Medusa's Make-Up December 2020 "Ho Ho Ho" Review
1 of 2
Along with my beauty items, I received an info card that details what items are in the box. This month included a cute holiday message.

Glitter Angle Eyeliner Brush – Retail Value $6.00
While this item is listed on Medusa's Makeup site as a 2 brush set, we only received the eyeliner brush. This brush is stated to be used with all powder products, as well as any liquid and/or cream products.
Instead of using it as an eyeliner brush, because I haven't yet mastered that skill, I used this brush to apply the Mineral Eye Dust (which will also be reviewed) on my eyes. The bristles were very soft and the shadow stuck to the brush for a nice application.

Medusa's Mineral Eye Dust- Dirty, 1.5 g – Retail Value $9.00
And since I've introduced this eye dust in the above review, let's dive right into this sassy shadow! The dust, a shimmery violet in color, is a pretty dense dust. It didn't shake out of the container as easily as I thought it would (which is good because I ALWAYS make a mess), so I had to shake a few times pretty hard before anything came out.
This color gives me deep violet starry night vibes!

I thought it might be a dust that could only be worn on a night out because of how pigmented it seemed, but I wore this out on a day of errands and didn't feel too made up!

Medusa's Makeup Eyeliner Seal, .67 fl oz – Retail Value $9.00
Before I knew of eyeliner seals, I would dip my eyeshadow brush in my eye dust and then put it in water to create a paint-like look. This seal makes that look a lot easier to achieve than running sink water on your brush.
I experimented with the mineral eye dust from this month's box. The top is a natural smudge. The bottom is the dust with the eyeliner seal over it. You can see that the seal makes the pigment a deeper metallic color, really allowing you versatility with your eye makeup!

Vegan Lipstick -Baroque, 3.5 g – Retail Value $14.00
One of my favorite products from Medusa's Makeup is their lipsticks. The creamy formula leaves my lips feeling moisturized, while still retaining my color all day.

I'm loving this deep fuchsia color! The pigment is rich enough that you can wear it in the winter months, but also the color "pops" enough that you can rock it in the Spring and Summer! And again, very moisturizing.

Halo Glow- Astro –Retail Value $16.00
This item was the *New Product Alert* of this month's box. I love highlighter sticks, and this one does not disappoint. It's in this groovy supernatural green and adds a nice "outer-space" glow to your face.
Verdict: Another winner from Medusa's Makeup...I'm obsessed! All the items were great but the halo glow stick was my favorite. The green iridescent hue makes it a total knockout for me! All products were very on par with the holiday theme 🙂 I received $54 worth of items.
