Introduction
I have recently been testing out a range of products and I am excited to share my thoughts on some of them. While I have previously mentioned some of these products in my First Impressions videos, there are a few that I haven’t discussed yet. I have been testing them behind the scenes and I am eager to share my thoughts with you all.
When it comes to finding the perfect brow gel, it can often be a struggle to balance good formulation with the right amount of tint. Many tinted brow gels end up being too liquidy, resulting in messy application. However, Essence has come up with a solution in their Thick & Well Fixing Bra Mascara. In this article, we will explore the benefits and effectiveness of this product.
Update on My Favorite Products
Time Stamps for Easy Navigation
As always, I like to provide time stamps in my videos for easy navigation. I find that time stamps are helpful for viewers who want to skip to specific sections. In this article, you will find chapter markers below for each product category. Feel free to jump to any section that interests you.
Foundation: A New Find
One of the products I have been using recently is a new foundation. Today, I am wearing a mix of two foundations, with one of them being from a brand called Key Soul Care. This makeup brand is a partnership with elf and is curated by Alicia Keys. I have been intrigued by this brand, although I must admit that not everything they offer has impressed me. The foundation I am wearing is called “Skin Two-in-One Concealer Plus Tint.” Despite the name suggesting that it can be used as both a skin tint and a concealer, I disagree with this claim.
Skincare: A Game-Changer
Moving on to skincare, there is one product that has caught my attention and has become a game-changer for me. This product, called “Soul Care,” is also from the Key Soul Care range. It is a skincare product that has been designed to provide nourishment and hydration to the skin. I have been using it for a few weeks now, and I must say that it has made a noticeable difference in the overall texture and appearance of my skin. I highly recommend giving it a try if you are looking for an effective skincare product.
Makeup: A Surprising Discovery
In terms of makeup, there is one product that has surprised me with its quality and performance. This product, which I discovered during my testing phase, is a lipstick from a lesser-known brand. The shade I am currently obsessed with is a bold red color that adds a pop of vibrancy to my makeup looks. The formula is long-lasting and comfortable to wear, making it a stand-out product in my collection. I am excited to continue exploring more products from this brand.
The Sheer Coverage of the Skin Tint
The first thing to note about this product is that it is a skin tint, not a concealer. Those hoping for a two-in-one product may be disappointed, as the coverage level of this tint is extremely sheer. It does not effectively conceal any imperfections. However, if you are more interested in a light coverage product that enhances your skin, you may enjoy it.
The Doe Foot Applicator
One unique feature of this product is its doe foot applicator. Some people may love it, while others may not be fans. Personally, I find it convenient and easy to use. The shape of the applicator, with its pretty pointy tip, differs from the traditional doe foot shape. It allows for precise application, which can be beneficial when using a sheer product like this.
The Consistency and Texture
The consistency of this skin tint is very thin, almost watery. It has a runny texture, which may not be appealing to everyone. With just a small amount of product, you will achieve a sheer coverage. If you apply more, you may get a light, at most, light-medium coverage. However, it does not reach the level of medium coverage. Despite this, I personally find the thin consistency of the product quite pleasant.
The Glowy Finish
The finish of this skin tint is very glowy. While some may love this effect, I am not always a fan. Many glowy skin tints tend to make the skin look oily or overly shiny. However, this particular product manages to create a natural and healthy glow. It adds radiance to the skin without looking too heavy or greasy.
Choosing the Right Product for a Natural Glow
Many people desire that perfect luminous and natural look on their skin. However, finding a product that achieves this can be quite challenging. Oftentimes, makeup products can leave the skin looking greasy and artificial. But fear not, as there is a solution that might just work for you.
Achieving a Luminous Finish
One product that has been receiving rave reviews is able to deliver the desired glow without looking greasy. It has a texture that seamlessly blends into the skin, giving it a natural appearance. The luminosity it provides is unparalleled, making it a must-have for those who want to achieve a radiant complexion.
Durability in Different Weather Conditions
Even in the middle of summer, when temperatures reach scorching levels, this product manages to hold up well. Despite the high humidity and heat, the glow still shines through. This is particularly impressive for those with dry skin, who often struggle to maintain a fresh and radiant look.
Not Suitable for Oily Skin
While this product works wonders for those with dry skin, it may not be the best option for those with oily skin. The added glow might only enhance the oiliness and make the skin appear even more slick. However, for those with drier skin types, this product is definitely worth a try.
The Perfect Combination
To further enhance the finish, a great tip is to mix this product with a more matte foundation. By blending the two together, you can achieve a perfect balance between luminosity and coverage. This combination creates a flawless complexion that looks natural yet polished.
Comparing Lip Balms
Moving on to lip care, let’s discuss two different lip balms that come at varying price points. Both of these options are highly recommended and provide excellent results.
Investing in Quality
The first lip balm is a high-end option that may be a bit pricey. However, it is well worth the investment, as it delivers superior hydration and leaves the lips feeling soft and nourished. This luxurious lip balm is a perfect treat for those who want to indulge in a little bit of self-care.
An Affordable Alternative
If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option, there is another lip balm that also performs exceptionally well. This affordable alternative provides long-lasting moisture and protects the lips from drying out. It is a great choice for everyday use and won’t break the bank.
Finding the right products for a natural glow and nourished lips can be a game-changer for your overall look. Investing in a luminous finish that suits your skin type and experimenting with different combinations can elevate your makeup routine. Whether you choose to splurge on a high-end lip balm or opt for a more affordable alternative, taking care of your skin and lips will always be worth it.
The Plum Plump Hydrating Lip Gloss Balm: A Luxurious Splurge Worth Trying
The Packaging
The Plum Plump Hydrating Lip Gloss Balm, part of the Plum Plump line by glow recipe, comes in an adorable little jar. As expected from glow recipe, the packaging is cute and eye-catching. While the packaging alone won’t determine the quality of a product, this lip balm sets the tone for the luxurious experience it offers.
Luxurious Hydration
If you’re in the mood to splurge on a lip balm that feels nice and provides intense hydration, The Plum Plump Hydrating Lip Gloss Balm might just be the perfect fit. While it’s true that you don’t necessarily need to spend this much on an overnight lip balm, sometimes treating yourself to something indulgent can make all the difference.
A Multifunctional Product
This lip balm is not only suitable for overnight use as a lip mask, but it can also be worn during the day for a glossy effect. Its hydrating formula doesn’t feel heavy or waxy like some lip balms tend to be. Instead, it sits lightly on the lips, giving them a non-sticky lip gloss-like appearance. If you’re looking for a product that offers both hydration and a touch of glam, this lip balm delivers.
Comparable to Non-Sticky Lip Gloss
The texture of The Plum Plump Hydrating Lip Gloss Balm is comparable to that of non-sticky lip gloss or even a thinner version of petroleum jelly. Its intense hydration power keeps your lips moisturized throughout the day, without any uncomfortable heaviness. If you prefer a glossy look without the sticky feel, this lip balm may be just what you’re looking for.
A Splurge Worth Considering
While I acknowledge that this lip balm may be considered a splurge for some, I can confidently say that the quality and luxurious experience it provides make it worth considering. If you’re not inclined to invest in an expensive overnight lip mask, I completely understand. However, for those willing to indulge, The Plum Plump Hydrating Lip Gloss Balm definitely delivers on its promises.
The Plum Plump Hydrating Lip Gloss Balm by glow recipe is a luxurious product that offers intense hydration and a glossy effect. While it may not be a necessity, it can be a delightful addition to your skincare routine. Whether you choose to splurge on it or not, this lip balm provides a high-quality formula that leaves your lips feeling pampered and moisturized.
New Lip Balm from Elf
Elf has recently released a new lip balm, called Squeeze Me Lip Balm, which comes in a variety of shades and offers a subtle tint. While it is not a dupe or alternative to any specific product, it is a hydrating lip product that can be a budget-friendly choice. It is interesting to note that Elf has launched this product without the intention of duplicating another brand. Let’s take a closer look and see how it performs.
Texture and Application
The Squeeze Me Lip Balm has a slightly waxy feel compared to the glow recipe. It is thicker in consistency, which makes it a bit challenging to push the product out of the tube. You need to apply a good amount of pressure to get the desired amount of lip balm. This may be reminiscent of Elf’s discontinued Ride or Die lip balms, which had a similar texture. Despite this minor inconvenience, the product itself is worth the effort.
The Subtle Tint
One of the standout features of this lip balm is its subtle tint. It adds a hint of color to your lips without appearing too heavy or overwhelming. This makes it perfect for those “no makeup makeup” days when you want a natural and effortless look. The shade I tried, Strawberry, has a beautiful and delicate tint that enhances the lips in a subtle and sophisticated way.
A Affordable Option
For those who prefer drugstore products, the Squeeze Me Lip Balm is an excellent option. It provides adequate hydration and a touch of color at an affordable price point. Elf has managed to create a budget-friendly lip balm without compromising on quality.
An In-Depth Review of Essence Thick & Well Fixing Bra Mascara
Impressive Pigmentation
One of the standout features of the Essence Thick & Well Fixing Bra Mascara is its impressive pigmentation. The mascara leaves a subtle tint in the brows, enhancing their appearance without overpowering them. This is particularly advantageous for those who prefer a more natural look.
The Perfect Consistency
Unlike other tinted brow gels on the market, the Essence Thick & Well Fixing Bra Mascara has the perfect consistency to adhere to the brows without becoming too watery. This eliminates the risk of the gel spilling onto the skin and causing unwanted smudges. The formulation ensures precise application and eliminates the possibility of ending up with a messy, globby mess.
A Beautiful Shade Range
The Essence Thick & Well Fixing Bra Mascara is available in a variety of shades to suit different hair colors and preferences. One shade that stands out is the caramel blonde. This cool-toned, taupe shade is not only trendy but also complements a wide range of skin tones. It adds definition and depth to the brows, giving them a polished and put-together look.
The Impressive Brow Mascara
The name of this brow product may be misleading, but don’t let it fool you. Despite its unassuming name, I find this brow mascara to be quite nice. In fact, I would describe it as a true taupe shade that suits my preferences perfectly. However, there is one minor issue that I have with this product – its massive applicator.
A Need for a Smaller Spoolie
Upon using this brow mascara, I couldn’t help but notice the excessive size of its applicator. I believe that this product would have greatly benefited from a smaller spoolie. The wide and long applicator makes it a bit challenging to achieve precise and controlled application. Interestingly, many of my subscribers have also mentioned that the Nyx version of this brow product suffers from the same issue. Perhaps this is a common trend among such products. Despite this drawback, I must admit that even with the oversized applicator, I find it relatively easy to apply. Therefore, I would highly recommend this brow mascara.
A Stunning Collaboration Palette
Now, let’s shift gears and talk about a stunning palette that has caught my attention. The way this palette reflects light is absolutely incredible. This particular palette is a result of a collaboration between Angela Bright and Sigma, and I couldn’t contain my excitement when it was first launched. However, I must disclose that my opinions on this palette may be biased, as Angela happens to be a friend of mine. I have been aware of this palette for several months now, and my excitement has been ever-growing. Nevertheless, I believe it is important to share my thoughts with you, regardless of my personal connection.
The Biased Source
Since I am personally acquainted with Angela and had the opportunity to see this palette long before its release, my review may be subject to bias. However, I will do my best to provide an objective analysis of this product. I understand the importance of honesty when it comes to sharing my thoughts and recommendations, and I assure you that I will present an unbiased perspective on this collaboration palette.
The brow mascara mentioned earlier proves to be a worthy drugstore find, despite its oversized applicator. As for the collaboration palette, its stunning appearance and innovative design have left me in awe. While my personal connection may affect my opinion, I will strive to offer an unbiased take on the product. It’s important to consider multiple perspectives before making any purchasing decisions, and I hope this article has helped you gain a better understanding of these two beauty products.
Exploring Sigma’s New Palette: A Review
An Innovative Take on Packaging
Sigma has impressed with their latest palette release, showcasing a significant shift in their design approach. Unlike previous palettes that were bulky and inconvenient to carry, this new palette boasts a sleek and compact packaging. While there are pros and cons to consider, such as the absence of a brush, overall, the packaging is visually appealing and stands out among other palettes.
A Beautiful Range of Shades
One of the highlights of this new Sigma palette is the impressive range of shades it offers. For someone like me, who tends to stick to neutral tones, this collection ventures beyond my comfort zone. However, this willingness to step outside comfort zones has led to some stunning makeup looks.
Stepping Outside the Comfort Zone
Recently, I’ve found myself gravitating towards this palette on nights when I want to experiment with my makeup. Although not my typical choice, I have been pleasantly surprised by the bold and colorful options this palette presents. A recent play session with the palette resulted in two eye looks, one featuring green shades and the other showcasing purples. These vibrant looks truly pushed my boundaries and opened up a whole new world of creativity.
Breaking Free from Routine
As someone who often finds comfort in neutral shades, I must admit that I have been constantly reaching for the more daring colors within this Sigma palette. Even when creating more colorful looks, I find myself drawn to the versatility and versatility of this palette. It has truly expanded my horizons and encouraged me to step out of my makeup routine.
Sigma’s new palette has brought a refreshing change to their product lineup. The compact and stylish packaging, paired with a wide range of shades, encourages users to explore their creativity beyond their comfort zones. While it may not come with a brush, the overall quality and performance of this palette make it a valuable addition to any makeup collection. Whether you’re a fan of bold and colorful looks or simply someone looking to break free from routine, this palette is definitely worth trying out.
Discovering the Perfect Glitter Topper Shade: Champagne Problems
If you’re a fan of glittery nail polish shades, then you need to know about the incredible glitter topper called Champagne Problems. This shade is like no other and will instantly elevate your manicure game. Created by Angela, this palette is a must-have for those who love bold and colorful looks. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed.
A Disappointing Drugstore Mascara: Covergirl’s Lash Blast Cleantopia
Covergirl’s Lash Blast Cleantopia mascara has been the talk of the town, but unfortunately, it didn’t meet my expectations. As a long-time lover of the Lash Blast line, I was hoping for consistent quality. However, that’s not the case with this particular mascara. While some variations are great, others fall short.
A Minimal Look with Limited Results
Although I don’t despise the Lash Blast Cleantopia mascara, I find that it’s only suitable for those who prefer a very minimal look. This mascara doesn’t provide the desired impact for more dramatic looks. Even as someone who likes minimal makeup, I still find myself reaching for other mascaras instead of this one.
A Brown Shade That Falls Short
As a lover of brown mascaras, I was excited to try out the brown shade of the Lash Blast Cleantopia mascara. However, I want to warn my fellow brown mascara enthusiasts that this shade isn’t a true brown. It’s more of a muted shade that may not provide the depth and richness you desire.
While Champagne Problems is a stunning glitter topper shade that deserves all the praise, the Lash Blast Cleantopia mascara from Covergirl has left me wanting more. It’s essential to have realistic expectations when it comes to drugstore products, as not every item will meet our preferences. Nevertheless, it’s always exciting to discover new beauty products and share our experiences with others.
Is the Essence Mascara Worth the Hype?
When it comes to finding the perfect mascara, the search can be quite overwhelming. With so many options available in the market, it’s essential to weigh the pros and cons of each product. Today, we will be discussing the Essence mascara and giving an honest review of its performance.
The Shade and Brush
The Essence mascara comes in a shade that is not quite as dark black as expected. It has a hint of brown to it, which may not be everyone’s preference. The hourglass-shaped brush is equipped with natural bristles, providing ease of application and a precise coat to each lash.
The Formula
One drawback of this mascara is its formula. The consistency is quite wet, even after being open for some time. This wetness could potentially affect the mascara’s ability to hold a curl. If you curl your lashes with a mechanical eyelash curler before applying mascara, you may find that the curl disappears due to the liquidy formula.
While it’s not overly wet, it falls somewhere in between. To achieve a satisfactory curl, it is recommended to use a heated eyelash curler after applying the mascara. Unfortunately, this additional step can be inconvenient for those who prefer a simpler makeup routine.
Results and Impact
In terms of results, this mascara provides some volume and length to the lashes. However, it fails to deliver the desired lift that many mascara enthusiasts seek. If you prioritize lift and dramatic effects in your mascara, this product may not be the best choice for you.
While the Essence mascara is decent for a minimal formula, it doesn’t have the potential to be a life-changing product. It can enhance your lashes subtly, but it lacks the wow factor that would make it a standout among other mascaras in the market. Therefore, it’s not a mascara that I would go out of my way to recommend.
Essence’s Attempt to Match NYX
Lastly, let’s take a look at another product from Essence. The brand seems to have been attempting to replicate NYX with their eye tint liquid shadow. This particular product is called the Luminous eye tint liquid shadow.
While the name suggests a luminous finish, the actual outcome of this product is questionable. It may not live up to expectations, and its performance may fall short compared to NYX’s similar offering. Unfortunately, this product may not be the best choice for those seeking a high-quality liquid shadow.
Overall, Essence offers a range of affordable products, but it may be prudent to look at other options when it comes to mascara and liquid shadows. It’s always important to consider your personal preferences and needs when choosing makeup products, and sometimes, a bit of trial and error is necessary to find the perfect fit for you.
The Unique Sheerness of Candy Cloud Eyeshadow
Candy Cloud Eyeshadow has won the hearts of beauty enthusiasts with its unique light level of sheerness. Unlike other opaque pigmented eyeshadows, Candy Cloud has a special quality that allows the shadow underneath to subtly shift and transform. When applied directly onto the skin, it may appear underwhelming, but its true magic lies in its ability to enhance and amplify other eyeshadows.
Transforming Eyeshadows with Duo, Duochrome Finish
One of the remarkable qualities of Candy Cloud Eyeshadow is its duo, duochrome finish. When applied over different eyeshadow shades, it completely transforms them. Whether you layer it over a purple or a green, Candy Cloud brings out the true vibrancy and depth of the base shade. It intensifies purples or shifts greens, creating a stunning effect that elevates any eye look.
A Versatile and Affordable Option
Despite its affordable price, Candy Cloud Eyeshadow proves to be a versatile and useful product. While the specific shade discussed in this article may have its own unique qualities, it is safe to assume that all shades will offer different effects. If the shade discussed can already produce such impressive results, one can only imagine the endless possibilities with other colors. Candy Cloud Eyeshadow presents an affordable way to experiment and have fun with different eye looks.
Superior Formulation for Long-lasting Wear
One common issue with similar eyeshadow products, such as those from Nyx, is cracking, drying, and the need for layering. Fortunately, Candy Cloud Eyeshadow surpasses these concerns with its superior formulation. Not only does it sit better on the skin, but it also provides a longer-lasting finish. Say goodbye to the inconvenience of constant touch-ups and hello to a comfortable and impeccable eye makeup look.
Exploring the Merit Lip Oil
When it comes to lip products, the Merit lip oil is definitely worth mentioning. Available in various shades, I have personally tried the shade slick jelly, which is a sheer red. Let me tell you, it is absolutely beautiful! The glossy finish it provides truly enhances the appearance of the lips.
Luxurious Packaging
One thing that immediately caught my attention about this lip oil is the packaging. It exudes luxury and sophistication. In fact, I would dare to say that it is one of the most stunning packaging designs I have come across in quite some time. The attention to detail and overall aesthetic is truly commendable. Kudos to Merit for this amazing packaging!
A Disappointing Applicator
While the Merit lip oil has many positives, one aspect that let me down is the applicator. It is incredibly tiny, probably one of the smallest doe foot applicators I have seen in a lip gloss. This small size makes it difficult to pick up an adequate amount of product. Personally, I believe it would have been more effective if it had a slightly larger and wider applicator, perhaps double the size. It’s disappointing to feel like you’re playing with toy makeup due to the small size of the applicator.
A Little Goes a Long Way
Despite the drawback of the small applicator, the Merit lip oil is still a great product. You don’t need to use a lot of it to achieve a glossy and beautiful look. A little goes a long way, which is impressive considering the size of the applicator. It’s a testament to the quality of the formula that even a small amount can provide a noticeable and stunning shine to the lips.
An Affordable Alternative
If you’re looking for a lip gloss that won’t break the bank, I have another recommendation for you. There is a lip gloss available in the market that offers similar results to the Merit lip oil but at a fraction of the price. While it may not have the luxurious packaging, it still provides a glossy finish and is a more budget-friendly option for those who are conscious of their spending.
The Merit lip oil is a fantastic product that delivers a beautiful glossy finish to the lips. The stunning packaging adds an extra touch of luxury, although the applicator could be improved. Nonetheless, a little goes a long way with this lip oil, making it worth investing in if you’re in search of a high-quality lip product.
Is Essence’s Hugs and Teddies Collection Worth the Hype?
A Blast from the Past: A Nostalgic Lip Gloss Formula
The lip gloss from Essence’s Hugs and Teddies collection, called Kissed by Teddy, might remind you of a time when lip glosses were all the rage. With its beautiful brown shade and a respectable doe foot applicator, this lip gloss brings back memories of the lip gloss formula that was popular a few years ago. Unlike the current trend of lip oils and sheer shiny finishes, this lip gloss offers more pigment and opacity, making it stand out in the crowd.
A High-End Look at an Affordable Price
When it comes to the appearance of this lip gloss, it not only looks beautiful but also looks high-end. Unlike some other affordable lip glosses, this one does not give away its budget-friendly price tag. It looks luxurious and gives the impression of a higher-priced product. So, if you’re someone who wants to level up your lip gloss game without breaking the bank, this could be the perfect option for you.
Long-Lasting Color That Doesn’t Fade Away
Even after the glossy finish fades away due to eating or other activities, the color of this lip gloss lingers on the lips. It leaves a subtle tint that adds a touch of color to your lips, even after the initial application wears off. This long-lasting effect is a great bonus, especially for those who appreciate a lip product that stays put throughout the day.
Not All Glitters Are Gold: The Essence Positive Vibes Only Baked Highlighter
While the lip gloss from Essence’s Hugs and Teddies collection impresses, the same cannot be said for their Positive Vibes Only Baked Highlighter. Although it may sound enticing, this highlighter fails to live up to its name. The formula lacks the desired pigmentation and shimmer, leaving much to be desired in terms of intensity and glow. If you’re looking for a highlighter that truly shines, you might want to explore other options.
Essence’s Hugs and Teddies lip gloss offers a throwback to the lip gloss formulas of the past. With its rich brown shade, high-end appearance, and long-lasting color, it proves to be a worthy addition to your makeup collection. However, their Positive Vibes Only Baked Highlighter falls short of expectations. As with any beauty product, it’s always best to do your research and read reviews before making a purchase.
The Texture and Look of the Product
In theory, one would expect to like this product upon hearing about its features. It boasts of having a lot of kick up and fallout, which may not be a major concern. However, the texture of the product is quite disappointing. It is rough and not exactly like sandpaper. If one were to scrape their hand on a little concrete brick, that is precisely how this product feels like. It is dry, crusty, and lacks smoothness. When applied to the skin, it may not look terrible, but it certainly appears sparkly and overly glowy. Those who enjoy such a look may find this product appealing.
The Duochrome Flip
For individuals who appreciate a bold, glittery highlight, this product might be of interest. It offers a duochrome flip effect that gives a cool appearance on the skin. However, based on the finish, it seems best-suited for use on the eyes rather than on the cheeks. Personally, the author did not enjoy using it on their cheeks. That being said, the preference for a very sparkly look, combined with tolerance for a slightly dry formula, may make this product enjoyable for some.
A Surprising Contour Stick
The most unexpected surprise for the author was the Ellie girl velvet bronzer Contour stick. Testing it out on camera, their shock and surprise were evident. The author purchased the lightest shade, known as “goddess,” which turned out to be quite interesting.
Overall, this product has its pros and cons. The texture may not be appealing to everyone, and the overly glowy finish may not be desired by all. However, the duochrome flip effect and the surprising quality of the contour stick are worth mentioning. Ultimately, personal preference will determine whether this product becomes a favorite or not.
The Surprisingly Versatile New Releases
When it comes to new makeup releases, it’s easy to get overwhelmed with options. One product that caught my attention recently is a bronzer that can do much more than just add a touch of warmth to the skin. Let’s dive into the details and explore why this new release has become a favorite for many beauty enthusiasts.
A Surprising Shade for a Bronzer
At first glance, this bronzer seems to be a misfit in the bronzing category. Its shade appears too light to give a believable bronzed look, and instead, it could pass as a highlighter for medium skin tones. However, sometimes the unexpected can surprise us in the best possible way.
Applying the Bronzer
The texture of this product is creamy and emollient, making it a dream to work with. Despite its lightweight appearance, it takes a bit of building up on the skin to achieve the desired bronzed effect. However, this extra effort is worth it as the bronzer imparts a subtle, glowy finish that looks natural and radiant. Surprisingly, there are no detectable glitter particles, and instead, it offers a more nuanced sheen.
A High-End Formula without Disruption
One of the standout features of this bronzer is its ability to be applied directly to the skin with minimal disruption to foundation. Even some high-end formulations struggle with this, but not this new release. Additionally, it works beautifully when applied with a brush, providing a seamless blend onto the skin. The sheer nature of the bronzer makes it incredibly user-friendly, even for those new to makeup application.
A Top Pick
After trying and testing this bronzer, I must admit that I have become a fan. Despite its initial unconventional appearance, it has effortlessly found its place in my makeup routine. Whether I use it for a subtle bronzed effect or as a luminous highlighter, this product delivers on multiple fronts. If you’re someone who likes to experiment with versatile makeup and are looking for a new addition to your collection, I highly recommend giving this bronzer a try.
Don’t let first impressions deceive you. Sometimes, the most unexpected products can become beauty favorites. This new bronzer has shown that it has what it takes to stand out in a sea of new releases. With its ability to provide a natural radiance, creamy texture, and ease of application, it has become a must-have for many makeup lovers. So, next time you’re browsing through new releases, don’t be afraid to break the mold and give unique products a chance.
Does It Fade?
Many people have been asking me the same question over and over again: does it fade? When it comes to this particular product, I have noticed a little bit of fading. However, I believe that part of the reason for this is because it is initially a little bit more sheer. Therefore, it is not immediately noticeable or punchy. Instead, the fading becomes more apparent over time. Nevertheless, I must say that the fading is not uneven. It wears well, and if you are a fan of a glowy bronzer, then I highly recommend checking out this drugstore product.
Where to Find It

However, this does not affect the price you pay. My goal is to provide you with honest and insightful reviews, and your support through these affiliate links greatly helps me in continuing to create content for you.
Sheerness and Noticeability
The sheerness of this bronzer is something to consider. While it may not initially be as noticeable or punchy as some other bronzers on the market, this can be a positive for those who prefer a more natural and subtle look. The sheer formula allows for easy buildability, so you can achieve your desired level of bronzing without it looking too heavy or overpowering.
Glowy Finish
If you are someone who loves a radiant and glowy finish, then this drugstore bronzer is definitely worth a try. It has a beautiful luminosity that adds a healthy and sun-kissed glow to the skin. This is particularly great for those who want to achieve a fresh and natural-looking complexion.
Longevity and Wearability
When it comes to longevity, this bronzer performs well. While there is some fading over time, as mentioned earlier, it does not fade unevenly. The wear is comfortable and lasts throughout the day without becoming patchy or blotchy. This is a great option for those who need their bronzer to hold up well throughout the day, whether for work or for a special event.
I have been fortunate enough to test out several products recently and I wanted to update you all on my thoughts. While not every product has been a hit, there have been some standout items that have impressed me. From the Key Soul Care foundation to the Soul Care skincare product and the surprising discovery in the makeup category, I have found some gems worth trying. Remember to do your own research and consider your own preferences before making any purchases. Happy testing!
This skin tint may not be the best choice for those seeking a two-in-one product or heavy coverage. Its sheerness makes it ineffective as a concealer. However, if you are more interested in a lightweight product that enhances your natural skin, this may be worth a try. The doe foot applicator and thin consistency add to its ease of use. The glowy finish gives the skin a healthy radiance. Overall, this skin tint is a beautiful option for those looking for a subtle enhancement rather than a full coverage foundation.
Overall, the new Elf Squeeze Me Lip Balm is a great addition to their product lineup. While it may not be a dupe for any particular brand, it offers a hydrating formula and a subtle tint that is perfect for everyday wear. Despite its slightly waxy texture and the effort required to squeeze the product out, the end result is worth it. If you are looking for an affordable lip balm with a touch of color, give the Elf Squeeze Me Lip Balm a try.
The Essence Thick & Well Fixing Bra Mascara is a noteworthy product that ticks all the right boxes when it comes to a tinted brow gel. Its impressive pigmentation, perfect consistency, and beautiful shade range make it a must-have for anyone looking to achieve well-defined and flawless brows. Say goodbye to messy application and hello to perfectly groomed eyebrows with this fantastic product from Essence.
Candy Cloud Eyeshadow is a game-changer in the world of eye makeup. Its unique sheerness adds a touch of fascination and allows for intricate layering techniques. The duo, duochrome finish effortlessly amplifies and transforms any base shade, making it a must-have for any makeup enthusiast. With its affordability, superior formulation, and endless creative possibilities, Candy Cloud Eyeshadow proves to be a fun and useful addition to any makeup collection. Embrace the transformative power of Candy Cloud and elevate your eye makeup game to new heights.
If you are in search of a drugstore bronzer that offers a sheer, buildable, and glowy finish, then this product is worth considering. Despite some fading, it wears well and provides a natural look to the skin.
