I have to say I really do love the revolution balms! They work beautifully for me personally. I've seen so many bad reviews of these, and the Jones Road Beauty ones, but I think a lot of people don't apply them the way they are intended and put on way too much. I use a teeny tiny amount and get a lovely soft radiant flush. No stickiness or oil slick, just a soft glow. If you want a good amount of blush colour, these aren't for you.They aren't really designed for that. Great as a lip balm too in some of the colours. 🙂

for me dry shampoos only work, when I work them in my freshly washed hair. It keeps my hair from getting greasy quite a long time. But when I try to apply on greasy hair, to make it look clean, it always looks terrible, line a greaseball with flower. Maybe you can try it the olaplex on freshly wasched hair too. maybe it can prevent geasyness for a while 🤷🏼♀️

This is such a beautifully done, polite video about products that really didn’t work for you. You’ve hopefully saved some people, who are on a tight budget, from wasting their money. Don’t be worried people may be offended because they like the product that didn’t suit you, that’s okay, as we all like different looks. I’m just really pleased just how you explained why you didn’t enjoy the products, with constructive criticisms ❤❤

Thank you! Had the same experience with the Gucci Foundation. Just odd. One day it seemed to change shades. Literally. I looked like a Japanese kabuki performer. I try to mix it in with other foundations so as not to have to admit that I got shook down at Sephora. But you have convinced me to throw it out. My next try will be the Estes Lauder double wear. But must admit, NARS and Armani have never let me down.

I sent the Charlotte Tilbury lip blurs back (they take lightly used returns in the UK) The Lisa Eldridge ones are far better. I agree with you on the Dior lipstick, it was horrid.

The olaplex dry shampoo ive managed to get to work in my fine oily hair. I wash my hair first thing in the morning then before i go to bed that night, spray the dry shampoo into your hair at the root. When you wake up the next morning, do another little sprits to your roots. I didnt get lots of volume but i managed to make my hair go longer between washes without a gritty feeling i get from other dry shampoos. It seems to work better using it preventative before the hair gets overly greasy than once the hair is greasy

You might try putting the dry shampoo in your roots before bed, sleeping in it, and fluffing your roots upside down with the hair dryer on low heat in the morning. I've not tried the Olaplex, but this method works fabulous for me with Living Proof and the warm "scalp massage" in the morning feels so good 😀

The first product you reviewed, the Revolution balms…look like a “dupe” for the Jones Road Miracle balms. Same deal - you have to break the waxy seal, warm the product in your hands. On me they looked greasy, felt like spreading lip balm on my face, smelled bad and made my skin break out. And they were expensive ($38!). I had a blush and a bronzer and threw both away. ☹️

Morning Gemma. Thank you for this video. I’m surprised about the two foundations you mentioned as they are so expensive and from huge brands (albeit they are not cruelty free 😢) but the foundation I reach for when I absolutely need it to look good and not have to worry about it is the No 7 Hydraluminous foundation and its £15!!!! It’s still the best foundation I have ever used and I have tried loads (but not brands that are not cruelty free). I promise you. Try it. And I’m 55 so if it works on my old and dry skin then it will work for everyone. ❤. Happy new year.

I have to say Gemma, It was a have a good belly laugh video for me. I loved the description of some of these products. I do like a few Revolution products but only a few and the annoying thing for me is, I buy one, it's great, go to repurchase and it could still be great or it's absolutely pants and it's the same product that was fine in the first tube. I usualky give Revolution products away now as finding the same product at the same quality is hard enough. My biggest bugbear with them is the eyeshadow palettes, there's some stunning palettes and some dire palettes. Its hard to get great quality control apparently. I've had my fair share if naff products across all make-up brands but over the years I've learned don't buy unless there's a return policy for dearer products. I've stuck to that and have had to return a fair few so it's not just Revolution, but they churn out so many new products all the time, maybe they should release a few then get the quality controls right before considering releasing more product.

I have to give Revolution a thumbs up for one item only. I get my revolution eye pallets in Marshalls here in the US they are about 7.99 or 8.99 a pallet. They have so many shades in the pallet that are fabulous. There is only one problem, it’s a huge problem in my estimation is that the color story is all over the place. Maybe the people at Revolution who might be watching to p,ease if they would only put the colors in order. All the light colors all the medium colors all the dark colors together . But all in all I would pay twice this for those eyeshadow pallets. I get more compliments on my eye make up when I wear these. So I will deal with the fact that sometimes I forget which color I’m using because I can’t even remember where it is in the pallet 🤦🏼♀️ and enjoy it because it’s inexpensive and just as good as all of those high end pallets that are sitting in Sephora or Ulta.
