I was looking for a new mascara because my Covergirl Lash Exact Mascara is crap and I hate it. It clumps like there's no tomorrow. My friend recommended me Neutrogena's Weightless Volume Mascara so I decided to try it out. I also bought Revlon's Colorstay Eyeliner in Brown. I can't wait to try them out!

I also headed over to Walgreens to buy Sea Breeze toner. I've heard many good things about their original formula, but they discontinued that, so I decided to try their new sensitive-skin formula. I've used it twice, and its worked pretty well... it has taken a lot of the dirt off my face that my face wash couldn't =).

E.L.F professional Shine Eraser
My skin is super oily, and I hate it so much, so I am always looking out for blotting sheets and products made for my skin type. At Target, I saw these blotting sheets and if you didn't already know, all E.L.F products are only $1 so I decided to try it out. Each pack has 50 sheets. So... its like 2 cents per sheet!
Review:
Product: 4/5
Quality: 3/5
Overall: 3/5
Advertised As:
-absorbs oil and shine
-mattifies skin
-pore minimizer
-Micro-sebum absorbers instantly departs excess oil on contact
-Woven texture eradicates shine and keeps skin matte for hours.
-Green Tea Extract helps re-texturize skin, masking facial imperfections.
How to Use:
-Take out a sheet from the packaging
-Blot your T-Zone area (forehead, nose, and chin)
-Turn the sheet around and blot the rest of your face.
My Thoughts:
When you first look at these sheets, they don't look like something you'd want to put on your skin. It looks like they were made out of recycled items... but actually, it's because they have green tea extract inside the sheets. The packaging is good and small, which makes it easy to carry around. After you have blotted your face, it still feels like there's quite a bit of oil left... so these don't soak up as much as I would like... maybe its because you turn the sheet around, which I don't think works well. Maybe if your skin was a little less oily then these would be good to try out. Its only $1 anyways!

Olay Complete Face Moisturizer
So I actually haven't used many different moisturizers for my face, but out of all the ones I've used this one is my favorite. It doesn't clog your pores and it is oil free. They make different types of this moisturizer for different skin types. I use the one for normal skin. It really does the job!! It is a bit expensive though, around $7-$12 a bottle. It comes in a jar or a bottle. I prefer the bottle because it feels lighter to me whereas the bottle is a bit thicker.
Bottle
Texture 5/5: It is smooth and creamy, not really thick or anything. I hate thick face lotions... they feel weird to me. This is just right! Sometimes I do use Pond's face cream but not often.
Smell 4/5: Doesn't really smell like anything, which is good... you don't want a weird smelling face!!
Overall 5/5: RECOMMENDED!!!!!! I have used this product for almost 4 years now. It is amazing. If my skin does get too dry, it's because I didn't put lotion on, or after I go swimming. If I did go swimming then I use a heavier thicker face lotion.
