The foundation seems nice but I have some very very dry patches and extremely red cheeks. The foundation does have a difficult time covering extreme redness in my cheeks without building up too much, which is problematic with dry patches as it eventually will cling to it. I in no way like liquid to powder foundations, so this isn't my favourite foundation but it's not bad. I am very particular about foundation looking like skin and it does leave a powdery/velvety texture. Many of the videos of it covering permanent marker usually involves a large amount of product, something I just cannot bear to put on my face. It isn't my cup of tea. -
eos Organic Smooth Spheres Lip Balm
Cute packaging and flavours but the product itself was terrible, it hydrated my lips for about 5 minutes and then left a thick white line on my lips. Within an hour or two I found my lips peeling and in worse shape than before.

It's quite expensive but it makes skin look incredible despite being quite sheer. The powder is very finely milled so it doesn't have any glitter chunks but it gives a softly lit and slightly dewy look.
I like to set my under eye with the medium shade highlight a bit with the lightest and I am fair enough that I can use the darkest as a bronzer or to warm up my skin a bit, so this pallet has a bit of everything for me which is a huge bonus.

This product photographs absolutely amazing, and it makes small inperfections disappear (in photos only). So if you are a selfie fiend this may save you some time editing.
While I wouldn't consider this a necessity it's a great addition to my kit.

Amazing product, I purchased about 3 weeks ago after having a tough time finding a lighter/blonde shade that wasn't super warm, it matches beautifully and application is super easy with a liner brush and spoolie. I like that I can creat individual hairs and have a more natural look or make them a bit bolder and stronger. A little product goes a long way so I find it does have better value than a pencil (particularly for me as my brows are pretty sad and sparse on their own). I resisted buying this for years because I wasn't too sure of the hype around the product, but I can now say that it would have saved me a lot bad brow days from less than stellar products, I wish I would have tried it sooner. -

A great dewy foundation that looks like skin when it is on. It does need a primer (it doesn't stay well with heavy silicone based ones). I have both 110 and 120. I do like this foundation a lot but I find if I have any dry flaky patches it does cling, that being said for the price it's amazing, the coverage is light to medium but with a beauty blender I can build nicely over my super red cheeks. The only thing I don't like is that the undertones can become more pronounced after it dries particularly with 120, it becomes much more pinkish after it dries. -

I can't say enough good things about the Mia, I purchased mine about 4.5 years ago at Sephora. It was pricey but with how long it has lasted it was well worth it. It is white so the only downfall was the plastic has discoloured over time, that being said I use it nearly every day, so it's expected. This has performed way beyond my expectations and my skin has never been better, it's smooth and the number of breakouts I have has been reduced substantially. If it ever dies on me I would repurchase without a second thought, it's my HG skin tool. -
