Tarte Smooth Operator Amazonian Clay Illuminating Serum

Lack of Sleep? Buy This!

As a mom to little ones lack of sleep is a daily occurrence at our house. I received a free sample from Sephora; and applied this one day when I was feeling a bit glum. Well, turn that frown upside down it did. It works well to brighten up the face. I applied it over my mineral foundation. A tiny bit goes a long way. I'll be buying a full size after my sample is gone. I've been using it (sparingly) for the past month and a half and I still have quite a bit left. I highly recommend this product -- especially if you want to fake awake :P

Prescriptives Beyond Long Maximum Length Mascara

Best Mascara

This is my favorite mascara right now-- until I can find the HG mascara-- especially one that is natural. Anyone have any suggestions? I love this brush. Like another reviewer said, it looks huge, but it gets into the corners well and makes application a breeze.

Physicians Formula Organic Wear 100% Natural Origin Mascara

Looks AMAZING AT First

I really wanted to love this product. It has good ingredients and is fairly priced, which I look for in a product. It goes on great; and gave my lashes a boost of volume. They looked longer and thicker, really nice. However, as they day worn on I ended up the raccoon eyes. Total bummer! Plus, the packaging is funky. It makes application uncomfortable. I get the message they are trying to convey, it's obvious, but it should not come at the expense of uncomfortable application-- especially for the eye area. Bummed. Wanted to love for lack of nasty ingredients usually associated with mascara, but just cant get past the raccoon eyes.

Orglamix Pure + Natural Loose Color Concentrate

12 Shades + Counting

I love Orglamix eyeshadow. I own several shades from mild neutrals like sandalwood, cashmere and sweet pea which I wear everyday to wild absinthe which is a bright acid green and geranium, the brightest hot pink I;ve ever seen. I think they are the best out there- and for a fair price. My guess is the people that are reviewing them unfairly actually do not own any of these wonderful eyeshadows. They are super pigmented; and apply and wear just as well- if not better- than eyeshadows that cost 2-3 times as much like MAC or BM. Plus, they offer a 100% Guarantee. If you order something and do not LOVE it, you can return it for your money back. What other brand does that? I urge everyone to try it themselves, and make up your own mind. Orglamix eyeshadows really are amazing!
