these lip balms are beautiful. they coast the lips in a smooth layer of hydrating shine, they have the signature ysl mango scent, and the shea butter and maracuja oil leaves your lips looking plump and shiny. my only caveat is that the tint tends to defer to that “ph pink” that every single ph adjusting lippie turns into.
if you love a tinted lip balm then truly these were made for you. the packaging in stunning, they feel so nourishing on the lips, and they keep your lips feeling hydrated for a few hours. these would be a fantastic “touch-up” balm to keep in your purse. so once again ysl makes another incredible luxury balm, but in my humble opinion, it still doesn’t quite reach the candy glaze glory ;)

when i was initially sent this blush from @armanibeauty and @thisisbutterly in exchange for this review, i was excited to try the formula but was a little wary of the shade, intense berry (65.)
this blush is lightweight and incredibly easy to blend. the colour was nuanced enough that it didn’t read as a cold purple, but rather almost a toasted plum, and was much more flattering than i expected. it layered well with no patching at all, and left a skin like finish that lasted all day.
overall am hugely impressed with the armani cheek tints and if you find a colour that calls to you i would definitely recommend them.

just between me and you, these days i’m a pretty sweaty gal, so i need a setting spray that’s going to make my makeup last, and the all nighter did just that.
it wasn’t as drying as some fixing mists i’ve used, but my dry skin does feel a little better with the more hydrating setting spray that i currently use. so while i myself won’t be making the switch, i can see why this is such a cult classic product, and i would easily recommend it to people with normal, combo and oily skin.

this new eye serum consists of a hyaluronic, a vitamin c and niacinimide serum, and a linoleic acid serum which blend together in your fingertips.
as you smooth the serum over the contours of your eyes the effects can be felt almost immediately - my under eyes felt cooled, hydrated and tightened and much more awake.
thank you to lancôme for sending me this serum in exchange for this review. i hope to see even more improvement as i continue to use the serum.

the formula is like a thin, light lip oil in a stick, complete with the iconic ysl mango seed oil. i had previously tried shade 44, beautiful light cool pink, and was unsure about the colour, so i’m extremely get be able to try shade 150, which is a warmer burnt peach nude with a slight sheen and it’s a perfect mlbb. this is definitely my colour. -
