Back when I was a freshman in high school (1997) I got a Hard Candy shadow palette at Nordstroms, it had 4 colors and cost $35 back then.  The colors were amazing, still to this day I have been looking for colors that would be dupes for it.  I loved it!

I’ll be checking back to this thread for answers as well.  Good question.

Back then I bought one of their nail polishes, a lovely baby blue colour. I don’t have it any more, though.

I’ve not tried much since it became a Walmart-exclusive brand — just a nail polish and one of the mascaras. The nail polish is as good as it was when it was a Sephora brand, IMO (as in, great formula, wears well). The mascara (Ginormous Lash Volumizing Mascara in Black) wasn’t bad, either, but I’m not a massive fan of the wand. It’s too small for my liking.

I know the Glamouflauge concealer is well-liked by some (I think I’ve read it may be a dupe for Kat Von D’s Tattoo Concealer). Fair-skin gals may want to consider the bronzers; you may find one that works for you (particularly the one in Hula Hula). I was in Walmart not too long ago and went by the HC section; I’d forgotten how light-coloured the bronzers were.

I think the brand in general is definitely worth a look.

I’m sad that I never got a chance to use them :/. Wow shelly I didn’t know UD owned them [used to], the more you know. @.@

It isn’t always 100% reliable. I’m pretty confident that UD used to own Hard Candy. (HC is now owned by the same company that releases the Accessorize brand in the UK.)
