Melt Cosmetics x Beetlejuice | Makeup

Melt Cosmetics x Beetlejuice | Makeup 

Being the huge Beetlejuice lover I am. How could I not be so excited for this?! These are actually my first palettes from Melt Cosmetics. A brand I have always wanted to try, but never have. I am pretty happy with this purchase for different reasons such as the color stories to the formula but I want to talk about both palettes in this post today. For the most part the formula has been consistent in both so I wanted to add here that they have super pigmented mattes. I have found them to blend well and work amazing with other shades. The metallics are pigmented as well and offer such a payoff that I'm always wowed with them. The rest I will leave below. 

The Waiting Room Palette 

Besides being a collectors buy I honestly told myself I didn't have a palette like this in my collection. Sure I could "shop my stash" and probably build a close palette to this, but I didn't have one put together already like this one. Plus the want to finally try Melt is what did it for me. I really don't have many of these in my collection though. I have found most of these to be so unique and although I love red I find myself barely reaching for it because it's usually not flattering on me. With this palette I have enjoyed wearing red. They chose the perfect undertones to make them work plus the berry tones help with that. Overall they're super flattering berries and reds in my opinion. I love the number of mattes and metallics in this one. I feel like there is more wiggle room with look options with this palette over the other too. This ended up being one that I think was not only a want purchase, but a good purchase in what I lack, but also what I'll use.

Recently Deceased Palette 

This one just looks like an "Ally purchase" to begin with, but these are also the shades I like to see with a Beetlejuice collection. Just like the other I find this one to be a good purchase (although I do have most of these purples over and over in my collection) as I will use this so much. Although a mixture of other shades would've been nice it is super satisfying to see all the greens and purples together in one. I have definitely used this palette more than the other. The consistency has been amazing beside the one dark purple shade that seems to work some days and others takes forever to blend. The looks I have achieved with it has me head over heels for both of these palettes.

Although I truly love both of these. I mean Melt killed it with this launch and getting Beetlejuice justice in a collab like so. But the hardest part I'm having is the cash grab of this launch. Now that I have fallen for this collection and wanted to share that love, these are no longer available which rubs me the wrong way since they're only a couple months old. A future restock would be nice and maybe they will around Halloween, but I hate low stock discontinued purchases so much. It makes it hard for me to use it and share it with you. I think it also keeps me from returning to the brand as well. Let me know what you think and if you picked up anything from this collection. XO

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...
