Eye Shadow Palettes ($3.99 each): Natural and Neutral
I got both of these palettes at a Ross Dress for Less. I had no idea they were limited edition until I looked them up for blogging purposes. The colors in these two palettes are absolutely beautiful. I was a little disappointed when I went to use them though. Neither one have great color pay off. They look pretty, but that's about it. They look cakey when you apply them also, which is a big negative for obvious reasons. The only time I would probably ever use either of these palettes again is just for a highlight color. Natural is on top and Neutral is on bottom.
Grade: D
Wet Gloss Lash and Brow Clear Mascara ($1.00)
I bought this product mainly for the brow side. The brow gel was just like any other brow gel you would get. It is a little on the sticky side, but it's supposed to hold you eyebrow hair in place. It does tend to flake if you scratch at it. Overall, it's a great product for the money.

Grade: A
Eyelid Primer ($1.00, 0.17 fl oz.)
Most eyeshadow primers are applied, then they kind of just disappear. I don't really know if this worked or not. My eyeshadows don't typically crease. I think that it's worth a try if you're looking for something cheap.
Grade: C
Eyeliner and Shadow Stick ($3.00): Green/Moss and Purple/Plum
Holy moly! These things are awesome! I got both of mine from the Dollar Tree and I wish I would have both all of the ones they had. I wore the Purple/Plum stick for a week just by itself. I have green eyes so the purple/plum complimented them well. The green/moss on the other just looked odd, but I'm sure it would look great with brown eyes. They are really creamy and can be easily blended so the edges don't look harsh. I absolutely love them and I'm going to be getting the other colors whenever I get a chance! (The picture from the website makes the colors look extremely bright. I just put that picture so you would have an idea of what the packaging was like.)
Grade: A+++
Under Eye Concealer and Highlighter ($3.00): Light/Glow
This concealer has somewhere between light and medium coverage. I don't exactly have dark circles that I need to cover, I have big dark veins around my eyes though. This covers them enough for me. It's not cakey at all either, which I love! I also don't use it on blemishes, so I don't know how well it would cover those. I've found that the highlighter end doesn't really do anything. I could be using it wrong or it could just be invisible, I don't know! (The concealer is lighter than my hand in this picture, but I did this on purpose. I like having my under eye area a little brighter than my skin tone. These would obviously look different once blended also, so don't be freaked out by how white the highlighter is.)
Grade: A+
Liquid Liner ($1.00): Black
This was actually the first liquid liner that I've ever used. It doesn't smudge and it looks great on. It has a felt tip too, so that's a major plus. As you can see in the picture, the top comes off and you dip it in the pot to get the product. Overall, this is a great liner and I honestly don't have anything bad to say about it. http://www.eyeslipsface.com/elf/eyes/eyeliner/liquid_eyeliner_
Grade: A+
Contouring Blush and Bronzer Powder ($3.00): Blushed/Bronzed
Blush ($3.00): Candid Coral
I'm combining these two because they're basically the same thing. Both are amazing. The blushes and the bronzer fade throughout the day, but they still look good when you first put them on. I would say that they probably last for a good 4 or 5 hours. They might stay on better if you use a foundation though. (I don't use foundation) (The blush/bronzer pictured isn't the one I currently have, they don't make the one I have. I just put this picture for sake of showing you the packaging.)
