Nicola O.

‘Fantastic 💚’

With a mystery bundle you expect to have some things that aren’t your style but I’ve had 3 of these bundles now (a couple of doubles) but every time they are full of great products that I use everyday! Mitchell’s products are my new fav purchase! I only wish I could afford more 😂

Claire M.

‘AMAZING!!!’

I love everything I received in this mystery bag! It was worth every dollar. I love the versatility of each product. You are able to use them for multiple things. I managed to use the blursh as colour corrector, blush, eyeshadow and lipstick. They blend like a dream. I am contemplating purchasing another.

 ‘10/10’

I have ordered 3 of these within this year because it’s an amazing deal and always comes with a wide range of products and unreleased new makeup. I will buy these for as long as I can. So happy I haven’t got any doubles of any items.

TikTok trending and worth all the hype, this super-hold brow glue adds texture, fullness, and hold to your brows for a full 16 hours. Did we mention it even has a sweet bubble gum scent? 

‘The best brow glue ever!’

Review by Florian W. on 18 Jun 2023review stating The best brow glue ever !I tested a lot of different products but this one – the Honey Glue Original Superhold – is the absolute number one in Brow Glue. The definition and the hold are amazing. I am so in love with this product.

‘Makeup bag staple!’

Love this product so much. Onto my second tub now. Keeps brows in place without having to have them plastered to your face and super shiny. I do usually cover with a tinted gel just to be sure no white residue peeks through. But this usually is manageable through rinsing the spoolie off every week or so. Please bring back the bigger pots now!!

Amazing trio of gorgeous shades which glide on the eyes like buttercream frosting! They are so creamy and blendable, giving a really flattering finish that looks effortless – the glimmering metallic shade also pops so well on the lid or blends out as under brow highlight in a full-glam look!

Fiona D.

Calling all with oily skin types. This blurring balm smooths texture, reduces shine, balances oil levels, boosts your base products, and maintains skin hydration (despite its matte finish). It truly does it all. 

‘Revolutionary product’

As someone both extremely oily and with a preference for super light coverage, this product has absolutely changed the game. So much so that I’ve ordered another in #9. It applies smoothly and evenly with fingers and deposits light coverage. Keeps oils at bay almost for the entire day. Looks flawless on the skin. Can’t compliment it enough. My routine is now so much faster. I wear it on its own with extra foundation and finish with a light dusting of finishing powder and I’m good to go.

Ella.Fr

‘Best for oily skin’

This product keeps my oils in control and my pores are invisible. I bought the universal, shade 3 and shade 4 and 2 of the bushes. I’m very impressed! I will definitely repurchase 👍🏼

Denisa M.

‘Im in love!!!!’

This product melts so beautifully into my skin. It evens out my skin tone so it looks like my skin but better. This is great for an everyday look, or Iayering with another full coverage foundation.
