Benefit "Ulta"mate Sexy Six

Bad Gal Lash Mascara
Not super impressed with this one.  I don't find it to be very volumizing or lengthening.  It makes the lashes look very natural, but blackened.

Hoola Bronzer
This is a great bronzer but I think it would better suit more medium skin tones.  I find it to be too orangey on my skin, but the formula is wonderful.  It's greatly pigmented and it blends perfectly.

That Gal Brightening Face Primer
This primer does just as good of a job as any other primers I have tried.  I don't find it to be particularly brightening though.

Stay Don't Stray Eye Primer
This primer has a great consistency.  It's sticky enough for shadows to cling to and show up super bright, but of course it doesn't crease.

High Beam
Beautfiul highlight! Love!

Posie Tint
Perfect spring-y bubble pink color! I love it!

Overall, I probably wouldn't recommend this set because I only liked half of the products in there.

BareMinerals MarvelousMoxie Lip Gloss Set - Show Me the Shimmer

These glosses are great.

They are minty feeling on the lips, which I love. 

They have excellent color pay off.

The shimmer in them isn't OTT, you can't feel it in the gloss, so it isn't gritty.

They last quite awhile actually, about 3+ hours or so.

They are not overly sticky, but they don't just slide off your lips either.

One downside is that I don't enjoy reapplying them.  I would rather take the entire leftover gloss off, then apply the gloss again than build on top as a touch up.  Whenever I try to build on top, it becomes too sticky and almost a chunky texture; something no one wants on their lips! lol. 

Overall they are wonderful though, even though they can seem a little pricey.  I would recommend checking out these little sets because they have a few (I saw 3) and I'm sure there will be more with the holidays on the way!
