I misspoke when describing the Sonia G brushes. I said Chinese characters but I meant Japanese. My apologies!

[@roaroa5291]

It looks like "kanji", so you were technically correct. Those characters do come from Chinese. The Japanese adopted them and are using them alongside their own characters called hiragana and katakana. I have studied Japanese for a good few years of my life.

[@DeborahCarlston]

What a great job you did with those powders! Thank you for taking the time. I have that Chantecaille compact (beautiful) and was pleased you included it. Powders are necessary but can be really aging, so your comparisons were very helpful. If I need another blurring powder, you have really helped me narrow the search. Also, I am a packaging junkie, so that Precious Lipstick caught my eye. But these don't seem worth the major investment. Thanks for helping me get over FOMO. I really wish Cle de Peau made this formula in a lip balm. With the moisturizing/healing benefits, I could use it. In fact I'd love to have a balm to use Under lipstick. I love Sonia G brushes and have a lot. Looks like a beautiful launch. Thanks for the video!💚

Yes, I personally don't love the CdP lip balm that they came out with last year (with spf). It's okay but I would love to see a better version.

[@maureenturk8578]

Hi Lexi! I’m not a fan of heavy shimmer eyeshadows - I prefer the more subtle Cle’ de Peau shadows. Age related choice, I’m sure 😊. Just tried the CdP pressed powder and loved it - I use a brush too. I have tried the Sisley, Chanel and multiple Chantecaille setting powders - but prefer the CdP. Especially good under the eyes. I know it’s pricey. I’ve never tried Burberry cosmetics. I have two Precious CdP lipsticks and both are lovely - my favorite is pink. I do think it is very moisturizing and I have super dry lips. I’m able to use the CdP lipliner in Pink all over the lips - apply the lipstick on top - and it doesn’t dry me out. But lasting through meals? I don’t even try that. Thanks for such thorough swatches and choices.

[@LexiJong]

Thanks Maureen! I'm so glad you are loving the CdP!

[@eileen5428]

I’ve worn CdP powder for ages. I use the powder as a finishing powder and love how it evens things out and fades the demarcation lines between products such as foundation, blush, and highlighter. You’re right, Lexi, that it does take a few minutes for the powder to meld/melt into the skin, but when that happens, it’s like magic-at least on my skin. I also love that CdP is a company that (unlike some other companies) when they say something is refillable, it really is. Purchasing refills brings the price down so that it is more competitive with other luxury brands. I buy a case to begin with and then make additional purchases in refill form. That works for me because unless I’m traveling, my makeup lives in drawers. Now, as for that lipstick, yeah, I’ll have to give it a try. I’d rather have a few perfect lipsticks than a drawer full of mediocre ones that I just don’t enjoy wearing. So, we shall see . . 😊

[@LexiJong]

I am so glad you love them too! I also really appreciate how they actually have refills and they are available in the US. It's hard to narrow down lipsticks though, lol.

[@nidiadoherty5405]

Very thorough reviews, as always! I’m so tempted by the cle de peau lipstick, but since they are permanent, I hope I can catch them on sale. I really love both types of earrings you’re wearing and am kinda obsessed with the one that looks like a starburst sitting in a crescent moon.

[@LexiJong]

Thank you! Those earrings are from Etsy years ago but the seller doesn't seem to be on there anymore. It was selistejewellery.

[@Nathalie_Jackie]

Hi Lexi, I know how to work the CDP powder now. I used the Chantecaille buff and blur brush and just buff it into my skin. It’s a successful try!! I seem to have more luck with all the pressed powder when I used the buff and blur brush.

[@LexiJong]

I'm so glad that worked for you! I think it's a great brush too!

[@Nathalie_Jackie]

@@LexiJong I also ordered the Sonia G buffer pro and the Sonia G Sheer Buffer on their gift card event. I think the buffer brushes work better on me for the powder, better than the MK_SK for example.

[@bobabobaboba1303]

Thank you for another wonderful review. In regards to the spring suqqu moisture lipsticks, are they more moisturizing or the CDP? Which one do you prefer?

[@LexiJong]

I feel like the CdP are more moisturizing in the sense that they feel like you are just swiping your lips with hydration but there really isn't anything sealing it in. The Suqqu are maybe not quite as hydrating feeling but they have a bit more of a barrier so the feeling lasts a bit longer. In my head, it's like the CdP is pouring water on something (like a potted plant) but the Suqqu is like pouring less water on it but adding plastic wrap to the top to prevent hydration. I hope that helps but it might only make sense to me, lol. I really like both but I think the suqqu is the one I will use more. Aside from having a broader color range, it isn't quite as soft and I think the CdP will feel a little too "melty" during the hot summers. For the rest of the year though, they are pretty evenly tied in my book.

[@bobabobaboba1303]

Yes that makes sense and thank you for your detailed and quick response. @@LexiJong

[@loralee3232]

Lexi, very nice comparison of the various face powders. I really like the Sisley powder as a blur powder under foundation. I like the Chantecaille more like setting powder. I have not tried the Prada or new CDP. The CDP lipsticks look really nice and I love the shades you picked. A lot of them are sold out at dept stores.

How does the Sonia g brushes work on mattes. Etc. Regular shimmers metallics ? I see they silly the lighter palette you are using. #5 is the workhorse it seems. Does quit a bit #4 is a good brush for Crease transition. It lays it even I noticed

[@LexiJong]

They work very well on mattes. They seem to pick up more product than her other brushes. I think the dye gives them a bit more grip.

[@denisemarie6131]

Lexi. You have rephr slanted saibikoho maki brush? What do you think? I prefer the paddle one over the slanted one. How do I use it? It feels flimsy to me. I did email rephr.. no reply yet. Thank you for your opinion!!

[@LexiJong]

Yes, I actually prefer the slanted 3D shape. I think it gives a beautiful blush application in particular and because of the shape, you can control how much of the fibers are kissing your face as you swipe it on. It also works nicely for bronzer. You can flip it over for the flat side to use the edge for highlighter as well. This is one of my favorite brushes so I really hope you end up loving it! Some of my favorite brushes are ones that I didn't love initially but after using them and playing around with them more, I found them to be very special.

[@alya27092]

Hi Lexi, For powder I think I’ll stick with my favourite Sisley Phyto Poudre Compact. It’s very good for my dry skin and it looks great. Not cheap-$140 (Australia) but you get 12g compared with 5g Cle de Peau powder. The lipsticks look nice but they will disappear very fast every time you est/drink something, they will transfer to glasses, clothes, somebody cheeks 😁 etc. And the price in AUD will be like Hermes eyeshadows-$175. I think for a lipstick that you have to reapply 50 times per day is not worth it. At least the Hermes eyeshadows are gorgeous and stay on all day. I love Sonia G brushes and this set is beautiful. I will buy 2-3 brushes because is very expensive and I already have a lot of Sonia G eye brushes. In December I bought the Holiday set because it is made with squirrel hair and is gorgeous. Again very pricey for 4 tiny brushes:$380 (Australia) but I don’t regret. 😍 Thanks for sharing!🙂

Hi Lexi, the CDP powder is absolutely amazing and beautiful. I love it the best so far, more than the other powders I have. My question for you : is the WA powder in pink as nice? Is the WA powder in pink works better for the under eye area? Thanks

[@LexiJong]

I like the way better under the eye but the cdp better all over the face. But i have high hopes for the pmg Pink so maybe wait on that.

[@Nathalie_Jackie]

Hi Lexi, from this video, I really wanted the CDP precious lipsticks at whatever it costs. However, I was really dismayed when CDP sent all six shades to Jackelyn for her to review. If the lipsticks are that precious, why did they give her all six shades? So I deduce that the price they put on the lipsticks are overstated and not worth the money.

[@LexiJong]

That could be! I know she is on their PR list so they usually send her full or mostly full collections along with the other creators on their list. I think it's a good way for them to advertise and get around the photoshopped swatches that always go on the websites so people can see all of the shades. Personally, I think it's better to compare all the shades so you can see how they stack up against each other but I agree that it is an expensive PR package. All of their items are pretty pricey though so perhaps that is just how they decide to invest their marketing. I'm sure there is a heavy markup on all of the cosmetics.

I’m curious your thoughts about Sonja G brushes. I do not own any and I’ve purchased a lot of BK and ready for this year. I also got the beauty Lish purple dragon brush before you had reviewed it which I really like. With regards to this set versus, the fundamental set or the fusion set. I’d love your thoughts for a beginner into her brushes. They’re just very expensive and I can’t swing all of them. I recognize that you have an extensive collection and appear very knowledgeable, so your opinion especially on best for performance I would really value. Thanks.

[@LexiJong]

I think this would be a great video! In the meantime, I think it really depends what type of formulas you use mostly. The fusion brushes are awesome for creams and liquids but your BK Beauty can also cover that area. For powders, I definitely prefer the natural hair brushes in the other sets. I think you should skip the idea of a set since there is no cost benefit to purchasing all of them at once and just get specific brushes from each set. DM me on IG or send me an email and tell me what you already have and what types of products you like to use most and whether you are more into one-and-done looks or detailed applications. I will give you my thoughts as to what is great to start with based on what you have. I would definitely just start with a few key brushes and see how you like them first.

I'm sorry, but those CP lipsticks are not skincare--the ingredient deck is filled with synthetic chemicals (silicones) , plastics (polyethylene), dyes, heavy metals (several forms of aluminum), harmful preservative (BHT) and fragrance (which can host hundreds of other harmful chemicals that are not disclosed). So paying $110 to put poisonous chemicals on my lips is unacceptable, especially at that price point. In general, Japanese cosmetics are pretty to look at, but closer inspection will reveal cheap ingredients disguised by fancy descriptions/packaging.

Hi Lexi, I got the CDP powder yesterday and tried it today. The first attempt was a disaster even though I already layered skincare and sunscreen before applying the CDP The Foundation. I let the foundation sit for 10 minutes before applying the CDO powder with the Chikuhodo MK-SK. It came out so dry and patchy. So I used the beauty blender to try to blend it into the skin but it stuck to the sponge and came all out. So, I prep my skin again, then applied the CDP cushion foundation, then the Sisley Blur powder, then the CDP powder with the Chikuhodo FO-1, and it came out okay. After blush and highlight, I even used the Guerlain meorite powder as finishing powder and it did not take off anything underneath. But seeing you applying the CDP powder directly on top of your foundation without any patchy effect, I wonder what I did wrong. Is there any trick you can offer now that you have a chance to use this CDP powder for a month or two? Thanks

[@LexiJong]

How long are you waiting after applying your foundation? Maybe it's too wet so it's sticking to areas with more moisture? That's the only thing I can think of. I haven't really had any patchiness issues.

My Sonia G. small buffer brush has become dry. The hairs are somewhat straw-like. I have tried hair conditioner but it doesn't help.

Thank you for the blush & bronzer comparisons. The Gucci bronzer in 01 Fair is still my holy grail.

[@LexiJong]

Mine too!

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

So many new releases but so much sense and analysis from you! Thank you. You keep things sensible and salient.

[@LexiJong]

Thank you! I appreciate that!

[@cocodynamite9164]

You're gonna get me hooked on another jbeauty brand! 😁

[@LexiJong]

More coming! I wish they were more accessible here.

Hi Lexi, the Precious lipsticks look so delicious. They haven’t got to be on the CDP website for Canada yet. I’m holding off on purchasing any lipsticks at this moment to invest in the CDP precious lipsticks when they come to Canada.

[@LexiJong]

Nice choice! There are so many new lipsticks right now that my head is spinning!

[@Nathalie_Jackie]

@@LexiJong Yeah, I’m so tempted with the Dior lipsticks, the Suqqu moisture glaze lipsticks but I will save my money for the CDP precious lipsticks because you said they are really hydrating!!

[@EmilyRuss-tu1cr]

Thanks!

Thank you!!

Hi Lexi, I have an easy questions this time: between the Wesrman Atelier powder, Hermes powder and Cle de Peau powder, which one is most hydrating and radiant? Which one is more brightening? And to compare to our favourites Chantecaille the Holiday powder and Sisley compressed powder, is the CDP less hydrating or more? Many thanks

[@Nathalie_Jackie]

And do you know that the Burberry powder is sold out on Newman Marcus site? They are so hot!!

[@LexiJong]

Hydrating and radiant are different. CdP is more hydrating over time. WA might be more radiant & brightening because of the shades. I really think the Sisley and Chantecaille comparisons don't work because you use them a bit differently. I wouldn't really say any powder is hydrating but the CdP melts into the skin more over time.

[@Nathalie_Jackie]

@@LexiJong Thank you, Lexi. I was just afraid that the CDP powder would be dry from the look of it but now you say it’s melting into the skin then that took my concerns away! I will definitely try it. Just a quick update, I’m really pleased with the Sisley blur powder over foundation too!!

[@Nathalie_Jackie]

Hi Lexi, if I get the jit right, the CDP powder is not your favorite to the point that it will go into your midyear favorite, right?

[@LexiJong]

It's hard to say yet what will go in my mid-year favorites. I really like the CdP a lot so it could go in there.

[@Nathalie_Jackie]

@@LexiJong now I have difficult questions for you, sorry: between the CDP powder and the Westman Atelier powder, you like which one more? And you once said the Hermes powder is more or less same as the Westman Atelier powder, right ? And it seems that the Burberry powder is as nice as the CDP but drier, right?

[@LexiJong]

Those are tough questions and honestly, I'm not sure. I need to use the CdP more and see which i gravitate to after a long time.

[@kara6767]

Dear do you know the difference of the old version of cle de peau refining pressed powder to this new version?

[@LexiJong]

I'm sorry I didn't have the older version.

[@kara6767]

@@LexiJong do you find it more smoothing dear? Than the westman atelier powder or the charlotte tilbury?😊

[@LexiJong]

I think it looks better after a long day compared to both of those. It is more velvety looking. I would say it is smoother than the CT but the WA feels more like a pressed pigment so those are hard to compare.

[@kara6767]

Hi dear Lexi, i know/saw RMK on Asian webstites here as well, beautiful and looks beautiful on you!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩Still have so much eyeshadow, waiting for Suqqu, i prefer that. CDP, such a beautiful brand! We are quite behind with launches here in EU, that new cushion foundation, quare instead of round we still do not have here, the new eyeshadow quads, not anywhere here in EU, i purchased some eyeshadow quads in Asia last summer. Yes, Fude Japan is a very good company, Toshiya is a very kind person, shippping rates not crazy, package comes so quick, when i order something there! However, what i can order here, better, and better for planet. And still have quite some foundations and powders. This powder, i cannot find it anywhere, from CDP, well, in the USA, but CDP USA does not ship outside USA/Canada if i am correct. So, yes, when i really really want something, i shop it in Asia, but want to limit that, as i still have so much. Burberry i cannot shop from here, from The Netherlands, but i think the powders look both very beautiful on you!!! Bobbi Brown, a no. Sonia G. a maybe, i still swimm in brushes for a simple consumer, Lexi, but maybe, or maybe 1 or 2, they are beautiful! Goat brushes and horse brushes i still purchase, smaller animals i have more and more a problem with, but that's me. But do i dump my squirrel etc brushes in the North Sea, no, than these animals suffered for nothing, that's also waste, but focus on softest goat hair or synthetic made in Japan or from BK Beauty the most, since a few weeks. Loved the video, always so much info, really a Lexi video, i appreciate that so much, thank you, have a wonderful day!!!😘😘😘😘😘😘

[@LexiJong]

Thank you Annemarie! I agree with your philosophy on the brushes. I Hope you have a wonderful day and your puppy is doing well!

@@LexiJong thanks dear Lexi, yes, Kruimeltje ( Dutch for Little Crumble) is back at full strenght, yesterday we finished after months his Prednison, no guarantee that the meningitis stays away, it can come back, we have to calculate with that, is a realistic scenario, when that happens, the rest of his life probably Prednison, but we want to think positive, and positive, and positive, and pray as well that it stays away! Thanks, so kind of you Lexi! How is your puppy doing? ❤

I really hope the meningitis does not come back! Sadie is doing well. She loves the colder weather.
