better than the ordinary Hydronic acid

absorbs better, leaves skin plumb and soft. Its not a one and done product but its a lovely layering product. My one small gripe is the fragrance but its mild and fades almost instantly.

updated review

I said I wasn't Wow-ed by this color but I've totally changed my mind. Its the a perfect winter blush shade. I find myself reaching for this shade a lot. Not really great for summer looks.

natural and skin-like

This one is hard to explain, in some lights its a nude/soft mauve color, and on my light-med warm skin tone, it also pulls a peachy rosy tint. While some blush shades are more brightening(peachy pinks, bubble gum pinks), others are more sculpting(nudes, mauves); I think mood exposure is more of a sculpting shade. Its versatile for many looks, and won't clash with a heavy eye makeup. The formula is the best, its very smooth and airy so you'll never get patchy. There are no visible shimmers, and maybe a very subtle glow that aids in it looking skin-like. I like it for its versatility but I'm not super WOW-ed.

Soft focused glow

This isn't something you will see in photos but in person, the powder gives a nice subtle glow. I use it on my cheekbones and it gives a pretty lit from within glow. Previously I've owned the three pan ambient lighting palette and I wasn't impressed, they just didn't look that great on my skin, and the effects were minimal and at times I felt it they accentuated my pored and make my skin look even more bumpy. However, theres something different about this individual powder in luminous light that doesn't do all those things.

Lucky Bag Winnn

I received this palette in this year's lucky bag and surprisingly, I love it. I wasn't planning on buying it myself due to mixed reviews. upon trying it myself I was very please. The mattes are super pigmented and required a light hand but the results are stunning! The shimmers are very nice too, they're not super foiled like Natasha Deanna shadows but they do pack nicely. For $42, I think its totally worth the price.

So far I've tried Lucid(inner corner), Unity (all over the lid), Sprinx (center of lid), Obsidian(liner), and Parallel (outer corner). They all performed beautifully, and blended seamlessly.

Patchy mousy mess

While I do like the color dolly bird, a flattering medium mink shade, I found the formula a little hard to work with. I found that it accentuated the texture on my lips, and it didn’t sit well around the center of my lips. Using my finger to smooth out the lines definitely helps. The formula reminds a lot me of the buxom whipped liquid lipsticks, except I like the smell on these CHarlotte Tilbury ones better. It has a nice cake smell that disappears once applied. overall, it’s nice, but I’m not in love PROS: nice smell, sets, long lasting, pretty shade CONS: hard to work with formula, but not impossible

Lightweight, natural

6 medium has a nice olive yellow undertone, and is suitable for nc30. The coverage is light to medium, and provides a very natural, light weight finish that gets more dewy as your natural oils come out throughout he day. You cannot see the foundation on my skin, it simply makes my skin look better, more flawless. Great for dry skin, and feels very comfortable on. Reminds me of Mac f&b, but I much prefer this formula.

Kittens Paw

People were not exaggerating when the raved about how soft this brush is. All the hype is true! It is purrr-fect for spot setting the face. Its much softer than my other wayne goss brushes, as soft as my chikuhodo Z brushes.

Great for setting the face, also can be used for very pigmented highlighter or blush

Love everything but the scent

My lips feel spoiled with this stuff. It's a beautiful balmy, not too thick and sticky but not to thin and runny feeling. It makes my lips feel very hydrated and soft which is rare given how rough this winter has been. Before purchasing this lip balm, I was using the bite beauty lip agave. Compared to that product, the by terry lip balm feels more nourishing, like its sinking into my lips and healing it, it's also not as thick feeling as the bite beauty one.

As someone who is sensitive to scent my one gripe is the fragrance, its so fragrant that I can almost taste the rose with I smack my lips together. Please by terry, just kick back on the grandma rose scent a little.

Besides that, I think this lip balm does everything I expect from a lip balm.

More finely milled than my Becca highlighters. I think it provides the same amount of glow as the Becca ones, but it’s a touch more smooth and build able than the Becca ones. With light-med skin, shade light really pops on my cheeks. I think most people will like how this highlighter performs, but if you have textured skin like me, you might be less impressed. I personally don’t like how the Becca ones sit on my skin. This highlight sits a little better however I have highlighters a prefer more. It does have a slight fragrance that’s undetectable once applied.
