1. Maybelline The Rocket Volum' Express Mascara- ($5.94, drugstores)- This is one of my all-time favorite mascaras. I've purchased 5 or 6+ tubes of this. I love that it adds a lot of volume and a little bit of length. The only ting that I don't like about this mascara is that it is a pain to get off with just regular makeup wipes (in my opinion). However, if you use something like the Neutrogena eye makeup remover, this stuff comes off so easily. It's definitely something that I would repurchase in the future.

2. Rimmel Stay Matte Primer- ($6.99, drugstores)- This primer is one of the only primers that I have used that I actually feel like does something. During the winter time, this primer will keep me matte all day long in combination with the Rimmel Stay Matte Powder. However, as it has begun to warm up a little bit, my face has been a little bit more oily. I find that the combination of Rimmel Stay Matte products will keep me matte until about late afternoon. (I apply my makeup at either 6 or 7 in the morning.) The consistency of this product is a little thick. In fact, I was actually FaceTiming while I was doing my makeup one day and told the person that I was talking to that it almost felt as if I was putting Elmer's Glue on my face. I actually love that it's thick since my skin tends to be on the drier side most of the time. The tackiness of the primer also helps my foundation to cling to it so that I don't have problems with makeup transferring either. I have already repurchased this product. (Note: This product was finished after my project 20 pan update was filmed.)

3. Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara- ($26, marcjacobsbeauty.com/ Sephora)- To be honest, I wasn't really a big fan of this when I first started using this mascara. This mascara had a dry formula when I first opened it. That was a big turnoff for me because I love mascaras with a wet formula. However, after I continued to keep using this product, I stopped focusing on that con and realized that it actually gives incredible volume. It literally gives more volume than any mascara that I have ever used. The brush on this mascara kinda tapers in the middle. As far as repurchasing goes, I would love to have this in my collection again but I'm not too fond of the price point. (Note: This product was finished after my project 20 pan update was filmed. / Disclaimer: This product was sent to me by Influenster but that does not affect my personal opinions.)

4. NYX Above & Beyond Full Coverage Concealer- ($5, nyxcosmetics.com/ Ulta)- This concealer was alright. It did have a pretty good amount of coverage behind it. However, the shade range was not ideal. NYX did not have a shade in this line that actually matched my skin tone. Also, the lasting power on this was not that good for me. At the end of the day, I could see the spots on my face that I was initially trying to cover in the first place. I was so glad to see this go, and I definitely will not repurchase this.
