- “These have a squishy, bouncy texture. They are silicone-based, and I would personally describe them as a cream to powder formula”10:22–10:28
- “As you blend it out, it settles into this super soft, radiant powder finish”10:39–10:44
- “Some of the shades like Blurry Rose do have very fine shimmer to them, but they don't look overly sparkly”10:44–10:48
- Source: Testing new makeup under $20 all week
- “I've actually been using the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blush the most”15:09–15:13

- “I love the glow this gives my skin”

- “I did find a dupe of this in my makeup drawers, and that's from Pretty Smart”15:26–15:30
- “Does it not look exactly the same like first applied?”16:39–16:44
- “I feel like this one's a tiny less pigmented where I might have to add a little bit more, but it's blending out to look very similar shadewise and finishwise”16:50–16:55

- “This is a cream-to-powder formula, and I really do think that this is different from any bronzer that I currently have in my collection”8:24–8:31
- “It swipes on very smoothly, it just kind of glides over the skin, but as you blend it out, you start getting this silky powdery finish, and it feels incredibly lightweight”8:43–8:48
- “It doesn't have that thick feeling that a lot of other cream bronzers have, especially in stick form”8:53–8:59
- Source: I tested new makeup releases for over a month... hits or misses?
- “I have been using and loving the About-Face The Illusionist Concealer for the past couple months”5:53–6:00

- “It has a much creamier consistency than the foundation”6:36–6:43
- Source: I tested new makeup releases for over a month... hits or misses?
- “If I am just working really quickly, maybe I'm running late or maybe I just want to wear a lighter face in general when I'm not breaking out, this is what I use all over my face”5:30–5:35
- “This is also pretty buildable. You tap out at about medium coverage, but it looks so natural on the skin and it actually lasts really well even in my expression lines”5:39–5:45
- “This is a nice flexible and hydrating formula”
- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)
- “I really like this formula because it is so thin and blendable and it lasts”13:40–13:45
- “It blends out to look natural. It doesn't lean orange. Like, it's actually giving contour and not just warmth”14:25–14:33
- “I don't know if I would necessarily pay full price for it. This is definitely a product that I would snatch up during a sale only because it reminds me a lot of the Moira liquid contour, which is like around $5”13:45–13:51
- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)
- “The Moira one only comes in four shades, but it is this very thin and liquidy formula that's super pigmented, blends well, lasts all day”
- “That one may have a little bit more of a soft matte finish versus this one staying more radiant”9:26–9:29

- “It almost looks like a filter in real life”1:59–2:05
- Source: I tested new makeup releases for over a month... hits or misses?
- “For me, if I'm choosing to use a grippy primer, it's because I'm doing a more full face makeup look. And this is a medium to full buildable coverage foundation. I usually build it up to full”2:05–2:11

- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)

- Source: I tested new makeup releases for over a month... hits or misses?
- “It starts off with a very very thin and runny consistency. I mean, it really does look like a skin care serum, which means it's very easy to spread over the skin”6:45–6:54
- “After just a few moments it starts drying down to more of that sticky sensation”7:00–7:06

- Source: Testing & rating the top 4 drugstore grip primers
- “This is a non-comedogenic primer, which means it's not going to clog your pores”1:04–1:07

- “You can feel it on the face. I have never considered this a lightweight product”1:38–1:41
- Source: Testing & rating the top 4 drugstore grip primers
- “This is only $5.99”

- “With this one we're definitely getting back into that thicker, grippier territory”14:06–14:11

- “This is actually stronger than the Essence one, though”14:26–14:32
- Source: Testing & rating the top 4 drugstore grip primers
- “The texture of this primer is very interesting because it does have a jelly-like consistency in that it's thin and spreadable, but it also has a soft and silky feel as you spread it across your skin that a typical silicone primer would have, but without the silicone”1:13–1:16
- “I also found it cooling on the skin as I applied it, and I could definitely feel and see the hydration”1:29–1:33

- “I immediately felt the hydration out of this formula, but it was also a little more pigmented than I expected it to be”16:11–16:18

- “I didn't feel like I needed to reapply any more often than a typical lip balm”16:31–16:41
- Source: Testing new makeup under $20 all week
- “These actually nourish the lips while softly defining to give you a fuller lip look”13:23–13:27
- “It's kind of like these and the L'Oreal ones have the same end goal. I just think these do it better”13:27–13:31

- Source: I tested new makeup releases for over a month... hits or misses?
- “The formula glides on really easily without being overly creamy, which I like. I feel like super creamy lip liners just slip around too easily. So, I like that these felt a bit stiffer, but they stayed blendable”12:46–12:53
- “They do dry down to more of a soft matte finish, but they don't feel dry”13:05–13:09
- “When you apply these, it takes a minute, but you can definitely start to feel the chili extract and ginger root oil kick in. It doesn't hurt, but it's a soft sting”
- Source: Testing new makeup under $20 all week

- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)
- “I love this shade. It is truly a cool cool dark brown that actually matches my hair perfectly”4:51–4:59
- “This is a pretty pigmented formula though I find it easy to blend so that it doesn't look too heavy”5:08–5:14
- “Right away, I noticed how much hold this product provides”5:51–5:54
- Source: Testing new makeup under $20 all week
- “This one's a bit thicker than the Benefit gel. I just have to be careful not to over apply so that way I don't get a cast”15:01–15:07
- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)
- “I've gone back to using another old favorite”6:23–6:27
- “I've tried drugstore brow pencils that have come close to duping this, but in my humble opinion, it has never been truly duped in checking every single box”6:31–6:35
- “I just feel like this is the right amount of creamy that it glides onto the skin, but it still looks light”7:12–7:16
- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)

- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)
- “In the middle of my eye, I'll add a little bit of champagne shimmer”10:01–10:04
- “This is kind of like a rosy champagne sparkle”10:06–10:12
- “Very subtle sparkly eye. Makes me feel like myself in the fact that I have, you know, a hint of a glam moment”10:16–10:25
- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)
- “I start with the ColourPop Shadow Sticks in Bear with Me. This is one of their matte shadow sticks”8:50–8:56

- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)
- “The only mascara that I have found that can actually keep my lashes curled up throughout an entire workday is the CoverGirl Lash Blast Cleantopia mascara in the waterproof version”11:56–12:00
- “Not only does this lock my curl in place, but it also doesn't flake”12:07–12:12
- “I never get through my routine without getting mascara on my lid with this brush. I think because it's so large, but also the mascara formula is so thin that it almost like flings off of the brush onto my lid”12:25–12:31
- Source: My New 9-5 Work Makeup Routine (Quick & Long Lasting)
- “I started a tretinoin skincare regimen over winter, which is like a retinol product that I get from my dermatologist, and is known to dry the skin, and you know, flakiness is a side effect of that”3:20–3:25
