alleyoop Stack the Odds Mulit-use Face Stacker Review

Hey guys! Today I wanted to review the alleyoop stack the odds stacker. So I was not sure how I would feel about these when I got them. I am very much a powder girly and don't use creams very often. I decided to give them a shot though and I was pleasently surprised by them. There is a bronzer, blush, and highlight in this so I used them in place of those and honestly they are actually really pigmented but also buildable and they look very nice. I feel like they are good for a more dewy look, so if you are going for bright dewy, fresh that kinda thing. I am still more into the matte powder look but this has definately found a place in my routine for the times im in the mood to try out something a little different. I would totally recommend giving them a shot if you are interested in experimenting with cream products.  

Garnier Fructis Curl Multi-Use Oil Review

Hey guys today I wanted to review the Garnier Fructis Curl Multi Use Oil. So quick disclaimer-  I was gifted this from Influenster but these are my opinions. So I love Garnier, however this is must not for my hair type. Evertime I tried this my hair looks like I've just dumped olive oil in it. I have tried using less product but it always makes more come out when you close it and this just isnt working for me. I really wanted it to work and I think it would be amazing for someone with much curlier hair but on me my hair just look wet and greasy with it. So if you have my hair type or less curly I do not recommend, but if you have very curly hair I think it could work.  

tarte Face Tape Review

Hey guys! Today I wanted to review the tarte face tape. I have heard alot about this before but had never personally tried it. I am loving it though, I see why it was/is so popular. This has really good coverage and is actually relativily thick but not like cakey. This covers my dark circles really well and also covers blemishes really well, I have personally been using it as concealer alot and it works really well like that as well as being a great coverage foundation. I am really liking this and will totally look into getting more of this in the full size.  

Half Caked Star Bright Powder Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Half Caked Star Bright Powder. First of all, can we talk about this adorable packaging??? This is super super cute and I love the colors. It's also a really interesting package design in that it has like this little netting kinda thing over the power and you press this thing on top of that to get the product, I have never used anything like that before but I am really liking it. This is actually a really good powder. I have been testing it out for a month or two now and I have reached for it consistently.  It really helps with any shininess and it helps set the products really well. I am a big fan of this and it lasts all day long without needing to reapply. I will totally look into getting more of this and would recommend it :)  

Three Ships Buttercreme Lip Treatment Kit Review

Hey guys! Today  I am reviewing the Three Ships Buttercreme Lip Treatment Kit. First of all, this smells AMAZING, just like buttercreme which I absolutly love. As far as how it works, I really like this.  The sugar scrub is really good and does a great job of making your lips smooth, but isn't overly abrasive which I appreciate. I also love the lip balm, it is super super moisturizing and you can use it after the lip scrub or on its on and it is great. It smells amazing and it also helps keep your lips really smooth and soft. I would totally recommend these. This is probably my favorite of these products I have tried.  

Scott Barnes Sculpting and Contour Pallette Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Scott Barnes Sculpting and Contour Pallette. First of all this is a really pretty pallette. I love the design, it is very simple but nice. I also love the variety of colors in here. I feel like it would work for a variety of skin tones (although it could have some darker option for sure). This is a really nice pallette, it is pretty pigmented and lasts all day. I feel like you can use this for contour or for bronzing if you want. I actually do use it quite a bit. That being said it is $58 USD so it is quite pricey, so this is a nice pallatte but not necessary. I really like it but had I not gotten it in one of my boxes I doubt I would buy just a contour pallette at that price.  

Super Goop Daily Dose SPF Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Super Goop Daily Dose SPF. So this is very oily first of all which is interesting. I am more used to cream sunscreens but nevertheless this is really good. It sits well under makeup and doesn't cause any issues and it does everntually dry down even without. I will say I used this all day one day and got slightly burned (but not remotely bad, just a light redness) so it isn't as good as the neutrogena one I normally use but its also a lowe SPF and I think they all say reapply after a certain amoutn of time which I didn't do so I don't blame this. I like this but I probably won't purchase it simple because I really like the neutrogena one but it does work. This one is supposed to be skincare as well though so I believe it is more than SPF if you are wanting that, I use alot of skincare to begin with so I don't really care abt that part but If you want less steps in your routine this might be worth it. (This is $46 USD) Another t...

Complex Culture Sun Bath Baked Bronzer Review

Hey guys! Today I wanted to review the Complex Culture Sun Bath Bronzer. The packaging is gorgeous first of all. It is very simple but pretty. This color is great for my skintone, it is very warming for me but not too dark, I am able to build this up as a contour or use it lightly as a bronzer. I am a big fan of this, it goes on very well and is very blendable. It has really good pigmentation while also not going on tooo too dark. I am a big fan of this bronzer and will be using it all summer, I would totally recommend it.  

Kayo Body Scrubber Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Kayo Body Scrubber. This was a thing I believe everyone got in the summer FabFitFun box.  I actually really like this, I'm not a fan of loofas because I don't really care for how they feel and I also feel like they can get gross eventually, this is a great alerternative. I like the feel of this and although it is soft I feel like it is somewhat exfoliating and I love how sudsy it can get and how easy it is to clean. I also figured out when shaving its good to wipe the razer on and then you can just clean it off. I am actually a big fan of this and totally recommend it.  

Essance Blush Lighter Gradient Blush Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Essence Blush Lighter. I got this to test for a makeup video i was filming but decided to review it as well. First of all the color on the pallette is beautiful, I love the Pink to champagne gradiant. As far as wearablility this is pretty good for the price point. It is very glowy, I dont like it as a blush personally because it is just so bright with the shimmer but it makes a good highlighter. This is pretty pigmented and lasts all day with no issues. So as a blush, I am not super into this, it looks odd as a blush so if we are reviewing it as a blush, Id say I do not recommend it. If we review it as a highlighter however I think it is pretty good, to put it in perspective when I put it on today I forgot it was a blush and just used it as highlighter, so take that as you will abt the color/shimmer. It is a good product though overall.  

BAREFOOT SCIENTIST Sleep On It Aloe-Infused Socks Review

  Hey Guys! Today I wanted to review the . I was not sure if I would be able to test these because they contain aloe vera but i decided to try just to see if i had a reaction and aside from some mild burning it was ok so I decided to press on testing them. I actually am a huge fan of these, I love the concept of just being able to throw on some socks before bed or after a shower and not need to do the step of using lotion. It is so much less messy and easier on my brain when things seem overwhelming to do. As far as how these work, they are actually super mosistering. I wasn't sure how these would work but they work really well, after the first wear my feet felt much softer and smoother and they get better with each wear. I would absolutely purchase these again. They are not only mosturizing but I find them to be cooling with the gel inside. I do find them a but large on me and I kinda feel like im gonna slip because of the feeling inside but I am not and they are quite comfy even ...

Airspun Loose Face Powder Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Airspun Loose Face Powder. So I have seen this used in a few videos before but had never tried it, since it is cheaper I thought I would give it a shot. Firs off, I am not a fan of the smell. It is pretty strong and Im not loving that, however that does fade as you wear it. It has pretty good coverage when you first put it on, although you need a decent bit. After wearing for a while thought this doesn't do much to keep the oil at bay and I have found on my cheeks it can get kinda chalky/cakey if that makes sense. It also makes a very large mess even for a loose powder. I am probably gonna make do with this and finish it, but I probably will not buy again personally.  

Revlon Color Stay Skin Awaken 5-in-1 Concealer Review

Hey guys, today I am reviewing the Revlon Color Stay Skin Awaken 5 in 1 concealer. Since I have been looking alternatives to some of my fav products I decided to try this one as revlon has had pretty good stuff so far in my search. I am actually a pretty big fan of this, the sponge applicator is interesting, but other than that this is quite nice. This has pretty good medium to high coverage. It also actually does brighten under my eyes and make me look more awake. This also doesn't crease under my eyes or budge all day. I would totally recommend this and buy it again.  

Ciate London Translucent Setting Powder Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Ciate London Translucent Setting Poweder. I absolutley love this product. I am starting to really like loose setting powders and this one is really good. I love that it is transluscnet and it sets my makeup really well. I will get slightly oily on hot days but i can just put a little more on and its all good. I would definately look into buying the full size of this, it lasts ages even in the little sample so I feel like it would be worth it.

Clark's Botanicals Retinol Rescue Overnight Cream Review

Hey guys!! Today I wanted to review the Clark's Botanicals Retinol Rescue Overnight Cream. Now part of me thought I had reviews this before but I couldn't find it, so either way I am gonna do this review lol I have not been super consistant with this nightly, but when I am using it it feels super moisturizing, like it seems like a relativly thick cream and I feel like it really does lock in moisture to my skin. I can't say how helpful it would be to super dry skin because my skin isn't typically too dry but I would inmagine it would work pretty well for dry skin as thick as it feels. It does also dry down decently for a thick cream so I don't mind the thickness too much overall. I feel like that being said there are MUCH cheaper moisturizers that work just as well, I most likely won't purchase this soley for the price point it is at and just because of how much it is I would recommend if a cheaper option works for you to go with that. (1.7oz is 105 USD!)

Pan Oxyl PM Overnight Spot Patch Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Pan Oxyl Overnight Spot Patches. So I have had these and been testing them for a while and I really wanted them to work because I have seen such positive things about spot patches.  I don't know if it is just this brand or they just don't work for me, but I really don't think these do much for me. If anything I feel like they make my spots look worse almost?  I really am not sure if it is just me or the patches but I am not a huge fan of these. I really want to try another brand to compare and see if they work any better but as for these I will not buy them again.  Just for reference I have tried them for various lengths of time at night (like I put them on earlier or later before bed) and they still just don't do very much for me. Do you guys have any brand recommendations that you find work really well? I would love to test them if you do!  

(MALIN+GOETZ) Revitalizing Eye Gel Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Malin+Goetz Revitalizing Eye Gel. I actually think this worked really well. It was very moisturizing and left my skin around that area super soft. I didn't notice that it did a lot for my dark circles but it did make the area seem a bit brighter and glowier. I can't speak for if it helps prevent wrinkles but the amount of moisture would lead me to say I think it would help a lot if used consistently. Now I will say I thought this was fairly expensive at around $40 USD but looking at some similar products I think maybe that must be about the upper end of average for eye creams/gels. Overall I really liked this one.

Earth Harbor Tidal Rose Crystal Hydration Mist Review

Hey guys!! So if you have been here for a little bit you might know I recently discovered I really love Earth Harbor products. This is a newer one I have tried and I really like this one as well. It is very refreshing on the skin and I feel like it just makes my skin feel better. I am not 100% exactly what it does but I can tell a difference. According to the website it helps with inflamation, is PH balancing, has antioxidents, vitimins, minerals and helps remove toxins and proctect against environmental stressors. Is it doing all of this? Maybe I am not sure how I would tell but I can tell you, my skin likes this product and it makes my skin look nicer. It is also supposed to be good for aging I believe which I am all for taking care of my skin now to try and avoid too many wrinkles and what not. I will absolutely get more of this as I run out (it lasts ages though!) and I totally recommend trying this and any other Earth Harbor product. I love all the ones I have tried so far!  

Burt's Bees Micellar Facial Towelettes Review

Hey guys! Today  I am reviewing the Burt's Bees Micellar Facial Towelettes. These were kind of an impulse purchase, I was at the store and just decided I wanted some makeup up remover wipes. These happened to be some of the only ones without aloe so I got these. These work pretty well, they aren't overly wet so I don't have to worry about needing to dry my face after using them and they do a decent job removing my makeup. I do not think they work as well as the micellar water I normally use but they work in a pinch or on a night I just am so tired I just don't want to do anything else. I don't really think they are very hydrating like they claim but they do not dry out my skin so that is good. I am not sure I will buy these again but they are fine, if I needed some and forgot my other makeup remover or just didn't want to take it because it is bulky I would buy it but not for just normal days.  

Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin Cream Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Dr Jart+ Ceramidin Cream. I actually had 2 of these samples so I got to use this for a little while to test it out. I actually really liked this one, it was a very thick cream but it dried down pretty well and felt super moisturizing. My skin felt really nice after using it. It didn't have too strong of a scent either which was also really good. Now I will say I do not think I will be repurchasing the full size simply because it is $48 USD and there are cheaper ones I love that work for me, however it is a really good face cream.  If you have super dry skin and nothing seems to help I would give this a shot and see if it works for you!
