There is a lot of high expectations with this product, some people compare this to the Smashbox primer, and I can see the similarities, but in reality they perform very differently from each other.
The Maybelline baby skin instant pore eraser comes in .67fl oz and it retails for $5.99-6.99.
It is a clear silicone consistency,here is where people may compare it to the high end brand. This one has a strong scent between makeup and nail polish, I'm not really fond of the smell, and feels heavy on the skin, I have to blend really good or it just feels like it sits right on top of my skin.And about the pores, well i will say that personally does not blur or erase them, especially the ones on my nose.

Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser
Rimmer Stay Matte, liquid mousse foundation.
I will be reviewing this new foundation by Rimmel, the name is Stay Matte, and it is a liquid mousse foundation, 1 fl oz and I paid $5.79,it comes in 6 different shades, at least that is what my cvs had in stock.
The claims on the back read:
"Feather-light,liquid mousse,blends flawlessly for natural-looking,
all day shine control.Silky smooth formula leaves a perfectly matte, baby-soft finish.Lightweight texture won't feel heavy or greasy."

Those are some big claims, which I disagree with some.
First let's talk about the good, I love the packaging is not bulky and the squeeze bottle is convenient and mess free.
I personally think it has a medium to full coverage and it is buildable.
I only apply the size of a pea on the back of my hand and blend with a brush, the way it blends is very nice and it goes on so smooth, it definitely has a lightweight feeling, and yes it looks flawless.

Now for the bad; stays matte for about 1-2hrs after that my face look shiny and it felt greasy and I had to blot and apply my Rimmel stay matte powder, so the claim of "all day shine control" fail, but honestly I really like the results after the powder, the foundation looked like when it was first applied or better, the only problem with this is that if you are going to wear this foundation for more than 5hrs that means that more powder will have to be applied and it can get cakey. I do have oily skin so I probably won't be using this in the summer. But for those with dry skin this probably will be something to try.

Puffs
Hello, is me again, reviewing another product that I receive for free through influenster .
First of all lets talk about packaging, is super cute if you are a gal, sorry boys hopefully they have nice designs for men, the package size is just perfect to throw in the purse, a backpack, a coat packet or pants packet.
Now unto the product; they are strong they hold really good thru the most runny nose( my 4yr.old), and one tissue is sufficient for a really snotty nose, and the lotion is a plus, I like that it will not leave those little or big nose dry and sore, because what is worst than a cold is having a sore nose right?!
They are a must have for this winter season.

Do you need some volume....
This new Suave professionals line it is really good it compares to the salon brands.
The Suave professionals Volumizing root boost spray contains 6 Fl. Oz and retails for $2.88 I had this bottle for 8 months now and I must say I'm very happy with this product, it does what promise ( give volume to the hair) and for the price really you cant go wrong; like I said I have this product for 8 months and I use it twice a week, so you get a lot of use for less the $3.
The product has a strong smell, but it does not linger on you hair, is really easy to use.
the bottle says that you can reapply throughout the day, personally I don't find it necessary.
If you have not try it don't hesitate, I thinks is a must have product specially for this winter season, when must ladies like me suffer from not enough body and volume due to the dry air around this time.
*This are my honest opinions and I paid with my own money for this product.

Jolly Vox Box
I received these products complimentary from #Influenster for testing purposes.
So lets started; in this #jollyvoxbox I receive a box of skinny cow candy, NYC HD color trio eye shadows, Ducklings mini rolls, puffs Ultra soft and strong to go tissue pack and a Rimmel London Show off lip lacquer.
Now lets mini review each item, first the Rimmel London lacquer, this product is really good, is not sticky or tacky feeling, last for a very long time on your lips, the only thing I dont like is that I wish influenster will do more personal match profile, and I'm saying this because the color that I got is Aurora, it is a bright coral red color and I don't wear colors on my lips that bright, so if you are interested in this product, but also you don't care for color that are right in your face and scream BANG! skipped this Aurora color, but formula wise again is nice and nice feeling on the lips.
For the Puffs tissues, they are great quality and so soft on the skin, and of course they do the job.
Duck tape ducklings is the same quality as the regular duck tape rolls, it can compare to any washi tape but a lot better and strong, great for crafts.
NYC HD color trio eye shadow, I have to be honest I did not expected such a nice formula for eye shadows in this brand, but I was surprise but how nice creamy consistency they have and how well they blend, definitely will be trying other color trios from this line.
skinny cow candy, this chocolates filled with peanut butter are good, specially because the are not loaded with calories.

NYC New York Color eye shadow trio.
Hi my name is Claudia, and I'm here to review this HD Color Trio from NYCNewYorkColor compliments of @Influenster the color that I received is Long Beach Sands and it retails for $2.99 a very reasonable price, specially for their consistency, they feel creamy and not powdery at all, the pigmentations is good and they blend really nice. My recommendation will be to use an eye primer just to help a little bit more with the staying power and maybe to make the color show more.
Over all you get a good product for such and affordable price.
