I #gotitfree in exchange for my honest review. YSL is one of my favourite luxury beauty brands, so I was thrilled to receive this mascara. It is housed in a thick tube with a bold metallic YSL logo--it's the kind of packaging that you'll be excited to pull out of your purse and show off! The wand has standard, straight bristles. This mascara is waterproof and will not budge unless you use a makeup remover or oil. I found that it gave my lashes a beautiful, dark black tint and was great for lengthening and thickening. However, it did not hold a curl very well. I would recommend this mascara if you are looking for a luxury purchase; however, it is really pricey at $40 CAD. That is difficult to justify for a mascara which you have to throw out and replace every 3-6 months. -

Nectarine Petal is a beautifully light, fresh scent. I did not detect much nectarine, surprisingly, but it smells like clean laundry. Definitely a skin scent--not much projection or sillage even after freshly applying. The scent completely disappears after 1-2 hours on me. Although I do enjoy the fragrance, the lack of longevity is a reason why I might be hesitant to recommend it. However, if you enjoy layering perfumes, this would be a good pick for a fresh floral. Great for Spring!

I received this product for free from ChickAdvisor in exchange for my honest review. I am very impressed by these pods. As an avid iced coffee drinker, my expectations were definitely exceeded with this product! As with all Keurig cups, this one was easy and quick to make. The flavour is bolder than I was expecting but in a good way! I really enjoyed taste-testing this coffee and would recommend it if you want to save some money and skip your daily Starbucks run. -
COVERGIRL Clean Fresh Tinted Lip Balm - You're The Pom

I #gotitfree in exchange for my honest review. I like this product, but I prefer it in the crystal clear formulation. This one is very pigmented and you have to be careful when applying it, or else you face the risk of it looking like clown makeup. I prefer my lip balms to be no-fuss so I can apply them on the go, which is not the case for this specific shade. -

I #gotitfree in exchange for my honest review. I enjoy using this lip balm; it is effective and compact so it currently lives in my purse. I like the silky-smooth texture on my lips, which leaves them feeling equally smooth. My only complaint is that the formula is not hydrating, so it does not improve the appearance/texture of my lips. -

COVERGIRL Clean Fresh Hydrating Concealer
I #gotitfree in exchange for my honest review. This is a serviceable concealer. I appreciate that it is cruelty free and isn’t cakey. However, it is difficult to blend it in seamlessly and the lightest shade is still too dark for me.

I #gotitfree in exchange for my honest review. This product had been on my wish list for a while. It sounded super promising and right up my alley—I love a light coverage foundation and I’m vegan! But this skin milk smells bad (like bread) and doesn’t blend into the skin. It pilled up in balls and looked like a streaky mess when I tried to blend it out. 10/10 do not recommend. -

I #gotitfree in exchange for my honest review. This mascara is just…okay. I don’t like it nearly as much as the Covergirl Exhibitionist mascara. This one does not clump but it also doesn’t lengthen or volumize my lashes very significantly. I appreciate that it is a clean formula though, and it is available at a good price point. -

I #gotitfree in exchange for my honest review. This pressed powder comes in a very aesthetically pleasing light-pink plastic compact. The product itself is lacklustre, though—it doesn’t seem to make much of a difference to the texture and longevity of my makeup when I wear it. It also leaves a slight white cast. I would not recommend this product unless you are very pale. -
