  1. @juliaadamsmua reviewing Physicians Formula Bronze Booster Sun Tint Cheek & Lip Stain at 01:15 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • It's the perfect bronzy blush shade0:55
    • The color is worth learning that curve
    • This isn't the strongest tint out there. It subtly stains1:15
    • You can wipe it off and restart, which kind of makes it more manageable. I do like that quality, but it still has great longevity1:30
    • My favorite thing, though, is the Physicians Formula Tint. I'm really excited to wear this all summer long
    • I think that's where this product shines the most14:56
    • I really, really love that
    • I think it's cute on the lips
  2. @juliaadamsmua reviewing MAKE UP FOR EVER HD Skin Balancing & Perfecting Foundation at 02:54 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • It reminds me a lot of the Givoni foundation that I love so much, just with more concentrated coverage, which I really enjoy2:47
    • This does have more of a matte finish, but the feel, the blendability, and how it wears reminds me a lot of the Givoni2:54
  3. @juliaadamsmua reviewing Natasha Denona Hy-Glam Concealer at 04:22 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I've been really liking this concealer. I like how anti-creasing it is and it just looks amazing4:22
  4. @juliaadamsmua reviewing Versed Smooth Finish Brightening Setting Powder at 05:20 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Versed$14.99
    • It reminds me a lot of what the Givenchy loose setting powder used to be like. So it does have kind of a illuminating sheen to it5:10
    • It doesn't add any texture or crepiness at all because the base powder is very blurring5:20
    • It completely sets, but it still remains looking bit pearly9:56
    • I do find it's a touch too brightening for all over my face10:11
    • It does look more like natural skin, which I do enjoy. It still has some blurring qualities. It is setting my makeup10:38
    • The one thing I didn't like from today is the powder. I do see that under my eyes. It's not making my concealer crease. But now that my concealer has adjusted the powder is exaggerating the look of my under eye lines14:00
    • It's just far too reflective for my liking14:21
    • If you have super dry skin and you do like the glowier look to your base, you may really, really enjoy this stuff14:23
  5. @juliaadamsmua reviewing RHODE SKIN Pocket Bronzer at 07:08 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Rhode$25.00
    Pocket Bronzershade · Sunbed
    • I've tried these a few times and I really like it6:25
    • They're quite a bit more powdery in the feel compared to the Road Pocket Blushes, which makes them a bit more longwearing7:08
    • There is a brush. It's a bit small for my liking, and I feel like it kind of pokes at the product too much. So, I don't like it for the bigger areas of my cheek7:15
    • It looks very neutral once it's on my skin blended out8:08
    • I think I really like that
    • The road bronzer... is a highlight from today's video
  6. @juliaadamsmua reviewing Milani Baked Highlighter at 09:08 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Baked Highlightershade · Dolce Perla
    • It seems like a really nice smooth, soft pearl. Like very, very seamless9:01
    • Very much a strobe effect9:08
    • Very seamless, sheer when the light's not hitting it. And then bam9:21
    • Oh, I really like this actually. Worth the wait, I guess9:26
    • The Milani highlight is gorgeous, and I'm actually very excited about it. I think it's a stunning, very strobing effect highlight, which I do like to whip out in the summertime14:35

    Ink All Black Carashade · 02 Volume Curling
  8. @juliaadamsmua reviewing L'Oreal Paris Blurfiller Blurring Lip Contour at 12:05 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • These are kind of chubbier lip liners, but they're nice and matte. They don't have a sheen at all, and they come in really pretty colors11:47
    • I really like these because of the matte finish. They have good longevity and I think they're just a more flattering finish, especially if you want to blur them out over your natural lip line a bit12:05
    • These have a very similar feel to the Liy by Red sticks that I really enjoy, just a bit more satin feeling in the finish and glide. They're not as powdery dry as the Lily by Red
    • But these have really good longevity12:52
    • These are really, really pretty lip liners if you like more of a soft effect to your lips. Such pretty shades, too15:24
  9. @juliaadamsmua reviewing Versed Cashmere Color Smoothing Lip Blush at 13:27 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Versed$11.99
    • Very sheer but subtly bronzy13:20
    • Oh, it feels way more matte on my lip. You know what this feels like? The original Glossier Generation G's, specifically in Leo13:27
    • I thought it was going to add some shine, but instead it kind of muddled everything together. I wish this was more glossy. I really do13:39

    Rhode$20.00
    Peptide Lip Tintshade · Colada
    • It smells so good
  11. no still
  12. @juliaadamsmua reviewing MAC Cosmetics 143S Brush at 07:37 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I feel like it diffuses it without kind of touching it too much, if that makes sense. Less chances of picking up whatever's underneath7:37
