Mac lipsticks melt my heart - they come in amazing colours, and most often you can pick if you prefer a matte or glossy finish. This lipstick stays on. I have worn it through work days and it didn't fade at all. It will smear, however, so if you're doing a lot of talking or lick your lips it might mess it up a little. Things like alcohol or foods with oil might make wash it off, but I find that drinking a cup of coffee or a glass of water doesn't have any effect on it. -

I love this series of blushes! They come in a variety of colours, so you can match what works best with your skin tone or what look you're going for. You can apply it thinly and just give your skin a tint, or go hard and make it very opaque. The blush stays on, I find it often lasts the whole day and it blends nicely. Highly recommend this series especially considering the price! -

The setting powder itself is great - it's translucent so it doesn't change the colour of your foundation in any way. It leaves a smooth, light finish. But the packaging is awful. It has a small dispensing button that the closed cover presses on, so you need to close and flip the container upside-down each time you need more as it only dispenses a fairly small amount of powder, which makes it difficult when the powder is running low. So overall, the powder itself is great but the packaging is awkward and at times problematic to get the powder out when the product is running low. -

I bought this eyeliner on sale, I believe it cost $4 and it's not much more expensive when sold at regular price. Initially when I did a thick line with it I noticed that half way through the day it would leave a mark on the upper crease of my lid which was awful. But with a thin line, the product will stay on really well. It won't smear and it is waterproof. I like that the black colour is very opaque. The brush is a little stiff but the pointed end makes for precise application. -

This eyeliner works great especially considering the price. It lasts quite long, it's inexpensive and it doesn't smear. The only thing I don't like about it is that the darkest black shade still seems to be a little see-through especially on top of eye shadow,, whereas I want my eyeliner as dark as my soul. The brush also has a tendency to split and lose hairs which is a little annoying. But otherwise, I highly recommend, the quality is good. -
Listerine ZERO Antiseptic Mouthwash

Well, it's mouth wash. It tastes like mouthwash, it smells like mouthwash and it does what mouthwash should do. The reason why I would recommend this one over most others is the antiseptic, alcohol-free aspect of it. It's more gentle than standard mouthwash while getting the same job done. If like me, you have a lip piercing or are thinking about getting one somewhere in or around your mouth, this is perfect during the healing process - it kills bacteria to help prevent infections, and since it's alcohol free, it won't irritate. Mouthwash with alcohol will make the piercing healing way worse and can cause really awful swelling. Even though my lip is now fully healed I still prefer to use this mouthwash over any other. -

I love this foundation - it comes in a variety of colours, and the pale tones have more of a cool undertone, unlike drugstore foundations that often leave you looking pink or orange. The dropper is a cute idea, though this foundation is very literally liquid. It is very build-able so if you find yourself needing a little more coverage, just do a second layer. This foundation is light, with a very smooth finish and it doesn't cake. It also lasts well - I often have long work days so it's key to me that my foundation doesn't run off my face. If you find yourself running out of it quickly, remember that a little can go a long way - start with two drops to cover the whole face, and then layer up as you need. Often just two drops is enough for full-face light coverage. -

This product literally felt like fire on my face. I'm not allergic to it, it's just very strong and on sensitive skin it felt like it's burning and made me red for about 30 minutes. It dried my skin out after 3 days of using it. Your skin will get used to this product after a week of of use, but because of the strength, it is recommended for moderate to severe acne. This product did work initially, it cleared up my light breakouts despite the burning, but then it dried out my skin to the point of peeling and the breakouts started again. You will need a very strong moisturizer to prevent the dry skin clogging up your pores and making it worse. If you don't have severe acne, try a milder product as this will do more damage than good. For the price it comes at, and the fact that it is recommended you use this lotion with the toner and cleanser from the same brand, you might as well get prescription medication from a dermatologist that will be more suited for you. -

I never had a severe acne problem, but under stress, hormonal changes, or during long travels, my skin would break out. I tired many different products - cleansers, creams, scrubs, and more expensive ones including Proactive, but they never helped and only left my skin irritated and red. This product was recommended to me by a doctor when I asked for a referral to a dermatologist and it did wonders. My skin cleared up within 2-3 days and the product is gentle enough that it can be used everyday. It comes in clear, scent-free, gel form, and only a small amount is needed to cover your entire face. It takes a while to absorb, which is why it's best to use it in the evening and leave overnight. -

This foundation was a let down for a few reasons. I'll start with the good - it is very light so if you just need light coverage, this is the one to go with. The colours match skin tones very well. The foundation does not, however, last as long as it promises even with primer and setting powder which is a big no from me. The product itself goes really quickly. if you need medium coverage you'll go through this bottle in a month. It is also not as build-able as the associate claimed, so if you ever need heavy coverage, go with something else. For the price it comes at, I expected it to do better than a drugstore foundation and live up to what it claims to be. Save your money, try something else. -
