I’ve tried a lot of drugstore foundations till now. While they were good enough, they still had room for improvement. It was the lack of shade range or the unnatural finish that made me look into expensive brands. However, little did I know that this @lorealparis Infalliable foundation existed! It has become my favourite drugstore foundation from the first time I tried it.
Why is it so good and what makes this a #topratedbeauty product? It’s everything about it. The texture is a really thin liquid that is easy to spread and blend into skin. Because of the lightweight formula, it glides on skin without feeling heavy or cakey. It does not dry down immediately so I had plenty of time to blend it and let it set. Did I mention that it’s waterproof, sweat proof and transfer proof? The colour doesn’t oxidize either so it looks fresh for up to 24H. I didn’t test that claim as I don’t want makeup on my face for 24H. However, it held on and passed my water splash test!
It has buildable medium coverage which is how I want my foundations to be. The light formula is hydrating and didn’t cling onto dry patches around my nose/mouth or accentuate fine lines. It has a slight perfume scent which I enjoyed. The best part is, the finish looks very natural almost like a second skin. It’s my skin but better and glowy. I got a pretty good shade match (although not 100% accurate) as there are 30 shades to choose from.

I love the ingredients in this serum which is perfect for preventing early signs of aging. It’s formulated with probiotics which restores healthy bacteria on skin and prevents damage to skin. The serum is very viscous and thick but it’s easily absorbed. It leaves skin feeling smooth and hydrated with a healthy glow. However, the fragrance is too strong and it gives me a headache after use. I wish it came unscented for a better experience. -

I have never tried bar shampoos before hence I was very intrigued by this experience. I was always very supportive of the concept of reducing plastic waste in any way possible. These shampoo bars come in a cardboard box and the use of plastic in this product is 0% which is amazing! It’s also made with 94% plant based ingredients and free from soap, silicones and animal based ingredients. If stored properly in a dry tray, this bar can last upto 2 months!
Using this bar was such a treat because it smells SO GOOD! I was surprised because not even my bottle shampoos have such a strong and nice scent. The Oat delicacy bar especially has a very sweet, soft and dreamy scent.
I was also shocked at how easy it was to use. Simply rubbing it on wet scalp lathered the product. I was always skeptical of bar shampoos because I thought they wouldn’t lather or clean my oily scalp adequately but boy I was wrong! The lather was rich and my scalp was squeaky clean. However, it left my hair a bit too dry for my liking (conditioner fixed it) and I wish it was more moisturizing instead. Overall, I loved how my hair felt and smelled all day.

Covergirl sent me a free sample of their Weightless Water Cream from their Clean Fresh Skincare Line.
After testing out this sachet I wish I had more of this. It claims to be a moisturizer + primer which hydrates skin for up-to 72 hours and it surely delivered. I loved the clean and fresh scent of the product and the light blue colour. The texture was not anything like a typical gel moisturizer rather it felt like a hybrid between a gel and a primer. I haven’t put on makeup after this so I can’t comment on it’s efficacy as a primer but my skin did feel very smooth to the touch after application.
I love that the line is also vegan and cruelty free.

I'm familiar with the older Neutrogena cleansers but this new ultra gentle line is so unexpectedly impressive, I'm shocked. Formulated with Pro-Vitamin B5, the cleanser is very gentle on skin. It has the texture of a creamy gel which doesn't lather too much. Is it weird if I find that this cleanser smells like freshly baked bread? I love it though. The cleanser feels like a dream to work with. My skin felt clean and moisturized at the same time (which is very rare). It was not harsh or stripping, I didn't have any dry patches around my nose or chin. I loved how comfortable my skin felt using this cleanser, I can't praise this enough. If the bottle wasn't this humongous (473ml), I'd repurchase this without a second thought but this is probably going to last me a lifetime lol. I might use this as a body cleanser too for bacne. I would 10/10 recommend this for oily, acne prone, sensitive skin. -

I'm not a makeup wipe person mostly because I find wipes very wasteful and inadequate in removing makeup but none can argue about their convenience. Hence I'm so happy to see that these wipes are 100% plant based and home compostable, now I won't feel as bad using them once in a while. I love micellar water for removing makeup and these wipes did a great job. It didn't leave behind any greasy or sticky residue like most wipes. Overall, I think this is a win! -

With an nice earthy and herbal smell and a milky clay like texture this is a different cleanser from Neutrogena than the ones I've tried before. The foam lathers nicely and gently cleans skin without feeling overly stripping or drying afterwards. Infact my skin felt soft and bright due to the exfoliant 2% PHA in the formulation. This is a great new AM routine find for my oily skin. -
Bath & Body Works Japanese Cherry Blossom Body Lotion
This is one of my favorite scents from bath and body works. It's amazingly light and floral. The lotion itself is very moisturizing and not too thick. Perfect for winter and fall. Can't wait to repurchase. My current one is almost over.

Dove beauty bars have been a household staple in my family for years. I love the creamy feeling and the scent of the soap! Although it melts easily in contact with water so you have to store it in a dry place. It's great for the skin and not stripping unlike other bar soaps! -
