Revealer Super Creamy + Brightening Concealer

I also picked up this close as revealer concealer in the shade 06 medium Olive I needed this because I saw Brave of you if you're on super great and this place is just not good for me financially I will say that the formula of this concealer is absolutely amazing I don't even use a brush with it I just kind of tap it in with my finger it's really hard to do with these nasty clothes that I'm wearing for no reason so let me show this to up close I have it underneath this I not under this I atleast beautifully there it doesn't have a whole ton of coverage I'd say about medium coverage but it doesn't need all that pigment because the formula itself is very brightening like it reflects light in the most beautiful way it's do we it's juicy it doesn't settle in my fine lines it's just everything that I want

okay this is the new concealer from kosis and like everything else goes as it is amazing so they put Skin Care in the concealer so you're treating it you're treating your skin as you wear concealer it has it has hyaluronic acid to moisturize it has peptides which are going to help to build up more collagen in your skin and as for the texture it's very smooth and creamy and like malleable it's not a dense matte concealer it more like imitates the texture of skinthis is tell me three that I'm using it's a little late for me which I really like cuz it brightens if you want to see more I have a whole YouTube video on it

Wet Lip Oil Plumping Treatment Gloss

closest wet lip oil gloss the color Malibu if you like lip gloss run don't walk to go get this it's so good it's unlike lip glosses that just sit on top of your lip this one actually penetrates it's a treatment which means that it's actually going to make your lips softer and what's really nice about this is that as it wears off it leaves the pigment so it ends up looking like a bit of a tent on your lips

ko-sa's tinted face oil I want to review this Foundation because I feel like it's so different from anything else on the market so you're just going to shake it really well I'm using two tones so I have a bit of Tanner on my body right now so that's why I mix in some of the four let me use mostly 3 and be careful cuz it comes out really really quickly and I like to apply this one with my hands because it's an oil you can really press it into your skin and it just totally disappears if you want to see more on this I have a whole YouTube video that I made a few months ago so go find that but this is just perfect for anyone who wants a very sheer almost invisible coverage and it's kind of your skin care at the same time because the nourishing oil

so I just got this in the mail a few days ago I'm using shade 7 in the tinted face oil it's supposed to be so I'm kind of curious to see how this works so it's apparently to 2/4 drop so I'm just going to start with three it's pretty liquidy easy remove the shade sings actually pretty perfect for Macy's so I just blended with my hands cuz I'm not really going for heavy coverage since I'm going to be inside nose for the day but a Tiffany find it applies very much like a face oil it definitely seems to be the skin really good if you're looking for your skin but better but I think it's a pretty good match if you are looking for a color match at C7 if you're close to my complexion I do wish the shape reading deeper but I think it's a good start. So let me know if you try

they all say just got to Kostas revealer concealer and shade 5 and I'm just going to use that to get rid of these eye bags so I finished bonding with my finger and I have to say it's one of my favorites I actually used it for the first time yesterday but I really enjoy the texture I love that it's kind of still your skin but neutral I got a lighter shade so it's a little bit my highlighted but because my chest is a lot lighter than my cheeks I wanted something that would kind of highlight and match the rest of my body so definitely good choice if you like something creamy really wonderful some nice skin care benefits so give it a try if you haven't

hey y'all so I already did a review on this but I got a new shade cuz I felt like five was a little light so I went for shade 6 so I'm going to show you how I use it so as you can see very quickly it kind of Blends out gives you a nice bit of coverage but also gives you a very natural kind of like healthy Sheen I used to base of the Ilya super 10 SPF and that's kind of what I used to just do my daily face hope you guys like it and let me know if you found your mention the closest trees yet

I don't really know what happened to my last video but my draft card kind of scrambling but I didn't want to delete it because I have a lot to say about this concealer first of all this is probably the first time I've used a concealer and not felt like I had to layer on something else as someone with an Asian skin complexion that's pretty rare like him usually mixing things and doing a bunch of color correcting and stuff even though this products works for me perfectly and it's kind of like a first for me I cannot ignore the fact that there's only 10 shades of this concealer is only 10 shades of their tinted face oil and that needs to change it didn't buy these products with the knowledge of there being some discussion about shade inclusion but I feel like everyone is better this community and the selection I feel like I need to speak up about it

I want to talk about a product that I've been using literally every day for the last couple weeks and it is the coast has revealed a concealer and I have the shade 7 and 6 but if I do something about the shape 7 is that its watches very light on me but it's the perfect kind of like evening out my skin tone type of shade and then six they actually give to me it's a little too late so I just use it to Brighton around the areas I want to Brighton on my face there so hydrating but I feel like they should make like a foundation version of this cuz I swear I'll just wear this by itself without skin tag or foundation and I forget that I'm not wearing Foundation at all plus they have skin care ingredients to help hydrate your under eyes and it's literally perfect go get it

hey so I have some products Franco says that I want to try for the first time on here so I first product is the cosas Vila concealer and I got the shade 7 so the thing about the politics is that they have skin care benefits in their makeup so you're kind of getting like a mess of both for the time sick of this video I'll just say that there are six ingredients in here to help clogged brighten and awaken the under eyes which I think is pretty cool cuz clearly I need some of thatthus what it looks like they definitely describe the shade as deep tan with neutral undertones for the time sick of this video I'll just say that there are six ingredients in here they definitely describe the shade as deep tan with neutral undertones but on me it looks

talk about the Cossacks concealer already applied it underneath my eyes town if you can tell but it's it's been difference and today we're going to try to play it on this something to cover up so how it comes is that serve regular concealer stick yeah take it out unless he has a pliant like right over here I like to see five fingers my ring finger and kind of debit you can tell that it's like the consistency is thick and you can see it blending and working its way through doesn't cover up scars officeally for an organic beauty product this is pretty good I would definitely recommend it and I like it

hey guys so today I wanted to share one of my new favorite face products which is the closest tinted face oil which I'm actually wearing right now really nice and really easy to use I use my fingers to one day and it gives me really nice coverage I'm not wearing any concealer it's just this it's not a full coverage Foundation obviously cuz it is a tinted face oil so I really have to shake this up but it's really nice for those barely-there days you're kind of just running errands or stuck in quarantine but yeah it's actually really nice I really like it and the finish on my skin is super nice as well as you can tell

LipFuel Hyaluronic Lip Balm

hi guys I had got this by Ray Charles Xavier son got this from super late as a reward and I literally was this everyday the run is a little thing because they use it over my lipstick sometimes and this is so nice and everything and it stays on the lips all day and look at the amount of it adds like instantlyI even put this under like a lot of matte lipstick but it's a very very pretty like I love it I totally recommend that you buy this

see all today I want to show you guys the coast of sport I have it down as my Holy Grail because it really is I got it in the Sephora clean favorites package and this was one of the items I was looking forward to this came in and Paul's so let me just show you guys honestly I use it like pretty much every day it was great like her work at home cuz it's a really nice mlbb my lips but better shade you see that I love Coastal Sport fuel so much that I even got another one that I haven't opened yet and this one is a clear one just because when I run out of this one like this would be great for like the winter season it juicy it snowed it's so let me show you yeah

this is cosas reviewer concealer in the shade 07 and I'm going to do a little finger painting Fun Size for teacher. And as you can see applying at the warmth of your hands let's the creamy formula milk into your skin will naturally so I just look a little bit more even though it but like if my skin not compare at all I love this method

so I've been using D cause us with boil for like a week now and I thought I'd give you my thoughts it's definitely comfortable I think it looks best just when you can have catnip the sheen accentuated on their lips I think it's really nice and the hydration feels really substantial without it being you know too creamy where feels like it's going to come off but I know the price is like 20 + which is a little steep for something this super tiny like it's tiny and I feel like I use them as product going to be gone in no time so that's the only thing that has me conflicted I'm a little indifferent any hydrating product will do but I'd say on the scale was like the spectrum of all hydrating lip products it is nice

last but certainly not least for my classic glossy lip I'm going to use the closest wet lip oil today I'm using the shade I'm using the shape jellyfish one layer is not enough for gloss this smells so good oh yeah why they're it on girls I'm going in for a fifth player okay okay sorry I've got to go that was Lisa love from Teen Vogue calling they want to do an editorial on 16 year old girls and I'm the star

ko-sa's lip oil in the shade jellyfish okay guys I seriously just open this for my super great package and I tried it and I am obsessed it has a fluffy doe foot applicator and the product smells like cake pops honestly I applied it to my lips already and to me this feels more like a ChapStick rather than a lip gloss so it's it's really lightly it still gives you hydration and that glossy look but it's not sticky at all thank you so much super great for this amazing reward I can't wait to try the other lip oil psychosis

finally pulling my Hall New Year's Eve look together and I'm using closest white liver oil in jellyfish I know there are way more in-depth reviews on this product in particular but what I like about this I know that there is some nursing ingredients in this product but what I like about this is that I like to use this as a finisher for my list it's also a nice price for the lips

hey super grade is Rachel from ivywild beauty talking about the closest tinted face oil which I have on this side of my face it basically looks like I have a filter on one side and the reason I love this product is it skin care first so it's packed with antioxidants which you're going to protect your collagen and elastin from daily UV exposure and oxidation and pollution the things that really age your skin my tips for application exfoliate a few times a week at night start with a nice tinted mineral SPF and then shake shake shake do a couple drops and buff it into your skin with a nice foundation brush this is going to help build up coverage and give you a nice smooth even finish now if you skewer oily just finished with a light dusting of a translucent finishing powder areas where you get shinies do for me that's my T-Zone you don't need to over powder because there's some already mixed in with the formula

but I've guys I'm reviewing kosis has new wet lip oil if you haven't already heard lip oil is the new lip gloss so you guys can redeem this tonight 7 p.m. EST and this is the product it's in the shade jellyfish so it's clear and I have to tell you guys I probably never owned a lip gloss that smells so good like it smells like vanilla citrusy like it's really nice this is what it looks like the packaging is also really sort of interesting if you're familiar with this brand looks really different the cap is like a pale blue and it's Ridge so I'm excited to hear what you guys think

it's really kind of tiny and I guess it does the job but I'm just used to products like in Beauty with a big fat alligator that makes it easy to go once white however the formula is incredible not goofy at all and it kind of has like a slight Mandarin vanilla set also how cute is thisalso this is a shade in jellyfish which looks kind of Corley the goes on completely clear 10 out of 10 for me

Chris S revealer concealer as one of my favorites all over face complexion products cuz you can just do a spot coverage and it kind of just moved everything else and it looks just like your sick so that was just the one dip I'll be up here and I just put it on my under eyes or my nose any weird pigmentation spots blended with a pocket brush and look at that survived Improvement everything even and glowing and Dewey and it doesn't feel like I'm wearing what make a call
