I recently got two new moisturizers and the e.l.f eyelid primer! I bought them at Target.
The first moisturizer i bought was the Garnier Nutritioniste Moisture Rescue Refreshing Gel-Creme. I believe it was around 7 dollars. It comes in a glass tub, and contains 1.7 oz or 50 g of product. It's a green gel! I didn't think this product would be moisturizing at first because it is a gel. But, it pleasantly surprised me! It is very very moisturizing and leaves my skin feeling hecka soft and refreshed. It feels like nothing is on when you are wearing this moisturizer! I was so very surprised about the way it trapped in moisture and they way it felt on my skin. When I put it on, I couldn't stop feeling my face! It was very very very soft. It dries not quite matte but not ultra shiny either. I would say this is a great moisturizer for all skin types! Only use a little dab for your whole face-a little bit goes a long way! Overall I give this product and A+.
The second moisturizer i bought was the Up and Up brand (from target) facial lotion healthy skin. It says on the bottle that it compares to Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion. It has 2.5 fluid oz in the bottle or 73.9 mL. It is supposed to "soften and smoothe rough, uneven skin, and reduce the appearance of fine lines." The first thing i noticed was the smell. It smells like a weird sour sunscreen. If the smell doesn't bother you, then this is a pretty good moisturizer. I use it in the morning before i put my makeup on. It goes on well, you don't need a lot. It is very shiny once it dries, so you probably couldn't use it alone without some sort of mattifying powder. It cost about 6 dollars. I really don't have a lot to say about it. I'm pretty neutral about it, i think it would be a hit and miss with different people. I rate it a C+.
The last product I got was the e.l.f Eyelid Primer. It was $1 at Target-an amazing price. I only have had a small experience with e.l.f. but so far it has been alright. The primer is "sheer", with a doe foot applicator. It is sort of greasy when you put it on, but it does blend to be pretty sheer. So far, it has held my shadows on throughout the day, which is great. But, it does not make my shadows more vibrant or anything. So if you want your shadows to be bolder, it really doesn't do that. But for keeping shadows on, it does a great job for one dollar! I rate this a B.

Hope these help!
