Kauai Color Corrector

I went to bed way too late last night like 2 a.m. late how to wake up at 7:45 to make the kids breakfast I got my daughter ready for virtual learning but my under eyes are looking rough enter color corrector this is Kawaii from Durham Beauty and this is hands-down my favorite under eye corrector is specially for days like this what I love most about it is that has skin care ingredients in it that's going to help improve the skin texture over time and I just mix in a little bit with my concealer blend it in and it's magic it's very pigmented so you only need a tiny amount it's a peachy tan so that's going to neutralize blue underneath your eyes just going to mix it in with a little bit of concealer look at this.

for my complexion today I'm just using a little bit of color corrector underneath a light layer of foundation the color corrector I'm using is from Journey it's Kawaii it's formulated for the light to medium skin tones very peachy color corrector great to neutralize any bluetones or spider veins and then just going over it with you know a light layer of my bite Beauty changemaker supercharged micellar foundation and I'm just applying this with my fingertips and blending itvery gently I already did the side of my face so I'm just balancing out the side of my face I like this color corrector because it doesn't necessarily brighten my under eyes but it does neutralize the darkness which is exactly what I want for an everyday life

HD Skin Undetectable Longwear Foundation

I'm going to be doing a review of the Make Up For Ever HD skin foundation so I'm wearing it on this side of my face one size on the side of my face and overall it's a beautiful beautiful Foundation like it where is Super Bowl I wore it all day yesterday I was working and just like you know like to do some oils and all that jazz and it works super wild the only thing is that this shade range is just really really warm for me so I know I was gifted this product and I am so grateful to receive it I did not expect to receive this product at all but the shape Rings is just a little more for my olive skin tone matching other people and I see that they have a warm golden undertone this is definitely a foundation I would use on other people with the appropriate you know undertone skin but I just wouldn't use it on me but I'll keep using it because I have it

sojourn is a Indy brand that has recently partnered with super great app I think they're really really cool new inspiring company the marketing and the packaging is beautiful like both of these came in boxes just like filled with potpourri it was very cute although I wouldn't maybe like if they made the Caps different color is just so I could tell more easily like which one was the purple one and which one was the green one they are a little bit expensive so 1 to retails for like $40 if you're just like a normal consumer so it's a lot of money but if you love this product a little bit does go a really long way so I use the Macho on the most and it's like a pretty dramatic green color so at first I was worried that I just like couldn't make it work for my skin tone I wasn't sure how I would use it but lately I've been using it a lot as something that I put on before my foundation so where I have extra redness I'll blend this in and then I can use a lot less product which is really really nice

so I have the Masha and hibiscus seaweed color corrector by gern Beauty this is a super hero award a while ago and I forgot to do an unboxing of it but the packaging for it was absolutely stunning like I felt high class and Rich unboxing it was okay but anyway my face is extremely extremely red right now I done a couple masks but I have already corrected the side of my face and I feel like you can tell a pretty big difference between the side of my face which I haven't bonded it out yet and the side of my face with the redness and this is how it looks completely Blended out I'm kind of obsessed with it I've used it every day since I've gotten it lasting a really long time that's a really thick consistency I love it 10 out of 10 wonderful product thing

so I just got another package in the mail thank you super Grande thank you to everyone making possible for this to be our it's the turn correctly and perfect color corrector in the Alpenglow one and I never try to color corrector before and I just want to try it sometime maybe like I have put it under my foundation and stuff so thank you super good for this product and the packaging was so cute and Lucy and the beginning of the video the packaging is so adorable I wasn't expecting that type of packaging was expecting you to call me like this so I will try this out when I let you guys know how it performs thank you super great

Coverage is on top of that

is the packaging for the Geron color corrector I got the shade matcha for redness correction and from what I've heard the packaging quick special so I wanted to open it up and do a little unboxing you open it up and there's this really nice packaging details they have a little note here that kind of talks about how the company started it's signed by the founders which is really cool I'm just a really nice Personal Touch and then it has these beautiful dried flowers all on the insidethere I mean this is so unique and I'm totally going to repurpose he's somehow so matcha helps kind of cracked acne spots but also helps dry them out with skin care ingredients so it's kind of a two-in-one product thank you super great and thank you

see how is that this in the mail today so actually the official super great but I will not be reviewing it because it's a gift I got it for my mom as a gift for her birthday so will not be reviewing it but I just wanted to show you guys what time is inside sometimes it's a little now and here right now and Kung Fu beautiful dry fire Prince real name coach before tractor so yeah this is my mom has her birthday
