  1. @bykristinastudio reviewing Danessa Myricks Beauty Liquid Blurring Balm Setting Spray at 01:17 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I used this up to the last drop. I'm pretty sure this is an incredible setting spray1:12
    • If you have oily skin, I could see this being a little bit intense for those that may already have dry skin1:17
    • You can feel it kind of drying the skin. Not in a bad way, in a really good way1:24
    • Sometimes I would just spray all over the face and then I would go in with a little puff or my sponge to really press into the skin and it works beautifully1:39
    • Loved it so much that I bought the full size1:55
    • If I can use a product that has less touch-ups throughout the day, I am sold1:59
  2. @bykristinastudio reviewing Maybelline Super Lock Brow Gel at 05:50 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This is a really nice brow gel, and I really liked this especially to use on my brows before filling them in because it didn't prevent the pencils from drawing onto my brow skin or my skin underneath my brows5:36
    • This, I would say, has medium hold compared to my go-to, which is Rare Beaut's flexible brow gel5:50
    • I was a little bit iffy at the beginning. And then I really, really liked it through like the bulk of its lifetime. And then towards the end, I was just kind of like dying to finish it up to be honest6:05
    • If you have very stubborn brow hairs like I do, it may not have enough hold for something like a lamination, but it's good enough hold for, you know, short periods of time6:15
  3. @bykristinastudio reviewing CANMAKE Creamy Touch Liner at 06:37 in a YouTube Shorts video
    CANMAKE$12.50
    • You guys know that this is my favorite eyeliner for tightlining my eyes6:27
    • This is great because it has a long lasting power to it in the tight line, which I find is very unique for a pencil liner, but this is going to be a gel and then it dries down completely6:37
    • It's also very long-lasting if you want to use it as like a micro wing6:47
    • It's very creamy. It never skipped through the lifetime of this. I never had an issue7:07
    • I was actually very surprised whenever I twisted this up and that was it. Because I was like, wait, this is still super creamy and it does not act like a regular traditional um sharpening eyeliner where it starts to get dry towards the end7:14
    • I bought backups of this whenever I was in Japan7:27
  4. @bykristinastudio reviewing peripera Ink Mood Glowy Tint at 08:09 in a YouTube Shorts video
    peripera$11.99
    • It's probably the very first like glossy lip stain that I had found that wasn't too pink, too red. It was a perfect kind of nudie pink shade for my complexion7:41
    • This was definitely my favorite lip stain out there if I was looking for staining power8:09
    • It doesn't stay extra shiny forever. It's not going to be the glossiest, but it does have really good staying power as a stain8:18
    • When I opened it up when I was going through my lip stains, it's like green and gross and it smells off. So, this definitely has gone bad8:29
  5. @bykristinastudio reviewing Too Faced Hangover Pillow Balm at 09:03 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Too Faced$26.00
    • This is still one of my favorite liquid lip balms that actually feels hydrating on the lips8:59
    • My favorite way to use this was before bed. I felt like this was a good alternative to a lip sleeping mask like the Lanz9:03
    • I think that it was a lot easier to use because it does come in this like joe9:09
    • I really loved this for the mango scent when I initially bought this9:36
    • But there is a point in time when I was using this every single night, like somewhere in the middle of this tube right here when the scent was just kind of nauseating9:52
    • It kind of smelt like dried spit. It was so gross10:04
    • After a couple of weeks or maybe a couple months even of not using this and then going back to it to finish it, it smelled good again to me10:12
    • I did end up purchasing the coconut the OG one during the Sephora sale10:24
  6. @bykristinastudio reviewing PanOxyl Acne Creamy Wash at 10:38 in a YouTube Shorts video
    PanOxyl$10.69
    • This is my go-to nighttime cleanser. The only thing that will keep my cluster breakouts at bay10:38
    • This definitely keeps the acne controlled
  7. @bykristinastudio reviewing Peach & Lily Ginger Melt Oil Cleanser at 11:38 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • An oil cleanser that I really, really love that is available at Ulta11:20
    • It is slightly thicker of an oil cleanser compared to something like the Dermalogica pre-clanse or like their prequel oil11:38
    • I like something a little bit more substantial whenever I'm using it to take my makeup off. I like something that feels a little bit spa-like
    • It removes makeup really well and it doesn't leave a film11:55
    • I'm pretty sure that I have emptied at least two bottles of this. This may be like my third one12:05
    • It really is such a good cleansing oil, and sometimes you can find this on sale, so I would recommend picking it up during those sales if you can12:08
  8. @bykristinastudio reviewing Tower 28 Beauty SOS Spray at 12:49 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This is my favorite hypochlorous acid to prep my skin for skin care and to kind of further help calm my skin from inflammation12:28
    • This helps to just calm my skin entirely. It is really great for those uses, but also if you have redness, if you have eczema, if you have any sort of skin inflammation, this is really great12:49
    • Tower 28 really is the one that I just like always go for. Feels like a very sophisticated spray, whether it be the bottle or just the way that they mix the hypochlorous acid13:04
  9. @bykristinastudio reviewing Prequel Universal Skin Solution Hypochlorous Acid Spray at 14:15 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This one is very comparable to the Tower 28 SOS spray
    • I didn't like the mister at first. I felt like it was too fine and it didn't spray in the center of the face13:36
    • I feel like some hypochlorous acids can leave a weird film or kind of like a hypochlorous acid scent on the skin. This does not do that. Neither does the Tower 28 one14:15
  10. @bykristinastudio reviewing VT Cosmetics PDRN Grinding Cleansing Balm at 15:05 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I love the component. But the con with this is that you don't know how much you have left
    • I feel like I kind of went through this a little bit fast14:55
    • It still was really nice as a cleansing balm. It is going to be a thinner texture when it comes to a cleansing balm15:05
    • It worked pretty much the same as any other cleansing balm that I've used and it's really good15:30
  11. @bykristinastudio reviewing VT Cosmetics Reedle Shot 100 at 15:44 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Reedle Shotshade · 100
    • This is a holy grail product for me15:39
    • I really feel like this transformed my skincare products and it makes absorption way more effective15:44
    • Ever since I started using this I feel like the texture of my skin is way better. It's way softer16:04
    • I do feel like I have to use less skincare products like less actives with this because it makes it that much more effective16:07
    • I have already repurchased another 100 level16:17
  12. @bykristinastudio reviewing Dieux Air Angel at 16:55 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This is one of my favorite moisturizers because it is just one of the most reliable moisturizers that I own or I owned
    • It's so nice because it feels lightweight, but it feels hydrating throughout the day16:49
    • It's great for acne prone skin because while it gives you a lot of hydration, it does not clog the pores and it feels very plush16:55
    • It's a very substantial gel cream. It's not just a gel where the hydration just disappears within the hour17:04
    • It goes on really well and it does absorb before going in with my sunscreen17:11
    • It's definitely my go-to when I'm breaking out and I need a non-irritating skincare moisturizer17:22
  13. @bykristinastudio reviewing Caudalie Vinoperfect Dark Spot Serum at 18:26 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I liked the way that this was more of a creamy serum and it didn't leave like a sticky plasticky feel like some dark spot serums can for the skin
    • It almost feels like a milky toner like one of those things17:54
    • Unfortunately, I feel like this didn't feel as effective as my other go-to dark spot correcting serums
    • I feel like this one just like didn't do as much. If anything, it just made my skin very soft. Maybe it helped with new dark spots, but I don't think it really faded any old dark spots
    • The reason why I'm so critical is because this is so expensive. So expensive. I could never justify purchasing this uh full priced18:26
    • If you don't have a lot of dark spots that are super super stubborn, and if what you're looking for is upkeep, like once you get a dark spot, you want it to go away like right away, this is great for that18:39
  14. @bykristinastudio reviewing Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream at 19:11 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This feels like a very thick oil and cream moisturizer19:06
    • At first when you pump it onto your hands or face, it feels super thick and kind of like it has a little bit of a tug to it. But once you really get in there and you warm it up, it kind of melts down into this oil texture and it melts completely into the skin19:11
    • Unfortunately on my face, acne prone again, I felt like it was a little too thick19:16
    • I loved this for my neck. It made my neck lines look less prominent. My neck lines look less dry. My neck in general look less dry. And it looked more soft19:44
    • There was something about this that made it look like I had some sort of soft diffused filter on my neck19:51
  15. @bykristinastudio reviewing COSRX Master Patch Intensive Set at 20:33 in a YouTube Shorts video
    COSRX$25.00
    • These are still my favorite pimple patches. They stay put20:28
    • They're kind of this oval shape. It's better than circular pimple patches because it fits in more areas that I need it to20:33
    • This specific one is really hard to find now. Like, it's out of stock on Ulta's website and it's been out of stock for so long21:09
    • I've tried so many pimple patches and this one by far is my favorite
  16. @bykristinastudio reviewing OSEA Body Oil at 22:08 in a YouTube Shorts video
    OSEA$52.00
    • This is like a cult classic21:49
    • My favorite way to use a body oil is to mix it with a more lightweight lotion because it makes the spreading the body oil way easier and you're way less greasy22:08
    • This one smells so good. So, it smells citrusy. It is a very tangy, very bright citrus22:30
    • This sweet cupcakey vanilla scent mixed with this citrus. It smells like a lemon vanilla cake. Like a lemon cake. Oh my goodness, it smelled so good23:39
  17. @bykristinastudio reviewing Oneskin OS-01 Body Moisturizer at 24:21 in a YouTube Shorts video
    OneSkin$99.00
    • I like this. It was an okay lotion24:19
    • I could see someone with super sensitive skin really benefiting from this because it really absorbed fast and it is fragrance-free24:21
    • If you are someone that showers in the morning, this could be very very optimal because it absorbs so quickly but not where it like disappears with the moisture. You know, like it stays in the skin24:39
    • For me, I like a body butter, a body oil, something thicker at night to really absorb into my skin24:51
  18. @bykristinastudio reviewing Garnier Fructis Hair Filler Conditioner at 32:57 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Garnier$9.99
    • This is a really great, very thick conditioner that actually makes the hair feel softer without weighing it down32:46
    • It's one of those conditioners where once you put it in the hair, you leave it for a couple minutes and then you rinse it out, your hair, like you can feel the slip32:57
    • I'm not sure if this is getting discontinued though because it's getting really hard to find now
    • I love this line from Garnier and I really hope they don't discontinue it because I find that it's very cleansing but not stripping on the hair33:15
    • It leaves me with a lot of nice clean volume and it feels like it softens the hair at the same time33:21
  19. @bykristinastudio reviewing Dove Bond Strength Mask at 33:56 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Dove$7.99
    • Smells so good
    • This leaves the hair incredibly soft as well without feeling mushy33:48
    • This gives me such intense moisture and it doesn't weigh down the hair and I feel like it makes my hair super super super shiny33:56
    • It's just the best. I love using a hair mask in the hair at least once a week or like every other week just to give a little extra something, you know?34:06
    • I really do feel like this makes such a big difference. It's definitely probably my favorite hair mask at the drugstore34:18
  20. @bykristinastudio reviewing SGX NYC Do-It-All Texture Spray at 34:53 in a YouTube Shorts video
    NYC$7.99
    • It smells very strong34:46
    • I think it has slightly less hold than what I wanted34:53
    • The scent was too strong for me to want to purchase this again34:56
    • It gave me a little bit of grit. If you have finer hair, this may be a good one for you, but my hair is quite heavy and I have a lot of it, so it didn't do enough for me, I think35:04
  21. @bykristinastudio reviewing Cocolab Floss at 35:51 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • Coco Lab floss is my favorite floss. It really gets in there because it is going to be like a braided string, I guess, that has coconut oil infused in it35:38
    • It really helps with the health of your gums and it really gets everything out of in between your teeth35:51
    • This helps so so so so much36:06
  22. @bykristinastudio reviewing Silcot Facial Cottons at 36:52 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Unicharm$10.99
    • These are the best cotton. They have the best thickness for toners and also DIY sheet masks36:18
    • And they're not linty. I hate linty cotton like that. This is great36:52
    • I also cut them in half and I use them every night to remove my mascara. It's the best36:59
  23. @bykristinastudio reviewing Moroccanoil Hand Wash at 37:16 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • I love the scent of Moroccanoil. So I was really really excited to use this in a hand wash versus hair product37:11
    • This is more of a thick gel texture hand wash. It wasn't too thick to where it was like hard to make it lather. You know, it had a really good lather and I thought it was good37:16
    • I love the smell of the Moroccanoil products. I think that it translated really well as a hand wash37:31
    • I wouldn't repurchase it though to be honest with you guys unless it was on sale. Like this is pretty expensive37:44
  24. @bykristinastudio reviewing Bath & Body Works Cactus Blossom Candle at 38:38 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This has a really nice, fresh, clean, slightly tropical fragrance to it38:27
    • Sometimes with Bath & Body Works candles, you guys, they can kind of like trigger a headache for me, but this one was really nice38:38
  25. @bykristinastudio reviewing Ulike Air 10 Deluxe at 03:11 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Ulike$369
    • The Ulike Air10 is the world's most advanced IPL device that utilizes something called dual lights as well as nextgen ice cooling technology2:58
    • It gives you visible results after just two weeks of use3:11
    • The Air10 stays at a really cool 65° throughout the entire treatment, which completely eliminates that like hot rubber band flicking feeling that can happen with other devices4:37
    • I've been able to use every single mode that this thing has comfortably through the weeks that I was using it4:49
    • I would genuinely recommend this device for that feature alone4:57
    • I truly feel like this device is worth it5:10
  26. @bykristinastudio reviewing Lume Whole Body Deodorant at 28:02 in a YouTube Shorts video
    Lume$14.99
    Whole Body Deodorantshade · Vanilla Bliss
    • I much prefer this method of application over any of the other ones27:30
    • This is going to be the Vanilla Bliss one. It's definitely my favorite scent from them28:02
    • The scent is a strong vanilla, but stay with me here, you guys. It has this sort of like stinky vanilla to it that works for the underarms28:06
    • I bought a three-pack of this, I think. So, I have another one that I've been using and it's just the best. It's so good
  27. @bykristinastudio reviewing Sol de Janeiro Delicia Drench Shower Oil at 29:07 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • Oh my gosh, it's so nice
    • This is going to be a shower oil that turns into a really good lather28:56
    • It leaves a very, very light film of moisturizing oil on the skin29:07
    • My favorite thing about this is definitely the scent. This is by far my favorite scent from Sol de Janeiro29:13
    • I would definitely buy this again, but it is very expensive29:50
  28. @bykristinastudio reviewing Fenty Skin Butter Drop Whipped Oil Body Cream at 30:25 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This is a really deeply hydrating body butter that also has oil infused in it that makes it really, really hydrating30:13
    • It is extremely moisturizing and it's not overly sticky. It's not overly heavy and thick on the skin30:25
    • I love this Fenty fresh scent30:31
    • For me, this is the definition of a perfect mix of a thick body butter and a body oil. This is truly a game changer for me30:50
    • It also leaves you with a lot of like glossy sheen, but overnight it absorbs into the skin, which is really nice30:56
    • I do feel like it's worth it. Like I really, really, really enjoy this body butter31:20
  29. @bykristinastudio reviewing Fenty Skin Butter Drop Hydrating Body Milk at 31:59 in a YouTube Shorts video
    • This is really great if you need a little bit of something with moisture and you don't want something that will stay sticky or maybe the body butters in general are just too thick for you31:44
    • I feel like this is like pretty much perfect when it comes to thickness in the heat31:59
    • If I'm going to lotion in the morning before I go out throughout the day, this is the perfect amount of moisture32:02
    • This is even better when you mix it with a body oil32:14
  30. @bykristinastudio reviewing Nara Dry Body Oil at 25:22 in a YouTube Shorts video
    NERRĀ$72.00
    • Another beautiful body oil. I get so excited thinking about this because I loved this one25:09
    • I forgot how much I loved this25:22
    • Oh my gosh, it's so good
    • This one smells very, very lovely25:54
    • I would definitely definitely repurchase this27:08
