10-Second Liquid Eyeshadow

my next project going to review psychosis 10-second eyeshadow and Advil shade Fahrenheit I picked the shade because this like purply pink color usually looks good against my brown eyes I was like the easiest liquid Shadow I've ever used I feel like if you're someone that likes to play with makeup but doesn't have a lot of time or doesn't want to fuss around with blending and all that this is like the perfect eyeshadow formula for you like I have a smokey eye in it Blow really took just a few seconds are you hope they make more shades I'm sure they won't but it'd be cool to have like a green or something like a deep red just some other things cuz this is a really great product

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

Weightless Lip Color Lipstick

so the nexico says product that I'm going to review is there a waitlist look color of the shade on Dunn and it's like a kind of Pinky amavi shade so I call the other coast Office Products this has a lot of different skin care ingredients to help moisturize the lips sometimes I like to play it looks like I might cheeks and blend it out just as high everything together dissociate I don't normally wear but I really like it and also feels really good on my lips like and it smells so good like it has cocoa seed butter shea butter and mango seed butter and a bunch of other things I feel like I can definitely smell that shea butter it's a super beautiful formula and I highly recommend

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

so I just received one of my super great rewards it was a star space that matches everything about this packaging is so beautiful and here are the little zit patches in this is so sturdy and like just so cute like any open it up and there's a lot of these little strips with the zit stickers on there which is really nice it's not just like it might be a trial size but to me this is a lot of product so think it's super great I can't wait to try this out

Color

Mattemoiselle Plush Matte Lipstick

and the last step in Touching up is going to be at my lip I actually went in with the unveil from Fenty and up to no good lipsticks and this is a really nice combo for something new but not too fleshy so you don't look washed out and the really comfortable for all day neither of them are too thick or dry so it's a nice enough switch up Liquid lipsticks can be really heavy and Flaky and is very lightweight I will say don't love the packaging I wish it was like why your traditional lipstick because their other that packaging is so pretty but I definitely recommend if you want something lightweight easy to reapply

so I'm doing this cosas en 10-second eyeshadow have it in a purple this is so cool cuz it obviously looks like a lip color and it comes out like this but it is an eyeshadow and so I just put it on like this and it comes on wet and it kind of spread it around with my finger and it dries and like a mat Forum it's really awesome it's not like insane colored I really like that it's pretty subtle and it's not like incredibly flashy but it just as a little pop of color and literally in like 10 seconds guys so you just want to make sure that your eyelid not closed as it's drying cuz you can't get creases and such and you really don't need too much I really put too much on the side so that the weather is going to be a lot darker obviously the more you put on too so you can make it like lighter or darker and you can do

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

hi everybody so today I'm reviewing the closest Tropical a equinox blush / bronzer and highlight Duo I got this a couple weeks ago and I've pretty much applied it everywhere that I want to apply so I have the bronzer shade that I actually use pretty much as a blush on my cheeks and on my eyelids and Beyond highlight what you can see it's really popping is on my cheek runs here and then brow bone and then also in here and I am just so in love with pretty much everything about this product It Feels So creamy like it melts to the touch but then drive down on your face the packaging feels very luxurious and it just feels very high quality

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

cosas cream color and light palette in Tropic Equinox I wasn't going to mention this until I actually had more time to play around with it but just with one use I have to mention that because I freaking love it I love the packaging and their whole aesthetic I love is like a two-in-one compact has a mirror and this is a clean brand its cruelty free as well it has like jojoba oil Moringa oil just a lot of good stuff and this is just not doing these Shades any Justice Just stunning I applied this in the morning so it like 7:30 a.m. it is now 5 here in Hawaii and look at thatmore so nicely it just plain so seamlessly and it just really melt into the skin before you just look at that even on my fingers you can tell it just melts hi Bubba.

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

so the good people at super great sent me the closest lip oil and Jellyfish I'm not going to lie at first I was like oh cool like it's like a lip oil like cool my lips were wrecked cuz I'm breastfeeding mom gay and it rips your lips apart and to dry nothingness I use this once the next day my lips are like gorgeous imma show you really I'm assuming just excited healthy and cute but it is super hydrating and it like brought my lips back so I'm a fan of this

so I've been seeing this a lot on Instagram and it's the closest 10-second eyeshadow and I have to say really works its it seems really watery but the color is pretty hoe cake and it drives fairly quickly so I'm going to show you how see you in just like swiping it on and it's like a complete eyeshadow look without having to do much so I really like that it's so natural looking at it still very opaque so I would agree that this lives up to its 10-second eyeshadow name

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

An ultra-blendable powder blush and highlighter palette in versatile duos of balancing, brightening, foolproof, clean, and skin-cushioning formulas.

Color & Light: Pressed Powder Blush & Highlighter Duo

okay so the thing about blush is that once you find a formula that you like your tools are equally if not potentially more important than that especially if you're using a brush my favorite blush brush because the density of the bristles and the texture of them it just picks up powder really well and distributes it without getting all streaky and weird which you be surprised so the other thing about blush that seems to Spook everyone is placement because everyone's faces are different so obviously there's no true one way too you know that I'm blush which is why we're doing this coming up a little bit higher on the cheekbones up here I know you haven't we are pushing I love blush I think it really pulls the whole look together

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

Tinted Face Oil

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

closest 10-second eyeshadow for finally picked up the closest 10 seconds liquid eyeshadow I got the shape Globe it's one of their more natural Shades but they do have lots of fun colorful like a purple shade I really want to try that one it's hard to say macaron but it is super liquidy so like you do have to shake it up pretty good for you use it but I supplied it I'll show you in Better Living in just a minute but it is super lightweight it's super blendable but as soon as like a try sound like it's not moving it's not going to budge perfect for like everyday you can get better here I just doing a quick so I didn't put concealer down on my eyelids I definitely do if I'm like wearing it out but I don't show you a quick I like to like Pat it with my ring finger and then just blend it up a little bit with a gum a big fluffy brush

possess 8muse color and light cream palette looks it's pretty often perfect the texture the consistency is just stunning are really Blends in well and for me this is like that perfect pink color I feel like this would look great on a lot of skin tones cuz it has quite a bit of pigment to it and again I'm just pressing it in I'm not being too precious about it the point here is to have a pretty like natural looking flush and here's a look at the highlighter

so I look pretty crazy, here's one that I wanted to Super quickly review this cuz us it's a cream Contour it's called color light cream and Helios so I did a review already on the Shrek blush and it's gorgeous and I love it and it's the perfect like sunburned color but it's just really finicky to work with so I thought let me pull this out because the color is almost the sameCNN that same kind of like sunburned color and this formula just fantastically it works so well with your makeup and I did this is my fingers and I love it I feel like you can build it up if you have to and it's just it's beautiful I think they're on sale right now too so if you've been wanting one I love them

so I wanted to talk about two gorgeous lip oil products that I've received over the past few months from super great as rewards so these are older rewards but that means I've had a lot of time to kind of test them and try them out I'm so I wanted to share my thoughts so the first one I want to chat about is the cosas what lip oil in the shade jellyfish this is actually my first product that I've ever tried from cosas so it's really exciting I think this packaging is really really really pretty and the scent of this is awesome it smells it literally smells like a creamsicle it's so good the glass itself I think it really is more of a gloss than an oiled both of these kind of our and I think that live oil is a little bit more of a marketing term than anything really unique I do not think that there are better lip glosses out he therefore cheaper like this one cost $27 so I would not urge you to run and pick it up but I have enjoyed trying
