Hi Guys,
I haven't been on my blog for about half a year now, so it's been a LONG TIME! I've decided to start posting about new products, and products which I have recently been testing. So what's the best way to do this, than to test out New Viral Tiktok Drugstore Makeup?!
The makeup featured, is makeup that has been going all around Tiktok, and apparently they're amazing, so I decided I was going to test them out.
I tested out four products:
NYX Marshmellow Smoothing Primer - £7 for 8ml / £15 for 30ml.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara https://amzn.to/3jRY3nO - £9.99
Barry M XXL Lip Plumping Gloss in Clear https://amzn.to/3qodW8b - £4.99 (currently £2.49 on my amazon link)
NYX Shine Loud High Shine Lip Colour in Born to Hustle - £11
First up was the Marshmellow Primer. This mentions that it is a 10-in-1 primer which is supposed to smooth the skin, even skin tone, makeup to last 16 hours, and many more. I tried this out with my trusty Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation - I've been using this for years so wanted to use a tried and tested foundation use on top of the primer to see how it goes.
I tested both of the ways I usually do when I test out a new mascara - the rolling motion, and the zig-zag motion. Rolling tends to get more product on the lashes, and zig-zag lengthens and separates the lashes.
The mascara promises a lots of lengthening, suitable for sensitive eyes, and washable. But mentioned nothing about building up, flaking or smudging- so this made me a little worried about how it was going to apply and last on my lashes.
I applied 2 coats of mascara - I usually do 3 in all first impressions, but it was so good that I only needed 2!
Then, there were 2 lip products to test, and I wanted to test both of them in the same video to see how they were - I didn't want to wait until I filmed another video to use one of them as they were both viral on tiktok!
Barry M XXL Lip Plumping Gloss. I had seen one video in particular where someone had small lips, put this on, and came back after a few minutes with HUGE lips! They swore that it was the lip gloss and not lip filler - I had an incline it wouldn't work so decided to test it out on camera.
It promises to give you and XXL pout and a slight tingle.
I put this on and straight away, my lips were on fire! It felt as though my lips had pins and needles and I couldn't really feel them at all! I filmed my lips before applying, after 5 minutes and after 15 minutes to see if there was any difference.
After trying the plumping gloss, I took this off and decided to try the new NYX Shine Loud Lip Colour. This again, was so hard for me to get my hands one. All of the shades available online were ones which I knew I wasn't going to wear - dark colours and browns - and I wanted something I could wear a lot if I liked it, instead of wasting my money on something to just try once. I finally managed to find it in a pinky-nude shade on BeautyBay!
This lip duo promises to hydrate your lips with multiple oils, and last through eating, drinking and kissing! I decided that I'd put it to the test and drink a glass of water, and two cookies. I wasn't careful at all with them, and tried to be as messy as possible to give it a fair shot and to see if it actually lasted and I was shocked with the results!
Overall, two of the products I really enjoyed, and the other 2 didn't work out for me! Check out my video above, to see how each of these products lasted and if they're worth the money!
