Hello, everyone. Welcome back.
Thank you so, so much for joining me.
So today we have Keep it, Fix it, Dump it for April.
Oh, my God, it's going so fast.
I say that every time.
April 2022. If you're watching us from the future, hi.
Are people flying yet?
So keep it, Fix it, Dump it is
where I take some products I have purchased
myself, been gifted, been sent in PR, whatever.
That I haven't tried it yet.
And I try them right now.
And I decide, am I going to keep them?
Which means I'm going to keep them.
Am I going to fix them?
Which means I'm going to fix... no, it doesn't.
It means I'm going to keep them.
But I do wish they were like this.
Or this is how I would make this product
work better for me or work better in general.
Would I dump it?
Which means I'm donating, I'm giving away. Or I'm keeping
for a second chances video, something like that.
So let's just get straight into it.
I do just want to give a little shout out,
first of all, to this lip balm from Laneige.
So it comes in a little tub like this.
What's happened to... oh, why are my lights so bright?
When my lights are too bright
it just makes my skin look, like, better than it is.
And you can't really see details on products.
Okay, so this is the Laneige Treatment Balm.
It has your little, like, spatula in the
top here, which I don't really use because I'm just using it for myself.
It has this really, really nice,
almost, like, luminosity to it.
It's slightly pink in tone, but I
have it on my lips right now.
It is slightly, like... it's not, tingling isn't the right word
because it's like a comfortable, plump kind of feeling.
But as someone who doesn't like things
on their lips, especially pink, especially glitter.
For something that's pink and, you know, shiny, it
just sits really nicely on the lips.
Okay, let's stick with Laneige
They also sent me the Glowy
Makeup Serum, which is a serum.
And this does have... when I look at it
inside, it almost has, like, this pinky...
I have no idea.
Anyway, let's try it.
I always say I love serums for prepping the skin.
This is more of, like, a gel.
Like, a lightweight gel.
Doesn't really have a smell to it either.
Something not right
about my lighting.
Are they, are the lights too low? I don't know.
This is feeling really nice.
It's actually not as quickly absorbed as
I thought it would be for a serum.
"Hydrating and longlasting makeup wear.
Okay, we'll see.
There's a subtle glow to my skin, which is nice.
I mean, yeah, we'll see how makeup sits on top of it.
Okay. Okay, let's start off with eyes.
I'm going to be using the
e.l.f Cookies 'N Dreams palette.
I really, really like e.l.f eyeshadows.
I really like their mini palettes that are really,
really good value for their price point, especially.
So I'm looking forward to trying this one.
So this did come in...
the PR package was a jar of, like, Oreos.
So if you see some crumbs in
there it's literally like Oreo crumbs.
So we have some really nice
neutrals and really nice blues.
I wonder where the blue came in
for the cookies kind of thing?
Is that like the dream part? I don't know.
And I'm also going to be
using their No Budge Eyeshadow Stick.
So what I'm going to do, I think I'm going to take... are these named?
Noiyyy.
I think I'm going to take this...
Oh, what do I want to do?
Let's start with this lighter blue here, because it'll be
interesting to see how this kind of works.
Something's happening to my...
What is going on? Sorry.
This lighter blue. Lighter blues, that almost
like verge on that pastel or pastel.
It's interesting to see how they work.
I do have an eye primer on already.
Of course, my favorite, which is my
Sigma eye primer in the shade Ignite.
I'm going to take this quite high up
because I want to cut crease today, it's been a while.
No, it hasn't, it's been a week.
Get right to that inside corner.
Yeah, it's definitely coming out
the color it is here in the palette.
What is happening today?
It'll be interesting to see how... I always
find with lighter shades like this
that some eyeshadows don't really sit very
well on top of the lighter shade.
E.l.f is good, e.l.f eyeshadows are good, so.
Does it smell? No, it doesn't.
Oh, I just really inhaled that for no reason.
Okay, cute. Okay.
What I want to do, I want to take the... what's it called?
No Budge Eyeshadow stick, and I'm actually going
to take a little bit off and just
break it onto my hand or a palette.
I should probably get a palette if I'm going to do some smooshing.
I shouldn't cut crease with this, see if it works.
Yeah, it's going on like a paint, that's great.
This is a really nice texture.
I would say whether you're doing it the way I'm
doing it now, or whether you use it in stick form,
it doesn't give you too much play time.
So I would act on it and blend it
very, very quickly or as quick as you can really.
Be like, as it says, like a no
budge eyeshadow, it's going to set quite quick.
And once it's set, it's set.
Just get that shape in there quick.
I was going to, like, darken the outsides, but
I'm kind of liking how bright it is.
Or do I?
So I'm going to... I don't know, I'm going to take this shade.
It looks duo-toney, but we'll see
how it goes on the lid.
Yeah, that's really nice.
That's a very early 2000s like, Paris Hilton shade, you know?
And then I'm going to take this lighter matte, and I'm
just going to go over this whiter shade, maybe not all
the way in, but kind of just to... I don't know, I guess, in
a way, smooth it out, because on my eyelids, like a
drier product, can look a little bit crepey.
So I just want to smooth out that crepeiness.
Let's take a tiny bit off the...
Oh, I don't know whether to go into this
deeper blue or this blacky blue.
Let's do the...
just this deeper shimmery blue.
Okay, so I did have quite a bit of fallout under my eyes.
However, I believe that's because usually I wouldn't go into
a shimmer shade with a fluffy brush like that.
So that darker blue that I used
I was usually go in with a flat brush because it
needs to be pressed and packed a little bit more.
So me going backwards and forwards with it was
probably, most likely, the cause of that fallout.
I'm just going to do some concealer under the eyes.
I don't have any new ones.
So let's just go in with the KVD.
Oh, I used the wrong shade. Oooh, what is today?
What is today?
Ghostly. You know what? I've been out in the sun as well.
So my skin has very slightly tanned, but my skin,
when it's slightly tanned like goes a whole different shade. So this is...
You know what? Whatever.
So what I'm going to do now, I want
to go back in with some of the stick.
I want to see if I can create this like...
And then we need to blend that white in like immediately
Kind of, kind of what I was going for.
Okay, so that's the kind of thing we're going for.
We'll do some lashes and finish up
the eyes in a little while.
Let's go onto the skin.
Now, hmmm... that's not going to work.
We'll make it work. Where's my thing?
Okay, so I was also sent, sticking to
e.l.f by the looks of it, the e.l.f Camo Powder Foundation.
Now, I've never used this powder foundation.
I do like powder foundation, however. So it
does come with a little sponge underneath.
One thing I think is important with powder foundations or
anything that has a sponge underneath is for it
to have some breathing holes in the base here because we don't want that,
we don't want that sponge to retain moisture and sit
in a little airtight compact place being all... eww.
And you'll see a lot of powder foundations or a lot
of compact powders do have that underneath.
So the sponge can always get some air.
But I'm not going to use the sponge to apply.
Sponges are great for touch-ups when you're out.
I'm going to use a small, dense
brush and this is the shade Light 21N
21... no, it's not. Sorry.
210 N. And with a powder compact, I'm going to
swivel around, tap, tap, tap. A lot of fallout there.
And I'm going to start actually up here by
the cheeks and just start to circle outwards.
I'm holding my brush upwards as
well and swiveling around like this.
What you don't want to do is jam
your brush into the compact like this.
I'm circling outwards here.
And then I'm just going to go
around like the edges almost and backwards
and forward, make sure I'm getting everywhere.
Just going up the sides of the nose, we'll
concentrate on the nose properly in just a minute.
So for the nose, I'm just going
to brush up and down the sides.
Very short little motions.
Circles upwards, downwards.
Forehead I'm starting again on
the outside corner here
and buffing in circles.
This is, this is...
There's a lot of like pow... powder?
Kicking up a lot of powder.
Now, I actually love powder foundations.
I really like to use them and a lot
of them don't have this powder kick up.
Is that what it's called? You know what I mean.
However, that does kind of tell me that this foundation
isn't too densely packed, so,
it was going to go on nice and smooth.
But I mean, I would rather save all that products.
Okay, so this is what the powder foundation looks like,
just powder.
I like powder foundation, but I don't like
it to look so matte like this.
Like, this is crazy matte.
So I'm going to take the Super Fix Spray.
This is from Misguided and give this a go.
And I'm just going to spray it over the whole face.
I personally...
You can absolutely keep your face and matte like this.
If you're oilier, you know, you can give it like
five minutes and it might look fine.
I personally can't sit here like this.
So I'm going to completely drench my face.
That's just how I like to wear
powder foundation and then dry it.
So forehead first.
It's primer-infused and long-lasting.
"To receive an airbrush non-cakey look..."
I wouldn't say non-cakey,
"... that stays put from first application.
Buildable, medium to full coverage, blurred, even
complexion that keeps shine at bay.
Blurred..." yes. "Natural finish."
Now, I think if you didn't use too much,
it would give you a non-cakey look.
However, if you do want a full coverage, you may
have to do a little bit of this extra work.
Powder foundations, once they're like hydrated and
moistened, they sit really nicely.
Right, I really stupidly have chosen three like cream products to
use on my cheeks on top of powder foundation, so.
Let's hold off for a second and
just let that setting spray do its thing.
We're going to try a new mascara.
This is the Badgal Bang! Waterproof from Benefit.
Comes in this cute little packaging.
I do love a basic brush.
Let's give it a go.
You know what? This is...
I actually appreciate that this brush doesn't have
that many like...
I want to say hairs, but I know they're not hairs.
And of course I get some mascara on the white
part. Wait for that to dry and then deal with it.
But what's nice about this is it doesn't pick
up... look, you can see it doesn't pick up
too much product and it isn't going like clumpy.
There's not like gloops of mascara.
Oh, sorry, eyeshadow palette. I keep forgetting.
Keep. Keep. waiting on the foundation.
The p...
the priming serum I'm going to keep as well because
I think that powder went really nicely on top.
Very nice.
If you want a mascara that's
just going to lift your lashes very slightly and
give them like a little bit of a separation.
What's happening here? Scooping down.
Let's sort out that little patch.
I'm just going to wait for that mascara to dry,
and when it's like dryish, I'm going to take
a mascara wand and just flake it off.
We can go back on top with a bit of that white.
Okay, my lashes lifted again, you know. They just, they just go. boop.
The powder foundation's looking nice. It's still kind of...
Now with the spray
I actually quite like the texture of it.
It still feels dry on my face.
It still feels matte on my face.
We're going to keep this because I think this
might be a nice little touch-up piece.
So keep that one.
Okay, for blush and highlight, we have these Winky
Lux Cheeky Rose Blush, and the Cheeky Rose highlight.
And there are these really cute little flowers.
Let me take out the blush first.
So it is a cream of formula, but we should be
absolutely fine now that I've kind of hydrated the powder.
Look how cute.
I always thought like this bit underneath was
like this... for some reason like a clear gel.
But it's just the packaging dipping in.
Okay, so what I'm going to do because I
have used powder, it's going to go on fine,
but I don't want to disturb it too much.
So I'm actually going to use a brush
that's going to be a little bit lighter in
application, and not disturbed too much and just build
up a tiny bit at a time.
So this is the shade Teatime.
I think it's called Teatime.
No, this is a finger thing, isn't it?
I really don't want to ruin the blush, though.
It's kind of... oh, this is definitely a lot pinker
than I thought it would be.
It's got this, like powdery cream texture most to it.
Let's just give that a little...
Cute, that's really, really cute.
Really nice, buildable in like a nice
way where it's very manageable buildable.
I really like that.
That's really, really nice.
Am I ruining that flower? Absolutely.
I do have to say just quickly
touching back on that powder foundation.
I am looking around and there's
a bit like, there's powder everywhere.
If you use a sponge, you wouldn't kind of get that.
Maybe a little bit, but the sponge
just isn't the best initial application.
I really like that blush.
I really, really like that.
Let's try the highlighter.
Similar idea.
Really, really cute.
Ah, I almost don't want to touch it.
Doesn't smell like anything.
It's like a cute, like Pokemon ball, right? Okay.
Oh, sh*t. Wrong finger, oh, my God.
This is really nice.
It's very natural once it's blended in.
It has this really nice skin-like glow to it.
See? It just catches the light.
Nice.
Yeah, it's very, very natural.
It's very subtle.
But I do feel like you can build it up.
I'm just being very wary because I know I have a
powder underneath and I don't want to use too much.
I keep using the wrong f*cking finger.
I don't want to use too much product because it,
it can get quite textury with, you know, powder on the whole face.
Something smells really good. What is, what is that smell?
Oh, it's the setting spray.
Okay, we're going to keep the fixing mist
because that looks really, really nice on the skin.
It still feels like it's on, but it looks hydrated.
And somebody who's oily but wants
hydration, that's a good one.
The blush and the highlighter from Winky Lux, keep.
These are stunning.
These are so subtle and so nice
but I think buildable at the same time.
They're going to be really, really nice.
Okay, let's try...
I'm going to do a little bit of bronzer now, which
I don't know what kind of order I'm doing this in,
but I do have the Bperfect new Cronzer, cream bronzer.
And these are the shades Tan and Toasted.
Bperfect are definitely working on their like base range it seems,
like their foundation, you know, concealer and bronzer, all that
kind of stuff, which is great to Bperfect
always have some really nice products.
So Tan almost is...
This is Tan.
It's a little bit more lighter, whereas
Toasted here is a tiny bit deeper.
Let's go for Tan.
And I'm literally going to use the smallest,
smallest amount just on the edge here.
Now, these are definitely bronzer shades.
They're not like... I wouldn't say they could be used as contours because
they do really have that like tan, like warmth to them.
Like that sun, sunkissed warmth, you know?
If you use it too much as a contour,
you might run the risk of being orange.
Although the shades are perfect for bronzer, they're definitely
just a nice cream bronzer, which is good.
I like that people keep contour and bronzing
shades separately because they shouldn't be the same.
I'm going to wrap my bronzer under my blush as well.
I like that. I like that a lot.
I look bronzed.
Really nice texture.
Bperfect have got, whatever they're doing right now,
they've got their products down.
Like, they just know what they're doing.
Their foundation was stunning.
Their concealer was stunning.
Their blushes, they bought out and
those highlighters were beautiful.
Their eyeshadows are always amazing.
They're really, really nice products at the moment.
So 100% keep these, these are really, really nice.
And hopefully in a few moments when I go
on holiday and get a nice tan, I can
come back and use the other shade.
Okay, so quite a while back, Base Blue
sent me these incredible, incredible lip products
along with some other stuff.
This is the Long-Lasting Liquid
lipstick, and I believe the shade...
It says number three Serenity I want to say.
Let's give this a little go.
Mmhmm.
We'll just keep this in the
middle, and then I'll do my like nude lip situation.
This is so soft and so smooth.
This is a strange color.
It's like peach and nude.
That's a weird one, okay.
Okay, let's put a gloss on top of that.
But these are really comfortable, so this is a keep.
Let me get on some lashes, because I need to break up this look a little
bit with something darker, and I'll be right back.
Okay, well that is Keep it, Fix it, Dump it for April 2022.
Did I leave something out? There's a lot of keeps,
there were no fixes.
Were there any dumps?
No, that was a good batch of products.
And I have hairs on my face.
So let me know in the comments below are there
any products that you bought this month that you're like,
okay, I wish I could change it or I wish it
wasn't like this or it's the best product you've ever tried.
Let me know in the comments below.
Thank you so much again for joining and me.
Please give this video a thumbs up and do consider
subscribing and I will see you very, very soon. Bye.
