Beauty Product Reviews

great concealer

I love Hourglass and they didn't disappoint with their new concealer. It takes just the tiniest amount to get good coverage and it's smooth and doesn't cake up. Being that I'm 55yrs old I do have a small amount of wrinkling under my eyes, they aren't deep or extremely noticeable (thankfully) and this concealer does not enhance them at all. I'm very happy with it and use it every single day ;o)

amazing primer

I have combo to oily skin and I've had problems in the past getting a primer that works well without me having to use 2 different primers. When I discovered this primer a couple years back it quickly became my only primer. It is applies so nicely and you need a small amount so it lasts a good while. I have found that using it under my eyes before putting on concealer I have less caking and it helps smooth everything out really well.

absolutely beautiful packaging

I love Hourglass' packaging, everything they release is packaged in a very sophisticated and eye catching way. The formula of the lipsticks is one of my favorites and the fact that they released this set with the holder being pink was something I just couldn't resist...unfortunately the larger set was sold out on beautylish so I ordered it directly from hourglass but I did get the smaller set here on beautylish. Yes, I like these so much that I purchased both sets ;o)

beautiful color

what can I say Hourglass is an amazing brand...I love their lipstick formula and this color "addicted" is such a pretty color. It not only looks beautiful but wears nicely and feels very moisturizing. I'm not a fan of the flat matte lipsticks that is very popular, I much prefer a lipstick that feels moisturizing and comfortable.

great primer

I have a couple primers that I really like and this one has definitely made it into that list. I have combo to oily skin and haven't had any problems with this primer making me extremely oily at all. It really helps your foundation go on smoothly and keeps you from looking cakey. I've used it with drugstore foundation as well as with my high end foundations and it has worked well with all of them.

best makeup remover I've used

I've used many makeup removers and while I do have a couple that work well this Green Clean from Farmacy is the best one I've used and has quickly become the only one I use. It removes all makeup but does not leave your skin feeling stripped and dry which is great. It is definitely my first step in cleaning my face and I have quickly fallen in love with the Farmacy brand

can't beat Chikuhodo brushes

I have purchased quite a few Chikuhodo brushes now from Beautylish and love every single one of them. Between my Wayne Goss brushes and the Chikuhodo brushes my eye shadows have never looked better. This Z-11 blend brush is fantastic. It helps blend and blur out the harsh lines so you get a beautiful blown out look without losing any of your color. These brushes are worth every penny. Thank you to Beautylish for offering the split up payments so it's easier to afford brushes like these when you are on a budget ;o)

amazing brushes

I have so many brushes that I have accumulated over the years, from high end Goss, Chikuhodo, hourglass etc to affordable brushes, real techniques, it for ulta etc but the sonia G brushes have quickly become my favorites. They blend product like a dream without tugging or dragging and for eyes they give you that blown out look effortlessly without having to spend so much time blending and blending. They are constructed so well that I can see these brushes lasting many years without any issues. I like the weight of them and the feel of the solid handle not to mention they are very elegant looking. A win win in my opinion, although they are pricey and I find myself just purchasing one or two at a time beautylish is a great help with their option for multiple payments and keeps me from draining my bank account all at once ;o)

fantastic brush and blender cleaner

I've used a few different products for deep cleaning my brushes and blenders and I really love these solid cleaners. They cleaned all my goss, sonia and chikohodo brushes beautifully without drying them out. I was a hesitant to just purchase anything to clean this higher end brushes but I feel I made a great choice with the Clean Apothecary solid and would definitely recommend them to everyone whether you have expensive brushes or more affordable brushes. Cleaning your brushes with the correct cleaner makes a difference and this cleaner didn't dry out my brushes one bit, they are nice and soft and not crusty or stiff when they dry.

absolutely beautiful

I don't want to say that this powder is magical but........it's magical ;o) I have used so many finishing powders over the years and I have to say this one is by far my favorite. It leaves your face looking flawless and not dry or cakey. Hourglass has yet to let me down with any of their products, they are one of my absolute favorite brands.
