Butter London Lippy Moisture Matte Lipstick
Why do they have 2 of this up when it's the same thing???
This matte lipstick is really comfortable on the lips but can be kind of drying like most matte lipsticks. It's not too bad though. I can still feel a little bit of slip to it. I love the sturdy packaging on this. Be sure your lips are exfoliated really well because this will cling to dry and flaky patches. The color lasts super long and it leaves a fuchsia stain behind when it rubs off which I do not like. It doesn't make the color true to color anymore. My lips feel super soft with this on. Love how this is unscented and not too heavily perfumed although you can taste a little bit of a vanilla-y taste when it's on the lips. Love the color Toff. It is the only pink lavender shade I can pull off because it's not too bright and loud.

I love my glitter and I didn't want to splurge on Stila's foiled eyeshadow since those were way more pricey and I was hoping this would be a good dupe. I don't like cream eyeshadows since I find they're hard to work with but I'm always willing to give them a try and see if my mind would change. I got this in the color Florence which is just a bunch of coppery neutral shades. I love the colors in this quad but the product itself is too creamy to the point where it never sets so it creases a lot. They still remain tacky on the lid. Three of the colors are pigmented but the gold color in here is quite patchy. Right off the bat, the product is not consistent. These are difficult to work with and with all cream eyeshadow products, it's best to work with the warmth of your fingers. Using this as an all-over lid color is not as good as just packing this on top of your eyeshadow for a glitter shine.

I've never tried anything like this silicone looking stuff on top of my foundation before. Usually I head towards powder to set my foundation but sometimes they just don't do the trick for me. I have super huge pores and NOTHING seems to cover or blur them. Not even Benefit's Porefessional primer that everyone raves so much about. This stuff actually blurred my pores and makes my skin look poreless. I love how it also kept my oil at bay. It leaves my skin looking matte throughout the day. The only thing I don't like is that it makes my skin look cakey with this on top. Even though this is supposed to be a sort of "translucent" makeup, it whitens my foundation like crazy and in flash photography makes my face look white as a ghost. I prefer using this under my makeup as a primer instead of using it as a finishing powder. This was an impulse buy since Ulta had this as one of their steal on their 21 Days of Beauty sale and I figured since it was half off might as well try it and see. Totally recommend for people with oily skin and huge pores.

Everyone raves about this eyeliner on YouTube. I'm usually not a fan of these kind of liquid eyeliners that has this same brush applicator concept especially after the Maybelline and Wet N Wild ones let me down. I can tell you this that this eyeliner is NOT good for beginners! The brush on this is long and can be kind of flimsy because it's not felt-tip so it can be tricky to control. But with that being said, I hate how felt-tips can dry out and you will never have a problem with this brush because you dip the brush into the product. I love how this product is not watery like the Wet N Wild one and it's not too thick either. I just wipe the excess off on the rim before applying. This dries to a matte finish without peeling off and doesn't have that vinyl look if you're into matte eyeliner. I love how after putting this on, it acts as a primer for my lashes at the base so that when I curl my lashes, it holds the curl. This eyeliner performs better if you work in layers and not completely applying it to the eyelid without wiping excess off. I use my pinky to stabilize my application and once this sets (which didn't even take that long for me) I could get a precise perfect cat eye look. If you don't want it to transfer to your bottom lid, just close your eyes and fan your hands in front of your eyes to dry it quicker. I reach for this often. I love how it's super dark and although it doesn't smudge or smear a lot, it does transfer to my bottom lash line especially in my inner corner which is annoying. I have learned to apply the eyeliner not coating my lashes in the process because it will transfer to my bottom lash line. It is not waterproof so it washes off easily with just water. Once you learn how to use this liner and perfect it, you will love it like I have. And don't forget, it's such a bargain for $3.

I was expecting this to have the same pigmentation as the pressed version of this but this is a very subtle highlight if you like that sort of thing. I don't prefer this one because it's too subtle for my liking. It doesn't feel too greasy and has a dryer formula so it will not move around but blends nicely. I like how the shimmer in here is finely milled and looks like I really have dewy skin.

I love how unique the brush is. However it's extremely hard for me to use or deposit even amounts of mascara onto my lashes. I find that this product is super clumpy. That is an immediate no-no for me when it comes to mascaras for me. It didn't really add volume, curl, lengthen, or separate my lashes either.

Super impressed with this nail polish. Not streaky at all and the watery consistency makes it easy to paint. It's not opaque on the first coat but you will need a second coat. This is the closest nail polish that have come close to a gel-like nail finish without the LED light for me. I have not had any other polishes that creates the same finish as this. It stays on super long and doesn't chip easily at all. Dries fast too. Must get more colors!!!

I got this in the white color to do my french manicure and the color applied streaky and chipped really easily. I need two coats to make it opaque. I am not impressed. It also becomes goopy and tacky and I swear it takes forever to dry. Tried 2 different colors during Ulta's buy 1 get 1 free for China Glaze and the lavender color I got was really streaky as well. Only the beige color I got was a little bit better. It's a hit or miss with all the colors but the one thing they have in common is that they chip too easily and doesn't last long at all.

Smells delicious like oranges but downside is it also feels like it too. I felt like I was wiping orange juice all over my face. It doesn't leave a smooth finish but kind of a tacky feel although not extremely bad. I didn't notice this product stinging like what others said but I did break out from this. Not for my oily skin I guess. I just like how it wasn't drying like other toners I've tried in the past. It's pretty moisturizing so I would recommend this for dry skin people instead.
