Beauty Product Reviews

Favorite cleansing balm!

I love this balm. It feels so good on the skin and does not leave it feeling over dry. I don’t use wipes, but I do use Micellar water. However, this is my favorite makeup removing product.

Cannot live without!

This is my second bottle. After 30 days, I feel confident leaving the house without makeup. It truly works from within. It has totally changed my day-to-day well-being. I recommend it to all my friends and family!

There are better balms....

I decided to try this as a cheaper alternative to Farmacy and Eve Lom. You get what you pay for — while this does take your makeup off and is fine for double-cleansing, it leaves a milky residue that requires additional rinsing. I’ll probably go back to Farmacy after I finish this.

New favorite serum!

I’m a serum junkie, and this did not leave me disappointed. I was using Sunday Riley Juno before, which was lovely — and RMS Beauty Oil. But this has the same feeling you get from Charlotte’s Magic Cream. It makes you look refreshed, hydrated, and plump. I use it under Magic Cream, and it replaces the need for a dewy primer and gives a “lit from within” effect.

LOVE.

This is love in a bottle. It gives me a perfect glowing filtered look to my skin. I wear underneath a BB cream and it is perfection for when I don’t want to wear foundation. I also use it as a liquid highlight on top of foundation and it is equally gorgeous.

Really like this.

I really like this foundation. The finish is natural, and the coverage is pretty good. It works great with a silicone-based primer underneath. That being said, I don’t love it. Sometimes it looked a little patchy and dry after a few hours. However, I think with the right primer it could be perfect. I might try CT’s to see if brand-matching gives it the slight improvement to make me love it.

Not my favorite.

I’ve tried almost high-end liquid eyeliners, so I considered myself an expert. This one is good; average amongst competitors in luxury beauty brands. But it isn’t as pigmented as I would have expected and the brush tip feathers a bit.

Universally flattering.

This is gorgeous berry shade, universally flattering for all seasons. It’s almost a little “bad girl” but perfectly appropriate for the office. Lasts all day.

Great brush for finishing.

This is a great brush for a flawless finish to foundation. I don’t think it is as magical as the brand’s description made it sound, but I do enjoy it. It does a beautiful job blending setting powder into foundation for a seamless look.

Super shimmery, but just one swipe looks perfect!

I wear this as a one-and-done type of product. It lasts all day, and it is a gorgeous shade of pearly-golden ivory. I’m very fair, so it doesn’t have the white-shimmer-shadow we all wore in high school in the 2000s.
