Alright, here is what I received.
First off this brush is adorable. It's pink with a rose gold ferrel. Come on, it doesn't get more adorable. Sadly, that is the end of the pros of this brush. It is a duo fiber brush, however, it just lacks density. I feel like you can't really do anything with this brush. You can use it for maybe a highlight or a dusting of powder but it doesn't really do much more than that. It's crazy soft which is a plus. I just don't reach for this. It's fine for light powder applications. I wouldn't really try any liquids on this because it isn't dense enough to hold products. It kinda overpowers the brush really.
I'm a little torn about this nail polish. When I first received one of the Formula X polishes I was really impressed. They are very pigmented and I loved that, however, this one just like the other two I have sampled. It just doesn't stay on my nails very long. It chips away really quickly. Even if i use a top coat this stuff just won't hang on that long. This is a very unique color. In the bottle there is a gold look to this. Once applied it looked like a blue shade on my nails. I've also seen swatches where it looks like a green shade as well. It is different than anything I've ever had. I'd recommend trying a small size before purchasing a full size. You may love the formula and you might not.
I was pleasantly surprised about this oil. I love a good hair oil and boy is this one fantastic. The first time I tried this out my co-worker said my hair looked amazing that day. She said it always looks great, but that day it looked amazing. I told her that what a coincidence I had tried a new oil in my hair. So, it makes my hair look fabulous and I really might purchase a full size. This is very affordable at $14. It really tames my frizz and adds a ton of shine. Overall my hair looked so healthy.
I'm just going to get right to it. This is a huge disappointment. I was so excited for this product and it is absolutely terrible. I tried every way possible to get this to work on my eyes. It doesn't work. Once applied it goes downhill. It is patchy and it doesn't blend at all. You also can't add a shadow on top or try to blend the edges with anything either. It causes the product to flake right off the eyelid. It is mind-blowing how bad this is. I just don't get it. I definitely don't recommend this to anyone. What a disaster this was.
I really like this mascara. I don't get too thrilled with mascara that comes packaged like this. It is difficult to open and close. Also, it's difficult to wipe excess product off the wand if you want to do that. However, it is just a sample size and the full size tube isn't like this. This makes my lashes look fantastic with a fanned out look. My lashes naturally have a good curl and this makes them look even better. This didn't smudge or anything on me, thank God. I have a hard time with non-waterproof mascara smudging. Overall, this is a great mascara. It gives a nice full flared lash look and the black is very dark. I would recommend trying this one out.
