First, the toothbrush doesn't feel as good and second, it will waste whatever product you are using with it because the product will settle deep in the bristles so you have to use a lot more of it, and third it's also hard to clean. I tried using a toothbrush and I would not recommend it. I was able to see results in just a couple of days. The exfoliation must have allowed my lip moisturizer to get better absorbed. Having this lip brush did the trick and made all the difference. Even my tried-and-true expensive-as-heck lip moisturizer I use couldn't help. My lips took a hit and were dried, cracked, and even bleeding - very painful. I just had a baby and between all the milk I was pumping for the baby and caffeine drinking my body was dried out and dehydrated. Promising review: "I admit I was skeptical about this product but my desperation to regain my soft lips made me click the 'buy' button. I love it so much, I even bought it for my sister-in-law for Christmas! BTW, in the pics above, I'm wearing no other makeup to show how it looks on bare skin, and there's no filter. I love wearing it on no-makeup days when I want to add a bit of color to my cheeks just to feel ~alive~ but it looks great on top of makeup too. It blends REALLY easily and feels so lightweight, and it's also buildable, so for a more intense blush you could just add an extra swipe or two on each cheek. Jenae: I picked up a tube of BYO Blush Oil for myself because the concept sounded so cool - a blush oil? That creates your perfect shade? It works exactly as advertised: I just make a couple of tiny swipes on each cheek and a lil' on my nose, and almost immediately the pink shade starts to appear. Check out a TikTok of the BYO Blush in action! Youthforia is an Asian woman-owned small business established in 2020 that specializes in environmentally friendly, cruelty-free makeup made with at least 90% renewable ingredients. Get it from Amazon or Ulta for $24 (available in five shades). I just pat some concealer over top and it covers my dark circles beautifully. I've previously used other rose pink under eye correctors and brighteners that are pretty good, but the peachy tone and the texture of the pencil are the best I've found. I'm fair and cool-toned and got the peachy pink color. I even asked my BF if he could see the orange 'glow' under my eyes before I put on the cc cream and he couldn't see it! It really was color correcting!" - Reviewer You really still can't tell I'm wearing makeup. I was pleasantly surprised after using Rise under my eyes and around my mouth, blending with a BeautyBlender and then using my same amount of cc cream and powder foundation. I was excited to try these Huesticks, made by and vouched for by a fellow South Asian, but was worried it would look like I was ACTUALLY wearing makeup. I am 34-years-old, of Sri Lankan descent (medium to deep tan skin) and I've NEVER been good at makeup. Promising reviews: "I'll admit, I was totally skeptical of these Huesticks. It's made with hyaluronic acid, squalane, and vitamins C and E. The Huestick was the first product the company launched, making waves as the first multi-stick with clean ingredients to also balance out dark circles and spots. Live Tinted was founded by Deepica Mutyala, who first went viral for her red lipstick hack for under-eye circles in 2015. But I really think that this cleaner worked great, and I haven't had any sensitive bumps on my skin since using it." - Chelsea I got this solution, and I couldn't BELIEVE how amazing my brushes were afterward! I also have insanely sensitive skin, and most any soap I put on a brush will cause me to break out when I use it later, no matter how well I typically rinse it. Promising review: "I hate washing my brushes I've always done it by hand, and it's always caused the big fluffy powder brushes to feel rougher or become matted no matter how hard I try to reshape them. And the bristles are always left as soft as before too!" You'll see the water start running brown immediately, which is always super gross but also really satisfying, and once you see your brush return to its original color, you know you're done. I just add a bit of the shampoo to my brush and gently rub it against a silicone mat under running water, and it makes quick work of removing all the makeup that's built up on my brush for, frankly, way too long. Jenae: "I've used Ecotools brush cleaning shampoo for years, and it makes cleaning my brushes so much easier.
