I found this By Mario lipstick in a red color that is called Kiana, which is my name. I liked the color and thought the name coincidence was fun. It is a nice vibrant color that is different than a lot of other reds out there and worth having. It is a nice formula.

Love this eyeshadow palette. Great colours for everyday use and for going day-night quickly. Very pigmented and easy to blend, but can have quite a bit of fall out when you use. The packaging also feels a bit cheap for the price of the palette.

I’ve been using this Makeup by Mario matte palette a lot lately and I get the hype. Every shade blends so smoothly and feels really forgiving, even when I’m moving fast. The colors are neutral but not boring, and I love that I can build them up or keep things super soft and natural. It’s one of those easy, no-thinking palettes that just works every time. Perfect for everyday makeup, clean looks, or when I want something polished without doing too much.

I own the Makeup by Mario Crystal Reflector and an eyeshadow palette, and I love them both. The Crystal Reflector looks beautiful on any eye look, alone or over any eye shadow and gives the prettiest icy shimmer. The palette has great everyday shades that can easily go from day to night. It’s pigmented, lasts all day, and while some people say it’s too matte, I think it’s perfect. It really depends on your skin texture.

I love how soft, sheer, and blendable this cream blush is. For being so easy to work with it does last a surprisingly long time on my face, even without powder on top. I like the Rose Crush shade for an all-over sheer wash that warms up my face similar to a "blonzer". It's a little pricey for me but it contains a lot of product for the price.

All I can say is WOW. If you’re looking for a bronzer that truly melts into your skin and gives it a glow, this is it. I never understood the meaning of having bronzer melt into your skin until this one. I got the medium shade and it’s perfect to give you a sun kiss warm look. The shimmer portion of the skin enhancer isn’t too glittery and the powders are finer so it doesn’t look like you have too much highlighter on it just gives the perfect amount for glow skin. Would highly recommend this if you’re looking for a product to warm up your look. It’s become an everyday must have for me!

I have several of the MAKEUP BY MARIO products and most recently got some lipstick and lip liner minis. I absolutely love travel size makeup because it's fun to try new colors. The minis are perfect for travel or to thrown in your bag for touchups.

I found this foundation to be easily spreadable and blendable. I use it for as spot treatment and it did cover what I needed to cover. It didn’t smell at all and the packaging looked elegant and expensive. Def worth a try.

I’m obsessed with Makeup by Mario! Everything I’ve tried has been amazing, especially the eyeshadows, brushes, and Soft Sculpt products. The eyeshadows blend beautifully, the brushes are super soft, and the sculpting products give the perfect finish. Can’t recommend this brand enough!
My most favorite cream stick blush of all time. The color options are fabulous and natural & they apply very easily!

I believe this is a solid brand. While pricey, MBM does live up to the hype on most products. I've tried multiple types of contour and I prefer to use their sculpting stick so much. It's smooth to apply, the shade I use leans cool so it is a legit contour not a bronzer, and while many ppl don't like the brush that's on the bottom of the stick, I think it's great. It's firm yet mighty. You may not like it and that's okay. There are plenty of ppl who don't. I just bought one of their lip liners and as a first impression, I like the color and again, the brush on the bottom. There is convenience in having a brush built into the product. I have try to try the palettes. I don't have a reason not to give it five stars. Based on my experience, I haven't been disappointed yet.
Kim K’s MUA decided that the world needed another makeup brand… No!

I really like how precise the shade range is. The foundation matches my skin tone perfectly, with undertones that feel thoughtfully curated. It’s ashy or orange look, which is such a relief! Another thing I love is how long-wearing it is. It holds up beautifully throughout the day, keeping my skin looking smooth and hydrated without settling into fine lines or emphasizing texture. If you’re looking for a foundation that gives you the perfect balance of coverage and a natural, skin-like finish, the Makeup by Mario SurrealSkin Foundation is a must-try. It’s truly a game-changer in my routine!
