I find that this works better as a lippie topper than a lipstick on its own, as the shade can be a tad overwhelming and not very flattering for my skin tone.

NYX Liquid Suede lipstick (Kitten Heels)
The lipstick smudges so easily and gets everywhere, especially on the teeth.

Himalaya Botanique Complete Care toothpaste
Received a sample from iHerb - it was alright; I still prefer Jason PowerSmile Antiplaque & Whitening toothpaste and Kiss My Face Sensitive Toothpaste which I use on a daily basis.
Innisfree whitening line
Received the following samples from Innisfree:
1. Whitening Pore Facial Cleanser
2. Whitening Pore Skin
3. Whitening Pore Cream
Did not use the pore skin product as I do not use toners. Thought the line was alright in general.

Bliss Triple Oxygen Self-Activating Facial
A little gimmicky, but it does kinda work. If I use this in-shower (as the last step after cleansing my face), I feel like my face is like tight/dry when I step out.
Diamond Lash falsies
Currently my favourite falsies!
Kevyn Aucoin Contour Duo on the go
The Contour Duo On The Go features face-accentuating must haves, including easy-to-use The Sculpting Powder. This sheer formula glides on effortlessly for a crease-fee finish that mimics natural skin, offering minimal-to-full coverage to enhance the look of bone structure. The complex features brown, red, and grey pigments to give off a natural-looking shadow effect that's ideal for all skin tones, creating a buildable, dramatic, and chiseled look. The Celestial Powder illuminates facial features in the bestselling universal shade Candlelight, which casts an opalescent, radiant glow over the beautiful contours of the face. Both cashmere-like textures blend easily together for natural-looking definition and subtle glow.

Maybelline Eye Studio Master Precise eyeliner
One of my favourite liquid eyeliners - inexpensive, easy to apply, does not smudge and is waterproof.
NYX Wonder Stick
I admit that cream/stick bronzers/highlighters are more tedious and troublesome to use than powder options, however the effect post-application is always more beautiful and natural. I am obsessed with this NYX Wonder Stick - inexpensive and creates subtle contours. I use the universal shade.
Too Faced Born This Way concealer
No extraordinary recollection of this concealer, so I guess it was just mediocre and average in performance.

Urban Decay Naked Skin concealer
Not a fan of this concealer - does not build up well in terms of coverage, and did little to hide my dark circles or brighten the undereye area.
Juice Beauty Phyto-Pigments Flawless Serum Foundation
Skin perfecting foundation and age-defying serum in one with concentrated plant-derived Phyto-Pigments. This buildable to full-coverage formula blends seamlessly for a flawless finish while delivering a noticeably smoother, more youthful looking appearance. Formulated without silicones, its hydrating coconut alkanes and antioxidant-rich technology provides comfort, as well as leaving skin looking radiant.

The Face Shop Paraffin Nutrition Nail Pack
My cuticles are often very dry and peeling so I got myself a bunch of these nail packs to keep my nails moisturised.
Sonia Kashuk Blending Sponge
Because I am too cheapo to invest in a Beauty Blender, I got a Sonia Kashuk alternative. I destroyed the sponge after a few uses (it unfortunately tore). However, through the handful of times that I used the sponge, I was convinced that make-up sponges do help apply foundation more evenly than brushes.
Petite Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch
One of my favourite eye masks!
COSRX Honey Ceramide eye cream

This eye cream was ok. Did nothing spectacular for anti-aging, brightening and de-puffing, but it did keep my undereye area hydrated throughout the night.

Real Purity deodorant
Created with the most sensitive skin in mind, this quick drying formula will outlast even the muggiest, sweat-inducing activity. Pure essential oils provide a long-lasting, clean scent, while organic aloe and kosher vegetable glycerin keep your skin dry.
- Organic pure lavender essential oil eliminates odor without clogging your pores
- Organic pure apricot oil keeps your skin dry and residue-free
- Lavender and rosemary essential oils give you a fresh, clean scent
- Naturally sourced and organic ingredients.

I'll be honest with you - this product came as a shock to me. If you're expecting a solid textured roll-on deodorant, this will let you down because the deodorant is in liquid form (think essential oils). I found that I had to air my pits for a tad post-application so the deodorant can dry before I put on my top to avoid staining.
COSRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser
I use this as my morning face cleanser and it doesn't strip my skin of hydration. I am only my second tube now.
Mason collagen beauty cream
I use this as a neck cream. Product claims it's pear-scented but I don't smell anything. Like the texture - not too heavy or sticky. Will have to use it for a while longer before I establish a verdict on its effectiveness.
Tony Moly Peach hand cream

It is certainly more troublesome to use this tub of hand cream than as compared to if the product could be dispensed from a squeeze tube. Nonetheless, I do like the light texture and pleasant peachy scent.
Son & Park Beauty Water
I have been masking every night in a bid to keep my skin moisturised through the night and looking young. Instead of washing off the residue from the sheet mask, I pour Son & Park Beauty Water on a cotton pad and pat my face with it. It soaks up the stickiness of the mask residue, while keeps my face hydrated as well. However, I can smell a slight alcohol scent so just flagging for those who are sensitive/particular about this.
H&M In-Between Days dry shampoo

Have laid off dry shampoos for awhile now, but bought this some time back. It was ok - nothing spectacular.
3CE White Milk Sleeping Mask
Too sticky in texture and has an overpowering scent that I dislike. Thankfully I got it as a freebie from Sephora, as I chucked it out when I was only about halfway through the product.
Nourish Organic Age Defense Face Cream
Used this as a neck cream and frankly did not like it - did nothing for me.
Does anyone have a good anti-aging neck cream to recommend?
Suppin Powder
Purchased this from Don Quijote in Japan. Love it! It is not too matte and keeps my make-up even. Plus it has a nice, subtle scent.
CoverGirl Total Tease mascara
Am pretty much on the fence about this mascara. While it does not smudge and holds curl very well, it does clump a little and causes my lashes to fall out when I'm removing my make-up.
Farsali Unicorn Essence
EOS Delicate Petals body lotion
A body moisturiser with lightweight consistency and a slight scent.
Urban Decay Troublemaker mascara
Nothing spectacular about this mascara - does not hold curl well. Would not re-purchase. Also, is it just me or are drugstore brand mascaras better?
