I decided to try the winged liner look and saw this. It looked like it would be a perfect starter liner to work with.
It is easy to draw the line with thanks to the sturdy tip but it fades within a few hours. It's not quite as black as it's supposed to be and definitely isn't waterproof. I've had to reapply it throughout the day and that's not something I ever have to do with a liner.
Definitely will not be repurchasing this and don't recommend this to anyone else.

Soap & Glory Hand Food: Hydrating Hand Cream

I know people out there rave about this but my hands just get super dry and even more cracked after using this. I do adore the rose scent, but I just can get over the feeling it leaves on my hands. It's odd because when you first try it, it feels like your hands are going to love this.
Definitely a no-go for me.

Pantene Pro-V Ultimate 10 BB Creme Beauty Balm for Hair
This cream smells great and it works fine as an after styling cream to smooth out any minor flyaways but that's about it. I didn't find it to be helpful in repairing the damage on my hair, didn't make it any softer and it doesn't protect from heat... +
This cream smells great and it works fine as an after styling cream to smooth out any minor flyaways but that's about it.
I didn't find it to be helpful in repairing the damage on my hair, didn't make it any softer and it doesn't protect from heat damage.
It also squirts out of the bottle with crazy force and goes everywhere when you just press the top lightly.
Sadly, this is a major miss and I don't recommend it at all.

I've been wanting to try these for the longest time and I stumbled upon them at my local Korean grocery store.
The masks are a super affordable $2 each of 3 for $5.
I got to try a couple of them so far and those 20-30 minutes are pure relaxation and my skin felt refreshed, softer and smoother.
And a huge bonus is the adorable packages they come in.

I tried this because of a YouTuber that I watch was raving about this.
The spray is great for volumizing on 3rd day hair (my hair is quite dry so I wash it twice a week usually). You do have to spray it from the 8-12 inches away like the bottle says otherwise you get powdery patches and it doesn't disperse evenly.
It does add quite a bit of volume especially if you flip your hair upside down when styling.
The one big issue that I'm encountering is that towards the end of the day it makes my scalp a little itchy and it's not something I've ever encountered with other dry shampoos.
Overall, I do recommend this product.

This has been my go-to every day blush since I bought it forever ago. I have the colour 115 Mauve Cool.
It's the softest wash of colour which works in the winter and in the summer if applied more generously. It has a slight hint of shimmer in it and it doesn't streak or cake on the face.
Towards the end of the day it just blends in with my foundation and looks natural.
I believe it's been discontinued, but if the formulations of the iteration of this line are just as good, definitely give it a shot!

I know I love something when I've gone through 3 tubes of it and find myself going back for more.
Even after the fairly recent repackaging of this product it is still great.
It has great coverage, doesn't cake and can be built up for more coverage. I'm in the lightest shade 125-Light and it's quite a good match. If they made it one shade lighter, I'd use that for winter time.
It's good for blemishes, redness around the nose and most days also for my under eye area.
Sometimes I use it as an eye shadow primer, which I must admit isn't the best, but it works.
Overall, love it and will continue to repurchase until further notice.

I got a sample of this mascara and after all the hype about it, I wanted to see if it lived up to its name.
In short - YES! It does in fact leave my lashes clump free.
However, aside from colouring them black and not clumpy it doesn't do much else. It's almost as if very little mascara actually adheres to the lashes, which is probably why they aren't clumping or sticking together.
It's what I use when I need a swipe of mascara and run out the door to the store or the gym (my lashes are very light otherwise and I don't like how that looks)
I did find it to be a great mascara to layer overtop a mascara that gives great volume but tends to flake. Together they work wonders.

I brought something back to Lush which didn't work for me and they gave me a sample of this cream to try. This was during Christmas season so it's probably no longer available.
The major issue I have with this is the super super strong smell which lingers forever.
It also feels really chalky so my hands feel even dryer than they did before I put it on. It is a pretty shimmery snowy colour if that's something you look for in a hand lotion.
Overall, total disappointment.

While it's more than I'd normally pay for a lipstick, it was part of a gift set so it's well worth it.
I have the colour Grandest Grape and I love it.
Major plus is the tapered shape of a crayon which is helpful in making a precise line. It's a vibrant hue that looked a bit scary in the tube but it's beautiful on. You can sheer it out for a nice hint of colour or embrace the full colour and make it a statement lip kind of day. It stays on for a long time and stains the lips so even when it's rubbing away it's visible and doesn't make the ugly ring of faded lipstick.
More products should come in crayon form!
