· I loved how soft and silky this lipstick feels when you apply it to your lips. I also love the all black, soft touch packaging. It looks so high end and fancy. The sample is also a nice size. Good bang for your buck
1. Claim: Dusty Mauve Color
· The picture in the inside of the insert made it look like the color would be more of a red/pink toned mauve. However, when this is applied to the lips it comes off as very purple. I was not a fan of the color because of that.
2. Claim: Soft-creamy texture
· Absolutely! The soft, creamy texture of this lipstick is dreamy.
3. Claim: Weight-less coverage
· Correct. After you apply this lipstick, you cannot even tell if you are wearing anything. It is so light weight and comfortable.
4. Claim: Nurtures Skin
· Yes. This lipstick never dried out my lips! I wouldn’t say it hydrated them either but it locked in the moisture they already had.
--$26 for Full Size
· I love the eyeliners that you roll up so you never have to sharpen them, so naturally I was drawn to this eyeliner immediately. This eyeliner is creamy enough that it glides on my eyelids without tugging at my skin. Finally, it was great that the black was really black and filled with pigment. The only downside to this eyeliner I see is that sometimes when I wear it ALL day, the black can smudge onto the top of my eyelid.
1. Claim: Rich Pigment and Deep Black Shade
· Yes! The black pigment is so rich and deep.
2. Claim: Slides Easy Without Tugging
· It is amazing how easy this slides across my eyelid for a stick eyeliner. It is so creamy and applies easily.
3. Claim: Water Resistant
· I have found this to be very water resistant. The eyeliner will still be in place after showering and washing my face.
-- $18 for Full Size
· I loved using this moisturizer. I have severely dry skin and I think this is a little light for the winter for my skin type. However, during the summer, I know I am going to love this. The gel consistency is thick enough that it actual provides moisture to extremely dry skin.
1. Claim: Boost Skins Moisture when Applied
· Yes! It did boost my skins moisture as soon as I applied it.
2. Claim: Keeps Hydrated up to 72 Hrs.
· I don’t think that it keeps my skin hydrated for 72 hours during the winter months when my skin already starts off extremely dry. However, I am excited to give this a try in the summer when my skin isn’t quite as dry. Of course I can’t speak about how well it will work in the summer now, but it would not shock me if in the summer, it kept my skin hydrated for over a couple of days.
3. Claim: Skin looks healthy, plump + dewy
· Yes. I think that this instantly gave my skin a healthy, plump and dewy bounce after I applied it
-- $19 for 30ml bottle
· I enjoyed these eye masks. The gold foil on the outside made them fun and different from anything I have ever tried before. The feature of these that stuck out to me the most is that once I applied them to my under eyes, they did not budge until I wanted to take them off. These left my skin feeling hydrated and fresh.
1. Claim: Hydrates Skin
· Yes. I thought they added good moisture to the skin!
2. Claim: Diminishes Appearance of Fine Lines: I don’t have a lot of fine lines so I am not positive. I did enjoy the way my under eyes looked and felt after using this eye mask though.
--$25 for 6 eye masks
· I enjoyed this serum much more than I thought I would. I thought I saw a noticeable difference in the brightness of my skin after using this night after night. It has a light and watery texture. What I did not like about the sample is the sample is actually really empty compared to how big the bottle is.
1. Claim: Lightweight
· Yes! This has a really light, watery, gel consistency.
2. Claim: Illuminating Formula
· After applying this night after night, I thought my skin did get noticeably brighter.
3. Claim: Combats the Appearance of Dark Spots
· I would say yes because that goes along with your skin looking brighter all around.
4. Claim: Skin Quickly Absorbs for Ultimate Hydration
· My first impression of this serum is that it left my skin feeling slightly sticky. However, after repeatedly using it, I think that it does provide a little bit of hydration. I would not use this solely for hydration alone.
--$79 for 30ml Bottle
· I like that this line has two scents that go side by side. One a little sweeter and more innocent and one a little darker and daring. I really enjoyed both scents as both had a sweet smell. Saint is more sweet all around while Sinner has a sweet smelling undertone. I do not think either of these stayed smelling on my skin all day which is disappointing. Sinner did last longer than Saint.
1. Saint – Alluring + Dreamy
· This is a dreamy, light and sweet scent. However, I cannot smell it on myself throughout the day. I wish it was stronger and did not disappear. However, I did enjoy the actual scent.
2. Sinner – Dark + Empowering
· This scent smells good. The smell is heavier and more sultry than Saint. I also believe this scent lasts longer on my clothes and skin. This does not stay smelling on my skin all day though.
-- $45 for 30ml
