Hello, everyone. Welcome back.
Thank you so, so much for joining me.
So today we are doing keep it, fix it, dump it
for what month is it? What month is it? Oh my God.
For May 2022.
And what a May it has been.
I am going to try a few different products
I've either been sent in PR or I've
purchased myself and I haven't had the chance
to use yet throughout this month.
And I'm going to decide, am I going to keep them?
Which means I'm going to keep them,
am I going to fix them?
Which means, you know what, I'm going to keep it.
But I wish it was like this or I would change it
so it was like this, just to make the
product a little bit better, in my opinion.
Or am I going to dump it?
Which means I'm going to donate it,
give it to a friend, family member,
probably keep them for a second chance video.
Who knows. Let's go into it.
I've primed my eyelids.
I don't know what I've done with this eyebrow.
I've made it really thick, like early Instagram days
brow and I don't know why, but that's fine.
Please consider subscribing and everything else, I've forgotten
what I say, but you know how it is.
Let's just get going.
Let's start with our first product today.
And this is the Thorn Oil
Priming Facial Elixir from Rituel De Fille.
They very kindly sent me this whole package.
I love this brand already. And they sent a
few things over and I just, I can't wait to try
them all, but I want to try this first.
My skin has been somewhat
sh*t for the past
few, few weeks and I've been desperately, desperately trying to
find something to kind of help it out.
My skin is usually quite oily and
dehydrated, but it has been super dehydrated.
So I have a little bit of moisturizer on.
I'm going to use the tiniest drop
of this oil, just to use in
those areas I've been finding are being super annoying.
So it's kind of around my nose here and onto the cheeks.
Just this general area.
Like, my skin has been so dehydrated that it's to a point where I'm oily and
my skin isn't getting oily, which I'm like,
no, come on, I need my oils back.
It smells really nice.
It has the lightest, very, very faintest
scent of rose, I'm assuming.
And it does say to apply five to ten drops.
And I'm not sure if you're meant to use
it on top of moisturizer, but I'm having a rough time.
Yeah but the fragrance isn't like crazy overwhelming.
So that's good.
Oh yeah, oh. My lips look really hydrated.
I was just thinking, oh my God, they look bigger than they usually....
I'm just wearing lip balm.
I haven't had anything done, I promise.
Too scared to get that done to my lips.
Okay, so I'm going to let that settle
in, do what it needs to do.
It does, it does automatically feel so
much smoother in those areas. What a relief.
Just before we go in to the rest of the products,
I do want to add in a quick product here.
And this is by a brand called Maple & Whiskey Candle Co.
I have been using their candles and
wax, melts and room... reed diffusers and sprays
for years, years and years and years.
This one is called Banshee Flight, and
it is the most incredible smell.
The only way I can describe it
is almost like a tropical rainstorm.
But on an alien planet that smells fresh
and fruity, you know? It's really, really beautiful.
I'll put the actual description on here.
I also have a discount code with them, I believe it's ROBERT10.
It's not an affiliate link, I don't get anything.
But they send me product.
Yeah, go and check them out.
One of my favorites as well is Beach Club.
If you want your house or room, whatever,
to smell like a really expensive hotel or
spa, it's just the most freshest smell.
So go ahead and check them out. I'll leave the link below,
my discount code is there for you also.
Okay, so let's start with the eyes.
I get sent PR from Colourpop.
And a lot of the time, I'll be honest with
you, I don't tend to use them because I'm kind
of bored by a lot of their releases.
But this is their Star Wars collection. You know what I tried...
Okay, extremely unpopular opinion, or maybe not.
I tried to watch Star Wars, like, from the beginning.
The first films.
I couldn't f*cking stand it.
The main characters were annoying.
They were so annoying.
I wanted the bad guys to win.
I was like, kill them, kill them all.
They're so irritating. These guys, especially him.
He was super annoying.
He was all right.
Yeah, so I actually haven't watched Star Wars, but I
understand why people can love it.
So this is the Star Wars palette, which I'm going to try.
I think that looks really cool.
And I love the way they've done like
the planet inspired kind of things here.
But they also have, like, these powder
kind of highlights, which are really, really cute.
What is this, actually?
Oh, no, it's jelly.
Oh, it's that... it's one of their jelly eyeshadows.
So they have that in like this light, and
then they have it in this, like, it's almost
like a bluey purple shift, which is really nice.
And then for the first time in a long
time, I've been excited by their lip products.
Look at these two glosses.
How incredible are these?
And then this nude lipstick.
I don't know why I just went through all of that
when I'm just going to do the eyes.
But let's just do it.
So let's start with the...
What should we do?
I haven't done red in a while, but
I hate red so much on me.
So let's start with the shade...
Let's start with Rebellion, which is
this very deep, richer blue.
You know what, I can...
I did a review for my members only.
I did a review of the Wet & Wild
Care Bear collection, and I don't really know much...
Of course I know what Care Bears are, and
of course I know what Star Wars is.
But like, I appreciate a heavily themed collection,
even if I'm not the hugest fan
of what the collection is based on.
I still like a heavy theme.
So I can appreciate that, you know, fans of this are
absolutely going to love, love, love this collection.
That's very, very rich in pigment.
That is very nice.
Ooooh.
Really nice.
Yeah, Colourpop, you know, sometimes they confuse me.
See, Colourpop's formula,
like, I like it, but it's not a formula that I like rush for.
Like, oh, sh*t, I need to use that again, you know?
But this seems to be really, really nice.
Like this is full, full, colorful, full pigmentation.
Is it still blending a bit dry?
Yes, I do find that with Colourpop sometimes.
Let's take the red shade, Galactic Empire, and
use that on the inside corner here.
And let's darken that a bit by using Republic.
Just in here.
And I want to take...
Let me see what Space... Space, what?
Farts?!
Oh, pirate. I don't know how I read that so wrong.
Let's put that here.
Let's kind of, like, blend that
red, that burgundy into that blue.
Get a bit of the purple shift, because there's no purple in this palette.
This shimmer is very soft to the touch.
Add some black to the outside corner,
really wing it out.
Am I just completely making this up as I
go along and not really knowing what's happening?
Yes.
So we'll use Star Destroyer.
And then let's try this,
Astronaut, Astronec...
Astromech.
Don't do this to my dyslexia.
Oh, it's like this very gungy...
I wouldn't even say jelly-like.
I think it's more of a,
it feels more putty, like, you know?
Considering it's texture, it doesn't have the fullest, like, I don't know.
I thought it maybe would have a little bit more pigmentation to it.
Oh, actually, it kind of does. Okay, cool. Yeah. Wow.
Okay.
It helps if you actually put it on.
Okay, let's come back to the eyes and
finish all that up in just a moment.
I'm just going to blow away any kind of
excess oil now that's maybe still sitting on the
skin, which, to be honest with you, there isn't
really much of that going on, so that's cute.
And I don't really have a new foundation.
You would have already seen me review the Danessa Myricks...
What's it called? Yummy Skin.
The Blurring Balm Powder. Still in kind
of two minds about it, really.
It is nice. I don't know what to say.
And I'm just going to put some on again just to try.
I feel like it might go better on
top of a primer like this.
So if you haven't seen my review already, go ahead and watch it.
I do have a wear test in there also.
Okay, so now I've done my foundation, concealer.
I can kind of touch on this oil a little bit more.
It's sitting really beautifully under my foundation.
Looks really, really nice.
And it's helped the application a lot.
So I'm going to keep, keep, keep that one.
The eyeshadow palette is fine. I'm going to keep it.
There are some shades in there that are
a little bit more exciting, like this, this, this, this that I want to try.
So keep that.
Have I done anything else?
Foundation you've already seen a review.
Let me just finish up under eyes and then we'll carry on.
Okay, so bronzer, blusher. Let me just go down here.
So Sigma have just recently launched their individual...
So these are all their blushes that they just released.
And this is their bronzer? Bronzer. Okay, cool.
So we have individual blushers and bronzers.
I'm going to try the bronzer.
I'm going to try their Matte Bronze
Dark, which looks like.... hmm, maybe not.
Medium, I think I need medium. Matte Bronze Medium.
And I do, I have a discount with Sigma as well if
you wanted to use that, and an affiliate link.
So that will be down below.
So I do get a tiny bit of anything you purchase.
You of course, don't have to use that
link if you don't want to.
But their eye primer is the one I always use.
It's the one you always hear me talk about, It's my absolute favorite.
These are nice, these are going on really, really smoothly.
It's very...
There's no orange, which I really like, but
this is kind of just nice and sculpting. Very nice.
And you know what? This foundation is so pale for me.
I need a good bronze.
Yeah, yeah.
Look how perfect that bronze shade is. Nice.
Do a little bit on my nose, just to level things out.
Yeah, I really like that, actually. Look at that.
Look how perfect that bronze is.
It's, like, not orange.
It's not gray.
It's just the most perfect shade of bronze.
Okay, I just realised I haven't got pencil on my eye.
Let me sort that out.
So next up, we have the Sheer Blush Cheek Tint.
This is from Keys Soulcare.
I saw these, and I was like,
this is just up my f*cking alley.
This is exactly what I want to try.
A bit of color, but nothing that's going to be crazy.
These are the kind of things that, from what I've
seen online anyway, that are going to look really nice
on skin with not too much makeup on.
So we have, what's this shade called?
Magnetic, which is this orangey shade.
I haven't opened it yet, so.
Oh, they smell really good.
Which is like this. Think it will go nice with the blue and red.
And then we also have Awakened, which is
this kind of like dusky pink. Like that,
which I think I would use another time.
Let's go for Magnetic and try this out.
I'm going to use my fingers?
No, I'm not going to use my fingers
because I have blue shimmer all over them.
I'm going to use a really fluffy, tiny brush.
So it's a little bit, so it has a
little bit of pressure, but not too much.
And I'm just going to build that.
It's exactly what I thought it would be.
That really nice, very sheer tint of color.
It's a little bit buildable.
You can definitely build it up.
I really like that, actually.
That's really nice.
You can see, like the smallest, smallest difference.
Let me take it up a little bit higher and
you can see the color a bit more
because it's kind of sitting on top of the bronzer a little bit, which is okay.
Smells really good.
Kind of just smells like vanilla.
Actually, how's this sitting on top of that foundation?
Much better than I thought it would.
I feel like that primer has really helped me out today.
So you can definitely use this as a tint.
I'm just going to build it up quite a bit
because I have quite a lot of eye makeup on
and I kind of just want something a bit more fuller.
Nice, I really want to go in with my fingers. Okay, lets
just hope I got no blue randomly on my finger.
That's all I was worried about was getting blue on top of this.
It has a really nice shine to it.
You know what? It's weirdly not greasy, though.
It looks really shiny, but it looks kind of
like maybe it could be, but it's really not.
I'm going to wash my hands and
then tap it in a bit more.
Yeah, I feel like this is much, much better with fingers.
I know this color won't be to
everyone's taste, but I love, I love, love, love orange blush.
Okay, cool. Let's get something on the lips.
Now I have a few choices.
I actually have the lipstick as well.
I actually have a tinted lip balm from Key Soulcare.
And this is Manifestation.
Let's try it and see how it looks. Just while we have like the...
thingy on.
Oh.
Chipped a bit off there with my dry, crusty lips.
Yeah, that really is just a tint.
That's really nice as well if you just want a tint.
These are going to be great coming up to Summer and coming
up to people's holidays, vacations.
However, I do want something a little bit more.
So let me just mute my lips out.
I just do this because my lips are
so red and I'd rather they weren't.
And let's go in with the Dark Lord.
I wonder why they chose this color to call
it Dark Lord because there was a darker shade.
That's really... what finishes that? Cream Lux.
That's really nice.
Strange, it's like a semi matte.
It says creme, but it feels like
creme, but it sits like...
creme lux. I don't know.
Okay, let's use Elite Lux gloss, which is this purple.
I just want to see how it sits on top of this nude.
You know what? For this look, I'm going to
mute my lips out completely.
And that just involves wiping my lips really violently with tissue.
You know what? I'm going to mix.
I'm going to use this Liquid Balm from Givenchy.
I know it's nice and nude on my lip.
What did I just try? I keep forgetting,
Keep, keep.
And I want more.
And then I really, really want to use this Elite shade or
do I use... I mean, this is quite nice as well.
This is called what? Imperial.
It would make sense, wouldn't it?
Okay, come on.
It's okay not to use purple for just a second.
Okay, cool.
I think that's cute.
Is this tingling? I don't know.
No, it's the Givenchy one. Okay.
Here's what I'm going to do.
I want to mattify the center of my face here.
So keep, I really like Colorplop... plop? Colourpop glosses.
I think they're really nice.
This is maybe sitting a bit too heavy on my lip.
Let's just mattify this inside here.
I want to keep the shine.
I'm going to let the shine of that
blush kind of be my highlight today.
Okay, we've got one more product to try.
Ardell sent over these ECO Lashes. "One pair of lashes..."
These are, what's the name of these?
What's this style?
Is it 455?
I hate it when brands do that, it feels very wholesale.
Let's give them a go.
These are the kind of biggest style they have.
And I don't like my lashes looking too
natural when I'm doing, like, eye makeup because
it just looks like I'm not doing anything.
Okay, so I'm getting them on.
They apply really nice.
The ribs thin, but not completely thin.
Cute, okay.
They're like, definitely something.
Keep, I guess. I do reach for longer ones though.
But these are going to be great for people who maybe
want just to wear something subtle on a night out, weddings
these would be really cute for as well. Bridesmaids.
Brides.
Well, that's keep it, fix it, dump it for May 2022.
