Beauty Product Reviews

A hard NO!

Before using it didnt smell very good. There didnt seem to be any blood orange fragrance. After applying it just became a harsh chemical smell. Within a half an hour of putting this on I had a horrible migraine.

I really wanted to love this, but...

My brushes don't fit. A Wayne Goss #13 is a tight fit. None of my chikuhodo brushes fit, nor do half my sigma brushes. Disappointing since I'm looking for something that travels well.

Follow up

I listed a review in June 2017. I've been using this for more than a month now. This lip treatment is working BETTER than I hoped. Great things come in small packages. I use only at night now and occasionally during the day (twice during the day this week). I have been able to remove all other lip products from my routine. I still have 3/4 of this product left. I do keep it in a cool place to keep it solid. I love it.

Worth the price for me

I live in Utah. The climate here has freaked out my skin and lips. Add to that I have lupus and a lot of allergies to most skin care items. I am constantly on the look out for lip products that help and don't taste like the most awful thing ever. I have tried other more expensive products ($60 for 0.32oz) with disastrous results. I also go thru tubes of lip masks a month that cost $25. So I didn't think too much about trying this item with a $35 price tag, however, I was floored when I had the product in my hand. It's small. Like "oh my goodness that's tiny" small. But it didn't smell bad, I wasn't allergic to any of the ingredients, so I tried it. Mine is pretty solid so I didn't use very much and I like it a lot. When I lick my lips there isn't a horrible taste. Most of it soaked right in so there is no glossy lip look going on. I use so little that I know it will reduce my agave lip mask purchase from $300 a year to almost nonexistence. While there is less than half the amount of product than I was expecting, I use less product less often thru out the day. This will be an overall cost saving for me. The packaging is nice, but I will have to take extra care and not leave it floating around in my purse since I think the lid comes off too easily. Before choosing to purchase consider the size and whether it is a justification for your lip. For me, so far I love it and will continue to repurchase.

Shouldn't make a rattle noise when empty

Cute but looks cheap, it makes noise when empty and really impractical since it isn't magnetic. Returning.

No thank you

Very chalky, not silky and doesn't last 10 min. I have very pale skin so I was extremely disappointed that Shadore had little color payout even when using a heavy hand. This is NOT typical with Kevin Aucoin products. I bought the celestial powder in Starlight at the same time and am over the moon happy with it. Shadowed is just this weird anomaly for me.

No thank you

2 of the purple shades just end up looking muddy and blah on my eyes. Returning. I'd rather spend a little more and buy better quality.

Love these!

These are great. Keeps my Mac 150 and Chikuhodo brushes from being misshapen after travel. Makes it easier to dry my brushes. The extra small are to small for my needs (to small for the handle portion of Wayne Goss and Sigma brushes) so I am returning. These are better than I expected.

Beautiful color

The picture doesn't do this color justice. Love it. Has a metallic rose gold look to it. Use the Smith and cult top coat and it is holding up well. 5 days no chipping.

long lasting beautiful scent

I sprayed two quick sprays of this perfume early in the day and loved it all day. I would say it's a mature scent in that it's not overly sweet or over the top floral. It's a rather complex perfume. Not only did I enjoy it all day, but I got many complementary remarks from men and women. I think this may replace my Tom Ford Blond Orchid since that one needs to be reapplied after 4 hours or so.
