Then I Met You Cleansing Balm Review: Is It Worth It?

“The product is luxurious and feels great on the skin. It removes makeup easily, even if I’m wearing waterproof or sweat-proof products. The price tag isn’t high, so it doesn’t feel like a luxury item but is relatively affordable for anyone who wants their face clean and glowing every day without feeling greasy.

It can happen with some fancy lotions that others might think are worth spending more money on because they have a fantastic fragrance attached (that lasts longer). My friend recommended this brand before now.” She admits she convinced her Plastique Tiara & Naomi Smalls to try the product.

“The first time I burned this candle, it was so strong and fragrant that wherever you put the stick down. Even if it’s in your living room or bathroom, light up one of these bad boys if something smells bad. It’ll be like being surrounded by flowers all day long. Closes eyes and imagines herself underneath an esports field, whole pink unicorn beings tickling noses with their magic Minions. That’s what it’s like when I burn them.”

“Since birth, I’ve been eating it when my mom started feeding us this dish at home after her long work hours. The spiciness hit me between the eyes as a child but now. It’s just part of what makes you comfortable and at home and at the moment.”

“You’ll know about it when I find extraordinary, chic pieces of clothing or furniture on TikTok, and they’re from brands available in stores (not just eCommerce sites). There’s this one air plant dealer who has a fantastic selection. They can only keep live plants like these because everything else dies within days/weeks after purchase.”

“The palette has every shade I need for a full face of makeup. The green-hued “I’m not yolking bitch” is my favorite because it’s realistic and loose at the same time, which makes doing everything else easy peasy! Naomi inspires me with her precision skills in designing looks while also being one of my best friends to do anything together (we’re always messing around). This collaboration was meant from day 1–her style compliments mine perfectly.”

“My favorite thing to do before a show is to listen to some music and get pumped up. The Wonderboom speaker has been such an incredible asset for this purpose. It’s light enough to take it with you anywhere, sturdy enough not to break easily in transporting from place to place (even if packed into the luggage). Its solid bass enclosure design also sounds incredible and delivers clear highs.”
