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.  

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.  

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...

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.  

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 ...

Artist Couture Love Sprung Pallette Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Love Sprung Artist Couture. I just recently got this after signing back up for Ipsy and I quite like it. This is extremely pigmented. You do NOT need much of this at all. I really like the 2 pinks in it, I have been primarily using Baby Bloom but they are both very pretty. The eternal flame is a bit dark for me but I can use it lightly as a highlighter or I can use it as an eyeshadow. This is a very nice blush pallette and I would totally recommend it, it stays put all day and looks great on the skin,  

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.  

Evenprime Hypernova Eye Serum Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Evenprime Hypernova Eye Serum. So I have waited quite a while to review this to give it a good test. It claims to help with dark undereyes, fine lines, and puffiness.  I cannot speak for fine lines because those are not an issue for me yet however I can for the other 2. I do find this helps with the puffiness, it makes my eyes look better in the mornings.  However with the dark circles...I am not finding it to help much from what I can tell, I still have pretty bad dark circles, it maybe helped the slightest bit but eh. I couldn't locate a specific price for this, seems around $20 USD, for that amount it isn't bad, I just don't feel it made a drastic difference.  

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!)

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!  

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!

Cosmedix Skin Thirst Moisturizer Review

Hey guys!! Today I wanted to review the Cosmedix Skin Thirst Moisturizer. I am actually really loving this, I have been using it for a few months and I love what it does for my skin. My skin is very well moisturized with this and it dries down very quickly which I love in a product.  My favorite thing however is that this actually minimizes your pores so it is wonderful for no or low makeup days! I was skecptical about that claim at first but it actually really works. This also says it protects your skin from environmental pollutants, I can't confirm or deny this but I really do like this product. This is one I am very likely to repurchase and would absolutely recommend!  

Real Chemestry Fresh Start Foaming Cleanser Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Real Chemestry Fresh Start Foaming Cleanser. So the formula of this cleanser actually happens to be my favorite type of formula, and this is no exception. I am really liking this, I like how foamy it gets and I feel like I get a really good clean from it. I also feel like a little goes a long way because of the fact it is a foaming cleanser so even the sample size is lasting me ages.  I will say I don't think this would be the best for dry skin. It does dry the skin out a little bit which I don't have an issue with since I use a few moisturizing products right after but if you have dry skin it is something to be aware of. I would say price wise this is about middle ground, it is 24 USD for 4oz which isn't terrible but would also make me consider if some cheaper ones I like work just as well.     Overall though I quite like this and would reccomend it.

Tula Cult Classic Face Wash Review

Hey guys!! Today I wanted to review the Tula Cult Classic Face Wash. So I have had this for a minute now, I got it as an add on with one of my subscription boxes, I don't remember which one, if you have watched my videos and know let me know in the comments lol I really like this though, I like the formula and it suds up really well. I really like the more like creamy sudsy formulas overall so I am loving that that's what this is. I also love that the smell is so light, I really do not like super scented face washes because I am fairly sensitive to smells so I really apprciate that this one is so light. This makes my skin feel really nice when I use it, my skin feels clean and refreshed and this doesn't dry it out, which is good in the winter. I can see why this is so popular because I really like it and I think between the Tula products and Earth Harbor products they might soon make up a large portion of my skincare because both brands have amazing products and I love ever...

Avene Cleanance Expert Review

Hey guys!! Today I wanted to review the Avene Cleanance Experert Face Wash. I tried this about a month ago and totally forgot to review it. This was a very light face wash, it didn't get super sudsy, but it made my skin feel pretty soft after each use. I liked that this didn't have a strong scent to it so I feel like a lot of people could use this, even if they are sensitive to smells/fragrances. I can't really say how much it helps with acne because mine is mostly hormonal so I feel like this didn't make much difference for me in that regard. Overall I think this is a decent face wash but nothing like exciting if that makes sense, but it did work quite well.

Earth Harbor Sunshine Dew Antioxidant Cleansing Oil Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Earth Harbor Sunshine Dew Cleansing Oil. I was very excited that Earth Harbor was an option in my most recent Alltrue box because I love the Marina serum and I was hoping everything else would be just as great. I can say this definately met my expectations. I wasn't sure how I would feel about an oil makeup remover but I am actually really loving it. I use 3 drops on my face and it takes off all my makeup with just that and a tiny amount of water. I even tested it on eyeliner, did amazing. Dark Lipstick, did great. And even lash glue, with just one more drop it came right off. I love that I don't have to scrub hard with this, just gentle rubbing takes the makeup straight off and leaves my skin feeling clean and soft after a rinse. I think I just might have to get this again when I run out, although it will be a minute because these bottles of product last forever which is amazing. I would 100% recommend this, it is an excellent product and I ...

ELF Poreless Face Primer Review

Hey guys! Today I thought I would review the ELF Poreless Face Primer. I have heard some pretty good things about this so I wanted to try it myself. If you are not aware ELF has some amazing prices for drugstore makeup and alot of their items are pretty good, this is one I had never tried so when I ran out of primer I decided to see how this one was. As you can see from the title this is their poreless primer, what I want from my primer is a kinda perfect skin kinda look under my makeup. This applies really really nicely, it isn't sticky or oily it is just super smooth and blends really nicely. My makeup goes on super smooth over this and it helps it stay put all day. I actually really like this and would rate it up there with some of the more expensive ones if I'm being honest. I might make this my main primer from now on.  

27 Rosiers Fight Grime Deep and Fresh Gel Cleanser Review

Hey guys! Today I wanted to review the 27 Rosiers Fight Grim Deep and Fresh Gel Cleanser. To start off I appreciate that this really doesn't have a smell to it. It is super light so no issues there. This as it says is a gel but it still foams up a little and I feel like it does a good job getting into my pores to clean them really well. I also like that this doesn't make my skin feel too dry when I wash it off, my skin actually feels pretty soft and smooth when I wash my face with this. Overall I think this is a really good face wash and I quite like it.

Bobbi Brown Extra Illuminating Moisture Balm Review

Hey guys!! So today I am reviewing the Bobbi Brown Extra Illuminating Moisture Balm. So first impressions of this, not a fan of the smell, it kinda had in my opinion a little bit of an old lady smell, but I did start to get used to it. That being said I did find it to be pretty moisturizing, it made my skin feel really soft.  As far as illuminating I guess? I really only wore it under makeup so I feel like I really couldn't get a good feel of that. I think my skin did look and feel pretty nice using it though. It is not likely I will repurchase this soley because it is about 70 USD. That to me is just too high for a moisturizer, if you have the extra money and wanna try it, it is nice, I just can't justify that price tag for myself.

Neutrogena Invisible Daily Defense Sunscreen Review

Hey guys!! So I have been searching for a daily sunscreen for my body that wouldn't be greasy or get on my clothes or other things. This had good reviews so I decided to try this one. I absolutely love this one for a daily sunscreen. A little goes a decent ways with this and it blends into the skin super well. It is slightly sticky at first but after a few minutes this dries down so you can barely notice it. I went for the 60+ because I burn so easily (pale girl problems) and it works great, I even tested it outside for a couple hours and it did great, no burns at all. It also smells really nice in my opinion. My only issue is it is between $12-$16 USD for what I feel like isn't a ton product but that being said it works so well I will continue to purchase it because I know it is better for my skin to use it. It is for sure my favorite that I have tried.
