First a big thanks to chick advisor!
I have to admit that at first I was a bit skeptical as to how well this product would measure up to more expensive brands, as I have had my fair share of negative run ins with drugstore brand foundations. I am very happy to say I was wrong.
I got the light (#3) which turned out to be a shade darker than I needed, but the product blends so well and has a really natural finish that it looked okay once applied. It makes my skin look pretty much flawless, and I like that it has a medium cover that covers imperfections but doesn't obliterate my freckles.
I usually use a pore minimizing primer under my foundation, but for my trial run with this, I skipped it. I have found that a lot of makeup makes my pores look bigger, but this foundation didn't. In fact I think they look a bit smaller!
I always feel makeup on my skin, and am always aware that I have "something on" but I find that with this that feeling is gone. As corny as it sounds I really do forget that I am wearing it, until I pass by a mirror and see how great my skin looks that is.
The only thing I would change is the applicator, while I do like the pump, not enough comes out at a time. Also, this foundation (as with most liquids) does need a translucent powder to set it and keep away the oiliness throughout the day.
I will be buying this in the future!

I got a sample of this from my dentist because my teeth are really close together and it makes flossing difficult and to be honest annoying. The floss slides in much easier that normal stuff and has a nice mintyness.

I always used to buy the giant bags of those little kid flossers, because my teeth are so tight together that it is really difficult to floss. Then I saw these. Not only was it cute and pink, but it was an alternative to what I have been using. It makes flossing much easier, and while it still gets stuck in my teeth from time to time, I am quite happy with it. -
I found these on a crazy low clearance last year at payless and had to get them. They are very cute and sooo comfortable (but so is pretty much anything from airwalk) and are great for just bumming around in on the weekends without looking sloppy.

I have been using "ballet slippers" as the pink for my french manicures. The colour goes on a bit translucent and is a natural baby pink. It tends to be a bit fussy and streaks really easy, but I'm hooked on the colour and finish of it so it is worth fussing with. -

I have had this alarm clock for years, it got me through college and is super easy to set and change settings. I love that it lets you wake up to a cd instead of radio and that the numbers are big and clear (so I can even read it from bed without my glasses on). I don't know what I will do if I ever have to replace it. -
Etsy is pretty much the best handmade boutique type website going. The sellers are amazing (at least the ones I have dealt with are) and the products are exactly what they say they are. You can find pretty much anything and in any price range.

I had always wanted a sound machine, so when I saw this on sale I knew I had to have it. It is the most relaxing thing ever! It is great in the bathroom for long baths, in the bedroom to help you sleep or even just as background noise while you putter at home. I love the white noise and thunderstorms. -
I always buy the grapefruit scent because not only does it work just as well (if not better) than chemical based cleaners, it smells great and makes cleaning just that little bit more enjoyable.

I got the dark chocolate raspberry ones and wasn't really that pleased with them. The chocolate its self wasn't too bad, but the raspberry filling wasn't what I had hoped for. It wasn't similar to a truffle filling, like I thought it would have been, and had an overly sweet artificial taste. -
