These are Products I have tested out for the past four weeks.
I have the shade well being and growth. I rate this a 10/10. Super creamy, pigmented and the lasting power is strong
All of the Above Weightless Eyeshadow Stick
I am rating this a 8/10. The coverage is good, buildable. The shade range could be better and the price is a little steep for the bottle
Veil™ Hydrating Skin Tint Foundation
I have the shade pillow talk medium. I'm rating this a 5/10. The longevity and how it wears could be improved.
Airbrush Flawless Matte Lip Blur Liquid Lipstick
I'm in the shade YP5. I love it 10/10. Coverage, consistency, application all amazing.
Hy-Glam Brightening & Hydrating Medium to Full Coverage Crease Proof Serum Concealer
Post Date of July 12
I use the shade perfect pink. I'm rating this a 10/10 I have been gravitating towards this almost every day
Soft Pop Plumping Blush Veil
I love this foundation but the shade range could be better. It was a little too dark for me but love the coverage and consistency 9/10! Mainly because the shade range is so off.
Triclone Skin Tech Medium Coverage Foundation with Fermented Arnica
I used the shade coral rose. My first time using Juvias Place and Ioved it! 10/10!
Blushed Liquid Blush - Juvia's Place | Ulta Beauty
This was okay, I expected a little more pigment but it was cute. I have not used it since reviewing it. 5/10 only because of presentation. The formula isn't great
dasique Shadow Palette #19 Candy Berry Vegan
Post Date Oct 11
I'm rating this a 5/10. This didn't give me the glow I wanted under or on top of makeup.
Face Glaze Skin Barrier Protect & Glow Moisturizer
I love this. 10/10. It blends so easily, the longevity holds strong and everything about this. You need! I got it in the shade brazen
Afterglow Liquid Blush
I can see the mix reviews on this. I'm rating this an 8/10. Really good light to medium coverage but it was hard to find a good shade.
SurrealSkin™ Awakening Concealer
Best complexion, glow, tint. I'm in the shade light deep. A 10/10. Hydrating, glowy and it gives my skin an even complexion. I don't have to wear a lot of foundation with this.
Travel-Size Water-Fresh Tint
Post Date of Nov 15
For this weeks I bought it so you don't have to, I tested out drug store foundations.
This is SO good. The coverage, longevity, price point. All very impressed. 10/10. You need it.
Maybelline Super Stay 24HR Skin Tint Foundation with Vitamin C - 1 fl oz
This was okay. I personally expected more from E.L.F but it was just okay. The shade range was hard, and clinged on to dry patches. A 4/10
e.l.f. Flawless Finish Foundation - 0.68 fl oz
I also had high hopes. Some said this was a dupe for the Giorgio Armani Foundation but it was okay. The coverage was good but shade was hard to find. I am reading this a 7/10
L'Oreal Paris True Match Lumi Liquid Foundation Makeup, C3 Creamy Natural, 1 fl oz
Products tested for February
This has been my go to since it launched. I have dry skin. The consistency reminds me of the milk hydro grip primer but a little more hydrating.
I've been obsessed
Secure the Glow Tacky Hydrating Primer with BOBA Complex
So much yes. This is such a cool product. I love that it is a cheek and lip tint. I usually don't like combining the two, but it so so good! It layers so well on top of other creams and when you apply powder over it, it sits all day!! 10/10
Cooling Water Jelly Tint Lip + Cheek Blush Stain
This is as good as the original one. I do think they have less product in them now but 9/10
Light 210 N Camo Hydrating CC Cream SPF 30 - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Products testing in March
I liked this. I'm eating at 8/10 only because of the longevity is not that great. But love the shade, how it wears and the cooling of it.
Pout Clout Lip Plumping Pen
March & April I bought it so you don't have to
I have started to narrow down the testing so I have the opportunity to try the product fully. I have switched to 2 products a month ◡̈
I'm rating this an 8/10. I love that is is creamy but I wish there was a little more pigment. Overall a great product. For the price and payoff. It is good for natural, easy makeup days
Milani Cheek Kiss Cream Bronzer - 0.21oz
I wanted to love this. I was a little disappointed. I am rating this a 5/10. It wasn't ground breaking. And the price point was a little too high for me
Beauty Balm Serum Boosted Skin Tint
I LOVE! 10/10 it has been my go to. Such good coverage and easy to wear. I'm in the shade 26w. So good. I wear it alone, as a foundation and sometimes under my foundations for more protection
Protec(tint) Daily SPF Tint SPF 50 Sunscreen Skin Tint with Ectoin
I am rating this 8/10. I got it in the shade coral crush. I wanted to love this but it was hard to blend out. If you are not comfortable with liquid blushes, be mindful.
e.l.f. Camo Liquid Blush - 0.13 fl oz
