I tend to stay away from cream/liquid highlighters as I often struggle with application and creating a natural highlight. This illuminator applies quite subtle and sheer, so if you are looking for more of a pronounced highlighter, this one probably wouldn't be for you. Application is quite easy and non-messy and can be applied with just fingers! Please note that this was received as #freeproduct for testing purposes. -

I find sometimes applications of loose powder foundations can often be a little mess. I do like that the Nude By Nature loose powders products have a mesh sifter as opposed to a hard plastic sifter, as it makes picking up product a lot easier. The loose powder feels ultra smooth and light on the skin and application looks natural. A little product goes a long way, so I'm sure this foundation will last for quite some time. -

I love the formulation of these shadows! They have this super vibrant foiled effect. These shadows are quite pigmented and apply quite buttery smooth with fingers. There is not whole lot of shadow fallout. The colours in this palette are complimentary of one another and can be used to create such beautiful together without the use of other palettes! The packaging, despite being cardboard is quite thick and heavy duty. -

This gloss stick is super cute, as the stick is in the shape of a heart. As this is a gloss/balm, the stying power isn't great and requires application; however, it is quite pigmented and feels hydrating and comfrotable on the lips! It comes in a nice range of colours and is a great introductory product for someone just getting into lipsticks, as these gloss sticks are a bit more subtle and natural looking. The one drawback to this gloss stick is that it is a click type pen and the product can not be wound down, however, the product does not wind up up very quickly. -

I am a frequent tea drinker and this tea combines elements of two of my favourites! Green and Peppermint. Some of the teas that I drink are quite strond if you steep them longer than the recommended town, the flavour is a bit much. This tea was not one of those. It was a bit more subtle and not in your face. Definitely, perfect for new tea drinkers! And while I am a fan of loose leaf tea, I am a a fan of teas in tea bags. It makes the tea drinking so much easier. No leaves to spill and clean up is a breeze! If you are looking for a subtle green tea and love peppermint, this one would be the prefect tea for you! -

The Hydra Essentiel Cooling gel is a non-greasy cream with a gel consistency. Living in Alberta where it's dry for most of the year, especially for this combination-leaning-dry-in-the-winter, I usually need that thick, rich, emollient moisturizer in the winter for my skin to stay moisturized. Im not sure that this will be enough for that dead of winter dryness, but for the mild temperatures so far, this cream works! The gel moisturizer has a slight cooling effect when first applied and I really liked that this moisturizer isn't heavily fragranced. This moisturizer probably would work the best for those living in less dry climates or oilier skin types! Please note I received this moisturizer for testing purposes. -

Applying foundation with a beauty blender sponge makes getting ready in the morning a breeze and leave your face with an airbrushed look. However, I find that these sponges need to be replaced every 4 months as they start to tear after regular use and washing! It is bit pricey for something that needs to be replaced frequently and for that reason, i would prefer using brusbes to apply foundation, as they generally last longer than sponges. -

I was skeptical of whether these brushes were worth the money because it looked like any other brush, but this brush is perfect those with long hair prone to getting tangly and knotty. This brush makes it suoer easy to work through a mass of tangles without making you feel like youre going to yank all the hair out of your scalp! -

This is the first time I have used a gel mask and i really enjoyed it. It feels slightly more comfortable than the traditional paper sheet masks and is a bit more effective staying on your face, so you can definitely do it while relaxing in front of the tv or reading a book! It is interesting that this marks comes with two layers on either side of the mask to be removed. The layer that covers the side of the mask was easy to remove, but I had some difficulty removing the outer layer. Likely it is because I wear glasses and without them, it is quite hard to see anything that isnt right in front of my face. I like that the mask has this cooling effect when on your face and for the most part feels confortable. The mask is quite large so I think it would fit most people's face. However, if your face is a little on the smaller side, the holes may or may not line up! I like that this mask is drenched in the essence. My skin felt more supply and smooth after this mask. This is perfect for those dry winter months! -

This palette is a really great starter palette for someone that is new to makeup and just starting to build their collection. The shades are all fairly neutral but provide enough range so that you can put together neutral day look for work and do smoky eye in the evening as well. There are a few matte shades although most are shimmery. These shadows apply on par with other Urban Decay shadows, there is a bit of fallout but nothing crazy. -
