I’ve had the pleasure to experience a variety of the very affordable Hard Candy cosmetics (available exclusively at Walmart) for review purposes over the past 15 months or so. Most recently I have tried some of the products pictured in this post. I especially like the Glam ofLauge pump foundation ($7) I told you about in this post last year and will likely be buying more soon as I’m almost out. I don’t wear makeup everyday and during the summer was able to go without foundation quite often.

The bright colorful lip glosses infused with Argan and Citrus oils in the above picture and the dark grey lipstick is from the Hard Candy Fierce Effects line. Those are some dramatic colors – but, there are other colors available, too! What I tried was to use the dark lipstick and then use a colorful gloss over it. It works, believe me! You could get really artistic with that line. These retail for $5.

The beautiful eye shadow in that same picture is from Hard Candy’s Top Ten Satin. The case opens up and has a mirror inside the lid. I received one of the two trays offered. They retail for $6.

Eye Essentials Collection

The items pictured above and in the two images below are from two different sets: the eye color and brushes come from the Eye Essentials Collection and the four lip glosses are from the Nude and Smokey Look Kit. Both retail for $4.88 each. See what I mean by “affordable”?! Hard Candy cosmetics are very affordable and I can tell you from personal use that I have had good experiences with the items I’ve tried.

Highlight & Contour Face Duo Stick

The Hard Candy Highlight & Contour Face Duo Stick is a great companion for your makeup bag. I’ve used in on my eyelids and to enhance cheek bones. It has a creamy texture. It has a light end and a dark end.
