Based on the name I imagined this foundation very differently, something more lightweight and hydrating, but to me it looks like they just reused the formula of their True Skin foundation when I compared them side by side. It's a thick formula with medium coverage and a matte finish. On my skin this looks a bit dry in places and I need a good hydrating or oily base to make it blend into the skin better. Due to the thickness of the formula I find it has the ability to fill in the pores, but it doesn't always look good and I don't like how it looks on textured skin. The shade range looks very good. I picked 012 C which isn't the lightest one and it's perhaps a bit pale for me. It's a shade with cool undertones while they have a version of this depth with warm and neutral tones. Shades don't correspond to their True Skin range, as 002 at the latter is about the same depth as 012C at Invisible Cover.

I was hoping Essence used the same shade as at the stick version of under eye brightener, which is a good match for me and has a nice brightening effect, but the stick format isn't brilliant on my dry skin. This shade is deeper, closer to Catrice's Under Eye Brightener in a pot, the lightest 010 shade, meaning it's not a pale pink, but a light salmon pink. Since I'm so pale, I find this doesn't work as well for me. When I use it under a concealer or foundation, that pinkness shines through and just looks like I still have circles, but on skin tones deeper than mine this should work well. If you like Catrice's version, but would like a liquid format, this is it, though it is a touch lighter. Formula is a nice hydrating one, good for dry skin and it reminds me a lot of their Stay All Day concealer.

A powder with three colour correcting colours: a pink and peach for under eye brightening and a lilac for counteracting yellow tones. You can also mix all the shades for a neutral powder. There are three separate compartments and a removable disk that allows you to shake the powder out of just one compartment. I saw no colour correcting or brightening on my skin tone. I checked the before/after pictures and videos and I don’t think there's a difference, just that it mattifies. Mixed together it also appears to be just a basic mattifying powder. Maybe the colour correcting is more obvious on deeper skin tones. I don't notice any blurring or smoothing on my skin and currently my skin is so dry that this can look obvious on the skin, especially over Catrice's Invisible Cover foundation.

I have the pink shade 10 Tickle me Pink, which is one of my favourites. I picked this one online, so it was a blind buy and the colour of the packaging is luckily deceptive. This is a peachy pink, less bright than the Blush Affair Stunning Strawberry, but in the same colour family. Formula is creamy and I can easily swipe it on the cheeks, then blend with fingers. Pigmentation is more intense as at Tickle and the shade is deeper. This shade looks good on the lips too. This is currently my most used blush because it's so quick and easy to apply.

The textured part is the cream blush and the other a classic powder one. This is a very intense and pigmented formula on both sides. Both sides are nice quality, as is usual for Catrice's blushes. I only need the smallest amount of both shades, since I'm so pale. Stunning Strawberry is a vibrant peachy pink shade, much stronger than anything in my collection and both shades have a natural/matte finish. The cream side is a hint more pink. This is best suited for deeper skin tones.

I have this formula in 03 Soft Beige and 07 Classic Red so I already reviewed it. Formula is soft and glides on the lips easily. There's an added sharpener in the back, but I never sharpen such pencils, since I find them precise enough. It can feel a bit dry on its own, but not always. It doesn't wipe off easily, so it has quite a decent staying power. Cushion Talk is a light-medium mute pink with peach tones.

A new line of lipliners by Maybelline. Formula is nicely creamy, this glides on the lips with ease. If I try to rub the colour off the lips with fingers, only a small amount wipes off, so it lasts well on the lips, though it doesn't survive a meal completely intact (oils break it down, like all makeup). 006 Line Leader is the type of colour I wear most, a muted nude-pink with some peachy tones and it looks great. I'm not sure if they have a corresponding lipstick, I tend to always just wear a lipliner on its own, but it's a better version of SuperStay Ink Crayon in Lead the Way, as it's a half a shade lighter and more pink. It's very similar to their Color Sensational Lip Liner in Dusty Rose, it's just a hint more peach.

Usually pastel pencils suck, but this is creamy and has a good colour payoff, though this is a very pale shade, almost off-white. In the waterline it looks more white than blue, but it does brighten the eyes. On the top lash line it doesn't glide as smoothly as for example Deborah 24 Ore Waterproof Eye Pencil, but going over the line twice gives an almost fully opaque look.

Revlon expanded their well-known line of lipsticks by twelve shades and we got seven of those in Slovenia (and Croatia). It's a mix of crème and frosty finishes like at all classic Super Lustrous formulas and these are hailed as being hydrating as well as lightweight. Apparently this is still the number one lipstick in the USA, despite all the new launches (their Suede Ink are my faves, but they are matte). After Glow is a frosty nude, Daylight Delight a creamy nude, Candied rose is a cool dusty rose, Electric watermelon a vivid pink watermelon, Fire Peach a vibrant coral, Dirty Shirley a frosty warm peachy red and Wild Saffron a warm red. Formula is nicely comfortable, has a good colour pay-off (though not like Suede Ink, but this is a cream finish lipstick) and they feel very pleasant for dry lips. Some shades don't look appealing to me in the tube, but Daylight Delight is a nice surprise and most of the shades look ok on my skin tone.

Reviews for this were quite positive, so I was expecting a lot from it, but this is by far the worse waterproof mascara I've tried. It doesn't just fail at holding the lashes curled, the lashes just drop back down when you start applying this, despite investing several minutes in curling beforehand. It's also the only waterproof mascara I've tried that smudges and as soon as I wipe off the black line that transferred on my upper eyelid, it just reappears the next time I open my eyes. I have never encountered that even at regular mascaras. It adds a lot of volume because it's a type of formula that deposits a heavy coat on the lashes quickly, but it's poor at separation despite the silicone brush with a good length and position of bristles and you quickly get a spidery lash effect. Taking pictures of this mascara for a review and going a video was a nightmare. I'll toss this one to the bottom of my drawer, maybe give it a chance in a few months to see if it thickened and dried, but so far I'm very disappointed. Also this can't be removed with a regular micellar, you need an oil. It behaves as a regular smudgy mascara with no hold, but it's equally hard to remove as waterproof mascaras. Just awful.

I didn't check the reviews for this, I just put it in the basket for free shipping, but just like the mascara, this didn't impress me. While it's not as bad as the mascara, its watery, partly sheer black formula and a hard, short, non-flexible applicator just don't deliver the results I'm used to from for example Catrice's eyeliners. It's hard to create a thin, precise line with this - actually impossible for my level of skill and the formula stays sheer in places even if I got over it again. I haven't tested how long it lasts, but it's not waterproof and the swatch on my hand was quite quickly removed with regular hand washing.

I've been using Seche Vite for many years, but it's hard to get, so I wanted to find a decent alternative. The only thing I care about at top coats is that it dries the nail polish as quickly as possible. Seche Vite does that well, but it thicken quickly, way before you have a chance to use up the bottle. This Catrice version is very decent and easy to get (provided they don't discontinue it, which knowing them will likely happen). It dries the nails almost as quick as Seche, though it's not the promised 40 seconds, but in a minute or two it's dry to the touch, but you still have to be careful to avoid dings for maybe 15 minutes or a half an hour.  

This applies glossy and it slowly turns matte. It takes over a minute for it to become fully, velvety matte.

This is a good gold shade. The first coat is sheer with a lot of golden tiny shimmer, so it can be used as a topper, but with three coats you get a really nice golden effect. It's medium annoying to remove.

A deep cool red with a glossy creamy finish. It's opaque in one coat, but for better staying power it's best to apply two.

I expected more from this, especially after seeing it on video what a nice holographic effect it has - I'm doing something wrong, for sure. The holo effect is not that visible, not like at my ancient Depend nail polish that looks like has been discontinued. It's more like a basic silver nail polish - still pretty, but I miss more holo reflects. First coat is quite sheer, while full opacity is achieved with three coats.

A new cleansing oil in DM. It has 7% squalane, but the main ingredient is sunflower oil. It also has Centella Asiatica Extract at the end of the list. Formula is light and it doesn't emulsify much, in other words it's very similar to most cleansing oils I've tried. It washed off quite well, but a second cleanse with something foamy is needed to get it off completely. It makes my eyesight foggy. It doesn't remove waterproof mascara and it's not best for regular mascara either, but it can remove most makeup ok. I did a test with my most lasting makeup and Catrice's liquid eyeliner and Revlon's Limitless liquid matte lipstick proved to be too much of a challenge for it, so I needed a second cleanse to get it all off. It's more on the weak side of makeup removers, but for those who don't wear heavy coats of it, it should be ok. It has no scent. I suspect it's breaking me out like a great majority of cleansing oils, but that's just my skin.

I think I got the right thing. I was going to repurchase the Atopicance Baby cleansing oil, but I only found this in the DM. Ingredients look similar, but I haven't tried this yet. It use the other one every day as a basic cleanser because it's gentle and effective.

An oily retinol serum that's quite light. I like the texture and I've had zero irritations or dryness despite this being 1%. But I have concerns this isn't as strong as it claims. I find it suspicions that I've had zero reaction to it, not even a mind warming sensation like at Afrodita Professional Retinol Shot, but it's probably squalane keeping that dryness and other side effects at bay. This is easily accessible in local drugstore and it's affordable. I've been using this for almost a month and I don't see anything special in my skin.

A serum with peptides. It's a light formula that's easy to layer, so I quite like it. Whether it's doing anything apart from a hydrating effect, I don't know.
