Heir Atelier eye primer

One Tester Said:Wow, I really liked it!

It’s pretty thick for a CC cream (but it does have a whopping 50 SPF!!)

and it covered all my redness.

Covergirl makeup

It really feels like almost a foundation to me.

It did leave me a little greasy/shiny rather than ~glowy~ though.

But it didn’t irritate my skin and felt pretty moisturizing.

Maybelline eyeliner

Took off a few points because it came off throughout the day, especially after using my phone.

It is also such a great value!

I usually just cheat and use concealer as eye primer but this stuff was actually amazing.

Also I have to say the packaging is lovely!

Almost everyone said it bumped up the volume on their lashes, lifting and separating without any clumps involved.

One Tester Said:Wow, this is my favorite.

The brush is huge and tapered in the middle, and the product did not clump at all.

My lashes looked full and separated!

One Tester Said:I had this in navy blue and loved the color so much.

It was really easy to apply and play around with.
