Violet Voss Essentials 2 Palette | Makeup

Violet Voss Essentials 2 Palette | Makeup


It happened! If you seen my blog on Violet Voss Essentials palette then you know I had plans of getting this one already, but I actually got this one in a Boxycharm too like the first one! I fell in love with the first one. The color story was cute and the formula was amazing! I can say so far with this one I haven't loved it as much as the first, but I'm still pretty happy with it. From the packaging I guess I was hoping for more. I mean all these shades are beautiful, but I could do with less of the neutrals in these smaller palettes especially when the cover is really vibing with the pink, purple, and blue moments. It could have been much more into that category besides just 4 shades. There is even a rose gold, while it is gorgeous, it doesn't go with this palette theme to me. I have a harder time thinking of looks with this one and you would know from past times I get frustrated when I feel that way. The actual pink, purple, and blue moments are beautiful! The formula on the other hand seems the same to me and I enjoy it. The mattes are easy to blend and the metallics give a beautiful shine. They aren't my all time favorites, but still I feel these are slept on for how good they are. The metallics have some different consistencies. A couple of them are nice ones that have a lot of pigment like regular metallic shades. The formula isn't dry, but isn't the most buttery either. The payoff is still there. A couple others are a light iridescent moment that doesn't offer as much pigment, but nonetheless still gorgeous, and finally the other metallics are "barely there" moments that offer a color, but can be applied light or built up. I don't have a lot of shadows like that in my collection so I really enjoy those. Again I prefer the first one better, but these are cute little palettes. This one has 4 mattes and 6 others that are the different metallics. I can say these don't swatch amazingly (I still wanted to show the shades swatched), but perform much better on the actual eyes with brushes! Have you tried Violet Voss shadows? xo


Swatches left to right: Beige, Clay, Rose Gold, Chocolate Brown, Bronze, Wild Orchid, Blue Violet, Aqua, Blue Sky, & Copper.

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...

Skincare & Makeup Haul

Skincare & Makeup Haul I've never done a "haul" on my blog before, but I thought it would be a cool idea plus it would be a sneak peak of things that I'll be trying out for future reviews.  Skincare: I have been loving trying out new skincare items and although my skincare bin is a little full at the moment there was a few things I was running low on and a few things that I couldn't pass on!  I was running low on both makeup removing wipes and micellar water, so I picked these up at Target. I often use a moisturizer from the Simple brand, but I've never tried their wipes or micellar water before. It's cheaper in the long run buying the two pack of wipes, but I do hope these work good!  My nose has once again started getting clogged with blackheads. I've been trying out a few different foundations and wearing makeup just about everyday and my skin just isn't use to that. After taking a two week break from makeup a...
