How’s it going, you guys!? I’ve been having such a blast doing these articles and getting to chat with some of you. I am so thankful to put a face to the beautiful people I’m writing to.
Oh, how is my day going, you ask? Well, let me tell ya. I inadvertently fell asleep on the couch in the middle of the day while my kid Kai was hanging out in the living room with me (I promise, that is a very rare occurrence).

He knows when to take advantage of people, like when his mommy is too worn out to function, so he found a blue marker somewhere, somehow, and scribbled all over our beige microfiber couch…
Not cool, Kai, not cool.
Get ready, Karen, because Connor will destroy everything you hold dear!

So, due to today’s events, I am locking myself in the bedroom while my dear husband takes his turn at scrubbing the couch, and I’m going to chat with you people about L’Oréal. That must cheer me up!
I have a theory about L’Oréal…
دعني أوضح. Did you know that they actually own tons of different brands, including a bunch of high end brands like YSL, Lancome, Georgio Armani, and urban Decay?
رائع. صحيح؟ but back to my theory.
I think because they’re involved with so lots of high quality brands, their makeup is actually comparable quality, just at a much more affordable price.
That would make sense, right? Again, just a theory.
Another great thing about the brand is that they do absolutely no testing on animals, and they haven’t considering that 1989. That is such a cool accomplishment in my eyes.
OK, let’s get to the makeup.
Using (mostly) L’Oréal makeup, I created this look here…
First I tried L’Oréal true match Lumi cushion Foundation, and if you haven’t heard of these new cushion foundations, they’re generally sponges soaked in foundation and put into a compact.
الحق غريب؟ I’m a little confused by the whole concept myself, but tons of brands have been doing them, so there need to be some perk!
I actually thought it was incredibly convenient. It comes with a little puff that you dip into the product, then pat on your face. I like it because you don’t need a separate brush. everything you need is ideal there, although you absolutely could use another brush or sponge if you like the application better. just make sure anything you dip in there is incredibly clean. It seems like this product could be a playground for nasty bacteria.
The coverage is pretty light but does build up to be about a medium coverage. I don’t think you’d be able to get up to full coverage with this one. As you can see below, it won’t cover any massive creatures chillin’ on your chin.
As the name suggests, it also gives you the most gaw-geous luminous glow, and I’m all about dat glow. this one is a real winner for me!
Next up is this cute little brow kit, the L’Oréal Brow Stylist Prep & shape pro Kit. this one here is in shade “medium to dark”.
How great would this be just to chuck in your bag and have for touch-ups?! It comes with a wax, a powder, a little angled brush with a spoolie on the end, and a pair of little tweezers.
I think the product itself is excellent, but it’s just not for me, just like every other powder brow product I’ve tried. I think that powders don’t work for my brows because, let’s be honest, they’re kind of massive.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my full brows, but I feel like powders just make them look too huge and fuzzy. That probably makes no sense, but pencils just work so much better for me.
If you love using powders and waxes on your brows, get this. I really think you’ll love it.
Ugh, great. I’ve discovered a lot more great eye shadows, which indicates that I have to get every shade, and I really don’t need any more.
“Why not just show some restraint and not get more, Jen?” يمكنك السؤال. Well, because I am an addict, so I don’t have a choice. At least that’s the story I’m going with.
The shadows I’m talking about are the L’Oréal Colour Riche Monos Eye Shadows. I’m regretting ever using the descriptive word “buttery” for another eye shadow because I really need to use that word for these.
They’re just so buttery! — like literal butter. It’s actually a little bit trippy. They’re a powder, but they nearly feel like a cream. The pigmentation is amaze-balls (also wishing I saved that word for these), too, as is the blendability.
I used the shade called “Green Promenade” all over the lid, “Little beige Dress” as a transition shade, and “Cafe Au Late” to deepen the outer corner.
Then I wanted to try out the L’Oréal Voluminous Superstar Red Carpet Black Flash Reflecting Mascara. this one has two steps — a priming step, then the actual black mascara. When I applied the primer I had incredibly high hopes for how my lashes were going to turn out, and after putting on the white primer, my lashes looked incredibly long and separated، لذلك اعتقدت، “الكمال! الآن سأطرح للتو على الخطوة الثانية، وهذا سوف يضيف بعض الصوت. ثم سوف تبدو رموش مثالية! وو! ”
للأسف، تحطمت أحلامي. عندما وضعت في الخطوة الثانية، كانت مثل مدينة clump كلها في رموشتي. استغرق الأمر الكثير من العمل حتى أن ننظر إليهم لبدون لائق، لذلك سأضطر إلى إعطاء هذا أحد الإبهام.
الآن دعونا المحيط! خطوتي المفضلة. لا شيء يبدو أفضل من الذهاب من وجه دائرة للنظر وكأنه لديك عظام خد حقيقية. سوف تعطيك لوحة L’Oréal Inflishable Pro Contour Contour Hise Bromes نرى جميعا جميعا في أحلامنا. لقد استخدمت “الضوء” واحدا، وكان لون المحيط مثاليا فقط. ليس برتقاليا، لذلك يحاكي كيف سيبدو الظل. لقد استخدمت هذا حرفيا كل يوم بالنظر إلى أنني جربته، وأنا لم أفكر في بعض خيارات أكثر تكلفة بكثير.
تسليط الضوء، أنا لا أستخدم الكثير. إنه أمر رائع على الرغم من – مجرد مسحوق نصف لامع يبدو جيدا على رأس عظام الخد. ما زلت أستخدم تسليط الضوء المتشددين آخر على القمة لأنني متشددين للغاية. فرشاة صغيرة جاءت مع مضيق في القمامة لأنها كانت غريبة فقط، لذلك كنت أستخدم أي فرشاة تحبها بالفعل للحصول على الكنتوري.
أخيرا، ولكن الكثير من الإطلاق ليس أقله، حاولت لمعان لام أوال المعصوم. هذه على عكس أي منتج لشفة أخرى حاولت. يتذكرني الاتساق – الآن أعرف أن هذا غريب بشكل لا يصدق، لكنني عاري مع البطاطا المهروسة.
انتظر ماذا؟

ليس بطريقة سيئة، شجيرة، ولكن طريقة رائعة (؟) بصراحة … بصراحة، فقط إهمال الكلمات الوصفية الغريبة، وجربها بنفسك.
انهم ترطيب ومريح، ولكن ماتي. إنهم لا يلائمون في بقع أو خطوط جافة على شفتيك، مما يجعلهم يبدوونا ناعما بشكل لا يصدق. إصبعا الإبهام عاليا.
فخ كان ذلك طويلا. إذا كنت قد جعلت الناس هذا بعيدا معي، فأعلمني ما هي علامتك التجارية المفضلة لديك ولماذا!
