I like to use a setting spray for long wear occasions like weddings, dance competitions or travel days when I want to ensure my makeup does not smudge or rub off. I used this for doing my own wedding makeup and it worked great, no transfer or smudging.
I do not notice a scent and the mist is fine enough that you don’t get large drops on your face.
I do find this can be a tiny bit drying when layered over setting powder but is still the most effective choice when you really don’t want your makeup to move and it is always my go to choice for special occasions.

This light fixture is great for a bedside table area or anywhere you want to be able to adjust or direct the amount of light. It pivots easily forward or backward and the shade limits the how far the light travels, so you could easily illuminate just one side of a bedroom for example.
The cord is quite flexible to reach the nearest outlet and the switch just has the two settings and clicks on and off. The matte black finish would match with a variety of décor styles .
It took my husband about 10 minutes to install with a drill and screwdriver and you do need to provide the lightbulb of your choice.

Although the colour looks quite bright and pigmented coming out of the tube, it blends out easily and provides a sheer and buildable water colour effect, very natural and not patchy. I did not notice any scent.
It feels light on the skin, wore well throughout the day and doesn’t smudge once it sets. I was looking for a more coral toned blush to use in the summer so this was a great option and the packaging is secure and doesn’t spill for travelling. I received this product free for review.

This eye serum has a light lotion serum texture, spreads very easily and it does have a noticeable light floral herbal scent.
The packaging is very unique and luxurious, you can customize how much to dispense with the pump and the product mixes together as it comes out of the three holes in the dispenser, the shape of the bottle is very comfortable to hold in your hand.
There are some skin care ingredients including Hyaluronic Acid, C+Niacinamide, and Vitamin F which should help the eye area with long term use and caffeine to help with immediate depuffing and I noticed a tightening feeling right away after applying.
I will continue to use this as my daytime eye serum, and it wore well under makeup, I personally prefer more of a cream texture for night time use.

This lip gloss wears almost like a lip balm, it is soft and hydrating, non-sticky and gives a nice shine, this pink colour is very neutral, wearable, sheer and can be applied without a mirror or lip liner. I did not notice a scent and it wears off without leaving colour behind and leaves lip feeling soft. The applicator is quite flexible and soft and the packaging looks luxurious. Overall a great shade for summer and this is probably the best lip gloss I’ve tried this year!

This YSL Loveshine lipstick in shade 44 is very easy and smooth to apply, you don’t need lipliner or a mirror, fairly sheer and gives a “your lips but better” effect very natural but with a bit of colour, this shade is a cool toned pink and could show as quite a light pink. Feels more like a balm than a traditional lipstick. It does wear off quite quickly, maybe lasts about an hour, less if eating. The packaging is heavy and elegant and the product is not so soft that it would break off in the tube, overall a very easy to wear sheer formula in a lipstick format. I received these products complimentary for review purposes. -

I really liked the brush on this mascara and felt that it provided a good amount of separation along with the lift and volume. The packaging is nice with the raised YSL letters in blue to show the waterproof formula. The formula did not feel too thick and no smudging throughout the day and it came off fairly easily with makeup remover. I think this would be great for special events, travelling and other long wear situations. ( I was gifted this product for review.) -

Review of the Nectarine Petal Eau de Parfum from the H2Eau collection by Clean Reserve:
This fragrance is a fruity musk with notes of nectarine, peach blossom, chamomile, amber and musk. It reminds me of a fresh and fruity shampoo type scent and had moderately good lasting power, I applied it in the morning before work and it dried down to a light and pleasant skin musk after lunch, the nectarine really comes out in the top notes but not overly sweet.
It is an alcohol free, water based formula which applies a bit like a perfume oil upon application but dries down quickly. Very fresh, easy to wear, great for summer or hotter weather and the travel rollerball is ideal to keep in your purse for touch ups, overall, I think it is a fun, fresh summery fragrance if you like something light, musky and fruity.
