The following are a few new products I tried in 2018 and have made the cut over to 2019.
Korres Greek Yoghurt Foaming Cream Cleanser: This is by far my favorite product of 2018. I wanted a face wash that could take off my makeup and was still gentle on my skin. I found all that and then some in this product. Not only did it take off my makeup better than my Biore wash that has exfoliating beads, but it was less aggravating and smells really good. You can buy it HERE.
Eskinol Pimple Fighting Cleanser: I’m weary about Eskinol products, because they’re known traditionally as skin whiteners and y’all should know by not that I am a better person when I’m tan. However, I’ve noticed that this specific product does in fact keep my skin feeling clean and deters it from breakouts. I don’t like the smell (it doesn’t stink, but it can be momentarily strong), but it does wonders for my skin and cost nothing if you get it in PI. Shout out to Ness for the assist! You can buy it HERE (or go to the Philippines and buy 5 for $11 lol).
Makeup Eraser: My cos-sign for this might be a little preemptive considering I only used the sample cloth that came with my Birch Box (thanks Codi!), but I’m assuming that the full size cloth is only better. The reviews are true, it’s like a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser for your face. I used a tiny square of it and was able to take off my waterproof eyeliner better than soap and water. It’s reusable too! You can get it HERE.
Sephora Fresh Peach Lip Gloss: I really wanted Nars’ Orgasm lipgloss, but couldn’t justify paying $28 for a product that you could barely see. Instead, I asked the Sephora rep for a dupe and I ended up with this at half the cost, with an almost identical sheen/shine. It’s for those days where you don’t want to wear lipstick, but have slightly more oomph than just a bare lip.
Kat Von D Tattoo Liner: Since I can no longer find my original favorite liquid liner, which is made by Rimmel, I crossed over to the darkside of name brand liner and found my new favorite liner of all time. The brush on this is so precise, yet easy to use that I’m able to create the sharpest cat-eyes ever. I wasn’t able to wear eyeliner for most of the year due to the Thanos of all styes, but when I risked it all for this eyeliner during a few holiday parties. #gallery-23412-1 { margin: auto; } #gallery-23412-1 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 20%; } #gallery-23412-1 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-23412-1 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */
