This is not a paid for advertisement or sponsorship. I buy 99% of all products I am showing. If anything was sent to me in PR or is affiliated, I will denote it with *. Links are not affiliate links, but just links to my personal pages linked to my blog or youtube channel, unless otherwise stated. I film my videos mainly using natural lighting as artificial studio lighting greatly alters the look/ performance of products and acts very similary to a filter. Besides, I don't live my life under studio lighting, so I need my makeup to look good in natural lighting mostly for my day to day life, which I why I prefer to test out products in the type of lighting I see my makeup in most.
Hello! I just wanted to tell you that i ve been watching you for quite some time now and i really enjoy your drugstore related videos, as well as those centered around your already existing makeup collection. I also live in Europe, so your recommendations are of great help. Great work🌺
You are welcome!
I bought my Welcome to Cape Town palette when I was there on holiday, so it is rather special in my collection.
My most repurchased makeup product ever has to be Essence Make me Brow. When I first got into makeup I bought Benefit's Gimme Brow and then I watched one of your videos, where you mentioned Essence has a dupe. I honestly can't tell the difference between the two, apart from the packaging and ofc, the price lol... So that has to be my no.1 Essence product. Another one I really enjoyed was their Volume Stylist mascara, but that one is unfortunately no longer produced.
Yes Make Me Brow is excellent.
The Hollywood Flawless Filter is the name of the Charlotte Tilbury product you were looking for. I liked that powder and I like the Lash Princess mascaras and the brown Xtreme Lash mascara.
That's the one! Thanks! I completely blanked.
Hi Maaike I really liked the lilac duochrome highlighter from their previous collection but used on the eyes and not the cheeks 😂. It allowed me to play with that type of product without paying a premium. I got the Catrice version too, but the lilac essence was my most used of the two. I really like their retractable eyeliners and the lipliner is decent as well. Their nail polish was surprisingly pretty good and well priced. I really liked the six pan palettes they had with the cute names a couple of years ago and still have mine.
Unfortunately their complexion stuff has been a real failure for my extremely dry sensitive skin and the shade range isn’t good at all most of the time. The mascaras all smudged on me, even the waterproof lash princess was a disaster 😢.
Overall it tends to be very hit and miss for me, with an occasional real gem I love. Best wishes x
Ps I have visitors staying last week and this week so don’t worry if I am somewhat MIA😂x
Magic filter glow booster I recently used up, I was mixing it with a foundation mostly, sometimes used it under foundation and it looked nice. I would agree that it smells really bad, like spoiled milk🤮 and also the packaging was bad. At first the pump worked, but since it is a thick product, when I used up around half of it, it was impossible to extract the product with a pump, so I had to use a spatula and yes that was quite messy. So, glad that I used it up, but I wouldn't repurchase it.
Wow you really soldiered on with that one. I didn't have the patience to commit to that level.
Love your posts, Mikka!💯❤️
Thank you!!
On me, the stay all day concealer oxides. Didn't work for me. Make me brow is a good product and easy to use.
Make Me Brow is a longstanding favorite but I wanted to show some other bits.
The Essence displays are always so messy in stores. It's like stores think because the products aren't high end, they don't have to be kept clean and orderly. And stocked!
Not the store's fault is it? It's customers making the mess. That's why over here most stores will put tape on all the products so no one can open them. It's why I have to buy online to have the products look good on camera. And the mess isn't only drugstores, even Sephora has been ransacked by people with just general lack of common decency.
@@FloatinginDreams well, they don't do that here, so it kind of is their fault, though? Also, all the other displays are always clean and stocked, so obviously the stores keep an eye on those...
