This is the go - to foundation on a daily basis for me, over Nars, Clinique, Bourjois and Make up forever. The shade match is perfect (180) and is so easy to use. I use my fingers to blend my foundation and this foundation can be put on within a couple of minutes.
The coverage is medium - it is not a heavy foundation but perfect for daily use. I do need concealer to cover my freckles and other scars but is not necessary. Even though you can see the fine shimmer in the bottle, it does not show up on your face. The staying power is good at about 5 hours on my combination skin. Another plus is the pump and the SPF. For a drugstore foundation, I think I have found my HG!

This is a makeup that Clinique boasts as something that will fade your acne scars. Even with the addition of vitamin C, no makeup can fade spots. But I do really like the consistency and the coverage this foundation provides. I have a pretty oily t zone and normal cheek areas. This foundation does stay on for about 6 hours or, which is a long time for my skin type. Also it has SPF 15 which I like.
The coverage is beautiful (should be applied with fingers, not with a sponge or a brush). It has a dewy finish, without it being shiny. The colour tends to run a bit dark on the skin; try to find a shade that is one shade lighter. But overall I am happy with this because it does provide medium coverage and does not look cakey.

This was on sale at the drugstore and I bought it to tame my frizzy but not curly hair. This is a very thin gel that does not have any hold but does the trick of taming the frizz and makes my hair super soft! I was skeptical at first, but the first time I used it, I let my hair air dry. And this product really helped with keeping my hair kink free and stright. It has no scent, easy to use and has become a daily staple. -

As a person with stick straight lashes, waterproof mascara is a must to hold the curls. My lashes are long but skimpy and Voluminous waterproof make these lashes look awesome. While I do appreciate highend department store mascaras like Lancome, I really don't want to pay $30 for a tube of mascara. Voluminous gives lots of dark colour with volume and always holds the curls. Only thing is for the first few uses, you have to let the mascara dry out a bit before applying or it will be too wet and make the curl not last. Also, do not over apply or it will be clumpy. I've been using this mascara for well over 5 years and return to it all the time. -
