A few top notch products!


I recently ran out of my usual eyeshadow primer (Mary Kay, which is awesome), and decided that I'd splurge and see what the deal is with the Urban Decay primer potion since it now comes in useful packaging. While I was at it, I thought I'd try Urban Decay's All Nighter setting spray and see if it helped from mid-day T-zone oiliness. These are definitely expensive products (at least on my budget), but if you buy them from beauty.com, you'll get free shipping over $25, plus I got a coupon code from their catalog for $15 off of $40. That's an awesome deal! Plus 5% from that purchase to go towards a future purchase, plus get 6% of that purchase towards ebates bucks when you click from their website. So I got both of these products for a grand total of $35.83, just a little bit more than the All Nighter Spray by itself. Awesome! I'm such a bargain hunter it's ridiculous. ;) My thoughts in a nutshell: both do exactly what they say they will- no creasing, no greasing! However, if you're on a budget, my Mary Kay eyeshadow primer works just as well, trust me! ;)

I also exchanged my Hoola Benefit recent purchase (it was too muddy on me) and got Dandelion instead. I was worried it would be too sheer and not show up, but if I pack it on just the apples of my cheeks it leaves me with THE best pink glow to my face. I absolutely love it and use it almost daily now. Try it!
