Like a few people mentioned, its not moisturizing enough. Not thick enough. feels like it just sits on my skin but doesnt really absorb. I'd prefer real aloe vera over this to be honest. Smells nice and is inexpensive overall for such a large bottle... +
Like a few people mentioned, its not moisturizing enough. Not thick enough. feels like it just sits on my skin but doesnt really absorb. I'd prefer real aloe vera over this to be honest. Smells nice and is inexpensive overall for such a large bottle but you could probably find a better one in the same price range -

I love using wipes for everything (i..e makeup removing and also to freshen up my face). I like this one because its good on my sensitive combination skin and doesnt leave an oily or greasy feeling like some of the wipes do. My skin feels so refreshed after i use this - its also a great and quick picker-upper for when Im feeling lazy to wash my face thoroughly hehe -

Similarily to the Idealia skin sleep, this product was "just okay" for me. It was moisturizing, smelt nice, didnt clog my pores and had very pretty packaging but I've just used other serums in the past that are less expensive and give me better results so to me, this would not be worth $50. I also felt like the serum did not fully absorb into my skin, as there was pillow transfer even after 1 hour of having applied it on my skin and lying down. Also when I washed my face the next morning, it felt more slippery than with my other serums, meaning again that most of the serum was just sitting on my face and not really absorbing into my skin. -
Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep
The packaging is nice and the texture of the cream is hydrating and does not clog the pores, which is good. However, I found a lot of the product just sat on my skin, and didnt absorb. There was some pillow transfer even after 1 hour of having it... +
The packaging is nice and the texture of the cream is hydrating and does not clog the pores, which is good.
However, I found a lot of the product just sat on my skin, and didnt absorb. There was some pillow transfer even after 1 hour of having it applied it which is WAY too long! Also when I washed my face the next day, it felt very slippery, confirming again, that a lot of cream was just sitting on my skin and not absorbed. This is in comparison to several serums and sleeping masks/creams I've tried. I've used more inexpensive creams that gave me better results so I'll pass.

The ingredients in here are not the most "natural" I guess but the benzoyl peroxide works wonders for acne (especially cystic acne)! I used it on a few annoying pimples I had on my back since I don't have any facial acne and back acne tend to be more problematic and tough to get rid of. I've definitely noticed a difference after I started using this cleanser! It is also super affordable and the bottle is huge! -
Lancôme Paris L'Absolu Rouge with SPF 12
Regularly priced at $36, I would expect WAY better results and quality. Luckily I at least got it on sale for $20 which is still steep. The packaging is great and the colour is nice but just feels like every other lipstick that dries oout your lips... +
Regularly priced at $36, I would expect WAY better results and quality. Luckily I at least got it on sale for $20 which is still steep. The packaging is great and the colour is nice but just feels like every other lipstick that dries oout your lips after an hour. I have several other drugstore lipsticks that are much cheaper and are more moisturizing and just as pigmented. Not worth the price. -
Benefit Cosmetics They're Real! Mascara
Got this in the Sephora birthday sample a while back but not sure what the hype's about. Overpriced and definitely does nothing for my eyelashes. Ive used drugstore brand mascaras that are wayyy better. Pretty sure everyone will know my eyelashes... +
Got this in the Sephora birthday sample a while back but not sure what the hype's about. Overpriced and definitely does nothing for my eyelashes. Ive used drugstore brand mascaras that are wayyy better. Pretty sure everyone will know my eyelashes "are real" when I wear this because there's no added volume, length or colour! lol -
Duo Eyelash Adhesive
Fav eyelash glue! Inexpensive, works well and comes in a large tube that lasts a long time. Love that they came out with the black eyelash glue so it blends right in with your makeup with no visible glue marks ;)

This is definitely the most expensive nail polish I'll ever buy. I've used it once so far - but bought it as more of a collector's item. The polish is pigmented, easy to apply and the true Louboutin red. As much as I love the packaging and brand, the quality of the nail polish is no better than your average Essie or Butter London. -
