E.L.F. Warm Bronzer Review + Pictures

This is E.L.F's Warm Bronzer. I got this awhile ago so I don't know if it's still the same. They might have improved it or something. Anyways there's 4 different colors & I'd use a brush & swirl it all together and apply it to the hollows of my cheeks. It works good. I barely use it though because I use my elfs clarifying powder. =) There's a mirror so you can put it your makeup case and when you want a touch up just pull it out. It's from their studio line & only $3.

E.L.F's Clarifying Pressed Powder Review + Pictures


So I got it in Tone 3 and it's like 2-3 shades darker than my skin tone. The reason for this is because the picture on their website looks real light, like my skin tone but it came out to be way too dark. I didn't use it for awhile. Then I bought their Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder in sun kissed & it was shimmery & I hate shimmery bronzers I want them to be matte! The Bronzing Powder, if you swiped your brush over it even with a light hand a lot of product kind of gets dusted & tracks to the border of the case. Anyways I really wanted to use a bronzer and seen the clarifying powder and used it as my bronzer. It worked perfectly well! I would definitely buy another pressed powder to use as my bronzer. It's matte so your the one who can choose to buy it. =) Thank you.

N.Y.C Smooth Skin Loose Face Powder "translucent" Review _ Pictures


So this is my finishing powder as of right now. It is translucent. It lightens/brightens my face a little but I like it. It mattifies my face too. So I like it. Again I'm sorry I can't remember the price. I'm sure it's cheap, can be found at Wal-mart also! I recommend this. =)

The Color Workshop Shimmer Powder first impression Review + Picture & Swatch


I got this for Christmas & haven't really found a way to use it since I'm not really into the whole shimmer look.
After swatching it I think I'd use the light colors as a highlighter.
It did seem a little chalky when I swatched it.
I'm not sure where you can get this. Like I mentioned this was a gift. I think you can get it at K-mart?.
I don't think they have an official website but you can check on e-bay & amazon.
I also found a couple other websites that sell this line of cosmetics.
Drugstore.com
&
I recommend getting their eyeshadows I'm in love with their neutral brown one.
Which sucks though about this line is their products has NO NAMES! Lipsticks, eyeshadows, eyeliners, lipliners... etc, yes all of them have no names so I can't really recommend which "palettes", lipsticks or any products because you really won't know what I'm talking about.
Well if you want to check those websites out & type in The Color Workshop & their products should come up! =)

Clean & Clear advantage ance control moisturizer Review + Pictures

This product did NOT help me. I still broke out. Which sucks but its alright. It smells good though. I guess my face did feel soft but I still felt a little oily in my T-zone. Another thing I like is you can twist the top to lock it. Plus one pump, pumps out a little bit of product but its still good enough to cover your whole face! =) Again you can find this at wal-mart.

CoverGirl Clean Foundation "Classic Tan" Review + Picture


So this is CoverGirl's Clean Foundation w/ oil control! I got it in classic tan. Now I don't really know why I'm keeping this since I don't even use it anymore. BUT, I thought I should review it. My opinion I don't like it. It has good coverage, or what I can remeber, but it transfers. After I eat I'd wipe my mouth and it would completely wipe it off around my mouth area which would force me to reapply. Also I live in somewhere HOT practically all year round and I tend to sweat obviously. When I sweat on the top of my forehead it makes these little bubbles or spots as most people would understand. It's crazy & of course that would ALSO force me to reapply. My honest opinion I DON'T recommend this. But if you would like to try it for yourself of course you have that right & can find it at any drugstore. I'm pretty sure it's under the $10 range.

Sally Hansen "Blue It" Nail Polish Reivew + Picture


I'm sorry my nails look a little crappy. I painted my nails last week & just took this picture today!
Anyways I love blue. Blue is my favorite colors. Anyways, I don't wear this color often but when I do I go about two weeks using it. That or until my nail grows longer & the color starts to fade at the tips. Which ever comes first. Its a real bold & cute blue. It's shiny & shimmery. Mines took about an hour or so to fully dry. Where I can push my finger into it & it wont crease into shaping my fingerprints. ha ha. So yeah you should try it out. It's called Blue It
** & I'm sorry I don't remember the price since I bought this months ago but definitely check it out at Wal-mart -- where I bought mines from! Yes I bought this.
