The Body Shop

I got this as part of a set-- it came with a small jar of the Oils of Life Intensely Revitalizing Cream. I've used it a few times. It doesn't seem to do much, to be totally honest. My skincare regimen already involves 7-8 different products, so maybe that's why I haven't noticed a difference with this oil.

You're only supposed to use two drops of it at a time. It absorbs quickly and smells nice. As someone with oily/ combination skin, I'm wary of intentionally rubbing more oil onto my face, but it doesn't seem to break me out or make anything worse.

If I get this again, it will only be because the set with the cream is cheaper than buying a jar of the cream by itself.

I don't hate this foundation, nor I love it.

The finish is definitely matte. I feel like this foundation could emphasize my dry patches I didn't know I have if I'm not careful. Definitely not meant for dry skin, but if the label says "matte clay" I'm pretty sure they're targeting oily skin market. It is also labeled as a skin clarifying, therefore I assume it's safe for acne-prone skin? Although I don't feel a direct result (it reducing my acne, etc), it's not breaking me out either so there's that.

Coverage wise is ok, somewhere between medium-high. I really like the tube packaging because it is sleek and travel friendly.

The shade range kinda sucks, I got the shade 014 Railay Beach and it is too pale (almost grey-ish?) for me (I am NC15-20 on MAC). But the next shade is definitely too dark and too pink. So they didn't leave me with choices here.

Pro: travel friendly, matte finish if you're into that, ok coverage
Cons: slightly emphasize your dry patches, bad shade range

I switched to minimal packaging and thus wanted to try it and I totally love it. Leaves you squeaky clean and oil control is good, I break out lesser, only thing is I doubt it's for sensitive skin due to eucalyptus and tea tree oil so please check the ingredient list before you buy.

I really loved how this made my skin look natural, didn't feel heavy at all. Loved the formula, lasted a long time. I did not realize that the application was a sponge type, I had forgotten how I dislike those kinds of foundations. However, if this formula was in a bottle, I'd re-buy I think. I might try their other foundations. The product didn't hold very much and I ran out quite quickly.

This product is supposed to moisturise but leaves my skin feeling just as dry if not drier. That's no surprise since the product contains silica which is generally not very good for skin and does the opposite of hydrating it. Would not recommend. Did nothing for my skin and I have combination skin (both oily and dry). The smell is a little weird too.
