  1. @amandaz reviewing Biodance Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask at 01:24 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Biodance$19.00
    • I just loved the way it depuffed and kind of tightened up my skin1:12
    • This has been one of the only face masks that really takes care of it and leaves my skin with almost this like kind of tight and bright look, but it kind of gives a different effect, a very glass kind of skin effect1:24
    • It makes your skin more difficult to move around1:36
    • By the time it comes off, your face kind of has this really glossy sheen that actually lasts1:43
    • This one is more for like a special event, really kind of tight and bright look to the skin1:58
  2. no still
    Biodance$19.00
    • This one is going to be more deeply nourishing
  3. @amandaz reviewing Beauty of Joseon Dynasty Cream at 02:35 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • The Dynasty Cream is really replenishing, deeply hydrating2:27
    • I don't think the Dynasty cream is great for use under makeup. I do find it will peel under makeup2:35
    • I just use this when I'm not wearing makeup or at night time2:55
    • I really have found that on days when I think my skin is dry, it's not necessarily lacking in oil. It is lacking in water and in hydration in my actual skin barrier. And this is what does a really good job of kind of balancing my skin3:00
    • For oily skin, you got to check that one out because I just feel like that would be your ultimate night cream3:16
  4. @amandaz reviewing AESTURA ATOBARRIER365 Cream at 03:27 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • The Aura is better for true moisture2:32
    • I have repurchased this multiple times3:27
    • It is an absolutely stunning product that I have heard people talk about, but I just think that it deserves so much more love because it is affordable, but really performs the same way that a lot of these really high-end moisturizers3:30
    • You need very little to get a really deeply nourished effect3:48
    • It's not a really greasy product either3:53
  5. @amandaz reviewing Medicube Zero Pore Pad at 04:43 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Medicube$20.99
    Zero Pore Padshade · 2.0
    • I was nervous about trying these
    • This does an excellent job of keeping my actual dead skin cleared but also taking care of the pore itself4:37
    • A really well formulated pore pad exfoliating toner like this... they get so much hype that they do is because they're really taking care of so many different steps in one4:43
    • I love these
    • Not every product from Medicube I love. I absolutely love these5:07
  6. @amandaz reviewing Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Probiotics Barrier Essence at 05:18 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This is my holy grail now for over a year5:15
    • The Black Rice Probiotics Barrier Essence has done more for my skin than a lot of crazy rich creams5:18
    • This does such a beautiful job of really nourishing the skin, imparting both moisture and hydration5:27
    • You can just layer on a couple layers of this and your skin is so deeply replenished, but it's just so freaking lightweight5:38
    • I have personally found that I'm not using super rich creams anymore. I am layering thinner creams, essences, toners, and finding that my skin has been doing incredible as far as actually repairing the skin barrier5:46
    • I have seen kind of the best results that I've seen in a while6:07
  7. @amandaz reviewing Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sun Gel at 06:56 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Isntree$18.99
    • I still think that it's an incredibly underrated product for the again deep hydration that it gives the skin without it being an overly greasy product6:23
    • I still think that this as far as Korean sunscreens is one of the best6:56
    • I still think that it would get along with so many different skin types7:01
  8. @amandaz reviewing TIRTIR Collagen Lifting Eye Cream at 07:22 in a YouTube Shorts video
    TIRTIR$24.00
    • This is my eye cream of choice7:11
    • I love this one specifically because it's not going to give me millia, which is so important to me7:22
    • It's very hydrating. It's bouncy. It's plushy7:27
    • I can use it morning or night7:34
    • For me, I love the depuffing feel of it7:36
    • This feels rich, but not too rich
    • I don't often feel super strongly about eye creams, so the fact that I feel this way about this one says a lot7:46
    • This has absolutely become a holy grail for me
    • I do find that it really helps the resilience of my skin
  9. @amandaz reviewing Missha M Perfect Cover BB Cream at 08:46 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I'm still going to give it to the Missha Perfect Cover BB cream8:35
    • I always keep a bunch on hand8:46
    • It gives me this true creamy soft focused hydrated look9:09
    • It doesn't want to cling to dry patches, to wrinkles, to texture9:19
    • It gives a very lovely breathable medium coverage9:23
    • It doesn't feel like a lot of creamy, heavy looking coverage once it's on9:30
    • It just has this really lovely kind of fresh facial glow9:44
    • I've loved it for years. Again, like we're talking 7 to 8 years here9:52
  10. @amandaz reviewing glow Not Dry Concealer Pot at 10:48 in a YouTube Shorts video
    glow$34.50
    • It is that perfect creamy hydrated under eye with a great amount of coverage that doesn't look dry, weird, cakey, and gives me the brightness that I need for my hollow under eyes, which so many concealers do not10:32
    • That has been consistent through K beauty and Western beauty, you know, just over and over and over again. A lot of concealers do not work for me, but this is one where I would highly recommend10:48
    • Just taking a small amount, putting it under the eyes if you just want kind of a no makeup makeup look. It's just a very fresh, pretty effect11:00
    • You get two different colors with it. You have kind of a corrector and a concealer shade11:15
    • The formulas themselves are very skinloving11:25
  11. @amandaz reviewing Nature Republic By Flower Blusher at 12:00 in a YouTube Shorts video
    By Flower Blushershade · Praha Dahlia
    • This is so cheap. Like, a lot of these products are insanely cheap. The fact that I can get this blush for five bucks just kind of it's insane to me11:45
    • It just looks like such a nothing kind of shade, but it really warms up once you actually get it onto the skin to this really lovely soft peach12:00
    • It has the blurring kind of formula that I wish for when I see formulas like this12:14
    • This is a soft focused effect that still looks natural12:28
    • I used this on my sister on her wedding day12:33
    • There's a naturalness. There's a subtlety to these that I think makes them not the sexiest product around, but one of those Jennis Qua something is different about your makeup overall impactful kind of look12:41
    • I highly highly recommend them. I think that this is a winner that again I don't hear anyone talking about12:58
    • I just find myself going back to it over and over and over13:03
  12. @amandaz reviewing lilybyred Luv Beam Cheek Balm at 13:47 in a YouTube Shorts video
    lilybyred$15.50
    • This to me this is like a brightening blush
    • I don't know how to describe it other than it gives me cheekbones I don't have. It gives me this kind of like plush cheek look13:40
    • It adds that brightness. It is again another one of those like secret weapon products in my routine when I feel like my entire makeup look looks flat. This a little bit just right on the cheeks and everything pops. Everything comes alive. I look more awake. Like my green eyes pop13:47
    • It sticks where you place it and does not move. It has longevity14:24
    • Even though there are some of these really emollient fluid kind of products that feel really kind of cosmetically elegant... This is one of those kind of like you're not expecting much maybe from a product like this and then somehow it like delivers on longevity genuina extra bonus points. It's phenomenal. Phenomenal14:27
    • This was a product that over and over again when I went to Korea people were recommending it and I see why14:55
    • I am fully on team Lily by Red, especially the Love Balms14:59
  13. @amandaz reviewing fwee Lip & Cheek Blurry Pudding Pot at 15:21 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I feel like the Fwee Pudding Pots are a mixture between the Nature Republic as well as the Lily by Red15:08
    • It has the blurring quality of the Nature Republic product, like that kind of powdery feel, like obviously this is a putty, but it kind of goes down to this powdery smoothing look15:21
    • Like the Lily by Red, that kind of smooth impact that it gives the cheeks, that kind of creaminess15:38
    • My favorite really way to use them is to just throw them on the cheeks and the lips all in one. It kind of immediately pulls together a look15:48
    • Just the smoothness, the kind of even look of any pores or texture on the cheeks. Really, always, always a favorite15:58
  14. @amandaz reviewing LAKA Mono Eyeshadow at 16:32 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • As far as K beauty single shadows, this has been my most favorite since I tried them this year16:29
    • Since I tried them, it's been kind of difficult for me to want to recommend other single shadows that K beauty brands come out with because, you know, I've tried a lot. A lot of them are duds16:32
    • These are the wet sparkly top coats that I am always looking for and hunting for on Yes Style16:51
    • They are almost reminiscent of if you guys have tried like the Natasha Denona Chroma Crystal Top Coats, they're almost reminiscent of that, just drier and obviously not like in a pot
    • They all have different base pigments, but they're all very sheer base pigments with of course the wet glossy sparkles throughout17:17
    • If you are looking for just a wet sparkly glossy top coat, varying slight differences in the undertone, these are like such an incredible bang for your buck17:30
    • LAKA is one of those brands that I just I got to try more from them. And this was the first product from them I was like, 'Holy cow.'17:40
    • They have a little bit of a plushness to them... that give and that slip really makes them want to apply to the eyes really readily. They're not like an overly dry formula18:04
    • I like a product that wants to immediately stick to the eyes, adheres well18:14
    • Wet eyeshadow lovers should be aware18:31
  15. @amandaz reviewing LAKA Mono Eyeshadow at 17:48 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Mono Eye Shadowshade · Glory
    • Specifically the shade Glory is to me a really lovely just glossy peach wet looking eyeshadow17:48
  16. @amandaz reviewing LAKA Mono Eyeshadow at 18:34 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Mono Eye Shadowshade · Liberty
    • The shade Liberty from LAKA. This is like the most lovely grungy wet looking glitter. Like very very much giving luxury as far as that sparkle. The quality is just insane18:34
  17. @amandaz reviewing rom&nd Slide In Single at 19:16 in a YouTube Shorts video
    rom&nd$5.25
    Slide In Single Eyeshadowshade · Mauve Dough
    • It quickly became just that perfect one and done creamy matte eyeshadow19:09
    • It is very very similar to a lot of the Western Beauty expensive expensive eyeshadows like in the quality, in the pigment, the creaminess, all of it19:16
    • It has a lovely blur to it
    • In general, I just find that it is skinloving as far as eyeshadows go19:30
    • A lot of matte eyeshadows, matte powders look weird on the eyes if you have dry skin or maybe you have more mature skin. And this just has this really lovely softening quality and blends like freaking nothing19:35
    • It is so foolproof and that's what I love about it19:50
    • The shade is just really pretty for green eyes, but it's still like not super saturated, which I like19:55
  18. @amandaz reviewing rom&nd Slide In Single Eyeshadow at 20:30 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Slide In Single Eyeshadowshade · Butter Ring
    • This is what is on my eyes today as like the shimmery wet glossy top coat20:15
    • It's pretty similar to something like Space Cowboy from Urban Decay, but I like it because it's even more there's like a softness to it. The particles are even finer20:30
    • It's a slightly more powder like formula than those. Like this feels more like a powder than like the locker shadows do. But something happens when it goes on the eyes. It just kind of it's wet looking eyes shadow but taken down a notch in a really lovely kind of approachable everyday way20:44
    • This is a glitter but it's subdued. It's taken a step down almost just to give this really soft reflection. And that's what I really, really love about it21:14
    • These formulas are better than any of the Romand palettes that I have tried. So, I think they're doing something different with these. I think the quality shows it21:25
    • It was one of the favorites of my entire haul when I went to Korea. So, highly recommend21:42
  19. @amandaz reviewing Clio Latte Senior Palette at 22:09 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Clio$49.90
    Pro Eye Palette Airshade · 08 Latte Senior
    • The reason I love this one is to me it's like these are like setting blurring powders in a variety of different shades and undertones22:00
    • I would say think of this almost as a highlight, contour, bronzing, blushing palette for your eyes22:09
    • Somehow it does everything22:20
    • You will be able to get just a lovely structured matte look to your eyes that looks professional with very little effort22:22
    • They offer this creamy blur to the skin22:31
    • I can kind of like create an entire shape on the eyes without it looking like I necessarily tried22:34
    • The smoothness of the formula, the quality of the shadows in all of these varying shades makes it so when you're building out a look, everything melts together so fantastic22:42
    • I think some of the most lovely K beauty products are the understated ones that like people aren't going to really go crazy about, but they're doing something that makes an entire makeup look like it just takes it to the next level. These are kind of like those secret weapon products22:59
  20. @amandaz reviewing fwee 3D Voluming Gloss at 23:59 in a YouTube Shorts video
    fwee$17.00
    • They are just the most plush, the glossiest, the most fill in the lines of your lips looking lip gloss that does not feel like incredibly waxy, sticky gloss23:43
    • They just create the most plush, juicy lip look23:59
    • There is no formula that I think is better than these on the market, period24:14
    • I love almost every single shade I have ever put on24:22
    • Fwee has come up with the incredible idea of coming out with 30% and 70% saturations for their lip products24:26
    • There just is not a single one that is of poor quality that doesn't have a really, really interesting, nuanced shade25:14
    • They just blow my mind every time I use them25:22
    • These are more nourishing and hydrating than a lot of those true like lip balm supposed to be reparative products25:33
  21. @amandaz reviewing fwee 3D Voluming Gloss at 24:42 in a YouTube Shorts video
    fwee$17.00
    3D Voluming Glossshade · Vanilla 30%
    • Vanilla 30% is like the perfect nearly nude kind of gloss for me24:42
  22. no still
    fwee$17.00
    3D Voluming Glossshade · Sorbet 70%
    • In the summer when I really want like a coral pop, I'll go for sorbet 70%
  23. @amandaz reviewing fwee 3D Voluming Gloss at 24:57 in a YouTube Shorts video
    fwee$17.00
    3D Voluming Glossshade · Scotch 30%
    • For this look, this is when I would probably go for like Scotch 30% just to add a little bit of glossiness to a matte lip look like this24:57
  24. @amandaz reviewing Unleashia Glossy Lip Balm at 25:55 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Unleashia$16.00
    • If you are into like, you know, summer Friday's lip butter balm, that's when I would go with the gloss balms from Unleashia25:48
    • These have a really lovely balminess to them25:55
    • This shade in particular, Malibu, is I think their lightest shade, but it's nonsticky, very plush on the lips, and it really sticks and lasts. like it really forms that protective barrier that you need in a lip product like this25:59
    • I think that brands like uh Lanz, if you've seen their glaze craze balms, like please just skip that and go straight to something like this because I was not expecting to love this as much as I do26:15
    • I think that they absolutely killed it with this formula26:29
  25. @amandaz reviewing TONYMOLY Get It Tint Glaze Balm at 26:59 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This has way more pigment. Think of it almost like a glossy, shiny, thicker lipstick because it has the pigmentation level of a lot of lipsticks, but it's just so so glossy26:38
    • It has a grip to it, so it's not going to move around. You don't have to worry about that26:59
    • It just looks plush on the lips27:00
    • With products like the Unleashia or even the 3D glosses from Flee, I just need my lips to look plush. I don't want them to look smaller, drier, more wrinkly, or even feel like that once they've started to fade off. That one just consistently looks really incredible27:02
  26. @amandaz reviewing ETUDE Fixing Tint at 27:41 in a YouTube Shorts video
    ETUDE$14.40
    Fixing Tintshade · Baked Pecan
    • Think of these as what everyone probably wished the 2016 liquid lipsticks would be27:34
    • These are slightly sheer. They're not quite as intense with creaminess with pigment. They don't feel necessarily like complete matte intensity thick paints. They're subtler. They're thinner27:41
    • I think that they are more blurring, but they also don't look pasty and thick on the lips27:54
    • They last really well28:02
    • They're just really lovely if you do enjoy something more matte, something that's going to last longer28:05
    • I only discovered them in the last couple of years and just since then, I just can't get enough28:12
  27. @amandaz reviewing rom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint at 28:29 in a YouTube Shorts video
    rom&nd$14.00
    Juicy Lasting Tintshade · Pomelo Skin
    • I love the shade Pomelo Skin. It is my holy grail5:15
    • It is the lip I used on my sister on her wedding day28:29
    • This is the most lovely lip stain. It is glossy. It is hydrating. It isn't really thick. It isn't too too creamy, but it has enough creaminess to give you good saturation and evenness to the stain28:41
    • It lasts so well, but it's also not one of those lip stains that is just immediately red28:57
    • I love that it is very subtle. It feels perfect for everyday29:12
    • The fact that I have so many lip stains and I've recommended this year after year should tell you guys enough. I just think it's fantastic29:29
    • I also love the shade dark coconut, but this has been kind of my ride or die29:38
  28. @amandaz reviewing rom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint at 29:38 in a YouTube Shorts video
    rom&nd$14.00
    Juicy Lasting Tintshade · Dark Coconut
    • I also love the shade dark coconut29:38
