Nope
The color Long Ash is super pretty and gives a softer impression than black. Slim and flexible brush. But goodness, it takes a long time to build up length and a hint of volume. My lashes also became completely straight, zero curl. If it smudges on the skin, it's game over, because it sticks like glue. I understand that it's waterproof, and it reminds me of why I don't care for waterproof mascaras. I accidentally poked myself in the eye and smeared mascara all under my eye (as it happens sometimes when you're not careful). I waited until it dried to be able to remove it with a cotton swab or brush - but nope! It was just a matter of getting micellar water and rubbing everything off under my eyes and starting over with concealer, powder, and eyeshadow. I'm lazy, I want it to be quick and easy with mascara. If I happen to smudge, it should be easy to remove. This was not for me, unfortunately!1 product in post Nope41 viewsto leave a comment - 1 weekRating: 4 out of 5verified customer
Works!
Removes makeup without any problems. Doesn't sting the eyes, and leaves no film on the skin. Easy to rinse off. No irritation. Becomes a slightly oily consistency that is easy to spread on the skin. I usually massage my face while doing this, especially around the jawline for a bit of relaxation. There are just as good balms and oils for a cheaper price. Not a miracle product, but it does what it’s supposed to do.1 product in post Works!7 viewsto leave a comment - 1 weekRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
Love!
I have become more and more aware of The Ordinary and their fantastic products at great prices. This serum is no exception. I am always looking for good antioxidant serums. One favorite is survival 0 from NIOD. Due to the price, I often look for something cheaper and I think I have found a favorite. This serum is a pretty light and runny serum that spreads easily over the skin. It absorbs quickly and leaves the skin with a glow and lightly hydrated. The scent is a typical vitamin C scent and affordable. The serum works great with the rest of my routine, and I haven't had any issues under makeup, which is recurring for the serums I have tested from TO. Very economical product. Four or five drops are enough for the face and neck. I've noticed that if you use too much, it foams a little. So use sparingly. I use it during the day, as I have a serum in the evening that shouldn't be used with vitamin C (for example, Barrier and Support serum from TO). Antioxidants in the morning, recovery in the evening tends to be a winning concept for me. I have sensitive skin and my skin has not reacted negatively. It neither burns nor irritates.1 product in post Love!75 viewsto leave a comment - 1 weekRating: 3 out of 5verified customer
Pretty OK
The color is really nice with a cooler, brown-gray shade. But you have to work quite hard to get some color since the pencil itself is quite hard. The pencil is very small and easy to get details in the brows. I find it quite difficult to maintain the shape, which I actually care a lot about. But for the person who buys it for the shape, it might be good to know. It stays on all day and has held in place through sweaty and rainy days. I always try to find a "dupe" for my favorite from Anastasia Brow wiz Ash brown because of the price. But many "ash brown" in cheaper price ranges are not ashy enough and lean towards the warm side. So I will use the pencil because of the nice color and good durability, but buy again? Mja, I doubt it. We'll see.1 product in post Pretty OK51 viewsto leave a comment - 1 weekRating: 4 out of 5verified customer
Finally!
Very nice bronzer with a nice tone. I have d*mn hard time finding a bronzer with a cooler tone (more towards the rosy side). I am pale, neutral-cool tone on my skin and so many bronzers turn yellow-orange and I look like an oompa-loompa. But not this one. It looks more like a nice, light tan and applies very evenly. Not particularly shiny or glittery as it looks in the container. You get a lovely glow without being too much. 4 out of 5 stars because it’s damn hard to apply. I understand that it can be good to build up the color slowly. Very beginner-friendly. But I am way too restless and impatient to keep dipping the brush over and over again for it to show on my skin. It’s entirely a matter of taste. Will I buy again? Yes, mostly because the tone is everything I’ve been looking for and hard to find. If you have tips for bronzers with the same cooler tone, please let me know!1 product in post Finally!10 viewsto leave a comment - 1 weekRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
Replaced my previous favorite
... from Sensai. Thin and light on the skin, and blurs texture on the skin (not miraculous, but a little) without feeling dry and tight. Love the container with net-mesh that gives just the right amount of product on the brush. It feels like I'm not wasting powder, which I can experience when it's not net-mesh. The powder sets the makeup nicely, even under the eyes. Doesn't emphasize fine lines. However, it also depends on which concealer I use. I like Maybelline rewind and L'Oréal True Match, which set nicely with the powder. My skin type right now is dry (due to isotretinoin), and this powder works fantastically well. Usually, I have quite an oily skin type and need a more1 product in post Replaced my previous favorite11 viewsto leave a comment - 2 weeksRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
A favorite...
... for my iso-dry skin. Besides being dry, my skin is sensitive and prone to getting clogged. The serum is creamy, yet light. The skin feels moisturized (moisturized, not hydrated) and plump. I use one pump in the morning and two in the evening before my face cream, and after toners and lighter serums. Fragrance-free. Works well under makeup and all the face creams and sunscreens I have used. A cost-effective product, larger bottle at 50 ml and a well-functioning pump. Relatively expensive, but I haven't found a serum that has such a nice effect on the skin and lasts so long. It's worth every penny. When I'm not on isotretinoin, I have oily skin, and the serum is too rich for me during the day. But I gladly use it in the evening to give my skin some recovery and repair. Especially in winter. All in all, I have nothing bad to say about the product. Superior effective love in a bottle.1 product in post A favorite...13 viewsto leave a comment - 3 weeksRating: 4 out of 5verified customer
Easy to handle
Easy to get a nice even line with good pigment. However, I have a bit of a problem with it bleeding out.1 product in post Easy to handle226 viewsto leave a comment - 3 weeksRating: 4 out of 5
Good!
I like it when I don't wear makeup since it doesn't leave a sticky finish. It leaves the skin semi-matte/natural once it has sunk in. But I can't get it to work under makeup, unfortunately. Not buying again, but it worked well for my oily skin. Fragrance-free, smooth bottle, nice finish. I understand why it's so loved!1 product in post Good!117 viewsto leave a comment - 3 weeksRating: 5 out of 5
Favorite!
I have been using the cleanser for about two years. During these two years, I have gone through 1.5 tubes. In other words, it is an extremely economical product. A small dab goes an extremely long way. Other cleansers that I have had with the same amount last a maximum of six months. Fragrance-free, cleans without drying out the skin and leaves the skin clean. No irritation, does not sting the eyes. I have eczema-prone skin with rosacea, go on isotretinoin now and then, and this cleanser does nothing worse, and works well even under strong treatment. The cleanser works well for me both when I am not on isotretinoin treatment, which then is oily as hell, and when my skin is iso-dry. And the best part is how easy it is to rinse off! I cannot recommend the cleanser highly enough!1 product in post Favorite!160 viewsto leave a comment
