More product reviews...1st impressions

B"H
Hi beautiful people!
How is everyone? I know its kinda been a while since i posted...i have been a test taking machine for the past week...remember im a PA school student, so ya welcome to my life! So now I finally have a moment to breathe and well, asy hello to u guys! Now if u havent caught on, anyone who takes time to either write a blog or put vids on fb on makeup is usually pretty addicted and obsessed with it. I'd say my degree of obsession is actually pretty low compared to some of these other ppl. I mean i dont have drawers and drawers of maeup..cant afford it anyway, and like i dont wear makeup everyday. But anyhoo, whoe tangent...so anyhoo i have bought some more makeup products since we last chatted and id like to tell u what my 1st impressions r...so here we go:
1) Covergirl Classic color blush in 540 rose silk.Ok so here's the dealio, its actually pretty good. The blush actually comes off rhe compact and i like the color alot. its basically that peachy pink color that has been the rave for a while as universally flattering. The posterchild for this shade is like NARS orgasm color..ya horrible name right? like i know we're in the 21st century but like common, some class right? wuetver, anyhoo that shade is great. I got it alot cheaper with this product. The thing u gotta be careful abt though is that alot comes off on the brush so make sure to blow of shake some off ur brush before applying so u dont end up lookin like a clown. Then of course if u want more, add a bit more. Its called building, adding pigment in small amounts so you have more control. Omg funny story though, when i went to try and figure out how to close the compact (notice the blush is showing in the package) i couldnt figure out how to do it for the life of me since the top is like attached on a hinge...oh it was cra cra. finally my roomate figured it out..so thats a small drawback, dont feel bad if ur stumped like me. hee hee

2) e.l.f Professional 9 piece Brush collection: I actually had one of the brushes in this set before i got all 9 and i use is it all the time. its the Defining eye brush, its amazing!! So far i have only used that brush and tried the blusher/bronzer brush. Its pretty good but its smaller and has less hair/bristles than i thought it would. However, this set is great becaue if ur on a budget like me, e.l.f if u didnt already know is basically one of the least expensive brands out there wiht still some quality products. Mots of their stuff is like a 1.00 a piece. I paid a "whopping" 15 bucks for 9 brushes!! that like less than how much u could pay for one brush at sephora or mac!

3) Neutrogena Advanced Acne Therapy System: So like a normal girl, i got acne after highschool....lol ya so my skin has been breaking out alot lately i think from stress from school... and other produvcts on their own werent helping, so i resorted to a 3 step system. and so far i like it. It has a face polishing cleanser, an acne lotion, and a moisturing, calming lotion with spf 15. Ladies, WEAR SUNSCREEN EVERYDAY!!!!!! It is so imporatnt. First of all if u wanna just be vein, ur going to look worse than a wrinkled raison by the time ur 35 if u never where sunscreen. 2ndly, yes coming from the PA student, skin cancer is no joke! its really dangerous and can happen to anyone, especially fair skinned beauties, and its juts not worth it! You can DIE from skin cancer. ok enough of that...that is whats in the kit. its 20 bucks, i think the same as proactive, but its right in ur pharmacy like right aid and cvs. I have only used it twice so far and i think my skin is getting better already! the only thing is is that the face wash stings a bit when u firts use it. buts its really no that bad. oh...and dont forget to put suncreen on ur EARS AND BACK OF NECK. those places r forgotten alot.

4) Maybelline Lash Stilleto ultimate length mascara waterproof: It works pretty well. my lashes don't clump and they do look longer. It is not a good voluminiser though if u want more voluminous lashes. Don't know how waterproof it really is because by the end of the day i still get some racoon eye action going on...uuhhg! if anyone has some great tips for me on how to prevent that lemme know asap! :)
