My favourite high end pen liquid liner, especially with the contentious KVD boycott. Pricy and not waterproof, but it looks good and is easy to use. Reliable - doesn’t dry out or splay at the tip as quickly or as badly as most drugstore liners.

Even with regular use, it feels like these powders last forever. It took over a year to hit pan on one of them, and there is still plenty of product left.
I usually use the lightest powder (the middle one) or swirl it with the one on the left to lightly set my concealer, which makes too light concealer blend a little better and makes slightly too dark concealer brighter.
I use the left powder as a finishing powder all over my face and sometimes I use the right powder as a bronzer topper. Effects are subtle but I have better makeup days when I use it

My favourite lip mask, especially the Maple and Champagne for the subtle tint of colour and great scents. I’m a little scared to try the reformulation in case it’s too different so I’m glad I stocked up on the OG formula. I hope the new one will have a wide range of colours and scents too!
If the OG formula is too thick for you (or it won’t come out of the tube), stick it in your pocket or waistband for a few minutes while you brush your teeth or do something else so your body heat loosens up the formula. Works like a charm!

Definitely my most preferred dry shampoo for both price and effectiveness. My Asian hair is long and stick straight - it naturally falls quite flat. This dry shampoo makes my hair feel much less oily and adds enough grit to give me some volume at the roots and body.
The texture of this is much different from the regular Batiste dry shampoos - it feels much grittier and textured, more like a traditional powder dry shampoo but still coming out of an aerosol. I personally like this because of the body and volume it adds, but also you can still feel the texture the day after applying. Sometimes I just massage it again without adding more product the next day and it looks even better than the first day, giving me two good hair days in between washing.
Sometimes I wish it wasn’t in aerosol form for environmental reasons, but unfortunately it is also super convenient.

I feel like the BB cushion fad has passed, but I think this will continue to be one of my favourite foundations.
I don’t wear foundation often, so I appreciate that this feels light, dries down while still looking dewy, and is easy to apply. I also like that it has an SPF because it gives me another reason to wear it - I took it traveling in Asia with me for the extra SPF protection and it’s a lot easier to keep reapplying than plain sunscreen.
The smell is quite strong and lingers for a bit before disappearing. I don’t mind it (I actually kind of like it now - it’s very sweet), but I would imagine many wouldn’t like it. I also don’t wear it every day because it is so fragranced.
It is quite expensive, but at least it comes with a replacement cushion too.
