Review: Daiso Face Washing Brush (Pink)

Product: Daiso Face Washing Brush

This is a cute pink face washing brush that you grip between your fingers and use with your facial wash as a manual exfoliator. 

What I like about it:

Cute and nifty product, the bristles are synthetic rubber but very soft.

I find it easy to use and it feels like I am getting a deep clean when using it (but possibly because you pay more attention to cleansing when you use it).

After use, I find my skin softer and brighter. I also think that the facial massage helps to increase blood circulation and give you a glow.

What I dislike about it:

It is designed to stick on your mirror but it does not do so. I just store it in a clear bag near my sink.

I have very sensitive skin so I find it a little harsh to use every day. Would recommend twice a week.

Overall, a fun nifty product to aid cleansing & manual exfoliation but I would think the quality of your cleanser while using this matters too ;) For only $2, worth a try! Available on Amazon here.

Review: Collection 2000 Eye Definition Liquid Eyeliner (Ebony 1)

Product: Collection 2000 Eye Definition Liquid Eyeliner (Ebony 1)

What I like about it:

Really affordable, often on 2 for 5 pounds on Superdrug!

The brush is a flexible brush tip & able to get precise lines.

Formula is very black and quite long lasting.

What I dislike about it:

It takes very long to dry, as you can see from the swatch perhaps from its watery formula and unfortunately, this is a deal breaker for me. Additionally, when it does dry, it feels a little irritating on the eye (i have sensitive eyelids).

Also, personally, i prefer pen type of applicators as I find them easier to work with than flexible brush tips.

Review: Make Up Academy (MUA) Mascara Shade 5

Product: Make Up Academy (MUA) Mascara Shade 5

What I like about it:

Incredibly affordable at just 1 pound!

It does an excellent job of lengthening your lashes. It has a very lightweight and tapered mascara wand making it very easy to get every lash.

I also find the thin tapered wand really good to get all my bottom lashes.

What I dislike about it:

It does not give much volume to your lashes and you have to work pretty fast because the formula does dry quickly on your lashes.

Overall, I find that it is wonderful for lengthening your eyelashes and it works extremely well paired with a volumizing mascara like Covergirl's Lashblast. Also, really good for the bottom lashes.

Well worth it for the price!
