in my opinion, urban decay as the most innovative and creative packaging designs and products out of all the cosmetics lines out there. that's the first thing that drew me to this product, and when i first saw it i thought it was hilarious. not only did i like the packaging, but i was also impressed with the acutal product inside. at first, i was scared of this shade because i usually wear natural pinky colors on my lips and dont go for bright colors. i have the shade in Timothy, and it is the most gorgeous color on my lips, yet still is wearable with every look for day or night. it is described as a creamy coral with pink glow, and it has the perfect amount of shimmer to it and doesnt look glittery. not only does it have great color pay-off, but it smells AMAZING too(like creme brulee), isn't sticky, and is moisturizing. my boyfriend actually noticed and he kept complimenting me on my lips! and i dont go anywhere without it now. i'm extremely happy with this product and recommend it to anyone and everyone.

i tried the urban decay lipstick in midnight cowboy, and i'll just say that it's not worth your money. just from the appearance, it looks like a gorgeous beige color with subtle shimmer in it. but it looks like nothing but glitter on your lips. it is completely sheer (no color to it at all), and when you rub your lips together, you can literally feel the glitter rubbing your your lips and isn't a smooth feeling. it's not moisturizing either. i'm very disappointed in this shade, but maybe the other colors are better....?

i was actually really impressed when i tried the urban decay multi-benefit mascara. when i first saw the brush, i felt pretty sketchy about it since i had tried the covergirl lash blast before and i hated the plastic bristles. but this mascara brush was fantastic. the bristles literally gripped my eyelashes and made my short asian lashes look long and defined after 2 coats. it looked extremely natural and kept them looking separated, not clumpy. it did not clump at all and held up throughout the whole day without flaking. i can't say it that it really strengthens your eyelashes, but overall, it's a fantastic mascara. if you're willing to invest $22 in a mascara, i say go for it!

what i like about this concealer is that you only need an extremely tiny amount to be able to cover up your under-eye circles. it has a very blendable texture to it and the color in medium beige works perfectly for my lightly tanned asian skintone. it covers my dark circles better than anything i have tried so far (such as the benefit erase paste), but what i dont like about it is that it creases like crazy even after setting it with a light dust of powder. it's extremely pricey for the little amount you get and it does not completely cover up my dark circles and puffiness as i expected it to. it is not completely opaque and the coverage only lasts for half the day for me and my dark cicles will start to peep out. i would recommend this product if you don't have problems with dark circles and if you're looking to conceal other skin imperfections. but for anyone who is looking for a great under eye concealer and has dark pigmentation or fine lines under their eyes, i wouldn't highly recommend it.

i was honestly very disappointed and unimpressed with this product. i saw that it had high ratings, so i gave it a try. it is not long-wearing or good at controlling oily skin like it claimed (i got oily within 2 hrs). at first i was impressed with the packaging but it actually ended up getting all over my makeup bag. i tried so hard to make this stuff work and applied it in a number of different ways and even went back to the mall a few times but still couldn't find the right shade. it doesn't even give a very good coverage, and when you do put more on it makes your skin look cakey and super powdery. the price for it is super expensive and found out that it contains talc and bismuth oxychloride = skin irritant. plus, what really disappointed me was that the lady at the counter told me how wonderful and fantastic this was and persuaded me to buy it, but when i finally decided to return it, she told me that she honestly didn't like the powder either for the same reasons and said she doesn't blame me for returning it. if you're looking for a mineral foundation, i would recommend physician's formula mineral loose powder instead. i costs like 5 times cheaper (be sure to catch the sales and coupons), is talc-free, way less ingredients, and give you an amazing, flawless coverage.

oh my goodness this stuff give you the most glorious beachy waves and is fantastic at accentuating people with wavy hair like mine! i'm pretty horrible at styling hair and am pretty low-maintenance with hair, but this stuff just revolutionized my whole hair routine! it defines curls and makes them look bouncy and creates soft waves. it's in such a cute packaging too, it looks and dispenses exactly like real whipped cream and has a beautiful scent to it. it doesn't leave your hair sticky, crunchy, or stiff, but gives you the most natural-looking waves. i do have to say though that it makes you hair pretty volumized and sorta lion-like, but it's still looks adorable. what i do to apply it is i rub and scrunch a palm-sized amount in my hair when it is damp, and voila i'm ready to go anywhere whether to school or going out on date!

i have naturally wavy Asian hair, but this stuff makes it look AMAZING. i don't really know how to describe it. it accentuates my natural waves gorgeously...i LOVE IT. even my friends noticed and told me they were jealous and my boyfriend kept complimenting me. it doesn't make you hair all stiff or wet-looking the way mousse does either. it's not sticky, and it stays in place all day long, no matter what the weather is outside. what i do is i rub it through my hair when it is damp and then scrunch it. when it dries, voila! i've never been so impressed with a hair styling product before. it's the quickest, easiest way to accentuate people with my hair type. eventhough it's pricey, especially for the measly amount you get (only 45 ml), i will definetly repurchase!

i got a sample of this stuff and was doubtful of this product. so i gave it to my mom to try it out, since i have acne-prone skin and she doesn't. she broke out all over her chin after using this, and she never has any zits, and i feel soooo horrible!!! so i had to write this review right away to warn you guys that this product doesn't work for everybody. i would recommend the estee lauder advanced night repair instead because that one doesnt make you break out and works wonders compared to this one.

i love how this eye cream is EXTREMELY moisturizing. i love the feel of it on my skin and just love the thickness of it. the only problem is that i haven't seen it help the wrinkles under my eyes in any way at all, so i felt that it didn't live up to its claim on that. i have been using this product for the past 2 or 3 months and have not seen it diminish/help my dark circles, puffiness, or wrinkles in any way. other than that, its a pretty decent eye cream and pretty reasonalbe investment, considering a jar will last you forever and ever. it surpasses all the eye creams i have tried so far.

i have get figgy and flatter me, and i am actually very impressed! it applies very smoothly and easily, and is very pigmented. they have the most gorgeous range of colors and look better than any other cream eyeshadow i've ever tried. it has the perfect amount of shimmer in it and doesnt look glittery (like Tarte's lock n roll eyeshadows). it really is fool proof and extremely easy to apply (just with a finger!). the only thing is that it's really pricey for the amount you get, and you have to be careful to put the lid on tight because once it dries out, you can't use it anymore. also, i put this product to the ultimate test when i went to the gym, and sadly, it did crease a little. so if you are planning to wear this for the whole entire day, be sure to put a primer underneath. but if you're out for only half a day, it would be fine on its own. other than that, i love this product and recommend it to everyone, especially beginners.
