Transcript
00:00Hey guys, it's me Anne and this is Beauty With Me.
00:02Urban Outfitters launched a makeup line, people, and it is very exciting.
00:07I have been using only products available at Urban Outfitters for the entire week, and
00:12I am back to report my findings.
00:13Before we get started though, please make sure you are subscribed down below.
00:17Beauty With Me comes out every Monday at 11 a.m.
00:21I know my eyebrows might look a little crazy in this video.
00:24It's because I actually got my eyebrows microbladed last week, so they're in the kind of healing
00:29process.
00:30So please forgive me on that one, but stay tuned for the video on that coming out next
00:34week.
00:35Urban Outfitters' new collection, which is called Ohai, they have everything from eye shadow,
00:40lip balm, deodorant, but they don't have any hair care and they don't have a lot of skin
00:43care.
00:44So let's start with hair.
00:46The Vrb Ghost Shampoo and Conditioner.
00:49I am a big fan of Vrb as a brand in general.
00:52They make really good products.
00:54I actually fell in love with their sea salt hair texturizing cream.
00:58So I was excited to try this line as well.
01:00It's super duper hydrating.
01:01It has moringa seed oil in it.
01:03It's sulfate free and safe for color treated hair.
01:07This week, my hair has been super duper soft, which I think is a combination of this shampoo
01:13and the mask I'm about to show you.
01:15Next up is this mask.
01:17It's from a brand called, I think, Jisoo.
01:20It's called the Honey Infused Hair Mask.
01:22I have been hearing about this mask for a while.
01:25My hair was so silky after this.
01:28I keep touching my hair and being like, huh?
01:31Is this my hair?
01:32It obviously has honey in it, which is quite hydrating.
01:35It has antioxidants and minerals and different vitamins in it too.
01:38Guys, it's so good.
01:39The next thing I'm going to talk to you about is cleanser.
01:43Now, this is the Elixir Skin Electro Gel Cleanser.
01:46I would say it's very good for anyone who has normal to dry skin.
01:50It smells like a really classy spa.
01:55Like I was using it and I was like, I felt like I was transported.
01:59It is luxuriously creamy.
02:01This is definitely, I don't think, when like remove your waterproof makeup or anything,
02:05but if you use it after like say a cleansing oil or use it in the morning when you don't
02:10really need a full like deep clean, it's going to leave your skin feeling really soft and supple.
02:14So after cleansing, I use a toner and I got the COSRX Original Clear Pads.
02:21These are targeted at acne that has willow bark extract in it.
02:24It's really nice for like gently exfoliating your skin.
02:27I use it like all over my face and then actually on my back and like down my chest too,
02:32like where I get occasional breakouts.
02:33I do find the scent a little bit.
02:36It smells like orange kind of because it has orange peel oil in it.
02:43Things like that I leave on my face, my moisturizers, my toners, I prefer them to be pretty neutral
02:48in scent.
02:49So I do think these are nice.
02:51They did not break me out, but the scent is just kind of strong.
02:54Then at night, I use this serum.
02:58It's from Peter Thomas Roth.
02:59It's their Retinol Fusion PM Serum.
03:02It's so liquidy look.
03:06It is hands down the most watery serum I've ever used, which honestly does make it a little
03:13bit difficult to apply, but it didn't irritate my skin at all.
03:17Retinol is a very great ingredient for everything from acne to wrinkles.
03:20This one actually also has vitamin C and E in it to brighten too, so it's pretty good.
03:25Next up is moisturizer, and I chose this one from Valje...
03:30Valjean?
03:31Jean Valjean?
03:33Valjean Labs.
03:35I don't know.
03:35And it's called Replenish Hyaluronic Acid Plus Marine Extracts Hydration Gel.
03:40It has a hyaluronic acid in it, which hydrates.
03:43I think that if you are very prone to oily, oily skin, you'll really like it.
03:47I personally wish that I had chosen something a little bit richer.
03:50In the morning when I was putting on makeup, it was fine, but I tend to use products that
03:55are a little bit more emollient, oils, richer creams.
03:58So this one did leave my skin feeling a little parched at night.
04:02To finish off my skincare routine is, of course, lip balm.
04:07Look at this cutie!
04:09This is from the Ojai brand.
04:11This is the Urban Outfitters new beauty line, and I love this lip balm.
04:17How to describe lip balm in a way that's interesting.
04:20It is rose scented for one.
04:22It is super cute and sleek, the packaging.
04:25And this is the kind of lip balm that just coats your lips, almost feels like a lip mask.
04:31It really soothes them.
04:32It has some oils in it to really hydrate.
04:34I really like it.
04:35I noticed that Ojai has a deodorant in the line.
04:38It is a natural deodorant.
04:40And it is also rose scented, and it has charcoal in it.
04:44Cutest little packaging.
04:46Doesn't leave residue on your armpits, doesn't transfer to your clothing.
04:50I wore it on one arm and didn't wear it on the other arm.
04:54And the arm that I did wear it smelled like nothing after I walked around in a cashmere sweater on
05:00a kind of warm day.
05:01And the other armpit stank a little bit.
05:03So it works.
05:05Moving right along to makeup.
05:06Now I got this fella.
05:08This is the Milk Makeup Blur Liquid.
05:10First off, the packaging.
05:12So sleek.
05:13It's nice.
05:13This is a, I would say, a medium coverage buildable foundation.
05:16It's a matte foundation.
05:18So I do think that it did catch a little bit on some of the drier areas around my nose.
05:22But it did have great coverage.
05:24Once my oils kind of seeped through the foundation a bit, it did look a lot better.
05:27After foundation, I used a blush.
05:29And I chose this one.
05:30It's from a brand called Tokyo Milk.
05:32And it's the blush and oil stick.
05:33And it is red, guys.
05:36This is a red blush.
05:37But it actually blends out really beautifully.
05:39And it becomes really natural, like, perky flush.
05:41So to set all my work, I use the Ohai setting powder.
05:45It's called the glass powder, which I think is a really cute name.
05:48Open it up.
05:48It has a mirror.
05:49And then there's the pressed powder underneath.
05:51I think it did a good job of setting makeup.
05:53I don't think that it controlled oil for, like, a ridiculously long time.
05:56But it's good.
05:57It's easy to throw into a bag.
05:58So next up, as a highlighter, I use this Ohai wake-up pen.
06:02It is essentially, like, dewy skin in a little click-up pen.
06:06It comes out like a liquid pearlescent highlighter.
06:10And it is just, like, beautiful to tap onto cheekbones, cupid's bow, the whole thing.
06:16It is $18, though, which I think is a little pricey for this.
06:19But it is really beautiful.
06:20And you can also use it under the eyes to brighten.
06:22So moving on to eyes.
06:23Now, this is the section from Ohai that I was the most excited to try.
06:28So the brand has two eyeshadow palettes.
06:32And one of them is kind of like metallic-y, warm, pinky purples.
06:38And the other one is my favorite.
06:41The Treasure Eye palette.
06:43And it has, like, kind of deeper, more burgundy.
06:45This beautiful bright pink, purples, golds.
06:48And these palettes are really lovely.
06:50I think that the cardboard packaging, I think they could have done plastic.
06:53But the actual shades in the palettes are really beautiful.
06:57I really appreciate that the brand did some palettes that are really fun.
07:00Like, I think that there are some pretty wearable shades in here.
07:03Like, they can do kind of like a bronzy smokey eye.
07:05But then you can throw some pops of color in there, like this purple and this pink.
07:08I just kind of mix and match with both of them throughout the week.
07:11I am actually wearing a kind of combination of these shadows on my eyes today.
07:15And I really, really enjoyed them.
07:17I kind of skipped eyeliner this week.
07:18I am wearing eyeliner right now.
07:20But throughout the week, I pretty much just used the palettes as my eye makeup.
07:22I actually dipped a wet brush into the deeper shades in the eyeshadow palettes to use as eyeliner.
07:29And then just top it off with mascara.
07:31This is called the Mini Mascara.
07:33It's so cute.
07:34Look at this little wand!
07:37It is the thinnest little brush.
07:39And I love this for my bottom eyelashes.
07:43I have very sparse, very short bottom eyelashes.
07:48So a brush this tiny really helps, like, get into every lash and really open my eyes up.
07:53It's so much easier than using a regular mascara that has a really big wand.
07:57True Matte Lip, which is a liquid lipstick from the Ojai brand.
08:00They have a couple of shades.
08:01I liked this one the most.
08:03It's called Self, and it's kind of like a rosy shade.
08:07It's really nice.
08:07I do think that they are a little bit on the drying side.
08:11I mean, it's a liquid lipstick.
08:13They usually are, like, a little more drying.
08:15These do last a very long time, though.
08:17So I would just recommend layering a little bit of lip balm underneath,
08:20and then you're good to go.
08:23Last but not least, a kind of strange product,
08:26but this is the Ojai Magic Hair Wand.
08:30It's essentially, like, a clear brow gel, but you can use on, like, any hair.
08:34So I obviously got my eyebrows micro-baited last week, so I haven't been able to use it as a
08:38brow gel,
08:39but as a frizz tamer, it's so good.
08:44This stuff brings them down, gets them in place, keeps them there, and doesn't feel crispy.
08:49It's dried now, and I'm touching my hair right now, and I don't feel anything.
08:53The underdog from this challenge really, really stole my heart.
08:57That's it!
08:58That was a lot of product.
08:59That was one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
09:02Wait, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
09:04Wait, one, two, three, four.
09:05That's a lot.
09:05I hope you stuck it out with me here.
