Helena Rubinstein

It's a good mascara that separates my lashes very well and gives them definition, but apart from that it does nothing for my lashes. It doesn't lengthen, doesn't add volume, doesn't curl. It just defines and darkens my lashes. It's easy to apply though, doesn't clump and looks natural. But then again it flakes quite badly throughout the day and is not easy to remove in the evening. Nah, I'm not impressed at all. I've had much better mascaras for only a fraction of the price, so even though this mascara isn't exactly terrible, it certainly isn't worth the money and definitely doesn't beat the average drugstore mascara (I'd say it's rather the opposite). The packaging of course is pretty, like most of HR mascaras but that definitely won't make me repurchase.

I have this in what I believe is the lightest shade sold in the country I live in, which is 13 beige shell. The sales assistant assured me that it would adjust to my NC15 skin tone. It doesn't. I use it, but have to add several drops of lightening foundation from The Body Shop. As long as I powder it, it seems to stay on most of the day. I like that it has a light texture and feels very weightless on my skin. It doesn't have a lot of coverage, but it can be built up to around low-medium without looking cakey. The company needs to expand the shade range and lower the price. It's a good foundation, but the selling point is too high. I also really don't like the packaging. The bottle is fine, but you need to shake it before use. I don't know how many times I have almost dropped the bottle because the lid slips off so easily. I have to always remember to take off the lid first and then shake. The last thing I want to do is break a 70$ bottle of foundation...

New product launched 2018 March.
A dense compact grayish balm that has a dry, non-oily feel. Applies somewhat with difficulty yet absorbs a bit too fast for a mask/exfoliator.

It is supposed to be applied after cleansing directly on the skin with upward motions and left for 10 minutes. Massaged in to the skin before removing with water.

It contains some exfoliating beads that are almost undetectable.

The product is very gentle and perceived as nourishing.
I think it can be an excellent addition to skin care for someone with drier skin or during colder weather. For oilier skin it might be too rich.

I LOVE this! One swipe with a cotton pad and my eyeliner and mascara is gone. It saves me so much time and my under-eye skin is very thankful,because i don't have to rub the makeup off my eyes. Another bonus is the scent (but i guess it would not suit sensitive skin) This could stay in my makeup collection for sure!
