SO EVEYONE ON YOUTUBE ALWAYS HAS SOMETHINK TO SAY ABOUT MAC'S MINIRALIZED SKIN FINISH POWDER....YEAH YEAH YEAH....EVERONE KNOWS ABOUT MAC AND THAT IF YOU WANT TO GET HIGH END MAKEUP PRODUCTS....MAC SHOULD BE THE FIRST ONE ON YOUR LIST.....BUT ONE DAY I WALKED INTO THE BEAUTY SECTIOM AT MY LOCAL MEIJERS (only located in michigan) AND RAN ACROSS THESE BAD BOYS!!!!!!!!! AT THE MOMENT I JUST LEFT THEM THERE...I DIDN'T WANT TO BUY THEM BECAUSE I WASN'T SO SURE ABOUT THEM.
LATER ON IN THAT MONTH THE WHOLE REVLON MAKEUP LINE WAS ON SALE AND I PICKED UP THE LIQUID FOUNDATION IN THE COLOR I THOUGHT WOULD FIT MY SKINTONE BEST; 400-CARMEL NORMAL/DRY SKIN FOR AROUND SIX BUCKS (originally TWELVE dollars before tax...) PLUS IT DOESN'T HAVE A HARSH SMELL TO IT AND IT IS THE PERFECT MATCH! THEN ABOUT A WEEK LATER THEY WERE ON SALE AGAIN (buy onr get one free) AND I DECIDED TO PICK UP TWO OF THE MINERAL FINISHING POWDERS, BOTH IN SUNTAN MATTE. I FREAKING LOVE THESE PRODUCTS AND I HAVE BEEN USING THEM FOR ABOUT TWO MONTHS....THESE ARE THE BEST THINGS YET!!!!!THERE'S NO TURNING TO ANY OTHER PRODUCT NOW, I'M STICKING TO THESE ONES !!!!!!!I PROMISE YOU ON THAT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH...AND YES I HAVE TRIED MAC'S LIQUID FOUNDATION AND THE MINERALIZED SHIN FINISHING POWDER.....THEY BROKE MY SKIN OUT....UUUUGGGGHHHH!!!!!SO PISSED OFF ABOUT THAT. WHAT A WASTED OF MONEY....THAT'S WHAT MADE ME SO SCEPTICAL ABOU T PERCHASING THESE WONDERFUL REVLON COLORSTAY PRODUCTS....BUT I AM SO FREAKING GLAD I DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHEEEEEW THE LIQUID FOUNDATION AND BOTH OF THE MINERALIZED SKIN FINISH POWDERS DIDNT EVEN COME UP TO HALF OF WHAT I PAY FOR THE STUPID MAC...AINT THAT SOMETHING!?!?!?!?!...WELL I GUESS WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY IS....."YOU DONT HAVE TO SPEND BIG BUCKS TO GET THE LOOK"

LA COLORS MAKE UP
SO I WENT TO A LOCAL BEAUTY SUPPLY AND I PICKED UP ELEVEN LA COLORS PALETTES FOR ONLY $1.99 EACH....FINALLY. NO I'VE BEEN SEEING THESE LITTLE THINGIES AT MANY BEAUTY SUPPLY STORES AND NEVER PAYED THEN ANY MIND BECAUSE I DIDN'T THINK THAT THEY WOULD GIVE OFF ANY COLOR.
BUT I WAS SOOOO WRONG......THESE PALETTES ARE VERY VIBRANT AND PIGMENTED. WHAAAAAAAT!!!!!!!!! YEAH THAT'S WHAT I SAID. I AM VERY HAPPY I PICKED THEM UP AND I PLAN ON DOING MANY LOOKS WITH THEM. I LOVE THESE LITTLE THINGS BECAUSE-
- VERY SMALL AND PORTABLE....UNLIKE MY BH COSMETICS120 PALETTE (love it though)
- HAS A GREAT MIX OF COLORS TO CHOOSE FROM IN EACH PALETTE TO COMPLETE A GREAT LOOK
- VERY AFFORDABLE

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT BECAUSE FOR ONE, IT IS VERY INEXPENSIVE!!!LOL MY COINS ARE TIGHT...I SIMPLY CAN'T AFFORD THE EXPENSIVE BRANDS. BUT LET ME GET STRAIGHT TO THE POINT HERE...IT DEEP CLEANS, DISSOLVES DIRT, OIL, AND MAKEUP. IT ALSO REFRESHES MY SKIN WITH IT'S TINGLING SENSATION AS IT CONDITIONS MY SKIN WITHOUT OVER DRYING IT. LEAVING MY FACE FEELING REFRESHES AND ENERGIZED WHICH GIVES MY SKIN A VIBRANT GLOW!
THIS PRODUCT LEAVES BEHIND NO RESIDUE AND I USE IT TWICE A DAY....WHEN I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND JUST BEFORE I GO TO BED. (JUST LIKE BRUSHING MY TEETH) LOL
{EXFOLIATING}

THIS PRODUCT EXFOLIATES MY SKIN LEAVING IT FELLING BRAND SPANKING NEW!!!!! IT HAS 100% NATURAL EXFOLIATES AND EXTRACTS, IT'S OIL FREE, NON-IRRITATING, IT SMELLS WONDERFUL AND CALMING. I USE THIS PRODUCT THREE TO FOUR TIMES A WEEK AND I AM LOVING IT!!!!!!!!!
{MOISTURIZING}
