I tried many brow gel, some very popular, and this Elf one is by far the best! As long as it exists, I will not switch to anything else! Plus, it's really not expensive!

I used to buy brow pencil from Sephora brands like Fenty Beauty, but now I turn to drugstore products, and I think they are just as good. This one I bought twice in Dark Brown and it stays all day. It's also easy to apply.

This is the latest mascara I tried and loved. I have naturally curved and long lashes, and I think it gives me the doll lashes look I like. It truly lasts a long while.

I bought this brow pencil because I’m going to Miami Beach next month and this one is waterproof. I just tried it this morning and I love it. Why? Because the application is smooth and the result is natural, yet the color payoff is great. Sometimes I...

I love this brow pencil because 1- it’s refillable at cheaper cost and 2- it does a very beautiful natural job and stays in place for a while. It’s really worth the price to me.👌🏼

I bought the waterproof version and I rarely like waterproof mascaras, but I kinda like this one. I stain myself all around the eye area but it really gives volume which I find it’s rarely the case for waterproof mascara. I think it’s expensive for a...

I loooove bronzer, but they often come with an annoying shimmer. I want to be bronzed on the daily, but without looking like I'm going to a beach party! So this one is really great!

I discovered how amazing this lip balm was while I was on Accutane! It was my favorite and it surpasses Aquafor. Be careful because I have a different kind of Mary Kay lip balm, with a different flavour and it was not as good.

I rarely wear lip liner, but if I do there’s a good chance it’s this one. (I just don’t think of using it!) The application goes on smoothly, the color is a perfect nude and I like the minty sensation.

These are really fun! I put them on Friday August 29th for an event on the 31th, and I was afraid they would fall before my event. We are now on Saturday September 6th and they are still on. All of them. Way cheaper than going to the salon!
