Bad points -- instant glow serum. Really odd and oily texture. Used anyway as directed in case it impacted how the rest of the make up sits. Felt like I needed a good wash after use.- the minimalist. I wanted to love this. I really did. I love a “no make up” look, and was well and truly fooled by the online hype. It blends awfully, either with a blender, or the merit brush. It’s made my skin look dry and clumpy, which is frankly a miracle as I have oily skin, and the oily “instant glow” serum on. Didn’t work well as a concealer in any event. Had to apply a lot to get any form of coverage, which really defies the point of a no makeup look which is supposed to be fast. It’s also much smaller than you’d expect for the price. With the amount you have to use, it won’t last long.- the brush. Just awful. Don’t waste your money. Damp beauty blender far more effective.Mid points- day glow highlighting balm. In the mirror, this gives a subtle glow. In a camera, it’s awful. Really over the top oily looking shine. Possibly ok for out and about, but can imagine it would ruin all your pictures of a special occupation.Volumising brow promade - not awful, not great. Brushed out brows, but not much hold. Made brows look negligibly fuller, but will still need additional product. Far better options at a far lower price point. Good points - clean lash mascara. I actually really liked this, as it gave a nice defined natural lash look. Didn’t make them look stiff or spindly. It is quite runny, so there’s quite a bit of transfer when wet, but easily came off with a dry cotton bud.- flush balm. I really liked this, but it is VERY subtle. As a no makeup person, that suits me fine. When it first goes on, it’s very bold, but quickly fades. If you like a rosy cheek, it’s probably not for you. I used shade cheeky, and it suited my fair complexion very nicely.- signature lip in baby. Liked the colour. Has a feel of Charlotte tilbury pillow talk about it, but at the price point, why not just buy Charlotte tilbury? It’s quite Matt, so I added a couple dabs of… -tinted lip oil, au natural which gave a bit of moisture and a hint of shine. Looks nice. But the shade does bring out the yellow in my teeth (and I’m a shade a1).Bronze balm in quince - quite liked this. The stick format made it easy to apply, and it does the job. Bit hard to blend out, and took longer than I’d usually want to bother with.OverallHave I found a one brand routine? No. The disappointing products are far too expensive for me to not be feeling ripped off. I’ve fallen victim to online influencer hype to the tune of about £250. Bought as vegan and cruelty free is a must for me, but at this price point, charlotte tilbury is a far better option.I also don’t like that they have no colour samples. Sending a picture is not the same as trying on your skin in natural light. At the amount the charge I refuse to believe they can’t shoulder some 0.5ml sample sachets to try out colour.I might buy some of the products again, but just as likely that I won’t.Not the worst experience, but far from the best.Wanted to add a picture as applied - but no function to do that here.
