EOTD & Sally Hansen Fast Fix E/S Base Review

Wow, I haven't really done eotd lately huh? For this picture I used physicians formula e/s palette. The color shows more in person really. When I look at the picture in the camera, I see colors but when I uploaded it, the colors don't seem to show. Hmmm....


Eye closed: I really like the outcome in person though! Almost neutral but not sheer. Have some shimmer to it :)


This is what I used for highlight color. I believe there are more colors but I picked "natural eyelight." I think it's a good highlight color and will go with almost any e/s!


The palette that I used: I love this palette and I'm planning to go get more of them! The colors I used are in green circles!


I'm also trying out new foundation from Maybelline. It was on sales :P This is the "superstay silky foundation." I'm not doing a review on this yet b/c I've only used it once! I think when I take picures, my face looks whiter but in person, I feel like it's darker than my neck! @_@


I'm pretty sure this is not the right color. It doesn't match my skin just yet but close. Excuse the hair please, I've been having a bad hair day! :(


*****************************************

And now, the review on Sally Hansen Fast Fix E/S Base! I believe there's one color and that's nude.

Price: $7.99 (decent)
Package: 4 out of 5
Product: 4 out of 5 (for drugstore brand)


I've been using this for a weeks and here's my verdict! For a drugstore brand, this is a pretty darn good e/s base! I think the price is decent and I like how the packaging is stable. It's not in a tube form and I think it'll be great to have in a makeup bag. Sometimes when I have tube products, it get squeezed and products came out and messed up my makeup bag!


In terms of applying the base, it goes on smoothly and silky feeling. Keep in mind that I DO NOT have oily eyelids. I don't think it's a dupe to UDPP or TFSI but it gets the job done. I think this product is great as long as you don't have to sweat a lot! Meaning, this won't be a good e/s base if you're going clubbing but if you're going out to the mall or doing anything that isn't sport, this is a good base. For me, this e/s base works and I will purchase it again.


So that's my review on this product! Questions? Ask!

Oh how I love 3 days weekend but I have some projects to do :P Sigh...Talk to you ladies soon!

xoxo,
Katelyn

thank you thank you thank you for doing this review. I've been really curious about it. because everybody and their mama's mama keeps comparing bases to UDPP or 2face. I don't want it compared, I just want to know if its good. thank you thank you thank you. and it's GOOD! now to actually get it when its in stock. lol.
