  1. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing MAKEUP BY MARIO Surreal Skin Natural Finish Foundation at 01:02 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This gives me like medium coverage. It has a natural matte finish, and it does kind of self-set, which I really like0:50
    • If I need something that's going to last me a really long time, like I have a full day, this is what I'm going to use1:02
    • It has become a favorite for me
    • I need something that's a little bit more matte and long-wearing, and this foundation does it1:33
  2. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Saie Air Tint at 02:00 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Saie$30.00
    • This has so much coverage, you guys. I'm always shocked by this1:46
    • Sometimes this is a little pink on me, but the coverage on this, the finish on this is just so beautiful2:00
    • It's also just an easy product2:05
    • You can build up the coverage if you want. You can also shear it out2:21
    • It's a nice natural, matte, kind of self-setting moment2:34
  3. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Haus Labs Skin Tech Concealer at 03:18 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • It's creamy and like hydrating without being like greasy, without settling into the fine lines3:12
    • It has perfect coverage. I just love it3:18
    • 4N is a perfect neutral shade for me3:23
  4. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Kulfi Main Match Concealer at 03:36 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Kulfi$26.00
    • Another great kind of neutral leaning cool concealer that I just think is a perfect tone3:31
    • This is also really creamy. I think this actually has maybe a little bit more coverage than the House Labs one3:36
    • I love those concealers with just a little bit of what feels like a bounce to it and like a flexibility to it. I find they just work really well under the eyes and kind of move and live with your skin throughout the day while also giving amazing coverage3:41
  5. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing NARS Soft Matte Concealer at 04:23 in a YouTube Shorts video
    NARS$36.00
    • I can just dip my brush in here and just pinpoint it right on a red spot, anywhere I want a little bit more coverage4:17
    • And because it's matte, it has great lasting power and it kind of blends itself. It really like blurs4:23
    • I don't like using this under my eyes, though. It's a little drying, it's a little stark. I wouldn't do that. But around the face, it's really good4:36
  6. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Hourglass Vanish Primer at 04:48 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I've used this for a while and it really does mattify and fill in some of the pores4:56
    • When my skin's in really tough condition, I need some smoothing, I need something that's really going to mattify or be long-wearing, I will go in with the Hourglass Vanish4:48
  7. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray at 05:24 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I've gone through bottles and bottles at this point5:23
    • I really feel like this adds an invisible layer onto my makeup that does make it last longer5:24
    • It doesn't necessarily like mattify it, but it kind of gives it this flexible hold that I feel like, even when I'm getting oily throughout the day, my makeup isn't like breaking up5:30
    • It's different, let me tell you and I can tell the days when I use this and when I don't5:38
    • It helps with my oily skin so much5:52
  8. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing MAKE UP FOR EVER HD Skin Setting Powder at 06:23 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • Why I love it, it's super finely milled and it has the powder puff built in, which is just really nice6:02
    • To set my makeup, again, it really smooths everything out6:23
    • I find with a lot of powders, even if they're translucent, they kind of like turn my makeup pink or they'll like change the tone of my foundation. And I found with this one that it doesn't do that6:33
  9. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Tower 28 Beauty Pressed Setting Powder at 07:15 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • You cannot detect this on the skin at all. It just removes shine. Really, really love it7:10
    • It's a delicate powder, okay? It doesn't have a mirror or it would be perfect for a purse like touch-up powder7:15
    • But even with those issues, I go back to this because it really, truly doesn't add actually what feels like any more powder. It just gets rid of the shine. It's like truly invisible, I'm telling you, so good
  10. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Sarah Creal Cream Bronzer at 07:41 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I love this thing so much. This cream formula is kind of balmy. It's a little bit thin and it does blend out really, really easily7:35
    • It has a nice like skin-like sheen to it, which I really, really love while being kind of natural7:41
  11. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing REFY Cream Bronzer at 08:15 in a YouTube Shorts video
    REFY$28.00
    Cream Bronzershade · Dune
    • Compared to the Saie Sun Melt Cream, I feel like this one's slightly more mattifying, so if that is important to you, maybe go with this, but they're very, very similar formulas to me8:09
    • And they're kind of my go-to cream bronzers in the summer8:15
  12. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Kosas Baked Bronzer at 08:27 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • If you're looking, that one's shimmery and baked, but I'm telling you, I'm kind of on the prowl for something new8:27
  13. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Rhode Pocket Blush at 08:39 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Rhode$25.00
    Pocket Blushshade · Tan Line & Freckle
    • I feel like this is the one that gets the most play for me, you guys8:35
    • Specifically, the shade Tanline is my fave. I love it. It kind of gives you that burn sun-flushed kind of look8:39
    • I also really do like Freckle as well. It's a little bit warmer8:46
    • They're super creamy, blend out easy8:52
    • I feel like it's one of those products that the internet talks about a lot and is like viral and it's in everyone's things, but it deserves it. It's very good8:56
  14. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Westman Atelier Baby Cheeks Blush at 09:25 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • Honestly, a perfect cream blush formula to me. A nice natural finish9:21
    • It's definitely not balmy, glossy, glassy, too moist on the cheeks, so it has some great lasting power9:25
    • I also feel like the pigment to the formula is perfect, so you don't have to like build it up a ton, but it's also really easy to blend out as well9:32
    • These are minis I got in like a limited edition set. And if you can get them in minis, I also recommend that. They work really well and you can save a little money9:35
  15. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Tower 28 Beauty Beachplease Blush at 10:01 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This is more of a sticky cream formula, but it has a great pigmentation, great lasting power, there are tons of different shades9:55
    • I love the sheen this gives. Again, because there's enough pigment, you can actually get enough color without having too glossy or too sticky of anything on your cheeks10:01
    • It just gives them like a really nice healthy glow
    • I feel like this is perfect for any time, but especially on easy natural everyday looks, this is so good
  16. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Glossier Cloud Paint Plush Blush at 10:23 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • If you want more of like a matte blurred look, I really do like these Glossier, uh, what do they call them? Cloud Paint Plush blushes10:23
    • I feel like this is just a really nice putty formula
  17. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Sarah Creal Blurring Mousse Blush at 11:04 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • It also kind of gives that like moosey kind of feel, blurring matte, but it's pressed in here10:57
    • Ooh, so so pretty. This is the shade sunshine11:04
    • I have a feeling this one's going to become a favorite, new, so disclaimer there, but quality, beautiful11:13
  18. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Gucci Blush at 11:51 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Blush De Beauteshade · 03 Radiant Pink
    • This is kind of that classic pink I was talking about that I really feel like just brightens up the face11:35
    • Sometimes by the end of my look I feel like the blush is gone. Like all these other products have eaten it, the color is not there. I need some lift, I need some life. That's where you come in with this powder blush and you just tap it on the apples of your cheeks. Stunning, beautiful11:51
    • This is technically a matte blush, but I feel like it has a little life to it, okay? Nothing shimmery, nothing glowy12:03
    • Just a no-fuss product that looks beautiful every single time. Every single time. Can't go wrong12:17
  19. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Kosas Pop Nano Eyebrow Pencil at 13:01 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Kosas$23.00
    • If you want precision, this is the pencil for you. I miss this brow pencil12:52
    • You can really get those hair-like strokes13:01
    • I like the shade taupe. It's a nice cooler blonde shade13:03
    • I feel like that's the one brow product right now that I'm like hell yeah. Love that thing13:21
  20. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing ILIA Shadow Stick at 14:02 in a YouTube Shorts video
    ILIA$33.00
    Eye Stylus Shadow Stickshade · Beam & Opulent
    • I love this for just a nice glow on the lids. It adds some light and dimension13:51
    • I feel like this formula of shimmer, cuz it's not like sparkly, is perfect for every day
    • This formula doesn't like dry down, lock down, suck onto your lids. So, I feel like it's forgiving, even if it isn't completely crease-proof14:02
    • And yeah, an empty shadow stick for me, I mean, that's a big deal, so love these14:11
  21. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Merit Cream Shadow at 14:30 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Merit$26.00
    • This one locks down a little bit better, though, I would say. It's a great one-and-done shadow14:27
    • Again, just looks really flattering on the lids. Adds some light, adds some brightness14:30
  22. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Merit Shade Studio Cream Shadow at 14:46 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Merit$26.00
    • I love this all alone as a one-and-done. I love it as a base14:45
    • It gives my lids like this sueded look, and it kind of mimics the look of like bronzer all over the lid14:46
    • It always looks really like smooth, really well blended14:53
  23. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Armani Beauty Eye Tint at 15:26 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This one's a little bit more on the moosie side. So, I feel like it kind of has the properties of more a cream than a liquid. It makes the shadow so easy to blend out15:17
    • It just adds a nice neutral base, and I love that this formula is kind of flexible15:26
    • Again, it dries down, and it's going to wear really nicely throughout the day because it doesn't get too dry and like kind of cracky15:29
    • This is truly truly good15:44
  24. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Prada Eyeshadow Quad at 16:07 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • It's very pricey, but I think this formula is amazing. It's a powder, but it's very velvety, and it almost feels like a cream. It's really smoothing. It blends out beautiful15:56
    • I mean, look at the dent. I mean, by far one of my most used palettes last year, if not my most used palette. I couldn't put it down, honestly16:07
    • I loved this just all over the lid16:14
  25. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing MAKEUP BY MARIO Ethereal Eyes Palette at 17:04 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This palette has stood the test of time. I love the mattes in here. Love the tones in here. I love the sparkles that are in here16:48
    • It's only become something I use more and more17:04
    • When I'm talking about things that aren't junk, like this is one of those makeup items that feels so worth it to me in my collection17:08
    • The mattes are super buttery, they blend really, really well, and again, they have like three topper shades in here17:17
    • I'm super happy this is back16:40
  26. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Yves Saint Laurent Couture Palette at 17:44 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I really love the YSL formula, so I was intrigued17:30
    • I really love the shimmer that's in the middle here. The quality is nice on this17:44
    • It's probably going to be best for like medium or even deeper skin tones17:50
  27. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Yves Saint Laurent Eyeshadow Quad at 18:11 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This shade all over my lid, just that, looks so beautiful
    • It's just enough, just enough to look done up and like enhanced without being too much18:07
    • It's more the cool-tone version than that Prada one is a little bit warmer18:11
    • It still has a beautiful sparkly shade. Love a sheer sparkle and a deeper shade to like add a wing or kind of deepen it up if I want to go there18:15
  28. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Caliray Come Hell or High Water Tubing Mascara at 18:41 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Caliray$25.00
    • I am obsessed and I can't stop, okay?18:37
    • I think I might prefer the brown shade. It's not too warm, but it's also not too close to black. Like, it actually is softer18:41
    • I really love this tubing formula because it's easy to get off at night, but it doesn't make my lashes look all freaky. They just look normal, like just the best18:49
    • If you haven't tried this yet and you've been wanting to, you're looking for a new mascara, this is the one. This is the one19:02
  29. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing EADEM Peptide Lip Balm at 19:24 in a YouTube Shorts video
    EADEM$24.00
    Le Chouchou Lip Softening Balmshade · Sakura Shaved Ice
    • So good. Smells really nice, too. It's like a vanilla marshmallowy kind of scent19:20
    • These are super hydrating. They have a nice glassy glossy shine. They feel plush and cushiony on the lips19:24
    • I love the metal tip and like this is the one I recommend19:30
  30. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing La Mer The Lip Volumizer at 19:55 in a YouTube Shorts video
    La Mer$90.00
    • It's like a liquid lip glassy lip balm. It's so good and it works so well with lip liner19:41
    • That balm, it doesn't have too much shine to it, so I feel like it doesn't look like too much on my lips. I do recommend that19:55
  31. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Kosas Lip Liner at 20:29 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • For an everyday matte long-wear, love this one from Kosas, specifically the shade mega. It looks so good20:23
    • But this one locks down, okay? This one is not budging. It's not moving. It almost turns liquid lipstick like on the outer edges20:29
    • I really like this cool-toned pink. It kind of looks a little like contoury. I love that it's not too warm20:36
    • And that's a pretty big feat because I normally don't like a twist-up lip liner20:45
  32. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Charlotte Tilbury Lip Liner at 21:03 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Lip Cheatshade · Pillow Talk Medium
    • I love this, especially if I want a more done-up lip. This photographs really well. This looks good for like going out20:58
    • Again, it has some great lasting power21:03
    • I find this looks a little more red on my lips or like berry, so it has a little more color and it's just absolutely beautiful. Love love love love love love
    • I have two, one stays in my purse, one stays with me and then makes its way to my purse also21:15
  33. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing NARS Lip Liner at 21:31 in a YouTube Shorts video
    NARS$26
    • It's a pencil liner which I really love. Love this color though21:25
    • I have a type. I have a style that I like and you know, I just stick with it and it looks so good21:31
  34. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing MAKE UP FOR EVER Artist Pencil at 21:55 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I've been using this Make Up For Ever pencil. This is one of the Artist pencils, but it's in a new shade called taupe and I will use that and line the outer lip and blend my way around21:46
    • So I'm really getting something soft and buffed around the edges21:55
  35. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing VIOLETTE_FR Matte Bisou Balm at 22:28 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Bisou Balmshade · Matte
    • These are a beautiful matte formula. Highly recommend these
    • I feel like they're the easiest way to add some color onto your lips without really feeling it22:25
    • They're very matte, very blurry. Um they can be a little drying, I will say, but I don't find it to be a big deal for me22:28
    • They feel almost like weightless on my lips22:34
    • I do recommend the brighter colors in these cuz I just think they look so chic22:51
    • I love Mon Cheri. Oh, so good. The most beautiful kind of muted red23:01
    • This is Bonbon Cocolicot, something like that. So so pretty23:06
    • And then that last one is Betise. Love all the red shades. I honestly recommend all three of those red shades. I wear them all. I love them23:16
    • They have that perfect amount in the inner part of the lip without being glossy and I highly recommend these
  36. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Merit Sheer Lip Liner at 24:02 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Merit$24.00
    Signature Lip Sheer Lip Linershade · Beverly Hills
    • I really love the Merit glossy, I know, lip liner. It's so pretty23:55
    • Specifically when I really have nothing on. If I add some lip liner that actually has pigment, basically any of these ones, it can look a little heavy. So this is a perfect for that24:02
    • I love the gloss too because it adds like a plumping look. It like makes your lips look a little bit bigger. So good24:12
    • I've been through one of these repurchase. Love it24:19
  37. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing REFY Lip Blur Lip Liner at 24:29 in a YouTube Shorts video
    REFY$22.00
    Lip Blur Lip Linershade · Berry & Opal
    • These are kind of similar in some ways to these ABH balms because they are a more blurring and like matte lip liner, but I love this24:20
    • This is the shade Berry. This is a beautiful red for me. I love this all over the lips24:29
    • Basically what the Rhode lip liners do, but I feel like these are better. Those are very creamy. These are a little more solid in form and they're only semi-opaque which I just think looks really natural24:42
    • You can blend them and get kind of a pouty blurred lip line lip liner look24:54
  38. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing AESTURA ATOBARRIER365 Cream at 25:43 in a YouTube Shorts video
    AESTURA$32.00
    • It's the most perfect everyday moisturizer25:41
    • I do mostly use it at night unless I'm not going to put makeup on in the day because this is a little too hydrating, like nothing would stay on my face25:43
    • I have very sensitive skin, again, really redness prone, rosacea, and this always makes my skin feel so smooth, feels so hydrated25:57
    • Sometimes it just feels really soothing on my skin. I love it. My husband loves it as well26:02
    • I've gone through like three or four of these now26:11
  39. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops at 26:32 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • They're lightweight enough for my oily skin, but it still gives me a nice glow, but it kind of seals it in, so it doesn't make me more oily throughout the day
    • I know if I put this under my makeup as my moisturizer, my makeup's going to last and look great all night26:28
    • I love these. I've been through countless bottles of these26:32
  40. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Farmacy Green Clean Cleansing Balm at 19:04 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Farmacy$36.00
    • I take all my makeup off with the Farmacy cleansing balm. Again, I've gone through so many of these, but this is basically the only way I take my makeup off now in the shower
    • This is the best cleansing balm19:04
  41. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Youth to the People Adaptogens and Snow Mushroom Oat Oil Lipids Vitamin Super Shroom Calm Cleanser at 27:29 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • My skin, again, it's been in crisis mode. It needs something super calm, like really gentle, and I feel like this is one of the most gentle cleansers out there
    • If you didn't put any makeup on throughout the day and you just want to kind of get a nice refresh without stripping your skin, I think this one's great27:18
    • This one almost feels like you're using not quite a conditioner cuz it doesn't leave like any oily residue behind, but it's more akin to washing your face with a conditioner than it is with like a traditional cleanser27:29
    • I didn't know if I would want to repurchase this, but I'm glad it came back into my life and I've been using it and loving it, so I wanted to shout it out27:41
  42. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing K18 AirWash Dry Shampoo at 28:20 in a YouTube Shorts video
    K18$48.00
    • If you have an oily scalp, oily hair, and you use dry shampoos, and you haven't tried this, I highly recommend it
    • It's a liquid, so it's not in an aerosol. It's not going to put powder on your hair in a traditional way. Instead, it's liquid. You only need a few sprays, and extremely fast this dries and sucks up all the oil. It's just gone. It is amazing28:08
    • I use so much less dry shampoo than I ever did. I mean, I would go through bottles of dry shampoo like at least two a month28:20
    • It is so good, like a miracle product for my hair28:30
  43. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing CYKLAR In Shower Body Balm at 29:30 in a YouTube Shorts video
    CYKLAR$29.00
    In-Shower Body Oil Balmshade · Vanilla Verve
    • I'm not a big lotion girl, and I love this product, which is absolutely shocking and surprising to me29:23
    • You use this after the shower when you're still wet, and you put it on your wet skin, and it kind of like emulsifies in and just leaves you nice and hydrated29:30
    • It's like you lotioned before even getting out of the shower, so you can kind of skip that step if you want to, or you can add to it if you want29:38
    • It's such a nice product, kind of innovative, I feel like, and it really does hydrate29:46
  44. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing CYKLAR Body Oil at 29:58 in a YouTube Shorts video
    CYKLAR$38.00
    • Sometimes I will layer it with the body oil, or I'll use them separately, and I think this is a great body oil29:55
    • It also just smells, I'm telling you, so good. I feel like the vanilla verb maybe smells the best in the body oil29:58
    • Getting ready for bed, which is when I tend to use it, it just smells so good, and I feel just nice and moisturized30:04
  45. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser at 30:27 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • If you get any of those bumps or keratosis pilaris, I really do love this. I've gone through many of them30:21
    • I do think you should get one of the scented ones, because alone, it's kind of a funky scent, cuz it has AHA in it30:27
    • It's a really fine, almost sand-like texture, so very gritty, and so it's doing physical exfoliation, chemical exfoliation30:32
    • I will put this on, really scrub it in, and then I'll let it set for like a few minutes, just kind of doing that chemical magic as well. And my arms are so smooth, they look great. Highly recommend30:37
  46. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Salt & Stone Body Wash at 31:03 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Body Washshade · Bergamot & Hinoki
    • The Salt & Stone to me is kind of just the go-to. I think it's just a great everyday body wash30:58
    • Really love the bergamot and hinoki scent if you want something that's like woody and aromatic and kind of musky31:03
  47. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing &honey Rich Rinse Serum Body Wash at 31:27 in a YouTube Shorts video
    &honey$22.99
    • It's like a serum body wash. I really find this to actually leave my skin hydrated, not oily, there's no film, but I can definitely tell that it's truly actually hydrating my skin more than a normal body wash31:15
    • If you have dry skin or that sounds like something that would be great, I would check this one out31:27
  48. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing Glossier You at 31:51 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • It's kind of basic, but man, if I'm wearing this, I'm probably going to get a compliment31:48
    • It's a musky, powdery, iris scent. It has that addictive muskiness that I just love31:51
    • Even when I can't smell it anymore, it's still on my clothes. And again, everyone else can smell it. I feel like it lasts a really long time31:56
    • It feels fresh and clean without being soapy. It feels more like skin and kind of lived in at the same time32:04
  49. @laurenmaebeauty reviewing DedCool Mochi Milk at 32:28 in a YouTube Shorts video
    DedCool$90.00
    • It's a perfect vanilla to me. It's a skin scent kind of vanilla. It's not too sweet, but it's definitely still kind of fluffy32:21
    • I believe there's marshmallow in here. There's a peach note, so it has a little bit of lift and fruitiness from that, but there's also incense. So, it's still kind of grounded, not smoky by any means32:28
    • So beautiful. Again, another easy wear, I feel like32:38
