For a western bb cream, this is one of the best ones. This is not particularly mattifying, but it is a good basic starter bb cream/tinted moisturizer. I find this to be a buildable light to medium coverage, and the color is light for me, but it is very moisturizing, and the smell is non-offensive, but present. For this to last any amount of time, this does need to be set with powder. I really like the packaging, as there is a pump, in addition to a lid, so it is very sanitary, and prevents accidental drips like with squeeze tubes. -

I recommended this to my friend, and this is her new HG. This powder is everything. It is finely milled, truly mattifying, and if you calculate, dirt cheap. Honestly, perfect for makeup artists, because it comes in huge 70g containers. I've used this for a year, and I have not made a dent in it at all. I don't think you need a ton of this when you use it as it is so finely milled, and spreads and blends like a dream. The only downside is that it contains talc (which is also in baby powder). It also only comes in two shades, translucent and medium, and translucent is quite pale, but if it works for your skin tone, and you're ok with paying more for a powder that is literally 70g, then I highly recommend this. -
Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar in Tart Cherry Crisp with Pomegranate Flavour

I was able to try these chocolates out as a part of the Chickadvisor Product Review Club. These chocolates are amazing. They taste really high quality, I think because they used dark chocolate. I really like cherry and pomegranate in general, but the taste of them together is delicious and tarte. These were surprisingly crunchy, due to crisp rice, which was rather unexpected, but it doesn't take away from how these taste. Despite that there is only 90g of chocolate, these chocolates are really portable. I think that it is excellent design that the outer box is resealable, but as I liked how these tasted a lot, and there was only 90g, I could finish it in one sitting. -

I was able to try these chocolates out as a part of the Chickadvisor Product Review Club. These chocolates are amazing. They taste really high quality, I think because they used dark chocolate. Usually I do not like coconut or mango too much, but the combination of them together was really unique. You definitely get the scent of coconut in this chocolate. I wasn't expecting these to be crunchy, but I enjoy the light crunch that these chocolates have. While I do think that 90g, is rather small for a bar of chocolate, these chocolates are really portable. I think that it is excellent design that the outer box is resealable, as these are rather sweet, so you can save some for later so that you don't get sick of it. -

I was able to try these chocolates out as a part of the Chickadvisor Product Review Club. These chocolates are amazing. They taste really high quality, I think because they used dark chocolate.I really like the combination of Blueberry and Almond, as it is really unique. In comparison to the regular Brookside chocolates with blueberries, these taste similar, but are crunchier because of the almond, however, you definitely get more to snack on with those ones. These chocolates are really portable though, and I think that it is excellent design that the outer box is resealable. -

Real Techniques brushes are awesome. They may not be the prettiest brushes out there, but they are great for basically anyone, from beginners to experts in makeup. They aren't the most well-made brushes, as the hair is sparser than some other brushes, and they aren't the softest brushes ever, but they perform really well, clean easily, and do their job. This brush works great for setting under the eyes, or any problem areas. Its also a great highlighter brush. All this said, it's that awkward size where its a little small to do much blush stuff (its great for precise contouring!) and a little too big to be a good eye brush. So keep that in mind. The size is a little deceptive in the pictures -

Real Techniques brushes are awesome. They may not be the prettiest brushes out there, but they are great for basically anyone, from beginners to experts in makeup. They aren't the most well-made brushes, as the hair is sparser than some other brushes, and they aren't the softest brushes ever, but they perform really well, clean easily, and do their job. This particular brush though, is a true multi-tasker. Being that it is a flatter shape, it works to buff foundation and powder. Be warned that the brush is a little bit smaller than expected, but that works to its advantage, as it fits amazingly under the eyes, around the nose and lips. Definitely recommended. -

Real Techniques brushes are awesome. They may not be the prettiest brushes out there, but they are great for basically anyone, from beginners to experts in makeup. Some of the brush shapes that they have are really hard to find in the drugstore. Notable brushes that I find to be really unique are the Blush brush, which is egg shaped, and the duo fibre set which you can't find similar brushes elsewhere at the drugstore. They aren't the most well-made brushes, as the hair is sparser than some other brushes, and they aren't the softest brushes ever, but they perform really well, clean easily, and do their job -

This mascara reminds me of the wand from Benefit's They're Real mascara. I think the issue that most people have with this is that it doesn't give a lot of volume compared to the other lashblast mascaras. I don't think this mascara is supposed to give a lot of volume, but rather fan out your lashes, and the spiky end is great for reaching the lower lashes. As a girl with really short lashes that stick straight out, the spiky end really helps to bring them out, and give them some curl. I think i'm just a sucker for the wide eyed look, and if you have eyelashes that grow in funny directions, the spiky end of this mascara tames them nicely. The control that you have with the wand is something that you don't have with many other mascara wands, so I think it's a must have. -
