Kylie Cosmetics x Balmain // Makeup Monday

Kylie Cosmetics x Balmain // Makeup Monday 



This collection was one I was drawn to because I knew how much I would love it in the spring. It's simple with a little color and that's what I love in 9 pan palettes. They're perfect for everyday wear and for that they're super handy and probably my most used palettes. I also love how some of the mattes and metallics in this palette complement each other for beautiful monochromatic looks. 
I did four looks with this palette in a video and you can really tell I've been loving those monochromatic looks too! I'm also usually drawn in by purple shadows, but the layout and everything about this palette just spoke to me. I'm shocked at how many weren't interested in it, but at the same time, I understand completely considering she launched it in October. For one, I was waiting and expecting another amazing Halloween launch from her which didn't happen and for two, these are obviously spring tones that probably won't do great in the fall. With Paris fashion week I guess there was no getting around it, but I'm so happy to be getting this blog up now because this palette is now back in stock and spring is just around the corner! I also wanted to mention it, even though it's repetitive, this is a review so it should be said. This formula is like any other Kylie formula and I enjoyed both mattes and metallics. There are more metallics (5 metallics) in this one than mattes (2 mattes) and there is also another pressed glitter (just 1) in this palette. The pressed glitter is like ones before. Although it may seem crumbly pressed on with your finger it packs right on the lid and wears great! She has one of the best pressed glitter formulas I have ever tried! 


Swatches top to bottom: PFW, Catwalk, Top Model, Night Out, City of Love, Main Event, Attitude, Model Type, & Close the Show
Paris Lip Kit & High Gloss (Model Behavior) 

While I want to mention these because I've really enjoyed them. It looks like they're no longer available on her website which is irritating since it has only been a few months. The lip kit isn't my favorite. It looks stunning on Kylie, but I find the pink to be unflattering paired with the brown liner on myself. I'm honestly not the biggest fan of the pink liquid lipstick in general, but oh my God that brown liner is my new BFF. I seriously wore it for days after trying it, ordered more brown lip products, and I'm devastated that it is no longer on her site. The shade/tone of it is perfect and I'm so bummed that it may never be back. 
The High Gloss is the first of that formula from her that I have tried and I love it! The shade is clear with specks of (not too chunky) glitter that you can see in the swatched photo of it. It is so beautiful and it was my most used gloss since getting this collection. It's not my top favorite in shade, but I definitely want more of her High Gloss now.

Tarte [Make Believe in Yourself] Mystical Dreamy Blues Tutorial

 Tarte [Make Believe in Yourself] Mystical Dreamy Blues Tutorial  I recently did a review the Tarte Make Believe in Yourself   eyeshadow palette. In that review I shared some looks that I created with it and will be sharing each of those tutorials with you. First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. I started this look by prepping my skin with First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. I used this because my skin was so dry! I followed that up with Physicians Formula Primer Argan Wear (with coconut and argan oil). I used that as my primer today.  I also used some color corrector concealer from the brand Aurora in the shade Pistachio. This is a new favorite of mine! I love how well it covers up any redness or blemishes. This was mentioned in my last Ipsy blog (I'll link below).  Physicians Formula Primer Argan Wear Aurora Pro Color Corrector (Pistachio).  EOS lip balm I moisturized my lips with some  EOS lip balm and ...

Makeup Monday // JSC Jawbreaker + Mini Breaker

Makeup Monday // JSC Jawbreaker + Mini Breaker I wasn't sure if I'd bring palettes back to my blog or not since they're discussed so much on my channel , but for sake of a pretty photo-op moment, I'm doing this. Ha!  I'm usually over the moon for every Jeffree Star Cosmetics launch and this one wasn't any different. I feel like only Jeffree could make a palette this full of insane colors and get away with it. With that being said when opening the Jawbreaker palette I can honestly say I did feel a little overwhelmed which is weird because I'm not one to shy away from color. I think it can still be challenging finding the right shades to put together to complement each other, but I can say once you dip into the shades that feeling goes away quickly. It's not as intimidating as you think it is. I created four colorful while still bring wearable looks with the Jawbreaker and had fun each day picking the palette up. I love being excited to do ...

Skincare Reviews // Coola, Vasanti, Clinique, Avatara, & I Dew Care

Skincare Reviews // Coola, Vasanti, Clinique, Avatara, & I Dew Care Coola Sport White Tea Moisturizer SPF 50   $32 I took this gem with me on vacation and it did amazing! With an SPF 50 I didn’t have to worry about getting my face burnt. Who wants dry, red, and peeling skin when you have videos to film and blogs to get done? Not me! I took my skincare very seriously and this item made it super easy! Although, this has SPF is was just a moisturizer. It also felt just like a moisturizer, not oily, greasy, or film-like at all! It sank right into my skin and kept me protected. I can also say this worked with my sensitive skin well and didn't break me out at all! If you're fair, burn easily, and have sensitive skin I really recommend this product. Even if you don't, I recommend this as a great SPF moisturizer that everyone could benefit from.  Vasanti Brighten Up! Enzymatic Face Rejuvenator $29 I tried this product sometime last yea...
