MISSHA Radiance Perfect Fit Cushion SPF50 PA+++19 IvoryI found a cushion foundation with a shade that matches me. It's similar to the discontinued Missha's BB cream RX in terms of shade (#17). Coverage is about medium with a small amount on the sponge ...
Bourjois Twist Up Multiplied Lashes Mascara
This is one of those mascaras that has a changing brush, so you in a way get two different mascaras in one. There are several versions of these Twist Up mascaras, I believe there are four, or at least that many. It's a regular formula that doesn't hold...
ORIFLAME The One Smart Sync Lipstick
These are the latest The One lipsticks by Oriflame - well they were when I got them months ago. I had a couple of The One formulas and both impressed me, especially the Unlimited Ultra Fix lipsticks, which up until last year where my favourites (they w...

ESSENCE Bright Eyes! Under Eye StickInitially I wasn't that impressed by this, mostly because I wasn't sure it does anything, but once I made pictures/videos for review I saw that it brightens the area up nicely. It's a very pale pink shade and that su...
Revlon Colorstay Matte Lite Crayons
ColorStay Matte Lite Crayon boast with a claim that they are 30% lighter than your average lipstick and that they are so lightweight you'll forget they're on. I'd say their main advantage is precision and great colour payoff, while the formula may be l...
Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum (2023 version)
Bourjois had a Healthy Mix Serum foundation before, which it was amazing and I used it for years. Their Healthy Mix Foundation went through many changes - years back they reformulated it in a way that there was no difference between the Foundation and ...

CATRICE Under Eye Brightener Instant Awake010 Light RoseBoth Essence and Catrice launched under eye brighteners or colour correctors in the last year, but they are quite different. I got both to compare.Catrice's version, which exists in two shades and...
