Beauty Product Reviews
This foundation is fantastic!!
I bought this foundation after seeing that Tati reviewed it and said it was fabulous. I've worn it for a few days now, and I really love it. It doesn't feel heavy or look cakey even though it's full coverage. I like it more than the lancome teint idole or the makeup forever reboot foundation. The wear time has been really good too! I did notice that the product looked like it wasn't 100% mixed in the tube (I could see variations in color through the frosted tube), so I made sure to shake it a bit before using it.
For reference, I am in my late 30's and I have normal to dry skin. I use the foundation with the tarte smoothing primer just in the t-zone.
Works perfectly
I HATED the idea of spending so much on a dedicated concealer brush, but I hated the way I was applying my concealer before with a sponge even more! I tried a lot of different concealers over the last couple of years, but after I got this brush I realized it was the application technique that was the problem more than the concealer formula. The shape and density of the brush is great and personally I think it IS worth the investment.
Color stays put, great formula
The color and texture of this gloss is divine. It is not a gloss that's totally lightweight, but the color payoff is great and it is very comfortable. It's not sticky and is a great product.
Lily is the perfect nude!
This lipstick is ridiculously comfortable and the color is very flattering. It's a winner!
Love this
I have heard so many people love this product but waited forever to try it. I'm so glad I did!! I have used it on the high points of my face under makeup and as a highlighter over makeup and they both look good. I don't like using this all over the face under makeup. I haven't tried it as a mix in to foundation, but I definitely plan to because I think it would work beautifully that way too! It's a gorgeous product.
LOVE IT!
I bought this after hearing YouTuber Jessica Braun raving about it. It's beautiful on my skin tone and is the perfect level of highlighter for me. It was my first RMS product but it won't be my last. Gorgeous!! With how little product you use at a time this will last forever too!
Gorgeous!
This is my first hourglass face palette and it did not disappoint. I really love all of the shades and they are all useful for my skin tone (I was a little worried the bronzer wouldn't work because I'm fair/light). You wouldn't think a couple of powders could make your makeup look so much better, but the only thing I've changed in my routine is swapping out a few products so I can use my new palette and I've been having GREAT makeup days!
I am sad that hourglass only released one version of this product because it won't work for darker skin tones and I always thought Hourglass was BETTER than that. I hope all of the criticism hourglass has received about this product will be taken to heart and this mistake won't happen again.
Meh
It was hard to change the lipstick inserts and the "ghost" packaging just looks cheap. You're better off buying the original version rather than this holiday edition.
Amazingly soft and beautiful!
I've previously purchased Wayne Goss' eye collection as well as several of the face brushes. When I saw this launch I really wanted to try them but hoped I would regret my decision because I already have and use his brushes exclusively. Well...they came today and they do NOT disappoint!! The shape of the 25S powder brush is so unique -- I love it! I've always skipped fan brushes before but the 24S is thicker and I can actually see myself using the brush. In the launch video Wayne said you could use this brush in up and down motions for foundation....I'm going to try it! The 26S blender eye shadow brush has a different shape than the similiar brush in his natural hair eye collection set and I think I may find myself using this to blend in concealer because it's the perfect shape for it. The pencil brush is a little bigger than 05 precision pencil brush and I can definitely see myself using this all the time!! Whether the synthetic set is your first Wayne Goss purchase or you already have some of his brushes, I think this set would be a great addition to any makeup lovers collection!!!
I'm a believer!
I ordered several Wayne Goss brushes and they are all winners. I echo the reviews others have left where they say watching his videos about the brushes help. I thought this brush was too small when I first got it, but after re-watching a few videos I learned how to use it correctly and love this brush more than when I initially took it out of the wrapper.
