Project 10 Pan - Round 3 | 2016

Hey everyone! Here is Round 3 of Project 10 Pan that I promised you a few blog posts back!

NYC Smooth Skin Bronzing Face Powder in Sunny

This was a repurchase and I have used this product for years. It is my go-to drugstore bronzer that can do no wrong in my eyes! When I am very tanned, I tend to use this as a face powder.

ELF Makeup Mist & Set

This is a holy grail item of mine and I have numerous back-ups. I will continue to use this as long as ELF continues to make it!

Clarins BB Skin Perfecting Cream with SPF 25 in 00 Fair

It claims to revitalize and protects the skin. It also evens out the skin tone. This was a decent product but it is very light. I have fair skin but this was even too light for me. I like that it has an SPF because it protects my skin just as it claims to do. The coverage is build-able and if I am in a rush some days, I layer it on my face and just add a little bit of concealer. 

Revlon Nearly Naked Pressed Powder in 030 Medium

I found this to be fairly light for a medium powder to be honest. I am comparing it to other shades from different brands of course. I did really like how soft and blendable this powder was however, what I did not like was the packaging. It is very bulky, not ideal to travel with and the white packaging got very dirty rather quickly.

Sonia Kashuk Brightening Powder 

I used this to bake with and it was very inexpensive but, I felt like I went through this entire jar in no time at all.

YSL Volume Effet Mascara in Baby Doll

I really liked this mascara and the brush was fantastic! It coated each and every lash! It was great at layering each coat and was easy to get in the inner corners as well as to coat the bottom lashes. The packaging is gold and luxurious.

Rimmel Super Curler 24 Hour Mascara

This particular product claims to be for volume and to also curl your lashes. I would say that it does not last 24 hours and I still had to curl my lashes before use. The wand is thick and chunky which I didn’t like. I have small eyes and this wasn’t ideal for me. This mascara reminds me of the Benefit Roller Lash mascara only difference is that I like that one much better and the wand isn’t nearly as large. I would not repurchase this mascara.

Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Swivel Stick 

This is a repurchase of mine and it is by far my favourite lip balm. I am sad to be out of it and will pick-up another one once I am in The USA.

ELF Matte Lip Color in Praline

This has been my every day lip colour and I have gotten so many compliments on it! Some even said that it reminded them of the signature Kylie Jenner lip colour. The only negative thing I can say is that mine broke on me and I obviously continued to use it. I just had to apply it awkwardly so that the stick would not fall out completely. One more thing that I just thought of it that it is hard to find in stores. I have had no luck in-stores in Canada and The USA. Your best bet is to order it online.

Mac Lip Liner in Stripdown

I have been pairing this with Praline and it has been my go-to lip combo! As you can tell from the photo, the pencil is very small and I have used it up entirely!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.

May Empties | 2016

Hey everyone! This blog post is a few days late and I wasn't sure if I would post it at all because I didn't finish very many products last month. However, I still wanted to get something up for you and decided to post it anyway. 

Hair

L'Oreal Paris Hair Expertise Re-Nutrition Intense Mask - This product contains royal jelly and it is "active serum enriched." It lasted me quite a long time and I really did enjoy using it. My hair felt softer and more moisturized after using it! I would put it in my hair before I would go to sleep, put my hair in a bun and wash it out the following morning. I would definitely repurchase this product because it is effective and it is very affordable!

Face

Classic Clean Sea Breeze Original Formula - This is an astringent and it claims that it 'deep cleans down to the pores' with a 'tingling, refreshing feeling.' I would have to agree. I had previously used the blue formula for sensitive skin and I would have to say that I prefer that one much more!

Life Brand Skin Firming Peel-Off Face Mask in Honey & Caramel - It is free of parabens and it claims to "hydrate and tightens skin." I did notice that it did both however, I did not smell any caramel at all. It is rather on the messy side because it is a peel-off mask. Also, when applying, make sure that you put on a nice evenly coated layer because if you apply it too thick, it will take forever to dry and it will not be fully dried when you decided to peel it off making a very messy situation for you to deal with.

rue beaute! Grapefruit Vitamin Rich SOS Hydrating Face Mask - I actually found that my skin drank up this face mask! It is extremely hydrating like the name suggests and I really enjoyed using it!

rue beaute! Blueberry Extract Emergency Makeover Face Mask - These sheet masks are very easy to use and I enjoyed the scent of this mask!

rue beaute! Coconut Hydration Rehab Your Skin Face Mask - I would suggest checking out these sheet masks because they are only $1.99 USD for one and they do wonders for your skin!

rue beaute! Hangover Ginseng Face Mask - It claims that it is 'soothing and hydrating for even skin.' I love the packaging and the word 'hangover' made me laugh and that is why I purchased this mask in the first place to be honest with you.

Body

Secret Scent Expressions Clear Gel Antiperspirant in Cocoa Butter Kiss - This is a great smelling deodorant but I feel as though I need to reapply throughout the day. I really like the clear formula!

Hands

Bath & Body Works Deep Cleansing Hand Soap in Driftwood Surf - I absolutely love this scent and it reminds me of men's cologne! It is "a blend of: nectarine blossom, ocean driftwood and warm amber."

Bath & Body Works Deep Cleansing Hand Soap in Watermelon Lemonade - This scent was decent but I would not repurchase it. It isn't one of my favourites sadly. I wish there was more of a watermelon scent than a lemonade scent to it.

Samples

Orange Naturals MagPop! in Tangy Orange - I received these three samples to review and I always keep it 100 as you all know. I did thoroughly enjoy these because of the convenience factor and also, it is great for taking on the go! The orange flavour is great and you can read more of my thoughts regarding this product.

Wet Ones Antibacterial Hand & Face Wipes in the Citrus Scent - These come in very handy! They don't take up much room in your purse and I even can clean various surfaces using these!

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleansing Cloths - I have a lot of individual packs of these and you will see them quite frequently in my upcoming empties blog posts! I adore these wipes and remove all of my makeup!

Benefit Dew The Hoola - My friend gave me this sample to try-out and even though I haven't ever owned the original Hoola Bronzer in powder form, I have swatched it in Sephora multiple times. I can tell you that the original formula is much better than the liquid bronzer. I do not like it because even though it is easy to apply with a beauty blender, it shows up very light on my skin even though I am on the more fair side. I wish it was darker in colour and do not recommend this to anyone with tan skinned or even darker than that!

Josie Maran Vibrancy Argan Oil Foundation Fluid in Juicy RG50 - My friend also gave my this sample to test and this shade worked pretty well for my skin tone! I loved the formulation and it did not oxidize on me throughout the day. My skin looked flawless and I loved the coverage that it gave my skin! I would say that it is a medium to full-coverage foundation. I applied it using my beauty blender and it looked fantastic! The price tag is a bit steep as one bottle retails for $55 CAD. Also, the finish is more dewy because there is argan oil inside. I would recommend setting it with a good powder before going on about your day.

Stay tuned this week because I have a fun blog post coming out & I will be posting another Project 10 Pan blog post shortly!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.

Buffalo Shopping Haul | 2016

Hey everyone! I went to Buffalo on Sunday and wanted to share with you what I bought! I purchased more smaller items rather than higher ticketed items because I didn't even expect to find anything that caught my eye!

My friend wanted to check out rue 21 and I had never been inside one of their stores so needless to say, I was excited to go in! There is a lot of merchandise in-store and we didn't have much time to browse. I just picked up whichever items I found to be interested or if I liked the packaging, I bought it because I am a sucker for cute packaging! The fuzzy heart shaped keychain was too adorable to pass-up and it is very soft! It will look perfect on my new grey purse once I finally begin using it! I wasn't a fan of the other similar keychains with faces on them. 

I have no idea how well their brand of makeup wipes work but they were only $4 and it is easy to travel with or throw in my purse. I bought the bamboo earrings because they were 50% off and I only paid $2.50 for them! I used to have a much larger pair of these back in the day but they started turning green and I threw them out! These are my replacement for those and I hope that I don't have the same problem again. Lastly, you already know that I am obsessed with sheet masks lately and I purchased one of each kind that they had. I am excited to use them and I asked the sales associate about them but she said that she hadn't used them yet therefore, she couldn't speak to me about them. I will be sure to keep you posted though!

The brown purse is from Payless Shoes and it was on a sale rack right when I walked in. It said that it was 50% off which I assumed would be $15 from the original price of $30. When I got to the cash, she took an additional 50% off and I used a 20% off coupon leaving me to pay only $6.50 for this lovely purse!

The next stop was Love Culture inside Fashion Outlets. I was surprised to see them there because I remember shopping there a while back and I thought that they had closed. Anyway, regardless of the situation, I was glad to see them back again! I didn't want to try-on any of their cute clothes because like I had mentioned, we didn't have much time to spare and I focused mostly on accessories. I had been wanting a white hat like for quite some time and this one was only $6 and I couldn't pass that up! The gold spike necklace will be great for layering with other necklaces and was also $6. When I was checking out, I found a pack of my favourite hair ties for under $2 and had to add them to my basket! 

Surprisingly, I only purchased a travel sized hand cream at ULTA because I knew that if I was left along in that store for more than 20 minutes, I could do some serious damage. I have heard nothing but good things about the Soap & Glory brand and decided to try-out their Hand Food Cream.

And then I stumbled across some interesting food items that I couldn't pass up!

 There is a store I love going inside called It's Sugar which has such fun items that you really can't find anywhere else! I randomly found Pancake & Maple Syrup flavoured Jelly Bellies that I had to buy! I then went to Walgreens and found three bizarre yet interesting flavours of Pringles: Cheese Burger, Chile Con Queso & Tangy Buffalo Wing. The Cheese Burger Pringles actually taste like a legitimate cheese burger and the Chile Con Queso are my favourite out of the three! The Tangy Buffalo Wing are decent and are indeed tangy. Lastly, I can't go to Buffalo and not buy the pink frosted donuts from Dunkin Donuts! I purchased every single one that they had! 

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.

Why I Love Warehouse Shopping | Adidas Warehouse Sale 2016

Hey everyone! I went to the Adidas Warehouse sale a few days ago and even though I waited 2 hours to check-out, I must say that it was worth it! I will start off by saying that I was disappointed in the women's selection of clothing and bought ALL men's clothing because I liked the styles much better.

This first bomber jacket was the only one that I seen and I found it randomly when I was standing in the check-out line. When I got to the cash, there was no tag attached and she gave me this jacket for only $25! The style number on this jacket is AB7671 in-case you are wondering and is in a size small. I love the side pockets and the interior pockets!

Here is the next bomber jacket that I purchased. I knew that I would get good use out of it and I have been wearing this almost every single day! It goes with pretty much everything and I am obsessed with the interior because it is camo! The style number is AB9686. I paid $30 for it and is in size small.

This next jacket is probably one of my favourite items that I bought from the entire sale. It is called a Greeley Insulated Jacket and the style number is S89036. I only paid $50 and it is a size small. They refer to it as a snowboarding jacket online but even though it is oversized, it is very warm and I can't wait to style it!

I also managed to find this zip-up when I was standing in line. I love that it is all black and the stripes going down the side are matte. Another woman asked me if I was purchasing it because if not, she would and I told her that it was mine. I didn't find any others like it and there was a black & white version of it but I didn't like it at all. The style number is AB7770 and is in a size small. Only paid $25 for it. The stripes look more grey on camera but they are in-fact black in-person. 

I was honestly debating about this hoodie for a decent amount of time but I am glad that I decided to pick it up. It is extremely warm and I love the detail on it! The hood is what sold me on it. I will be wearing it when I run errands or if I am just hanging around the house on a more chill day. It is in size small and I only paid $25 for it. The style number is AB3527.

I came across this crewneck when I was rummaging through a bin in the men's section and this was the only one that I seen still in the plastic! I pulled it out and knew that I had to have it because it is so unique! It is in size large and will be very oversized but I am okay with that. It is navy and the Adidas logo is a snakeskin print and it continues on the back on the sweater. It was only $25 and the style number is AC0487.

The last item that I picked up was this amazing vest! I was looking for a smaller size earlier in the day when I was at the sale, but I accidentally came across a size small while I was waiting in-line! It was meant to be! There were also other people looking at it, picking it up and putting it down. I quickly grabbed it and I am overall so happy and excited to start styling it! The style number is AB3536 and I paid $25.

I spent over $200 but honestly, think about how much I saved. I didn't think twice about many of the items other than the one hoodie that I had previously mentioned. If I had paid full retail price for these items, it would have been closer to $1,000. I didn't see any shoes that caught my eye and this warehouse sale versus the last one that I went to last year, was more apparel focused which I didn't mind.

I will definitely be attending the next sale and I suggest you do too!  It was at the International Centre in the GTA. It is worth it and remember to go in with an open mind and you won't be disappointed! 

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.

April Empties | 2016

Hey everyone! Long time no talk! I didn't have enough items earlier in April to do an empties blog post so I waited a few extra days until I finished up some more items.

Hair

Selsun Blue Anti-Dandruff Shampoo - This one with the red label is my least favourite to be quite honest with you. There is only 1% of Pyrithione Zinc which is less than other formulas. I find it to be not as effective to battle my oily/dry scalp.

Oral Hygiene

Equate Flosser Picks (90 Count) - I purchased these at Wal-Mart and they did the job well! They are affordable and do not break while using! I definitely recommend these!

Colgate Total Whitening Toothpaste - I am really not a huge fan of this product but what I do like about it is that it comes in the gel formula. It is inexpensive and I have stocked up on these so I must get through them!

Face

Seaweed Mattifying Day Cream for Combination/Oily Skin - This is an item that I purchased at The Body Shop when they sent me a 50% off coupon which I used on this item. I found it to be hydrating but it did not help with my skin type. I would not repurchase this. I did like that it absorbed quick into the skin and I used it in the morning before I applied my makeup.

Hands

Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Oh Snap! - I have mentioned this before and I really can't get enough of the packaging! I am a huge sucker for packaging and aside from that, the gingerbread scent is absolutely heavenly! 

Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Vanilla Bean Noel - I have been using this scent for years and love a great vanilla scent!

Bath & Body Works Deep Cleansing Hand Soap in Perfect Beach Day - This scent is amazing! On the side of the bottle, it is described as having the following inside, "watery melon, young coconut and sparkling bergamot." I already want to buy another bottle of it! You need to smell it for yourself!

Body

Bath & Body Works Body Lotion in Carried Away - I have known about this scent for quite some time and have repurchased it many times. At first, it can seem rather strong but it wears nicely throughout the day. The notes are: raspberry, white jasmine and vanilla. It is perfect to wear around Valentine's Day!

Johnson's Baby Soothing Vapour Bath - I am a huge fan of Johnson's baby products and wanted to try something new out. I wasn't a huge fan and the formula is quite liquidy. I will go back to my other favourite products from the same brand!

Face Masks

The Face Shop Character Mask - This particular one has brightening properties and it is a fun mask to use! I found my skin to be tighter and very subtle after use! It is paraben free and I will want to use this again in the future!

Life Brand Hydrating Facial Sheet Mask with Hyaluronic Acide & Konjac - It claims to be hydrating and to also smooth the skin. I would have to agree and it was very affordable at Shoppers Drug Mart. They have many different ones to choose from!

Life Brand Brightening Facial Sheet Mask with Ouija & Scutellaria Extract - I have been on a sheet mask kick lately if you haven't been able to tell! This one promotes radiance and brightens your skin. I say that their claims are true and that it is a very easy product to use! You only leave it on for 10-15 minutes.

Samples

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleansing Cloths - I used up 4 of these and they are such great wipes! I will definitely purchase a pack of my own once I am out of wipes!

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleaner for Face & Body (All Skin Types) - I finished an entire bottle of this product a few years back and I forgot how much I liked it! It helps break-down my makeup and does not irritate my eyes!

Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion for Body (All Skin Types) - Same deal, I went through a bottle of this awhile back and it really absorbs quickly into the skin after a shower! My only issue with these two packets is that you HAVE TO use scissors to open them and I didn't have them close-by which led to much frustration to get it open.

The Face Shop Verbena Soothing Body Cleanser - I was given two free samples at the store with my purchase and the scent was very light as well as refreshing! It was extremely pleasant to use and I enjoyed these samples very much!

L'Occitane Milk Concentrate for Body - This was a great body lotion that I even used on my face! It is lightly fragranced and absorbed quickly into the skin with no sticky feeling being left behind.

Lionesse Gem Skin Care White Pearl Day Moisturizer - This is apparently a $200 skin care item if you buy the full-sized version. It does feel luxurious and did not make my face break-out but I don't like it enough to drop $200 on it.

The Body Shop Oils of Life - It says that it is an intensely revitalizing facial oil. I wouldn't use the word "intensely," but other than that, I would have to agree. I used it at night and my face felt fresh in the morning when I woke up.

The Body Shop Drops of Youth - Youth Cream - I REALLY enjoyed using this cream! It wasn't too thick and really penetrated into my skin. It was so soft the next day and I am wanting to purchase a larger size when I go through my other skin care products! I can't say enough good things about it!

Kaizen Naturals Whey Protein in Vanilla Bean - I want to give a shoutout to this company for sending me a sample of their product! I previously had a bad experience with another brand of protein powder and was skeptical to try another one. I am certainly glad that I did because this one tasted like a vanilla milkshake! I just added the entire packet to my water and stirred for 20-30 seconds are directed on the back. Some benefits are that it is: gluten free, there are no artificial colours or flavours, it is sweetened with Stevia, from grass fed cows and there is low temp filtration. There are 24 grams of protein, only 120 calories and only 1 gram of sugar which is amazing! I had a great experience using it and am excited to see which other flavours they have!

Miscellaneous

Nature's Bounty Hair, Skin and Nails Gummies with Biotin - These vitamins really need no introduction because I speak about them all the time. Basically, they are my holy grail and help my hair as well as my nails grow long & be strong!

TUMS Antacid Ultra Strength 1000 mg in Peppermint (72 Count) - I have been using TUMS for over a decade and always have some in my purse. They have helped me on numerous occasions as well as my friends! I can't be without them.

Secret Scent Expressions Antiperspirant in Va Va Vanilla - This is in my top 3 favourite deodorants of all time and it is vanilla scented! I can't say no to that!

BIC Soleil Twilight Razors (5 Count) - These are incredible and really help me get a close shave! The only downfall is that they dull very quickly and I find myself replacing them quicker than I would like to. 

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.

L'Oreal Warehouse Sale Thoughts & Swatches

Hey everyone! I went to the L'Oreal Warehouse Sale a few days ago and I wanted to share with you the items that I picked up. They actually moved locations from North York to Markham. I remember finding a great YSL kit at their old location but I didn't seem to find much at their new space! The parking is MUCH better! At the old location, you would have to wait for a spot and there would be security would would help you with your parking spot. 

What I Purchased

Prices

I managed to purchase 3 lipsticks and one nail care set. The two Maybelline Color Sensational Lipsticks were $2.75 each. The L'Oreal Color Riche Matte Lipstick was $2.50. The L'Oreal Nail set was $1.75. I felt as though they were being sneaky because they only hand a few of these sets located by the nail polish section and they had only one of the two bottles closer to cash that were selling for $2.00.

I will get some good use of of these two products because I am about to be out of my other one! I couldn't go wrong for $1.75! You get a base coat and a top coat in the bundle. There is no step two because that is for your nail polish colour of choice.

L'Oreal Color Riche Matte Lipstick in 130 Androgyne

 I will not wear this alone but will be using it to mix with other lip colours! The packaging is old-fashioned but the product itself smells minty and is quite opaque!

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in 960 Tangy Tulip

I really like this shade of orange! It is perfect for Spring and will look great paired with my orange lip liner from ColourPop Cosmetics! 

Here is a photo of me wearing the shade by itself

Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in 735 Rose Rush

This is a nice red colour! I actually don't have any full-sized red lipsticks and I think that it is about time that I added one to my collection!

Overall:

I just want to mention that they do NOT accept cash. It is quite strange and I do not know the reason behind it. Also, they do not have any plastic bags. They will charge you about $2-$3 for a L'Oreal branded tote bag. I urge you to bring your own bag if you need to carry more than a handful of items out of the store! Also, I was disappointed that they show cased some NYX products on the displays but there were none to be found for purchase in-store!

This sale is by invite only and there is a limit on how much you are allowed to spend. There is a security guard who does a quick scan before you leave the building and if you have to use the bathroom before you go, you have to go back towards the entrance which is a weird layout in my opinion. Last thing before I go that I wanted to mention, it is the last week to visit the sale this week so if you are in the Markham area, check it out because you may have better luck than I did!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.

March Empties | 2016

Hey everyone! It is time again for another round of empties! You can sort through my used up items with me and see everything that I went through for the month of March! 

Hair

Nioxin Cleanser for Fine Hair #1 Normal to Thin-Looking Shampoo - This was a product that was recommended to me by my dermatologist. It was about $50 and lasted me for about a year. The formula is blue and is not thick. It was a decent product overall and I was using it to help with my scalp because it was very dry. 

Face

Bioré Deep Cleansing Pore Strips - I can’t go a week without using my Biore pore strips! They effectively remove all the extra gunk on my face and leave it feeling very clean! It is gross, but I enjoy seeing what exactly came off my face which is usually many white heads!

Mouth

Colgate Total Toothpaste in Clean Mint - Again, it is a very affordable and basic toothpaste. It performed as it should and didn’t do anything out of the ordinary.

Altoids Smalls in Cinnamon - These are very powerful but I feel that because they are so small, I need to take two instead of one to get the fresh breath that I am looking for!

Crest 3D Luxe Whitestrips in Glamorous White - These are my number one go-to strips I use when I want to whiten-up my smile. There are 14 treatments and like the packaging suggests, there is a “strong grip” and there is “no slip.” I recommend these to all my friends and family. I do suggest waiting to buy them when they are on sale because they can get quite expensive.

Body

Bath & Body Works Shea & Vitamin E Body Lotion in Mahogany Teakwood - This scent is one of my favourites! It is very musky and masculine. There are also notes of lavender!

Hands

Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Oh Snap! - This was such a great scent to use around the holidays! The packaging is what originally drew me to this particular bottle!

Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Vanilla Bean Noel - This is a scent that Bath & Body Works comes out with around the holidays and if you love vanilla, you have to check it out!

Bath & Body Works Gentle Deep Cleansing Hand Soap in White Pear & Fig - They describe it as a “crisp white pear layered with frosted fig.” It was nice to use but I wouldn’t run out to buy it again anytime soon.

Kleenex Fresh On The Go Wipes - These came in handy and are very convenient to throw into my purse. What I didn’t like is how they seal the packaging. The protective seal kept coming off and because it couldn’t adhere on properly, some of my wipes did in fact dry out.

Vitamins

Nature’s Bounty Hair, Skin & Nails Gummies - You already know that I love this product and I am already on my next bottle!

Nature’s Bounty - Vitamin C & D3 (100 softgels) - I purchased this bottle when I was getting sick to help get my body back on track. I felt as though it did help me and I will purchase this again in the future!

Samples

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleansing Cloths - I love Cetaphil cleansing cloths in general and when I received these, I was overjoyed! They are very strong and durable cloths. You can remove your entire face of makeup at the end of the night using only 1 cleansing cloth. They are ultra soft and they will not irritate your eyes when you are taking off your eye makeup. They are great to take on the go no matter what your lifestyle is like! They are also fragrance free which is another great selling point. I used up 6 of these and have plenty more in my stash!

Kiehl’s Ultimate Strength Hand Salve - This is my second deluxe sample of this particular formula and I would not go out and purchase it. My friend hated the smell of it because it is extremely minty and it was a very standard product in my opinion. 

Derma E Hydrating Day Creme - I was sent these samples for my consideration but my opinion is honest. I did really enjoy using this fabulous product! It is: soft, hydrating, fast to absorb, not sticky and there is a light scent that reminds me of bubblegum! I would actually purchase this because it is not too thick and there is a ton of vitamins infused into this cream such as vitamin C and E. Also, not to mention all the beneficial antioxidants like green tea! 

Jeunesse Instantly Ageless -  I was to give a shoutout to Karen from Idaho who was kind enough to send me two samples! I found that it absorbed very quickly into the skin, there was no scent to the lightweight formula and it felt tightening on the skin in a good way! The formula is pink in colour and you only need to use less than a pea-sized amount. You need to work quickly and remain expressionless until it fully dries on your face! If you use too much by accident, it will appear white on your face and you can gently remove the excess with a damp cotton swab. 

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.
