This is a bestseller for a reason! Plenty of reviewers have mentioned the most common and best uses for it, so I'll just mention my personal favorite method: this absorbent little sponge works wonderfully to sheer out foundation when sprayed or dabbed with a bit of hydrating mist (or any other kind of treatment mist that suits your skin). It blends the foundation and mist together seamlessly. I like to do this later in the day if my skin is feeling a bit dehydrated or my foundation is beginning to settle into lines. Cleanup is a dream as well, and it can be easily disinfected. This is a very worthy addition to your cosmetics arsenal!

This is a game-changer. I've been perpetually searching for a foundation that provides substantial coverage, lasts all day, doesn't settle into fine lines or cling to dryness, doesn't require a litany of other products to prep and seal, and matches my hard-to-match skin color perfectly. Densiliss checks all of these boxes AND incorporates a powerful anti-aging treatment. This is the holy grail!

Consider how many hours you spend wearing foundation in an average day. If you're like me, you wear foundation that does very little (if anything) to improve the condition of your skin, instead opting to simply conceal imperfections. This treatment + foundation hybrid allows me to utilize all of the hours spent wearing makeup to simultaneously treat my skin. It's truly brilliant and a smart investment when viewed from this angle. I'm in the preventative part of the aging timeline (mid-twenties), and I love that I've found a product that helps me get an early start in the anti-aging game. I can't recommend this highly enough!

I don't usually purchase glossy lip products, but I took a chance after seeing this in beautiful shade 69. I love darker shades and couldn't resist! I'm so happy I made the purchase. It isn't dramatically shiny, especially when applied lightly as a tint rather than as a full-coverage color. The formula lasts for a few hours and wears off with food or drink, but the color disappears evenly without any of the unattractive patches or dryness left by most longwear lip products. Because of this, wearability is not an issue for me. It's easy to reapply on the go, no fuss or special tools required! I recommend shade 69 for those who like shades that lean toward the purple side of the spectrum. Don't be afraid of the color's intensity in the pot! It looks beautifully subtle when worn as a sheer tint, almost "my lips but better." It also works well on top of darker lipsticks, deepening the shade and adding gloss and dimension.

This will remove anything gently and quickly. I use it to remove waterproof eye makeup and longwear lip products with equal efficacy and zero irritation. It's a dream! I have tried many makeup removers, but this is the undisputed champion and a best-seller for a very good reason.

This is my very favorite full coverage foundation, bar none. It requires a bit of prep work, but the result is incredible and long-lasting. I like to prep my face by exfoliating (focusing on areas that foundation tends to cling to) and applying a hydrating moisturizer, waiting at least 10 minutes for my skin to absorb the product. I then apply a very small amount of the foundation with a brush (my preference is stippling, but beauty sponges also work well). You need much less product than you probably think, so apply very minimally and build until you reach the desired coverage. I find that I don't need a concealer or setting powder with this, nor do I apply a primer. The finish is beautiful! I can't recommend it enough, especially for special events or days when my skin requires more coverage.
