Maybelline XL Volume Lip Plumper

Packaging - 4 (very good)
Plumping Power - 4 (very good)
Feeling - 3 (average)
Texture - 5 (excellent)
Color - 4 (very good)
Overall:



This lip plumper is amazing. It does make your lips feel a little numb and fuzzy (as usual with lip plumpers) but other than that it's great. It goes on smooth, it comes in a few different colors to give your lips a new tone a little hint of a shade (like a lip gloss), it isn't sticky, and it lasts.

POP Beauty Plump Pout Lip Gloss

Packaging - 3 (average)
Variety - 3 (average)
Texture - 4 (very good)
Color - 5 (excellent)
Long Lasting - 4 (very good)
Overall:



I am not a lip gloss fan. It's sticky, it gets all over the place, it rubs off easily, I have always felt like lip gloss belongs on preteens, not women.  But I will be a return customer for this lip gloss. I tried this lip gloss in the only color that the store had in stock which was fuschia, and it was just so bright hot pink, I knew I wouldn't love it. But I was wrong. It has a beautiful sheen to it. The lip gloss gives your lips a lightening boost and tone without making them look "painted" and matte. It was a little bit sticky (which i am not a fan of) but not nearly as sticky as most lip glosses are. It lasted for hours after I put it on and I loved it! I did a little research and found that it was actually the fuschia POP Beauty Plump Put Lip Gloss that was used on the ABC Family TV show The Lying Game for the main characters Emma and Sutton (played by Alexandra Chando) so that is kind of fun!

Pacifica Body Butter

 Packaging - 4 (very good)
Scent - 5 (excellent)
Texture - 5 (excellent)
Moisturizing - 4 (very good)
Long Lasting - 4 (very good)
Overall:



I tried the Hawaiian Ruby Guava Body Butter (in the picture above) and loved it! The scent was definitely present but not overpowering and it was fruity and floral without smelling like it was for a sixth grader. The packaging for this particular scent was a little girly for me personally, but their other scents are packaged much more sophisticatedly (I know that;s not a real word, just work with me here). It had a smooth texture that was thick and not wet and slimy, which I appreciated. You can feel that it actually hydrates at a deeper level as it sits on your skin. I found myself reapplying every 3-4 hours but I also live in a desert. Overall this a good product that I will definitely buy again.

Color Oops Hair Dye Remover

Packaging - 3 (average)
Scent - 0 (awful)
Damage - 0 (awful)
Removes Color - 2 (not very good)
Overall:


Is it possible to give this product negative stars? I hate hair color removers. They damage your hair horribly and they don't removes most of you hair color. I suggest NEVER ever using them! If you want more information on what they do to your hair and here is a link to a blog post all about them.

Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Day Lotion

Packaging - 3 (average)
Scent - 4 (very good)
Hydration Stamina - 3 (average)
Consistency - 3 (average)
Overall:



This product has had rave reviews on the internet. I have seen several advertisements about it lately, so I thought I should try it. I even heard that it was included in Birch Boxes for January which is amazing because they generally only distribute high end products. After trying it I think it is way to hyped up. It smelled very pleasant and light, and not overwhelming which I really enjoyed. But it doesn't last longer than any other lotions or have any healing properties or anything else like that. It is kind of pricey and I don't think it was worth the money. I am giving it a 3.5 because I like lotion. It works as good as any other lotion, and it smells good. It is a great lotion. But it is not worth the hype or the money it costs.

Revlon 3D Photo Ready Mascara




Packaging - 3 (average)
Formula - 5 (excellent)
Clump Factor - 4 (very good)
Lengthening - 4 (very good)
Separation - 5 (excellent)
Flaking - 5 (excellent)
Overall Rating:




I love this mascara! It was recommended to me by a makeup artist I met in cosmetology school, and I have been using it on myself and all of my clients ever since. It doesn't clump until you are almost out, it lengthens, and it gives serious separation and definition to the eye lashes! Plus you can pick it up at a drugstore! so it is convenient and budget friendly!
