The Viva Glam lipsticks have all the benefits and quality of regular MAC lipsticks, and every cent of the purchase price goes to fund AIDS research. It doesn't get better than that!

I was never able to master liquid liner, but MAC's Fluidline gel eyeliners are amazing. Perfect consistency and amazing pigmentation give me a perfect line, every time, without having to add a second coat. It lasts about 12 hours on my upper lashline, and 3-4 on my upper waterline. I've fallen asleep with this on and it's still there in the morning. Perfect for a cat eye, smudgy smoky lines, and anything in between.

MAC Powder Blushes offer a huge color selection for every skin tone. They're very finely milled, and come with or without shimmer, for those that prefer a matte cheek. They're pigmented and beautiful, but easily blended and hard to overdo. You get a good amount of great quality product for the price.

I am an NW20, with huge, dark purple circles under my eyes. I was previously using MAC Studio Fix Concealer in NC20 (the bit of yellow helps hide the purple), but it wasn't working for me. I switched to this, and I'm much happier. It is very pigmented, lasts a very long time, and matches my skin tone perfectly. I prep with Smashbox Photo Op primer, apply this concealer, and top with a bit of MUFE HD powder to set. It lasts all day, with no creasing, smudging, or migrating. It also hides a good 80% of my under-eye circles. I would give it a ten if it hid them a little better. :/ The pump dispenser keeps everything sanitary, but it dispenses 3x the product I need for one use, and I haven't been able to figure out how to get less out. It's a great product in spite of that, though.

MAC Lipglasses offer a huge variety of shades, multi-dimensional gloss and shimmer, and great wear time for a gloss. The light vanilla scent, simple packaging, and effective applicator are great, too. It's very sticky, yes, but it also stays in place longer than most thinner glosses.

My Mia initially came with two Sensitive brush heads. I used those until they wore out, and I liked them ok. I have normal/oily skin, and the Sensitive brushes were good, but not mind-blowing. When I needed new brush heads, I switched to Normal, and I like those much better. Wonderful exfoliation, and deep cleaning.

I bought this instead of the regular Clarisonic, because it's a bit less expensive. I love it! I use it once a day, to really deep-clean my skin, and I always use it with Philosophy's Purity Made Simple cleanser. My skin is brighter, smoother, healthier, and my pores are much clearer. I replace the brush head every 3-5 months, I use the Normal brush head with this, though there's a Sensitive version available, too. I only have to charge my Mia every two weeks or so, and it only takes a few hours to fully charge. I highly recommend this product.

I've been using this with the matching shampoo, and I'm very happy with it. This conditioner leaves my hair moisturized and shiny, without weighing it down, and it smells amazing! If I could change anything, I'd make it a tiny bit richer, but for the price, I couldn't possibly expect more from this product. Highly recommended.

I ran out of my Pantene Colorcare shampoo and conditioner, so on a whim I picked this up instead. This shampoo lathers very well, you don't need a ton of product. It leaves my hair feeling clean, but not stripped, smelling good, and very soft. I couldn't possibly ask for more from a drugstore shampoo, let alone one this cheap!

These are inexpensive, deeply pigmented, smooth, come in a fantastic variety of shades, and are very blendable. It's not possible to get a better shadow for the price.
