With this you don't need to mess around with a pot of liquid eye color and a brush when you could just buy one of these? This was the first liquid liner I bough, and I have to say, I don't think I'll be swayed to use anything else. I get so many compliments on how good my eyes. Its perfect and easy to use, and last a long time. I'll deduct a star because the packaging can get messy.

For thirty bucks in canada, i could buy a lot of drugstore lipglosses, but I don't want drugstore lipgloss. I prefer lipstick anyway, so i really just need one good tube to change it up every once in a while, and Striptease is a great nude, so for those obsessed with the nude lip look like me, buy this. I do enjoy that this offers a sheen and shine, rather than lost of teenage glitter. Nothing from Nars ever disappoints, I'd just have to sell my firstborn to afford it.

On sale for six bucks, though I'd try it to see how it compares to my Nars, Sephora and MAC lipsticks. I found the color selection to be a bit too bright and childish, but if you look carefully you can find some good, sophisticated shades, like Iced Cappucino and Silver Plum. It's got great staying power and it's a nice creamy formula that does not make lips look dry. I like this. I think the only thing that the luxury brands have on this is their range of shades and more creative names...

Yes it burns a bit, yes it can get messy, and yes its not perfect. But rinsing it between uses makes it cleaner to use and using on higher grade eyeshadows makes it work the way it should, of course its not going to work if you're just diluting crappy drugstore eyeshadow...I like it, I don't love it. But it deserves some recognition.

FABULOUS. Copacabana makes the best highlighter ever! So easy to use, looks beautiful, not overdone and i love using it right on the top line of my lip, it really defines my mouth in a subtle way. Great to highlight cheekbones too. A bit too dry for lips, and a bit too big for eyes, I just use it on my face and shoulders and even for that its so worth the splurge!

I bought this and returned it, its pretty good but not for that price! I really wanted to love this, but alas..it went back to sephora...I tried its cousin Icinic as well as Blackout, and found those to be better versions of this cult favourite.

I don't know if this is as great as some readers say. I guess I'm just not a believer in concealer overall, no matter what you do, that bump on your face is still going to be prominent, I wanted more for the price I guess, as I always do. The bottle is well designed though, and the shade range is great. I like that it covers well, but for me, its a bit too cakey, and it really doesn't heal or "perfect" as well as it claims.

The brush is the best part about this mascara. Its ingenious! The shape is perfect. Let's you really get in and reach every lash. I don't have very long lashes at all and this does wonders. I love how long, defined, voluminous and defined they are! The price is also more reasonable than some other luxury brands.

I love this for the coverage it provides, the hydration and the texture. However, really pale girls beware! The light shade is still too dark for me, to the point where I have a visible difference on my jawline...not cool. I'll keep it till the summer, when I have a tan. I love the SPF, and for the price, can't be beat! Just wish they had a lighter color or more variety, RIght now I'm trying Dior Hydractive TM, more shade selections, a higher SPF and great moisturizing capabilities. I do really like this though.

For the money, I guess I expected more. What bothered me the most was the irritating tingle my skin felt every time I applied this to my face, it was like a really uncomfortable burning feeling. And I have a pretty strong suspicion that it broke me out...but I have acne-prone skin, so it could have been from anything. Still, I don't think it lives up to its name, or the promise of improving complexion. I do like that it comes in a pump, much more convenient than some other brands. I also found that the palest color they offer (i'm always the palest in foundations) was too yellow for me...Overall, its okay, not sure its worth the money, when something from the drugstore could do the same job...
