  1. @andreamatillano reviewing Makeup Revolution The True Icon Palette at 01:21 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • The Revolution Beauty the True Icon palette is a really good alternative to Patrick Ta's Major Dimension 21:06
    • I actually like this formula better1:21
    • I actually like Makeup Revolution's metallic formula better than Patrick Ta's1:29
    • These definitely give more of like a wet looking finish1:40
    • I've ended up using this one so much more than Major Dimension 21:49
    • I like this formula better. I really, really do2:10
    • This palette is so fast and easy to use3:09

  2. @andreamatillano reviewing Tower 28 Beauty Go-Go Cooling Shimmer Stick at 04:11 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I recently picked this up and I love it. It is so beautiful4:08
    • It's an interesting texture. It's kind of like a jelly creamy type shadow that gives your eyes like that wet looking shine4:11
    • It dries very quickly and then it stays in place extremely well4:20
    • I actually prefer this over like a traditional cream shadow because it goes on in a similar way, but it's lighter weight and it dries down quickly and then again doesn't move throughout the day4:22
    • You can go in with a lighter layer. You can kind of build it up4:35
  3. @andreamatillano reviewing Catrice Drunk'n Diamonds Eyeshadow Stick at 05:30 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • In my opinion, this is like the exact same formula5:26
    • It goes on in the same way. It wears in the same way5:30
    • You get that wet looking sheen5:33
    • Both formulas last really well throughout the day without any creasing or fading or smudging5:43
    • You could buy all three of the Catrice ones for pretty much the same price as the Tower 28 one5:56
    • There really is no difference in the way they apply and wear throughout the day6:22
  4. @andreamatillano reviewing Catrice Soft Glam Baked Blush at 06:55 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Catrice$8.00
    • They did a spot-on dupe for the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Luminous Powder Blushes6:51
    • Both formulas are kind of like that very light kind of soft baked formula. They are basically like blush highlighter hybrids6:55
    • Catrice has twice the amount of product8:07
    • The value really can't be beat with the Catrice alternative8:17
    • They're spot-on identical. There really are no differences8:49
  5. @andreamatillano reviewing Makeup Revolution Bouncy Blur Blush at 11:41 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • These are such a good dupe
    • I actually prefer the Revolution beauty formula because I do like when my cheek products give a little bit of a glow
    • It looks so flattering on the skin, but it combines that with like the smooth airbrushed effect that you get from the Rare Beauty blushes
    • They both have like that bouncy, squishy, kind of like putty creamy formula, which is obviously just fun to play with10:52
    • They both give just such a gorgeous smooth look to the skin11:41
    • They do last on the skin very, very well12:32

    • It's still like that gorgeous glowy hydrating formula that looks really beautiful on the skin15:23
  7. @andreamatillano reviewing Hard Candy Lip Butter Glowy Balm at 16:46 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • These are basically identical to the summer Fridays lip balms16:37
    • These smell really, really close16:46
    • I almost think this formula is maybe the most similar to Summer Fridays17:57
    • This one has like the same thin glossy feel that the Summer Fridays lip balm has18:02
    • I really think they nailed this formula18:28
    • In my mind, it truly is a spot-on dupe18:29
    • Every time I wear it, I'm more convinced. Like, yeah, that is the exact same thing18:32
    • I compared the ingredients. They are very very similar18:35

    • I actually like this formula better than E.L.F.'s formula19:35
    • It leaves my skin feeling hydrated. It locks my makeup into place so well19:43

    • I love this product. I use it a lot as an actual priming spray, especially during the winter, because it does leave my skin feeling super hydrated22:06
    • It performs identically
    • The mist isn't as nice... it feels so good on the skin. It allows you to apply the product very evenly23:07
  10. @andreamatillano reviewing Hard Candy Glow on Lock Setting Spray at 24:35 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I actually prefer the Hard Candy one24:07
    • The mist on the Hard Candy setting sprays is just it's perfect. It's fine. It's comfortable, very, very gentle24:35
    • The Hard Candy shimmer is so fine that I feel like it does look glowy, but more so like a full-on illuminated glow rather than like a lot of shimmer or glitter25:16
    • I think the Hard Candy one is actually much more flattering on the skin25:39
    • I would reach for this one over the iconic London one pretty much every single time25:54
    • I think the Hard Candy one is better for all of the reasons I listed26:41
  11. @andreamatillano reviewing Scent Theory Hand Sanitizer Spray at 28:39 in a YouTube Shorts video

    • They have amazing scents
    • I actually prefer the way these smell. They're strong, but they're not quite as intense28:39
    • These are just as cute. They're slim, compact28:50
