Thin lovely consistency but too dry
I appreciate the high SPF 50 and the consistency is really light and pleasant. I have combination skin with fairly large pores and primarily want a BB cream that is moisturizing and conceals pores. I love the color of this one; it suits my fair skin perfectly. The product is also very economical, and you don’t need much to cover the entire face. Although the consistency is pleasant, it is a bit too thin for me. It doesn’t flake like I think many BB creams do, but it creates dry patches on my face and settles into the pores. I have to apply a moisturizing serum to get rid of the dryness and then remove it with pads. In the end, the result is very good, and the cream really evens out the skin tone and is good for oily skin. As mentioned, maybe a bit too good and difficult when you have dry areas and combination skin. It simply only works on certain parts of my face. On the cheeks, it sits nicely, but on the nose, it gets too dry. I prefer a slightly thicker consistency that adheres more easily to the face. I will probably combine this with a thicker product. But I’m a bit ambivalent because after some effort, the result becomes very glowy and even. This cream is best for glow and evening out, not for hiding pores and other imperfections. If you have dry skin, you should not use this product, but if you have very oily skin and like light BB creams, it’s probably good. It has no strong scent, and I can imagine it’s well suited for sensitive skin. It doesn’t irritate the skin in any way but is simply too dry for me.

Gives false eyelash effect
First of all, I love the design of the mascara. It looks inviting and luxurious. I have quite long lashes that are way too straight, so the most important thing for me is to get a good curl on the lashes. This mascara gives a superb curl with one coat and makes them look longer than they are. I would say the curling effect is one of the best I've experienced, on par with my favorite mascaras from Lancôme. Additionally, the mascara is jet black and has good staying power. The brush has short, sparse bristles. I would prefer slightly longer and denser ones because I struggle to separate the lashes so they don’t look like spider legs. Once that is done, the result is fantastic. Another downside is that the mascara is very hard to remove. It’s not just waterproof but impossible to get off even with cleansers and similar products. However, the amazing false eyelash effect makes this less important. This is definitely a top 5 mascara in the budget category for me. I will continue to use it.

Gives a natural fresh look
This mousse is small and handy to take with you. The texture is irresistible, and I want to eat it like raspberry mousse. The color is a big favorite, but I miss the shine. The product is said to be for both lips and cheeks. For me, it works best on the cheeks. The mousse can also be varied well depending on the effect you want. A thin layer on lips and cheeks looks natural and unmade-up. The lips get a little extra rosy, and the cheeks look rosy as after a jog. However, if you apply more, it looks made-up, especially on the lips. I really like the product as a blush for everyday use because it looks so naturally rosy. For more festive occasions, I would like to add something with more shine on top. As a lipstick, the mousse doesn't work as well. It is very matte and smudges easily. However, it works well as a color enhancer for the lips. I will use the mousse as blush and on the lips when I want to pretend to be without makeup or when I work out 😀 The pictures show how the product looks with a thin layer versus several layers and fully covering on the lips. The color is, as said, "to die for," and I would love to find other lipsticks in the same color.

Really lifts the upper lips
Lifter liner is truly a fitting name for this miracle pen. In the picture, I painted quite a bit outside the lines to test its capacity. The fact that I accidentally painted a bit crooked is not the pen's fault because it really holds up to shaping and over-dimensioning the mouth without looking artificial. That sharp edge that usually appears when painting outside is absent. At the same time, the lip liner is unusually creamy and lovely in texture, yet it stays on for a long time. It works well to paint the pen over the entire mouth under lipstick and/or lip gloss. Often I find that my lips get flaky when I do this, but this works all day without me getting dry. The color is too brown for me, as I prefer cool tones towards red and pink, but with this pen in the right color, the rating would be a five. For those who like brownish tones and want to shape their mouth, I can only recommend the pen. Please excuse that I painted a bit crooked; the pen does a brilliant sculpting job. I can also happily point out that it is easy to remove, pads are enough.

Creamy Lipstick – Amazing for Dry Lips
This lipstick has a fantastic texture and stays on the lips for a long time. It feels better than lip balm for dry lips, and the flakes are gone like magic. I find that creamy lipsticks with a lot of moisture disappear quickly, but this lipstick provides both moisture and stays put like a rock. The lipstick also has good coverage, as I think some creamy lipsticks are too sheer. I would say this is a perfect everyday lipstick that lasts through both lunches and meetings. Since I prefer slightly glossier or metallic lipsticks, I give this product a strong four instead of a five. For those who like a matte creamy lipstick, this is the perfect long-lasting lipstick. I will probably continue to use it with lip gloss on top for a shinier look. I also appreciate the grippy, earthy tube. The product feels overall natural and earthy.

Loreal Revalift eye bag instant eraser worked wonders on the skin under the eyes
I am 51 years old and don’t have major problems with bags under my eyes, but this product worked wonders on the smaller, less flattering appearances I have under my eyes. I felt that my skin became completely smooth under the eyes after a while and it lasted all day. It only took a small dab to cover the entire area under the eye and a bit outside the corner of the eye. I found the gel consistency very pleasant. I didn’t feel any discomfort from the product for the most part. Sometimes it itched, but it wasn’t certain that it was due to the product. I will continue to use this magical product because of its smoothing effect. I don’t need to use it daily, just a couple of times a week on occasions when I need to "freshen up" a bit extra. I also like to spread the product on other parts of my face where I feel it helps, for example above the mouth.
