Cons

Review:
I really have never thought about using a mineral powder concealer to be honest. But after trying it I wish I tried it a lot time ago. If you need it to correct something such as a bruise or very dark circles it may not do the job, but it does work for other things. Such as minor blemishes that will not be corrected by using foundation alone, under eye circles that are not deep blue and skin pigmentations that are splotchy. Ok what I really like about this concealer is that it doesn’t settle in lines. So if you use it under your eye it will not crease in fine lines or wrinkles. This is very good news for a lot of us. If over used it does tend to look a little powdery on the face but that is quickly fixed by passing a brush over it without any product on the brush. Overall I think this product is definantly going to stick around in my kit. It gives a nice finish and you can pop your mineral foundation on right over top with no blending problems. I have been trying a lot of coastal scents products as of late because they are really starting to offer some great products at really great prices. The website is listed below so you can take a look at their products.

Review:
I have several colors of this set. I really like that I have a lot to choose from because I don’t always use them alone I often put them over top of a lip color to add shine and soften/enhance colors as needed. I would really like a red lip gloss from this company as the only one I can really find right now is from MAC and Coastal Scents is far more cost efficient. When you open the lid (the part that connects to the tube) is sharp and can hurt your fingers if you are not careful. Knowing this I am careful with it and have found it isn’t the only lip gloss line that this happens with. Overall it is a great product at a great price. I am pleased once again.

Review:
If you are familiar with M.A.C. pro palettes this works the very same way. Coastal Scents has even given you a guide so that if you have favorite M.A.C. colors you can get them through Coastal Scents. They don’t have all of them yet but I am sure they will add more as time goes on. The shadows are perfectly comparable to M.A.C. shadows and have amazing blendability. The color is rich and smooth and really shows you that you don’t have to spend a fortune to get a great product. I have several of these shadows and plan on purchasing my shadows from this company when ever possible. As for the palette itself, it out does the M.A.C. palette in a few ways. Most noticeably the size. It is a bit smaller M.A.C. holding 15 Coastal Scents holding 12 but that is not a big deal because the size is so much smaller. This part right here really makes me happy. The inside of the palette holds the shadows in place with not only a magnate that covers the entire bottom of the palette (M.A.C. puts magnates on each shadow) but also holds them in place with a soft neoprene padding. Now this is important because on my M.A.C. palettes I have put my own padding in on top of the shadows to protect them from damage if the palette was to be dropped or carried around in my kit. With this palette I do not need to add my own padding Coastal Scents has done it for me! Also the name of the color is printed on the bottom of the Hot Pot. That too is something that no one else does and is very helpful. As you can see I am very fond of this product line and recommend it to everyone.
