Max Factor

I found this metallic max factor max effect lipgloss for £1 and didn’t really know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised.


It does feel a little on the sticky side, but the colour pay off and finish of this gloss is really pretty. I think it looks best worn as a sheer layer on its own, or as a topper in the centre of the lips over a nude lipstick.

Watch me try it out here:







Just search for Ayish Zone on YouTube x

It is smooth and its consistency is pretty thick, which is a good sign that this will offer a good coverage. Since its a thick foundation, blending this with your fingers will be quite a challenge and may make you pull your skin just to spread this out. Maxfactor stated above that to apply, put some of the product on both sides of a foundation brush but I don’t recommend this since this can leave your face streaky. The best to apply this is to buff it out with a brush or just use a sponge. I tried both ways and both were effective.

I think this foundation did a good job in doing what it said it would do. The foundation lasted for 5-6 hours, at least for me. It conceals imperfections and it helps control oil at a certain extent. I would still buy this despite the price since it’s a good foundation. But I have to draw the line when a foundation causes me acne. So I warry about the ingredients of this foundation. I would recommend this product but just use this with caution. Check first if your skin will agree with it.

This is a good affordable mascara. It volumises without clumping and makes lashes look great without making you look like you put a ton of mascara on. One downside is that it does flake after a few hours.

This was my first ever foundation and it's a good one! It has a very natural finish and looks like your natural skin. The shade 101 ivory beige matches my skin perfectly. It's not super high coverage but is buildable.

This powder has a very strong smell. I used it to powder underneath my eyes to set concealer, and it irritated my (sensitive) eyes. Haven't used it again :(
