I was never a fan of Younique makeup and figured LipSense was just like them. Boy, was I wrong! The lovely Debbie Rigby sent me a starter kit to test and try. I couldn’t wait to see what the hype was all about.
LipSense is the premier product of SeneGence and is unlike any conventional lipstick, stain or color. As the original long-lasting lip color, it is waterproof, does not kiss-off, smear-off, rub-off or budge-off! Create your own color palette by combining colors from over 50 shades.
LipSense is a two step system and the color seriously lasts all day long! I was beyond impressed. Debbie mentioned that the product might tingle at first and it did. However, it didn’t hurt at all. This is all part of the exfoliation process. Not only does this product last ALL DAY, it also is good for your lips.
I love the color I received (Dawn Rising). It will go with just about any look I do. I also love being able to kiss my boyfriend and have nothing transfer. The color lasted through eating and drinking. Debbie recommends applying the gloss before you eat to ensure that the color will last.
My favorite part of the LipSense system is the gloss. It feels amazing on the lips and is not sticky at all. I could seriously wear the gloss alone because it is extremely moisturizing. The lip remover is also awesome. This system is totally my favorite new lipstick and I really need more shades.
If you are skeptical about LipSense like I was, I totally understand. However, it really does work and I just love not having to worry about my lipstick fading or bleeding. Check it out sometime if you get the chance and let me know what you think!
If you are interested in purchasing LipSense, check out Debbie’s Facebook Page or send her an email ([email protected]). She is seriously so sweet and awesome to work with! Also show her Instagram some love too!
And finally, check out her awesome YouTube videos on how exactly to use LipSense. They really help!

" data-orig-size="480,480" data-image-meta="{" sizes="(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px" data-image-title="Lauren B Beauty Nail & Cuticle Balm" data-orig-file="https://i2.wp.com/www.everythingandnothin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Lauren-B-Beauty-Nail-Cuticle-Balm.jpg?fit=480%2C480" data-recalc-dims="1" eos="" data-medium-file="https://i2.wp.com/www.everythingandnothin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Lauren-B-Beauty-Nail-Cuticle-Balm.jpg?fit=300%2C300" rebel="" data-permalink="http://www.everythingandnothin.com/2017/05/01/testing-new-pr-beauty-products/lauren-b-beauty-nail-cuticle-balm/" aperture="aperture" />This rich hydrator absorbs instantly to restore parched, straggly cuticles to their prime. click-pen applicator – perfect for dotting on throughout the day.
I really enjoyed this cuticle cream. My cuticles seriously need some work and this balm is awesome. It is so convenient too because of the pen applicator. I can easily travel with it and throw it into my bag. It is not messy at all which I really enjoy.
My cuticles felt so much softer after just one use. The claim that it instantly absorbs is so true. My nails are looking better and I will most definitely continue using. I hope it completely restores my nails. That would be a miracle!

Testing PR Eye Look 2
" data-orig-size="499,353" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" data-image-title="Testing PR Eye Look 2" data-orig-file="https://i2.wp.com/www.everythingandnothin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Testing-PR-Eye-Look-2.jpg?fit=499%2C353" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail" eos="" width="150" alt="Testing PR Eye Look 2" data-medium-file="https://i2.wp.com/www.everythingandnothin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Testing-PR-Eye-Look-2.jpg?fit=300%2C212" rebel="" data-permalink="http://www.everythingandnothin.com/2017/05/01/testing-new-pr-beauty-products/testing-pr-eye-look-2/" aperture="aperture" />Smoky or subtle, this creamy, long-wearing pencil won’t feather or bleed. The larger crayon glides across skin without skipping or pulling. Moisturizing botanicals help support skin’s moisture barrier and help promote the appearance of fuller lashes. Sharpener contained in the end!
I wasn’t a huge fan of these eyeliners. They aren’t very creamy and they tend to tug at the eyes. It was hard getting the color to show up on my eyes. You definitely don’t want to apply them on top of a cream eyeshadow because they won’t show up at all. Maybe I just got a bad batch because they are not supposed to skip or pull at your eyes.
The eyeliners are decently long-wearing after you get the color to show up. I really enjoy that there is a sharpener at the end. That was a very nice touch. I just wish they were a tad bit more creamy. If they were, I would be a huge fan. I received the colors graphite and aubergine. They really are stunning colors.
VERDICT: JUST OKAY
Rituals Relaxing Body & Massage Oil in White Lotus & Yi Yi Ren:
Rituals Relaxing Body & Massage Oil in White Lotus & Yi Yi Ren

Can also be used as a nourishing oil for very dry skin.
I love this massage oil. Rituals makes amazing products and this one didn’t disappoint. It works great for dry skin and smells incredible. I can’t get over how amazing it smells. It is the perfect after shower oil too. My skin felt so soft and smelled so awesome after using.
I highly recommend this oil and I will totally continue using it.
VERDICT: WINNER
Merle Norman Shadow Stick in Mystic:
Merle Norman Shadow Stick in Mystic
" data-orig-size="480,480" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" data-image-title="Merle Norman Shadow Stick in Mystic" data-orig-file="https://i2.wp.com/www.everythingandnothin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Merle-Norman-Shadow-Stick-in-Mystic.jpg?fit=480%2C480" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail" eos="" width="150" t6="t6" />This long-wearing, cream shadow in a handy stick form is designed for versatility. Layer with powder shadows for added richness and opacity, or wear alone for a wash of color. Available in ten gorgeous matte and luminous shades.
I love the color (Mystic) of this shadow stick. It is VERY pigmented and creamy. I was impressed at how easy it was to apply to the eyes and blend. It doesn’t set right away so you are able to blend which is nice. I totally agree that this shadow is long-wearing. It didn’t smear or budge once it set. I was able to achieve a gorgeous smokey eye very quickly.
The only negative is that the product is very soft. You can’t press hard at all or it will break. I had to be careful when initially applying to my eyes. Other than that, I think it is a fantastic shadow stick and formula. I will definitely use again.
VERDICT: WINNER
Mally Beauty H3 Lipstick:
Mally Beauty H3 Lipstick

Mally Beauty Lips
" data-orig-size="336,336" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" data-image-title="Mally Beauty Lips" data-orig-file="https://i1.wp.com/www.everythingandnothin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Mally-Beauty-Lips.jpg?fit=336%2C336" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail" eos="" width="150" t6="t6" />Wear a pop of color with Mally Beauty’s H3 Lipstick. This product provides triple hydration with just the right amount of coverage. The formula is gel-based rather than wax, so it leaves lips nourished and rich in pigment all day long.
The shades I received are Crush & Hibiscus. Crush is a plum shade while Hibiscus is a berry shade. The formula is very creamy and definitely hydrating. It feels very comfortable on the lips. I actually enjoyed the gel-based formula and found it very nice to wear. Both lip colors have intense pigmentation and they last a long time on the lips.
The shape of the lipstick is different and took a little while to get used to. However, it was easy to apply once I figured out at what angle to hold it. I would recommend using a lipliner with these lipsticks because they can tend to smear.
You can wear these colors alone or layered. I layered mine and I love how it turned out. Overall, I really love how these lipsticks feel and I will definitely continue using.
VERDICT: WINNER
TULA Urban Defense Hydrating Mist:
TULA Urban Defense Hydrating Mist

This nutrient-packed spray protects against environmental toxins that prematurely age and irritate skin. Anti-inflammatory rose water, coconut water, and hyaluronic acid help to calm skin and immediately boost hydration.
I love hydrating mists, especially in the spring and summer. Hydrating mists are a great way to cool down and add some extra hydration to your skin. This mist includes rose water, coconut water, and hyaluronic acid which are all ingredients my skin loves.
The mist is very fine and the sprayer is great. I hate mists that leave huge water droplets all over your skin. This hydrating mist doesn’t do that. It really is very refreshing and feels great on the skin. I am really impressed and will definitely continue using it. The bottle is fairly large so it will last me a long time. I love it!
VERDICT: WINNER
La Roche-Posay Rosaliac AR Intense Visible Redness Reducing Serum:
La Roche-Posay Rosaliac AR Intense is an intensive daily formula to help visibly reduce redness.
I have a few areas of redness on my face, so I couldn’t wait to try this serum. It is supposed to help visibly reduce redness. The packaging is really nice and totally travel-friendly. I won’t have to worry about this product spilling all over my stuff.
The serum feels great on my skin and sinks into the skin very quickly. I used two pumps and it covered my entire face and neck. It doesn’t have much of a smell at all which I really enjoy in skincare. I love how it feels on my skin and I will totally continue using to see if I notice any redness reduction. If I do, this just might become a holy grail serum.
VERDICT: NEED TO CONTINUE USING, BUT WINNER SO FAR
La Roche-Posay Rosaliac CC Cream:

Provides broad spectrum SPF 30.
I had high hopes for this CC cream. It is supposed to reduce the appearance of redness while hydrating. I believe it does reduce the appearance of redness; however, it is definitely not the right shade for me. It also clung to my dry patches and was patchy which I didn’t enjoy. If you have oily skin, you might love this CC cream. It is definitely pigmented and does add a bit of coverage.
The color was completely wrong for my skin tone. I wish it would come in different shades. If it did, I would totally give it another go. It was way too orange and it was hard to blend. Luckily, I was able to make it work by applying a light powder on top.
I won’t be using this CC cream again because it just doesn’t work with my skin.
VERDICT: FAIL FOR MY SKIN TONE
WODA European Natural Skin Care MAGIC Bamboo & Charcoal Mask:
WODA European Natural Skin Care MAGIC Bamboo & Charcoal Mask 2
" data-orig-size="480,480" sizes="(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px" data-image-title="WODA European Natural Skin Care MAGIC Bamboo & Charcoal Mask 2" data-orig-file="https://i2.wp.com/www.everythingandnothin.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/WODA-European-Natural-Skin-Care-MAGIC-Bamboo-Charcoal-Mask-2.jpg?fit=480%2C480" class="attachment-large size-large" eos="" width="480" t6="t6" />This amazing, magic mask will give you beautiful skin in an instant. Deep cleansing and exfoliation will help reduce the appearance of sunspots and hyperpigmentation. Your complexion will look clearer, more radiant, soft, and supple. This natural and organic formula contains Activated Bamboo Charcoal, Kaolin, Vitamin C, Rosehip oil, and Evening Primrose oil. Perfect for all skin types.
Be ready to show off your glowing complexion!
Okay, I am totally obsessing over this skincare line. It is fantastic. I was a HUGE fan of their Celebrity Gold Mask (it totally made an appearance in my Current Favorites). The Magic Bamboo & Charcoal mask is just as amazing. I really don’t know which I like the most. They are both must have masks!
This mask left my skin feeling so clean and soft. I have some texture on my skin and I could notice a difference after just one use. My skin also looked radiant and it didn’t strip my skin either. I will totally be using this mask more to see how much my skin improves. Check out my Instagram post about it below!

Laboratory tested to be a 99.9% effective barrier against surface and airborne bacteria. Replaces plastic caps and holders that trap and breed bacteria. Ideal for travel, home, work and everywhere in between. Disposable and effective up to 7 days.
These toothbrush shields are really awesome and very affordable. I love that they protect against surface and airborne bacteria. You simply apply the shield to your toothbrush and put it away. After 7 days, simply dispose of the shield. I love that you can use each shield for 7 days. One pack has 10 shields, so one pack will last me 10 weeks.
They are much more hygienic than plastic toothbrush caps. I will totally be using these all the time now. They are perfect for travel too. These were an awesome find and I, most definitely, will be purchasing more once I have finished this pack.
VERDICT: TOTAL WINNER
