nozhoemi 234 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Just picked mine up and here are my thoughts. Strap yourselves in this may be a long comment. First of all the shipping was incredibly fast, it shipped out of the USA on the 13th of September and I received it today (16th September) in Australia. 5/5 for the shipping! (DHL's service however... 0/5 ) I preordered the Haus of Metalhead and the Glam Attack duo in Downtown Punk (Chained Ballerina + Rose B*tch) Small disclaimer: I am not a beauty guru so these are just my own opinions! I am not that knowledgable of makeup formulations and how it all works. I guess I will say this is a review from an average non-influencer person haha There is a video at the end showing the products under a flash light. Packaging: The exterior box the products came in was just a normal black box. It is simple and minimalistic. I personally think it does match the aesthetic of HAUS LABS well. If I were to add something, it would be some metallic elements to the lettering since the Glam Attacks are very metallic. See the pic here: Spoiler Packing of the exterior cardboard: of the actual makeup products was very normal of beauty products. I liked how they were cardboard, hence recyclable. The silver lettering does stick out - I am not sure what the actual word for this is (it is not printed straight on) which is a nice touch. Pics below: Spoiler Packaging of the actual makeup: The products all have good weight to them. They do feel solid and relatively heavy for their size. This obviously excludes the lip liner which is a pencil hence will be quite light. The products all have a nice matte black finish which in my opinion make the product look more worthy than if they used a shiny finish. The lids of all the items were pointy which is cute. Pics: Spoiler Glam Attack Le Riot Lip Gloss RIP Lip Liner Now to the good stuff, the makeup swatches! Glam Attacks: I ordered 3 Glam Attacks in total. Biker (B), Chained Ballerina (CB) and Rose B*tch (RB). When I opened them I did smell them. There was a very very mild smell (very faint). Basically it smelt like makeup. When you pull the applicator out of the bottle it does leave some excess on the applicator so I just wiped it on the rim of the container. I do also recommend you give them a shake before using to disperse the glitters. Level of opacity I would rank CB > B > RB. I expected this anyways, since CB was the darkest shade and RB was the lightest. They were all pigmented and very glittery and metallic. When they dried it kinda felt like a mix of powder and dried paint? Maybe this is because when I swatched it I put the layer a bit too thick. They blend nicely too. Also they washed off very easily with water (I did not use setting spray). Pics: Spoiler Normal indoor lighting iPhone camera with flash My poor attempt at blending them. They do blend well but the product does shift a bit since its liquid. Onto the lip products RIP Lip Liner: Nice and creamy and the product gave a matte finish. It was nice and opaque too. I would recommend having exfoliated and moisturised lips before using them since they're matte. I do wish they made a lipstick as well because filling in your entire lip with a small pointy pencil is a bit tedious. The photos are above in the swatch. I didn't take any of it actually on my lips unfortunately. Le Riot Lip Gloss: The consistency is quite thick. Very glossy and shiny which is good. It doesn't really have a smell besides smelling like lip gloss. I do not usually wear lip gloss so I don't think I can comment much else. See pics above. Other: The makeup bag: It is quite nice and compact. Made of the flexible plastic. It is actually 2 layers with silver and black confetti in between. In my one it seems like a piece of red confetti fell in too See the pics below: Spoiler Front: Back: They also included this cute mirror which says "Battle for your life" on it. Pic: Spoiler i couldn't figure out how to take this photo without a reflection That is everything for the products. Unfortunately for my package, they seemed to have forgotten those 2 post cards people seem to have gotten with theirs. I did email customer service asking about it though. Bonus: Here is a video showcasing how glittery the makeup is http://youtube.com/watch?v=vviHEoLPkXE it was a perfect illusion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall, when you hold the lip gloss does it feel like it was from a luxury brand ? I would say it's more mid-high end makeup (for example, on the same level as Huda Beauty, Fenty). I would not say it is "luxury". Luxury to me feels like designer brands like Chanel or Gucci edit: of course this is subjective, depending on the person who is asked. it was a perfect illusion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illuminati 15,351 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I must say the lip liners were nice, very pigmented and creamy. But when I tried to wipe off their foundation my face started BURNING, after the painful removal, I saw that my entire face was left with chemical burns Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
