on some translucent or a light pressed power.
If you want a foundation that will last for 10 hours, and is honestly picture perfect, invest in a bottle, but don't forget to get a colour match! Moreover, If you have not tried this foundation I100% recommend it.
