The Benefits and Drawbacks of Various Beauty Products
I want to start by saying that I have been using Goji After Skin Mask for a while now, and it has been amazing for my skin. It helps to reduce redness and hyperpigmentation, leaving me with smoother, softer skin. The mask is also great at reducing the appearance of acne and pimples, making my skin look clearer and more even-toned.
I recently tried the Urban Decay Naked Lipsticks, which were released in January. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with these products. While they have good color payoff, the matte colors are dry and don't apply smoothly. The colors that have a sheen or glitter to them are not worth purchasing, as they don't live up to their claims. One of the lipsticks, which had sparkles in it, was particularly problematic. It would build up on the inner rim of my mouth and become sticky and crumbly.
Despite the issues I had with the Urban Decay lipsticks, I still appreciate the brand's commitment to creating unique and innovative products. They have a wide range of colors and finishes to choose from, which is always exciting for beauty enthusiasts. However, in this case, their efforts didn't quite pay off.
My next review is for ByTIC Beauty It Bye-Bye Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm. When I first tried this product, I was impressed by its ability to remove makeup quickly and easily. The balm is like a warm hug for my skin, gently lifting away dirt and impurities without stripping me of my natural moisture. However, the scent of this product can be quite overpowering and unpleasant at times.
I have to say that I was really looking forward to trying out this ByTIC Beauty product, especially after hearing rave reviews from friends and fellow beauty enthusiasts. Unfortunately, its strong smell has made it a bit of a acquired taste for me. While it's effective at removing makeup and cleansing the skin, the scent is just too much sometimes.
Finally, I want to review some of my personal favorites from January. One product that stood out to me was my Clinique Cleansing Balm, which has been a staple in my skincare routine for months now. It's amazing at removing even the most stubborn makeup and impurities, leaving my skin feeling clean and refreshed.
However, when I tried out the ByTIC Beauty It Bye-Bye Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm, I was surprised by how similar it was to my Clinique balm in terms of its effectiveness. While it didn't have the same pleasant scent as my beloved Clinique product, it still did a great job at removing makeup and cleansing the skin.
In conclusion, January has been an exciting month for beauty enthusiasts, with new products and trends hitting the market left and right. While some products have exceeded my expectations, others have fallen short. I hope that these reviews will help you make informed decisions about which products to try and which ones to avoid.
Some additional tips from my personal experiences:
* Use liquid lipsticks sparingly and only when needed.
* Choose matte colors if you're looking for a more natural look.
* Avoid using products with strong scents if you have sensitive skin.
* Exfoliate regularly to maintain healthy, glowing skin.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys so today I am here to show you my January hips and God knows and I know these have been long awaited the universe stopped me from posting this earlier so finally I am here today to show you my favorite products of the month of January plus mainly the present but before we start anything I know a lot of people are nominated for this but here I go I got nominated for a shorty award even though I'm 6 foot 2 I got nominated for a shorty award and a shorty award is like the Golden Globes the Oscars and the Grammys combined into one prize for social media and I'm nominated for a big category beauty or grew or something that has to do with makeup I never get nominated for stuff like this so when I saw my name up there I was like semi-serious on Rudess I am so crazy honored that I am nominated for this so if you have some spare time then I have a link down below and you can vote for me so many amazing talented people are nominated so different except there's not a chance in hell Mo's we're going to win done but hey if you got some spare time you can fall for me if you don't want to vote for me it's cool it's fine I still love you I still love you what second thing that has nothing to do with makeup but is already a huge huge hit of the month of January I've got some help done with my lips again in the month of January after a year of nothing and baby my doctor a doctor Whitney if you're watching this girl I love you so much there is no one like you who just helps my lipstick just with a little bit of love but without any further ado let's go on to my hips of January alright this first one you can still come in the Juvia saharan palette this launched this month okay if you're new here hi my name is Nikki and Juvia spliffs eye shadows are my favorite formula because they are super duper rich in pigment they blend like a dream they are easy to work with they have minimal fallout they are just the quality is so magical plus they're super super I don't know how they do is because less than I checked pick them cost a lot of money and their eyeshadows are chief so there i shadow czar my absolute favorite so when I saw that they came out with a brand new palette this month I was head over heels I was so excited I love these colors because there are so many possibilities with this one you got your neutrals you got your high-impact humors of like gorgeousness you got a black you got a beautiful stunning inner corner highlight this palace just got it all it's only $28 let me show you this goldish greenish color clean finger let me see a one two three one two the bamas them but dependent on this palette is absolutely surreal my favorite eyeshadow formula and them I really really loved it next up with something you already felt coming as well this foundation combination has been lit these are the L'Oreal infallible foundations in Pro glow and total cover you know I like my high-end makeup but Ivan venturing into drugstore makeup a lot more because cannot let's be honest here everyone loves a good drugstore find and these two right here oh my gosh ever since I tried this in the video this month on the channel I haven't been able to put this combo down on themselves they're great but I feel together they're like this magic act that just worked beautifully on the skin the pro glow gives you that healthy shine and glow from within look while the total cover gives you that total cover it gives you that coverage that you want it can be buildable but it's mostly full coverage and it just makes your skin look so phenomenal it just it's like the perfect mix of coverage and like healthy glow and I love this it's affordable it's from the drugstore they have light enough colors because I am white as paper and it matches me I'm wearing it today and love this stuff a primary that I've been falling in love with is by Becca this is called the ever met powerless priming Perfector now this always scared me away one because so many people have put negative reviews on this out there and two I have super dry skin and anything mattifying or like oil-absorbing is like a nightmare commutes like Freddy Krueger coming to hug me just primer right here if you put it on the fingertips rub it in and then dab it onto your oily parts where your makeup gets oily the quickest for me that is Center forehead size of nose like right and that little crevice top of nose chin corners of my mouth that is where I get the oiliest the quickest and this really helps me fight that I went to gym beauty from person in my life ever and I had a meet-and-greet there with Oprah and I put this on my oily parts and my skin dabomb all day usually after like a couple of hours I know it's time for a touch-up like I need some powder especially during gym beauty but then I look into a mirror and I was fine so this was really helped making my makeup more lung-lung wearing and it's just good promise another highlighter I've been loving is my Laura Geller now Laura Geller highlighters and I haven't really been the best of friends because everyone was talking about gilded honey I bought gilded honey looks like I mean it was too dark for me it didn't really bling on my face so when I saw this color right here at Ulta I I was hesitant because I was like if this is going to treat me like gilded honey treated me I'm not gonna have a fun experience so I still went ahead and bought this and our board in a couple videos this month and this is so so pretty it is called charming pink and it is like the name it is just H our main pink it is a very nicely lime and glow but with 18 touch so it's going to give you the beautiful radiance but with the pink touch okay talking about Jen Beauty earlier I word this lip color to gems udda one I usually don't ever do this when you have an important day use products stick to products that you know work for you but I was feeling I'm feeling a little adventurous and wanted to try new products out so I recently bought a couple of the Mac liquid lipsticks they are called retro matte liquid lip colors and I wore this color too Jemm beauty and I was nervous because liquid lipsticks for me crumble really fast or they dried my lips out or whatever it was pretty ballsy you have to wear this new formula to such an important big day still did it and oh my gosh I fell in love I think I'm going to say it my favorite formulas and liquid lipsticks are Oprah but this one right here by Mac is coming so close this just stays on your lips so beautifully it doesn't crack it isn't crumble when the color fades a little bit it's like a beautiful gradient so it looks like we're supposed to be there the formula on this is just so unreal it lasts for the longest time you barely need touch-ups the colors are phenomenal the pigment is insane and I really really recommend these I know a couple of new colors launched recently and I cannot wait to get my hands on that but this right here get on it try it go to your local Mac counter and swatch him because they're really really nice okay what else what else the Stila and I know pretty much every gurus talking about these right now the magnificent metals glitter and glow liquid eyeshadows are holy crackers on a bike someone photoshopped that for me so I can see what that looks like these are so insane like they are so insane we all know that Cielo has those magnificent metal eyes basically they never really worked for me because I would apply ends when they dried in it will kind of crumble off of my eyes throughout the day so when I saw these I was hesitant and especially when I put them on my snapchat a lot of people said you're going to love the the colors and the payoff but once they dry you're going to crumble and flake off what the what the I live for this color right here this is called molten midnight it's a black with like packed packed with like so much glitter and work do you oh so pretty much I bought these but then everyone after my snap started telling me that they flake off and really just fall off your eyeballs after a couple minutes once they dry in now personally I haven't experienced this I use my Mac soft ochre Paint Pot I will say though I wore one color to jam beauty day one because of those tweets I got a little insecure about the product so I packed an eyeshadow over top while the product was still wet and staying on my eyes all day long I didn't have any crumbly Nisour falling out or whatever it sit on perfectly so if you want to be sure that this stays on all day long I recommend sending this with a shadow that is close in color but I've even worn these without sending them with the shadow and this day on my lips perfectly fine for me maybe if you are experiencing the follow up maybe try a different primer just look at it done oh my gosh how could I forget the pure identity I found out about this product because of Mac Daddy angel he was showing this off on snapchat and I was so intrigued because I have super dry on your eyes and usually I find my ways with a concealer and foundation to fight that then was I going with my baked with my powder it just i started from that i like go back to the start it's like back to zero so when he talked about the pure identity on his snapchat saying that it helps his concealer look flawless and that just made his other eyes look great I was like okay I'm sold on a try right now personally for me it has really made a difference in my makeup application where my concealer looks more smooth it just it's my under eyes look more hydrated and taken care of even when I bake you know baking is so beautiful and baking is so nice for keeping that makeup on but it can make you look older or drier and to fight that you really have to moisturize your under eyes and I find that with the pure identity I mean I have talked about this milk makeup sick the cooling water sick and I think this is great but this one works better for dehydrated dry under eyes so that's why I'm not including this in this video because I feel like this one does all the work for this one real quick the elf prep and hydrate balm stick is awesome for dry skin at first I was a little bit skeptical because I felt like you know how is you know not to be mean but how is a a cheaper brand like else going to give me all that moisture and hydration that I need usually cheaper brands don't give you that I was so wrong this gives me all I want plus more it just makes my skin feel so nourish like I said in video so it doesn't keep my makeup on longer or does anything for my pores it's just pure and soullow hydration and moisturizing alright if you follow me on snapchat last product I swear if you follow me on snapchat you've seen this mask make some appearances a lot of times this right here is by Ofra it is called the Oprah peptide whitening mask this mask still in my heart the first time I read it I was a whitening mask what do you mean it's got bleach in it no it does not have wheat in it it's not going to lighten your skin tone but I more so feel like what it does is when you have like acne or pimples or a little breakouts and they have a lot of redness or you have hyperpigmentation I believe there is goji after them here kojic acid and what kojic acid does is take hyperpigmentation or redness and kind of deals with it and gets it over with it's like a quick smooth breakup when I take this mask off I am left with smaller looking pores my skin is so so soft like it feels like velvet I have less redness in my skin it's just everything I want in the mask pretty much is this right here so yeah if you are not following me on snapchat yet add me it's sneaky tutorials and you will see this mask a lot of times I know a lot of you went out and bought this because of me on snapchat and it makes me so happy because I really really believe in this mask and my skin has been looking really good with this you can also use it as a spot treatment so those were all my products for the month of January that show my heart and now let's focus on the products that were broke myself oh yeah No all right for my first iPod note of the month of January I hate to be doing this because I feel like every guru has been saying it this month ah it pains me but I'm sorry I'm another one urban decay with wit lipsticks oh it's just so sad because the matte colors I feel like are pretty decent they have good color payoff they are pretty dry now the colors that have a sheen or a glitter or anything where to them that makes them non matte skip them don't even look at them I had trouble with one of the colors I have a color right here this is a red with like sparkles in it I wear this in a tutorial that haven't gone up yet because I'm still deciding if I want to move for the realm you know and at first was like that we are that's not a lot of pigmentation once I started working the products in it started building up on the inner rim of my mouth and what it did was it would goop up and it would become so sticky so crumbly and gritty I was like what what is going on I have to apply like four to five layers for it to become fully fully opaque and then when I wanted to take it off it wouldn't come up because it's so waterproof I think Urban Decay makes really cool awesome products so it's the use of liquid lipsticks needles with more love and girl know my last oh god no of the month is by it cosmetics if right here is the it bye-bye makeup three-in-one makeup melting cleansing balm and when I bought my Clinique cleansing balm the one that takes two makeup off beautifully I hugged weather before one of the girls at Sephora recommended this to me they were like tried this out it's cheaper it pretty much does the same thing and I think you're going to like this one better bless her soul but I didn't I this stuff is oh my god it takes her makeup off like in a jiffy like it gets your makeup off so fast I feel like you take my makeup off but it also takes away any oils my skin contained of keeping me moisturized it like totally strips my face that's not the worst part the worst part here is the smell when I first tried the Clinique balm I was amazed by how it took my makeup off the smell was a little bit like sweet I would have to get used to this this however don't get used to it you will never get used to it pretty much when I think of the movie House of Wax you know the movie where Paris Hilton dies what I think of that movie and I envision a scent like sometimes you like envisions that like what would this movie smell like it would smell like this and this is what I imagine carry for wax villains smell like so
