Hello girlfriends and welcome to another
episode of Tried and Tested!
Today we're going to trying out some cheap makeup
from Miniso.
Miniso is a chain of stores and they sell everything from
household items to make up
and they're super cheap. So they're kind of like a
competitor to Daiso,
but in terms of aesthetic is more like Muji or Uniqlo.
So today we're going to be trying out the cheap makeup.
So here are some makeup
brushes from Miniso and they're said to
be the Real Technique dupes actually if
you have a look, they kind of look almost
exactly the same. Except that these I
like 1/10 of the price.
So this comes in a little pouch like this, and then also
you can open this up,
you fold it down,
tighten that up, and so it stands!
So actually right, the Real Techniques one is also really similar to this.
This is basically like a complete copy
of the other brushes!
So this is like a
multi-purpose brush
So in terms of the brush itself, it actually
feels pretty soft
and the handle is also pretty solid.
It's got a nice weight
It doesn't feel like super cheap or anything
I'm just going to apply some loose powder
This is pretty good, it's pretty soft the only thing is maybe
it's not like super fluffy but as in
it's still a decent brush.
Okay so next up is the foundation brush
Also feels about the same, soft bristles good density
Did a pretty good job!
Nice and blended, no streaks.
it definitely doesn't feel like a lux brush by any means
but it feels like a decent brush.
Okay now we have the eyeshadow brush.
Yeah it picks up the eyeshadow really well
and that was just with a touch
huh
yeah that's really good. Oh, it's really soft
this is a really good eyeshadow brush.
This is really nice!
For a set of brushes that are $3.90 I think these are pretty good
Like they are soft, they work, they pick up the product well.
I really wanted to not like it because I think it's not really cool that it kind of
ripped off like real techniques like completely
I mean you could have made a good $3.90 brush set
without copying everything right?
I would rate this uh
an 8 out of 10.
For $3.90 I think it's an amazing brush set.
Like I think it's crazy.
I mean even the cheap brushes I mean it'd
be hard to get a cheap brush for like $3.90 right? Like one brush.
So this with everything $3.90 I think that's pretty impressive.
These are eyelashes from Miniso.
And I actually personally use these and I love them because they're very light
and they look very natural and I think they like what $5.90? Right?
Yah! I find that to be a very good price point for 10 eyelashes.
I actually mentioned these in the what's in my makeup bag episode,
so if you haven't watched it already go check it out,
and then come back.
They're not all perfectly identical but I don't have a big problem with them.
So I really love these lashes because
I find them to be really soft and fluttery
and also the thread that they are on
they're very fine. So it's easy to blend it into your lash line.
I find the application of this like super easy because
it's so malleable the other thing is because it's crisscross
I feel like it adds the, the density without looking very fake.
because if you can see the individual hairs are still super fine
and then the other thing is the thin band I think makes it really concealable.
So overall everything looks really natural
I would rate this a
nine out of ten
because I still feel that actually sometimes the band
like depending on your luck, sometimes you can feel like the threadiness of it
and also, I mean sometimes the lashes are a bit not even and all that,
I would have to take away some points for that.
But overall like definitely a nine.
These are $5.90 for a box of ten, so fifty nine cents a pair.
Compared to the other eyelash brands out there this is much cheaper and
for what you get at that price
So this is the sonic facial cleansing brush and it's $25.90
so this is like one tenth of the price of some of these sonic facial cleansing brushes out there
and that's, I think it's pretty insane.
So it's $25.90 also comes with a replacement brush. What?
I'm really liking this stand.
I mean, I like stands.
It feels so soft! This is ridiculous
And it's quite quiet as well.
Actually it feels rougher on my face then it did on my hand.
On my hand I thought it felt really soft,
but now that it's on my face I can definitely feel like a bit pokey?
It feels like it's scratching my face.
No like!
Ouch!
So I've tried many different brushes,
from the cheap to like the really expensive and I would say that
- and I don't usually say things like that -
but this is the worst of the lot.
That was really painful!
My face wash wasn't like foaming or anything
Yah and I kept going, thinking "no no, maybe just in my head"
But the more I went the more like this really hurts!
Like it just feels like it scratched off the upper layer of my skin
I mean yup my skin is soft now cuz it scratched it off
I don't know. Not a fan.
Not a fan.
Zero zero zero.
Zero. I think this maybe good for your
elbows and your knees maybe
Ow!
This is an eyeshadow pencil with a brush.
It's not really a pencil,
it looks more like a crayon,
and the brush isn't really a brush either is like a cushion
Oh that's very nice and creamy and very pigmented!
Okay let me try blending it out with this brush.
Oh okay so a bit
weird with this brush
because it feels like it's erasing and not blending.
Alright so the color comes off really well
It's got a liquidy, bronzy feel.
It's interesting cuz sometimes these crayon things look quite
creamy but this one is coming off more like a gel.
Yah, and it feels very wet.
Oh the colors really pretty though.
Okay now I'm just gonna try this like brush,
or a tip, or a cushion
Whatever it is called.
I think for this I would rather use my fingers.
The texture of this I think it lends itself quite nicely to finger blending
For me like the effect this looks more dewy and clearer
It's like it's got a clearer base.
This is $3.90! Wow!
So this thing I feel like it doesn't set very well at all
So this has been sitting for a while but just now I just rubbed it again
and the whole thing just disappeared.
So if you have oily lids I have a feeling this isn't gonna work for you
I will give this a ss
six and a half out of ten
Just because it doesn't set very well but I'm loving the color and
I'm loving how easy it is to blend, but like not setting is the problem.
This is the Big Eyes Flawless Liquid Eyeliner from Miniso
of course it's from Miniso, everything is from Miniso today.
And it's supposed to be waterproof, sweat proof and long lasting
24 hours they say.
Best part of all this $3.90.
So let's test this out.
It's very easy to draw with this.
It's got nice control on this tip.
The color is really nice and black
Oh it sets really fast as well!
Eh!
That's weird. When I rub it is not budging,
but I did notice that the color has changed
I'm just going to draw another line then you can see.
That's two different colors.
So after rubbing it, it became this color
but like this is the original black.
It actually looks a bit green. Like if you look very closely it looks a bit green
So it's supposed to be waterproof, let us try.
Color has changed again. This is very weird because the color is changing here
but it's not coming off I don't know where it's gone.
Like where did it go?
Put a tissue over it.
No ink has come off.
Yah, it's really easy to draw.
The colors is like really black.
I realised that you do have to go a couple of times to kind of get it like evenly coated.
In terms of the and then of the tip and  everything,
it is pretty easy to control
They say that this tip is always dry,
that is true because it does feel a bit scratchy
like it does feel a little bit dry but I think that's down to
handling because if you do it like this
which is apparently how you're supposed to do it
then it actually feels alright
Overall, based on my first impressions, I would give it a
7 out of 10
but for the price $3.90 I think this is pretty amazing
Alright this is a cushion tip lipstick
it really smells like a cushion, like that foamy material
is just that's all I can smell right now
The product is in here and this is a cushion tip applicator
so this doesn't feel creamy
neither does a few watery
neither does it feel powdery
I'm so confused!
It just feels like, like pigment.
Woah! Sorry.
Once it gets on, it's stains
it doesn't stay completely
but definitely leaves a stain behind
I guess if anything it'll be closer to cream,
than the rest but doesn't feel creamy.
Sponge tip is pretty hard.
I am not feeling this at all
the application is really quite hard to get even one
It's kind of like patchy.
It's not drying out my lip but at the same time it's not
like moisturizing or anything.
It's pretty pigmented and I can see how this
could be good for like a gradient effect because the pigment is quite strong.
I am personally not a big fan of I think this kind of texture on the lips.
It feels like the product sits on top of the sponge?
And you kind of just like dab it on. I can't really tell.
So overall I would rate this
5 out of 10? Yeah I think it's, I think it's alright.
I'll give this a 5 out of 10.
