Biore Baking Soda Skincare Review - Influenster

I received these products from Influenster to review. You can sign up using my referral link if you want to receive awesome products to review as well - for free! 

I absolutely LOVE this product. I use it after I remove my makeup daily. It applies smoothly and very gently but is very efficient. It makes your skin feel renewed. Your pores look instantly smaller and better, while creating a smooth feel. I have combination, sensitive, acne prone skin and this hasn't made any of my problems worse. It doesn't make my skin drier or more oily, and I haven't broken out! I seriously can't recommend this enough, I'm even going to get my boyfriend using it! 

This product is very innovative and new to me. I have never come across anything like this! I like the thought and the idea behind it a lot. I like the actual product too, but there are a few things I don't prefer. The scent is unexplainable to me but definitely not good. It's not overpowering though, so that's good! The other thing is that it's difficult to get the right amount of product. You pour out the baking soda and add water, but unfortunately there's a lot of room for error in that process. I often feel like I'm wasting product. Aside from those two things, I really enjoy this as well! It's gentle enough for every day use and it feels like it transforms your skin after just one use! I recommend this as well! 

These products are amazing on their own but are amplified when used together! You definitely don't need both but if you want your skin to be at it's best, I would splurge for both!

Nude Liquid Lipstick Swatches (Pale Skin)

L-R
My absolute favourite, ride or die is Colourpop's Midi. I want this colour just a shade lighter and that would be my perfect nude. All of these are really nice formulas and they're beautiful colours.

Tarte Tartelette In Bloom Swatches

Okay, so I am in love with this palette. The lighting in my house is awful, so let me get into the swatches.

Charmer and Flower Child barely show up on my fair skin, but they swatched nicely. 

Rocker and Firecracker are AMAZING. Buy this palette just for those. They are SO pigmented and beautiful. 

Funny Girl is like everyone says... it's not pigmented at all. 

Overall, I would recommend this for sure. The packaging is STUNNING

My First Ipsy Bag! January 2016

I like this eyeliner because the colour is so unique - like a green gold. I like the pigment, it goes on smooth and it lasts all day. I'm so glad I got this and I would recommend it for sure.
Admittedly, eyeshadows are my weakness. Receiving this was so exciting. The colour is stunning and the formula is smooth. It isn't THAT pigmented though, it's more like a wash of colour or a sheen. Perfect for a natural makeup day!
First of all, worst attempt at an eyebrow - ever. The Ofra Universal Eyebrow pencil doesn't make sense to me because there is no way this is universal. I JUST made it work because I have dark hair but light brows. Blonde ladies probably couldn't use this. The pencil is very creamy and eyeliner shaped so it's the most different brow product I've used. I like it but I won't be replacing my Anastasia Brow Wiz. 
I love this Beau Gachis brush (I don't know how to do the accent). It's dense so it's very controlled. I really, really like this. I don't even know what else to say. 

I also got the Aveeno lotion but I already have it in my work vest because it's so perfect! 


This is my attempt at making a look on my hand using these products. I love how they all go together so well! 

Too Faced Le Grand Palais Swatches

Obviously the star of the show is Wish List. That shadow is so extremely stunning and so pigmented and blendable it should be sold on its own. There is some fallout on the glittery shadows but they wipe away easily. The four glitter shadows at the end are the worst of the palette, in particular Midnight in Paris. They are essentially glitter that has fallout and that's it. I LOVE this palette though! It's so beautiful and 90% of the shadows are perfect.
