FACE

Blush

blush and lip stain · sheer · $24 · Sephora, milkmakeup.com
Oh my god, they feel like icy. So cold.▶ 14:24–14:29
I can start to see a little bit of a pink hue coming through.▶ 14:26–14:34
It is very, very faint.▶ 14:34–14:38
I think these would work better if you just like didn't have makeup on and you wanted like that cute summer flush on your skin.▶ 14:36–14:41
You get like a very soft peach with that new shade.▶ 14:45–14:50

Bronzer

bronzer · matte · $38.00 · Anastasia Beverly Hills, Ulta Beauty, Sephora
These are very matte. They have no shimmer in them.▶ 16:40–16:45
They do feel very smooth and buttery.▶ 16:47–16:53
No patchiness. Just like gliding right onto my skin. Really pretty.▶ 16:53–16:57
They just kind of are so like so fine milled that they just kind of melt it into the skin.▶ 17:05–17:11
Powder bronzers are this matte can get patchy, but this did not at all.▶ 17:11–17:16
I'm going to have to say I'm going to be using these a lot more.▶ 17:03–17:07

It's versatile. You can add it in your foundation. You can wear it on your bare skin.▶ 3:52–3:55
It does shear out.
I can see myself just love painting my face with this.▶ 4:21–4:26
So far, so good. It feels very thick and rich. It also says it's hydrating.▶ 4:36–4:40
The bronzer serum is so soft. It's so pretty.▶ 11:32–11:38

Concealer

concealer · natural · $16.00 · Ulta Beauty, TIRTIR Global
This gives extreme coverage.▶ 7:07–7:10
A little goes a long way.▶ 7:16–7:19
It is quite liquidy. So listen, it's going to move for you, okay? It's not thick, heavy, and creamy. It's like quite liquidy, but it does have really great coverage for that darkness.▶ 7:28–7:33
I really, really like both of these products. I do like them used together, but separately with other products, they do work well.▶ 8:46–8:49

Contour

contour stick · dewy · $34.00 · Anastasia Beverly Hills, Target, Ulta Beauty
It has like a coolness, a grayness undertone to it a little bit.▶ 10:32–10:37
It's going to give us more of a contour than like a beachy warm summer bronzed up sun-kissed look.▶ 10:37–10:43
It does kind of give us that like chiseled cheekbone right there.▶ 10:47–10:51
It just got creamier the more I used it, I noticed.▶ 10:56–11:02
It does create a nice shadowed contour if you're really into the sculpting.▶ 11:02–11:09

Foundation

cushion foundation · natural · $17.50–$25.00 · TIRTIR.GLOBAL, Ulta Beauty, Tira Beauty

This is a more full coverage foundation.▶ 5:04–5:11

How well it wears is crazy.▶ 5:17–5:21
You can see how smooth this foundation is.▶ 6:05–6:08
I would say it's more of a satin foundation than like a matte or a glowy foundation. I would say it sits in between.▶ 6:07–6:11
Do you guys see how pretty this foundation is on the skin?▶ 6:37–6:44
Check out the TIRTIR foundation. It will wear like... it will wear so pretty.▶ 28:19–28:24

That is so much pigment. How freaking cool is that?▶ 23:05–23:10
These are like markers for your lips.▶ 23:13–23:17
They've already stained, so they activate pretty quickly.▶ 24:00–24:06
These are actually so cool, I have to say.▶ 24:08–24:13
I'm noticing the color actually does build up with these.▶ 24:23–24:28
I feel like our lips are super stained and this is not moving.▶ 24:30–24:36
The lip liner doesn't really move. How crazy. Doesn't move. That's crazy.
I haven't really used a lip liner, I don't think, like this before. It's so cool and I'm really into it.▶ 25:04–25:09

The gag is the packaging is actually the same, too.
Both products, you just crank it and it pops out of the top.
Both very thick because they're both meant to condition your lips.
The texture is the exact same.
This is crazy.
I cannot believe they made a dupe of this, but it is identical.

eyebrow gel · natural · $10.00 · NYX Cosmetics, Target
It has this little combing brush.
It does dry down and then you have no more play time and then she's going to lock in your brows for the day which I just adore.▶ 2:24–2:28
This just makes my brows look thicker than what they are.▶ 2:45–2:51
I did not notice any flaking.
I've used this four times because it sits in my makeup drawer on my desk, and every time I do my brows, I lock in with this.▶ 3:07–3:13
I highly recommend. It's a new product. It's fabulous. Fabulous.▶ 3:13–3:20
