BEST USES Comments: I thought the color was going to be too dark, as I like the natural look, but it turned out to be a really nice shimmery brown that is very versatile. It can be used for a day or night look. Well down NYX! |

Comments: I bought this product after reading many other reviews and decided to give it a try mainly based on the price. I am used to using MAC or Mary Kay foundations and I was looking for a cheaper option that would give me the same results. I have found it very comparable in coverage. The formula is a little thick and hard to squeeze out of the tube. I usually apply foundation with a makeup sponge and it is sometimes hard to get the makeup to stick to the sponge prior to getting it on my face. After I get it on my face it is very easy to smooth on and it covers well with only one layer. It is not heavy, it is actually very light, lighter than other foundations I've used in the past. It covers well and evens out the redness on my cheeks (I am very fair in complexion). It is definitely a good foundation for daily use and a great value over other brands. I will continue to use this foundation over other brands. |

Comments: I have dark brown hair, almost black, but I do not like wearing black eyeliner. I like to match my hair. The moonlight whatever color (brown) is awesome. I am having to learn how to apply it - I tightline, and the formula is so soft upon application that my eyelashes scrape it all off the pencil rather quickly. Which means I'm constantly sharpening it. Which makes me leery that I'm wasting it. Anyway. Once you have it how you like it, it sets and lasts all day (and night!). Love this stuff. I can't wait to pick up the purple color. |

Comments: This is my new favorite foundation. I have sensitive/oily skin and Revlon ColorStay works wonders! I find that it goes on best when applied with a damp makeup sponge. I purchased an airless pump online for this, because it's easy to waste product when you have to tip it over for each use. You can also mix this with a cheaper, low coverage foundation if you find that it's too thick for you. |

Comments: After trying out many foundations and tinted moisturizers, I've found my best match with this foundation (I use classic ivory). Best features: I've never used a foundation that has matched my skin tone this well! Along with that, it also looks so much better on my acne, and covers it pretty well too! Problems (For SOME people): I wouldn't say it's full coverage, but I personally don't really feel the need for full coverage (I think it makes me look a little bit too plastic-perfect I guess). But if you want really full coverage, look elsewhere. My Complaint: The one and only issue I have with it is the packaging. I hate when foundations don't have pumps and can't be squeezed out of a tube. So I end up being impatient and sticking my finger in the glass bottle (bad habit) but it will not come out unless you stick your finger or brush or whatever into it to get some out. The product itself is very good though. I have noticed it helping to reduce my acne which is so stubborn, but it's actually going away with the help of the Neutrogena skin system (can't remember its name) but in other words, Neutrogena skin products are great for acne. |

Comments: I have combination/oily skin and spent years trying to find the right foundation. They all looked cakey and fake until bare minerals. It doesn't look like I have anything on and covers beautifully. My only complaint is that it can be messy to apply. I get lots of "minerals" all over my clothes, but they wipe off fine and don't stain. |

Comments: About the only thing I don't like about this is the packaging. It's awkward getting the product out. The good thing is the bottle closes tightly and won't open in your bag. I got the Nude color and it's amazing. It's the perfect thing to wear when you just want something pretty and don't want to wear a lot of makeup. It also goes well with other colors. It's not sparkly, so you won't feel like a disco ball. I recommend a base or primer so it really sticks and lasts a long time. |

Comments: I have only used this product for a couples days now but so far im loving it! It doesnt clog my pores like some other "long lasting full coverage" liquids. I love the consistancy and is a great creamy consistancy. This makes it cover all my flaws and blend nice. Love the matte finish and that its not cakey. However do not like the brush thats included. doesnt spead enough and could be a tad longer lasting but i fix that with a setting powder |

Comments: Okay, so I have olive skin, but it is probably the lightest olive skin in the history of human existence, so finding makeup to match my skin has always been pretty challenging. I recently purchased this product in Mellow Yellow and it is a perfect match! I found that this concealer is very runny (not thick, which is good and bad). The reason why this is good is because it does not look cakey or settle into the fine lines under my eyes (I am 29), and has a very moisturized look. The reason why this is bad is because I find that I must wait for it to dry before I pat it into place. I recommend you twist the tube until a decent amount comes out and paint the concealer under both of your eyes...I wait about one minute and let it dry just a little. Then, using my middle fingers, I simultaneously pat it into place until it blends completely into my skin--patting it slightly downward, and blending it slightly onto my nose, and down onto the tops of my cheeks closest to my nose--and just below the under eye ring. I feel that this concealer is far too thin to use as a blemish concealer (unless you let it dry and set for like 5 mins before blending it) but it is an excellent under eye concealer if you apply a generous amount, let it dry for 1-2 mins...THEN pat it into place. I also sometimes add a second layer and it works perfectly...this concealer's smooth, silky, thin texture does not EVER clump or look thick! After I pat it into place, I set it with a clear translucent powder. Then I apply my Powder foundation, avoiding the eye area (powder foundations applied over under eye concealer can make your under eyes look cakey and the slight wetness of the concealer will suck up the color of the powder foundation, so it is ALWAYS best to set with a clear translucent powder) Although the Mellow Yellow is a perfect match for my skin, my only complaint may be that there are only 3 shades. I hope NP comes out with more shades of this because it is an excellent product! |

BEST USES Comments: I bought this kit because I was tired of spending so much time on painting my nails and having my manicure only look good for a couple of days. While painting my nails with regular polish didn't take long, getting them to dry well always took hours and then only lasted for 2-3 days. Red Carpet Manicure has really solved my problems! There is a learning curve, for sure. My first attempt looked a little bit like my niece had painted my nails. It really does matter if you put too much on, if you let it get on your fingers, etc. But each time I've done it, I'm progressively better at it. Now I'm on my fourth manicure and it looks great - today is day 14 of this manicure! I was going to change colors today, but really don't have to, so I'm going to go a couple more days on this round. It takes me about an hour to remove polish and then put on a new color, but if that hour buys me 2+ weeks of great nails, I think it is totally worth it. With regular polish that same time investment would only produce a couple of days of great nails. I can't recommend this product enough! I'm totally in love. My only complaint is that I wish there were more colors to choose from. Hopefully more will come (teal, please!). |

Comments: I just love this liner. I am not a make up expert, but I can put this liner on and it look smashing. Stays on too...even when I rub my eyes a bit. Yes, it is difficult to get off...but that is kinda the point...I don't want it coming off easily. I have slightly sensitive eyes too, and this does not bother |
