Well, they definitely win the award for worst-smelling product. It's really rough. That said, this gives my skin a healthy glow and wears well under makeup. Absorbs quickly and feels silky on the skin. Here's hoping it works on my fine lines, but it's too soon to tell.

This boosting serum makes so much sense to me. Years ago, a derm told me I needed this ingredient for my aging, sensitive skin. But it's not always in the products I gravitate to. Enter this potent booster, which has double the amount of niacinamide of what's recommended in the studies I've read. Love being able to add this into whatever skin care products I'm using that day. Works well in every serum I've added it to. Love.

This leaves a nice dewy appearance to the skin and dries feeling like nothing. It also has a pleasant cooling effect, which makes it feel extra refreshing going on.

This is a smooth, comfortable, almost velvet-y satin liquid lip. I have to blot it well to get it to dry down completely. It's very comfortable -- no stickiness -- and almost feels like a balm. Leaves lips hydrated-feeling. I don't see the high-shine finish that it claims, not does it live up to the 8-hour wear. But it wears off nicely and lasts a good 3-4 hours. I'm not much of a nude lipstick girl, so the colors don't speak to me, but they are lovely and flattering.

Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation goes on sheer and feels completely weightless on skin. It's definitely a your skin but better foundation. It's buildable but definitely not full coverage. I would say medium to light. This works likes a dream on my dry, 40-ish skin. Doesn't crease in fine lines or accentuate pores. Very comfortable and wearable, but if you're looking for flawless, full coverage, this ain't your baby.

There is nothing wrong with this palette -- still the same great formulas that UD is known for. Still, there's nothing exciting about this all-matte, neutral palette either. Feels like they've done it before, and better.

I have this in Studded -- a metallic gray-brown, and the color is head-turning. Within an hour of walking out of the house, I got two compliments. It dries slightly tacky and starts flaking off in the middle right around lunchtime. Not bad at all. I'll definitely keep this in my rotation because the color is so special, but I won't be buying different shades in bulk.

I tried the Vice comfort matte side by side with the new Make Up For Ever Artist Rouge (one of my favorites this year) and they were neck and neck for application, pigment and wear. The UD comfort matte had the slightest edge over MUFE for longevity, while MUFE wins for comfort. Either way, they're both fabulous lipsticks.

This foundation bucks the dewy, YSBB trend with a full-coverage, completely matte foundation. You only need the tiniest bit to cover your entire face. It's practically mask-like in just how even it makes your skin. In that regard, it reminds me of Marc Jacobs Re(marc)able Full Cover Foundation Concentrate. For all of these reasons, I wanted to love this so badly. It looks amazing on my younger coworkers, but on my dry, 40+ skin, it accentuates all of my lines and pores, and sinks into my creases. From far away, it looks good. I do like to mist with a dewy setting spray, because the finish is rather flat.

This was so cooling, I could feel it for 20 minutes after I removed it. It felt so soothing on my skin after too much product testing. But the next morning, my skin felt just as tight as before.
