This palate is amazing. All the colours are rose-toned so they are more on soft and subtle side. Which is nice for work, school and everyday life. But if you want a more of a dramatic look, you just get more of the product on your brush.
The colours are really good and all you have to do it is wipe the brush on the colour once and you get plenty of the product. The product last a long time without primer, but I would recommend that you use primer with these colours because it will help intensify the colours and make them last around 12-20 hours. Luckily, the palate comes with 4 packets of their primer, each with enough product in them to last a week, so in reality you have a month worth of primer to use up.
I may be the only one who likes this, but I love the packaging. The box, container the eyeshadows comes in is so catchy. It catches the eye when you look at it, and it is rose tones as well.
I give this product a 9/10.

CoverGirl Lipsticks
Hey, So I have no idea what these lipsticks are called because I have had them for so long. But here is a picture of them.
Ok, So this will be a quick review because I actually really like this product, Like the colour payout is amazing. They last for a really long time.The only thing that they do is they feather and bleed as the day goes on but that is just something minor and can be easily fixed by a kleenex, tissue, napkin or even a makeup wipe.
I give this product a 8.5/10. The lipsticks range between 5-10 dollars depending on where you go. Also I do not know if they still make these lipsticks. But if they do I would highly recommend you add one to your makeup bag.
The colours that I have are: Darling 395, and Feline 385.
Also tell me if you would like me to start adding pictures of the makeup product that I am reviewing.

Hard Candy- Glamoflauge Heavy Duty Concealer
Hey,
Sorry I've been gone for awhile but I am back to review the Hard Candy Glamoflauge Heavy Duty Concealer.
This concealer I find is a hit or miss all depending on what you are trying to cover up and how you choose to apply it. I have found that this concealer works the best when you are trying to cover up acne, pimples, freckles, and scars. When you use it to cover up the dark circles under eyes, it seems to find its way into the fine lines. It also makes it look like you over powdered underneath your eyes, which is not a good look to be carrying.
When you are trying to apply it, it works best if you use your finger or a sponge because the formula is kinda runny, and if you use a brush and physically brush onto your skin it leaves streaks. But if you use a brush and you use a patting motion, it creates this flawless look.
This product is good buy and I give it a 7/10. This price is pretty inexpensive. I think i got mine from walmart for around about $8.00. Which is pretty good, also I thought I should mention that they do not test their product on animals. When I find products like those, I am quite happy with the company.

Garnier BB Cream
Hey,
I have had this product for awhile because I was trying to figure out if it was just the way I was putting it on, or it was the BB cream. I came to the conclusion that it is the BB cream.
So this BB cream is more like a foundation, it is really thick, actually it is thicker than foundation. So when you put it on it makes you feel like you are wearing three pounds of makeup, when you are not. It also leaves your skin extremely dry, and that is not a nice feeling to have on your face. It is much like the Maybelline Dream liquid mousse foundation, because it goes into your pores, and fine lines making them more noticeable, and in the long run it will make the fine lines turn into full on wrinkles.
In this case I find that the squeeze bottle it comes in is too big, because foundation/BB cream have an expiry date, which is like 6 months to a year, and the expiry date comes way before you have even got halfway to the bottle. Using expired cosmetic products on your face is not good, it irritates the skin, which could cause your skin great discomfort.
This product I find is not a good buy. I give this product a .5/10
If you have tried this product, I would love to hear your opinion about it. So leave me a comment below.

Sephora Eyeshadows
Hey,
I have about five of these eyeshadows, and I really LOVE them. The shades that I have are: sunset at the beach, wedding day, sunday brunch, and I have two of the lucky penny.
I really like the colour pay out of these eyeshadows. They are long-lasting, even if you do not use a eyeshadow primer. Which is good, because then you can save a few bucks! But anyways they are absolutely fabulous. The shimmer eyeshadows have a really nice not to noticeable metallic finish to them which is good if you are going for more of a natural look, but if you are going for a more dramatic look, than you can just apply the eyeshadows wet and get more of a metallic look.
If there were any of the colours that I was disappointed in, it was the lucky penny, I say that because it has such a nice colour in the pan that you get, but when you go to apply the eyeshadow to you lid, you get more of the shimmer than you do of the colour, I wish that it was the other way round. More colour and less shimmer. So for that reason I am giving these eyeshadows an 8.5/10

Sephora Pro Stippling Brush #44
Today, I am going to do a review on the Sephora Pro Stippling Brush #44.
I really love this brush, it is really soft, and very gentle on the skin. Unlike some of the other brushes I have owned in my lifetime, this one is definitely one that will always be in my makeup bag. It is really good for when you are putting foundation, or powder on the larger areas of your face like your forehead. It is also good to do the contour of your cheek bones, which may sound weird, but the beauty I find of stippling brushes is that they can do more than one aspect of your makeup. It is a 4 in 1 makeup brush.
The dexterity of the brush is amazing, when you clean the brush, and it is drying I find that it really maintains the shape. But it does take a longer time to dry, than a typical makeup brushes, because of the how many bristles it has and how they are so closely packed together.
The cost of the brush is sorta expensive though, it is costs on average 30-40 dollars canadian, for the brush and the container it comes with. That is expensive when you think that you can get one for about 3 dollars from wal-mart. Though I can definitely say it would be better to spend the money on this brush, because it is better quality, and won't start to lose the bristles like the one from wal-mart does. Now I am not putting down the one from wal-mart, it is still a good buy if you do not want to spend the money on the Sephora one.
I give this product a 8/10.
Here is a picture of the brush.

Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer
Hey, today I am going review the Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer.
This concealer is really good at covering up dark circles, but I would not reccomend you put this on to cover up blemishes, because it has this shimmer to it, so it will make your blemish stand more out, than hide it.
You also do not need to put foundation on with this concealer, I find that it works as a foundation as well. If you want excellent results, I would recommend that you use the rest of the Wake Me Up products because they all have the same formula and were meant for you to use them together.
I know that everyone has their own way to apply their products to their face, but I find that the best ways to apply this concealer to your face are a: Beauty Blender, and a concealer brush. When you use your finger with this product I find that more of the product stays on your finger, than on your face. But if you like to apply this product with your finger than go ahead. Each product works differently with different skin types, so your finger might work better than my finger does. This product I would give a 6.5/10.
