Dominique Cosmetics Celestial Thunder // Makeup Monday

Dominique Cosmetics Celestial Thunder // Makeup Monday



 Although this palette is not actually available on Dominique Cosmetics I wanted to still share it since it's the very first DC palette I have tried. I link her Celestial Storm palette above since it's the full-size palette from that launch... A baby Celestial Storm. You can check out my four looks with this palette, but I wanted to share the swatches and my overall thoughts of this formula. I'm still not completely sure if this palette is just like the others or not. I don't want to come off as hating this palette because I really don't. I struggled with shades for sure, but overall really like this palette. The mattes I find a little difficult to work with mainly so with Zero Gravity the charcoal grey shade. I used it in 3/4 looks in my video and had troubles each time. It reminded me a little of the Subculture fiasco. I find the mattes and metallics to both be pretty dry and think that is part of the issue. When using the warm tone mattes they weren't my favorite again, but it wasn't as bad as the grey. 
The metallics come off as crumbly and dry, but really do apply extremely beautiful! They, of course, were best applied with my finger but were just as good as many metallics in my collection. What I really liked about the metallics, although they are dry, they have unique looks to them. It's almost a duo-chrome effect. The black has pink shifts to it, the orange shifts red, and the off white is like a sheer layer of sparkles. 
This mini palette offers 5 mattes and 3 metallics, but the Celestial Storm palette has 6 mattes and 6 metallics. I had originally thought this was a separate palette from the Celestial Storm and just geared towards that same theme, but these shades are in fact in the actual Celestial Storm palette.  I think it is cool that Boxycharm included it, but I was more interested in the full palette with the added shades. You guys know how I am with my purples... Ha! 
The color story alone is gorgeous and her palettes spark my attention every single launch so I definitely want to invest in more of her palettes soon to compare the formula. 




Swatches left to right: Eternal Light, Fireball, Black Matter, Zero Gravity, Lucid Dream, Storm Dust, Lunar Eclipse, & Mystic Ice

Revlon ColorStay Skin Awaken 5-in-1 Concealer | Makeup

  Revlon Colorstay Skin Awaken 5-in-1 Concealer  Revlon has a new Colorstay concealer that I had to share for different reasons. I've been trying it out for the past few weeks and have my shades down and also the way I like to apply it! So I thought I would let you in on my secrets... My fair with neutral undertones skin has done best with the shade fair in the concealer although I'm super close to the shade, vanilla as well. My absolute favorite way of wearing this concealer formula is day-to-day by itself. It's that "your skin but better" look where I only use spot concealer under my eyes and where needed. It blends in without leaving weird patches but wears nicely in place. The only complaint here is the creasing I do experience with fine lines and creases that are on my skin. A little setting powder fixes that. I have tried the universal neutralizer and wasn't a fan. I'm sure it would be nice for most, but my fair skin doesn't mix well with the sha...

Good Molecules Cleansing Bar & Caffeine Energizing Hydrogel Eye Patches // Skincare

Good Molecules Cleansing Bar & Caffeine Energizing Hydrogel Eye Patches // Skincare I have plenty of skincare blogs coming your way, but I wanted to post again about Good Molecules and their products I've been loving.  I do have a video on these products, mainly so on the eye patches, but now that I have been using both of them for awhile I wanted to share my thoughts.  Caffeine Energizing Hydrogel Eye Patches I have always enjoyed any eye product. From eye masks like these to eye creams. They both make a huge difference in my skincare. I go through spells of little sleep and gradually see my under eye area get darker and darker. I'm also paranoid of getting eye wrinkles so I try to keep my eye area super hydrated and even throw in anti-aging in the mix once in awhile. What I can say is that I was not expecting what happened with these eye patches. Yes I'm used to hydration boosts with eye masks, but the difference you see immediately with th...
