  1. @christynicole reviewing Essence Glow Like Honey Dewy Primer at 01:10 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Essence$5.99
    • It's a gripping primer. So, from what I'm gathering here, it's a dewy plus gripping primer0:42
    • Ooh, I like the way that feels1:10
    • I actually feel like I didn't need to use this much because a little bit goes a long way with this1:15
    • The good thing is it's an affordable primer and a little bit goes a long way
    • To me, this kind of primer is not going to do anything for your pores, texture, acne, anything like that. I think it's just more so if you like a do and you like a grippy primer, here you go
    • The real test will be if it does work to make my makeup last longer
    • The glow like honey. I like a dewy primer, dewy products, and the fact that this is a grippy primer, I'm not mad at that0:38
  2. @christynicole reviewing L'Oreal Paris Infallible Cushion Foundation at 03:03 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • The foundation went on very nice over that primer. Nothing weird2:58
    • Because that foundation is a soft matte, it actually gave a really nice little glow to the skin. I like that3:03
  3. @christynicole reviewing Essence Balm of Sunshine Face and Body Glow Balm at 05:14 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Essence$6.99
    • It is glowy. like lots of glitter. If you're not into glitter, I would not use this4:08
    • But yeah, it's pretty nice. I'm not mad at it. And it's way more affordable
    • It's going on nicely. I just want a little bit of color here. You see that? It's giving some nice color5:14
    • And it didn't pick up so much product to where I'm going to sit here and have to blend out for 17 hours, which I like4:52
    • I feel like it is a little bit buildable, which is nice to use it on the body6:05
    • It is very hydrating, very glowy. So if you were not into that, I don't know if you would like this6:43
    • I feel like the body glow one is a little more glowy. I only say that I kind of like it a little bit more just because it doesn't have that glitter in it
    • I would like to play with it more to really give a get a full opinion7:18
    • But I do like how it's buildable. So that is nice
    • The only thing I'm a little skeptical about still is the face and glow face and body glow balm. I want to play with this more to get like a true opinion on it8:20
  4. @christynicole reviewing Sweet Sweet Shimmer Pink Glaze Cream Blush at 08:14 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • So, it goes on really easily and nicely by itself, not over the body glow8:01
    • However, because of the body glow, it is a face and body glow. It is blending very nicely8:14
    • But that is such a pretty color. I like that a lot8:23
    • It is buildable. This is so pretty. We are glowy and pinky8:33
    • But off first impression, I love that color
    • Um, it is pretty small, but I feel like a little bit goes a long way. It's affordable
    • I don't think I've ever heard of this brand, but I like it8:58
    • For a cream blush, this is really, really pretty
  5. @christynicole reviewing Makeup Revolution Conceal and Define at 09:03 in a YouTube Shorts video

    • I've been stuck on this concealer ever since
  6. @christynicole reviewing Essence Silky Blur Translucent Loose Setting Powder at 19:04 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • Oh wow, that is that is blurring. It's matte, but not overly matte10:26
    • Wow, that is so blurring. So blurring
    • This powder is blowing my mind19:04
  7. @christynicole reviewing Essence Radiant Light Face Palette at 12:46 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Essence$8.99
    • They all definitely have a glow to it12:14
    • Yeah, it definitely gives a subtle bronze glowy bronze to the skin12:46
    • This reminds me of it a little bit
    • It's subtle enough. It's not over the top again to where I'm like blending like crazy13:07
    • It almost looks airbrush. Like you don't have to overly blend, you know?13:29
    • Oh, that's pretty. It's a little more pigmented
    • It's more subtle, but it definitely has some glow to it. But again, it's not over the top. It's super super pretty. I love that shade13:58
    • Oh, the highlight's pretty, too. I feel like it's not overly glittery. I don't like a lot of glitter in my highlights. I like that. That is super pretty
    • There is some glitter. Okay, now that I'm up close, I can see a little bit of glitter, but you know what? It's not the obnoxious glitter, but there's definitely a little glitter in it, but not like super super over the top. I like that15:01
    • This palette is great. other than the fact that it broke19:22
  8. @christynicole reviewing Milani Make It Last Micro Fine Mist at 15:42 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Milani$10.99
    • I did not expect it to be this big. The other Milani setting sprays, I feel like they're smaller. This is nice
    • I have not had a makeup setting spray like this in a long time15:32
    • Ooh, it is definitely the micro fine15:42
    • I feel like the spray isn't aggressive. It's nice. It does have that fine spray
    • I feel like actually it dried super quick. I don't even need to fan myself
    • There isn't any like weird specks on my face. You know how sometimes you get those weird specks and kind of messes up your makeup. This looks good16:52
    • I like how fast it dried16:59
