I've had these products for quite some time now but I wanted to see if I really like the product on a continued use, instead of just liking them for just a short period of time.
Urban Decay All Nighter Long Lasting Makeup Spray $30
I actually bought the travel sized version of this first because I didn't want to spend more on something I could have possibly disliked....but I fell in love with this spray and bought the full sized one before I ran out of the travel sized one!
I really love travel sized products because it's easy to take with you and you can just pop it in your makeup bag.
After I finish applying all my makeup for the day, I set it with the Urban Decay setting spray and GIRL, it is good. GOOD. It makes me feel fresh and I just love the way makeup looks right after you spray it on. I use this every single day--can't go a day without it.
This also comes in the De-Slick Oil Control Spray and Chill Makeup Spray (which supposedly is supposed to chill the makeup to make it look fresh throughout the whole day....getting a little tempted to purchase that as well)

Dior Addict It-Lash Mascara $26
I saw this product when it was an VIB exclusive and holy crap, I wanted it as soon as I laid my eyes on it. But I kept telling myself to test it out and see if it's that great of a mascara before purchasing it (which is a given but...LOOK AT THE PACKAGING.)
I was looking for it in every Sephora near me but unfortunately, they didn't have it in stock yet and apparently was only available online (for VIB beauty insiders at that time) but a girl that worked there told me it might be available at Bloomingdales--which ~hallelujah~ was RIGHT next to the Sephora I was at.
So, naturally, I ran out and went to Bloomingdales and bought this pretty baby.
Packaging = gorgeous
Formula= outstanding
Victoria= one happy camper
Seriously guys, I think this is one of the best mascaras I've ever had in my life. And for the pricing, I think it's quite reasonable and fairly cheap? considering it IS Dior.
Rating: 9/10
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer $29
Ok, so most of you guys might know about this product, since every beauty blogger out there raves about it. So I decided to give it a try because...why not, right? :-)
The concealer I was using before was the Givenchy Mister Light Pen and I think I might be the only one who think it's not that great. I didn't think it was worth the hype or the money.
BUT thank goodness I found the NARS creamy concealer because it is freaking amazing.
Great coverage, very blendable and I finally found a shade that matches my complexion. (I have this concealer in Chantilly--"true ivory shade for the fairest of complexions")
This is definitely repurchase worthy and it might actually be one of my holy grail items.

Elizabeth and James Nirvana White $22
To be honest, the packaging caught my eye. I bought the rollerball version of this because I didn't know if I would like it THAT much for me to buy the full size and I also have other perfumes I'm currently using often.
The scent smells really...feminine. Like, it reminds me of a really chic person drinking coffee outside a cafe and smoking a cigarette (ok, the scent doesn't smell like cigarettes but you know what I mean! LOL) In other words, it smells feminine, yet quite sophisticated and mature. It isn't your average "girly" scent--not too sweet, not too musky...which I love.
I always carry this in my purse and ugh...I just love the packaging. I'll just leave it at that.

These all come in slim, sleek and travel friendly packaging.
D&G 3 L'IMPERATRICE $69
This is my favorite out of my favorites!!!!!! Smells fucking amazing. It has hints of fruitiness and floral but it smells so clean and crisp. It reminds me of the perfect summer day. Sunny, breezy and you're just chillin by the poolside. Ahh yes.
The scent isn't overwhelming at ALL. Ugh oh my goodness. So good. I was just smelling all different types of perfumes and most of the time, I hate all the ones I smell (I'm really picky with fragrances) but holy crap, I fell in love with this one after the first whiff.
The only down side is that it doesn't last very long--which is predictable, considering it being more of a toilette rather than perfume.
BUT, despite that, I freaking love it. I could go on and on about how much I love this fragrance but I'll stop here.
If you haven't smelled this before, go to a Sephora or something and smell it NOW.
Rating: 11/10 because I just love it so much.
