Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

Makeup Haul Reviews

January 6, 2011

I thought I’d come back and review the products that I bought last weekend :-).

1. Purity Made Simple cleanser – so glad to be using this again – absolutely love it and my face feels really clean again.

2. Maybelline Fit me Foundation 120 – This is really a shade too dark and I’m going to get the 115 to try it out. My friend Lisa suggested mixing the two together and that’s also a great possibility – thanks Lisa! Otherwise it looks great and wears fairly well – it has a dewy look which is great for my skin that is getting drier each year. The only thing I don’t like about it is the fragrance – wish they could leave that out.

3. Maybelline Fit Me Powder 120 – I like this powder! It is not cakey looking at all and the color I think will even work with the lighter shade of foundation as it’s almost translucent. It’s been a long time since I’ve worn powder and this one is good!

4. Maybelline Fit Me Concealer 10 – I’m thinking this will go back – it seems really drying for my skin and I probably need something a little creamier. Yesterday I just put the foundation on under my eyes and it worked fine.

5. Maybelline Fit Me Blush in Light Pink – This is also a keeper – nice light shade of pink that looks very natural.

6. Cover Girl Professional Mascara in Brown – Also keeping, but I’ve used it for years and love it anyway. BTW – This is the one with the brush that is NOT curved in case someone wanted to try it out.

7. Maybelline Eye Shadow Quad in Chic Naturals – Love this too!! The colors are nice and neutra just the way I like them. I did notice that this set is called Mocha Motion – no wonder I like it. Coffee.

8. Essie Nail Color in Mademoiselle – This is so light and natural looking on my nails and it wears very well too! Last night I put another coat on and it only really needed it at the tips. I’m hoping it might help my nails look better over time as well. The winter does a number on my hands every year. Bleh.

So, those are my reviews…I’m enjoying using everything and it’s making me feel a little happier about starting my days too. It’s fun to be a girl!

ROFL! I think you are right though - today I found spray foundation by Classified Cosmetics at Wal-Mart. Now this is the same company that has the spray foundation Carmindy used on What Not To Wear back in the day. Whoo hoo!! You should definitely run out and find some cool nail polish too :-).
