Tarte [Make Believe in Yourself] Palette Review





I'm so excited to finally be getting this blog done! I enjoy doing review on eye palettes so much and plan to have a lot more coming! 
Eyeshadow is one of my favorite pieces of makeup and I usually fall in love with every palette I see, but I tend to usually buy only the ones I really see myself wearing. Or, if a couple shades really stick out to me I will buy them too. Although buying this palette was something out of my comfort zone on colors, I still wanted to check it out Plus, it was on sale! I've had so much fun experimenting with these colors and I'm really looking forward to reviewing more, because this really has gotten me out of my comfort zone and has made me want to try new things! 

Now into this review. If you didn't know already, this is the Tarte Make Believe in Yourself  Palette. First of all, is this palette beautiful or what?! These shades can sometimes be so intimidating to use (especially when the formulas don't blend well), but I didn't have too many issues. Of course I like to use a variety of different shadows and palettes for the same look, but I wanted to create looks using each shade from this palette. I tried to use at least two of them with each look (plus some others that you can check out in the tutorials I'll have posted soon enough) and they all turned out beautifully. I like more matte colors (this palette only has one matte) in my eye looks, but that wasn't the case with these looks. Get ready for some tutorials with a lot of shimmer. These are so pigmented and creamy and this palette smells so good! It's one of those scents that is hard to explain, but it smells heavenly. I can usually even smell them while I'm wearing them. I know some might not like that, but you should really smell this! It kind of smells like a Mac lipstick, but it's just a little stronger. I've heard some complain about Tarte shadows "not lasting" or the shades actually "fade" and make it look like just gray all over your eyes. Thankfully that isn't the case for me. I have more palettes from them and I've never had that problem. I do really love the smell, formula, and overall quality these shadows have. This is a $40 palette, but I believe it is $30 until they sell out completely since this is a limited edition line! I personally think that is a steal for a palette of this quality and the fact that it is limited edition! These bright colors are fun to play with and if you are trying to get more colorful and creative with your make, I say go for it!

I give this palette a 8/10
*Great pigment and formula
**beautiful highlight shade
***Bright colors that stand out
****Good cute packaging

-I wish there were extra matte shades in this palette. 
-The downfall of it being a limited edition item.

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...

July Monthly Beauty Favorites

  July Monthly Beauty Favorites  I've been keeping my fingernails pretty naturally and trying to get them more healthier and longer looking, but I got this Kokie nail polish in an Ipsy bag a couple months ago and I've been using it a lot this summer on my toes. It's a really pretty periwinkle color. This is in the shade Heavenly. I actually bought this awhile back and used it (at least the body mist, as you can tell) so much. I've recently started using them again and have fallen in love with the scent once again. It's a mixture of vanilla and coconut. Those are my favorites!   FACE: For face care, I've still been using this  tarte Rainforest of the Sea Deep Dive Gel Cleanser . I absolutely  love this stuff! This is a "must have" and "holy grail" for me! It has helped my face problems (I still have some issues of course, but it's improved since using this religiously) so much and doesn't dry my skin out too much a...

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018  You may already know, but I moved all of my subscriptions to my beauty channel: AllyBrianne   You can check out my unboxings there of all of my monthly and seasonal subscriptions.  The reason I'm posting this blog today is because I just got this months Ricky's Cult Crushes in the mail last week. I planned on filming a quick unboxing to post Sunday, but my weekend got away from me so here we are. This is only my second month receiving this subscription. I'm up in the air about it honestly. Last months ( Ricky's Cult Crushes // April 2018 ) was a good box, but sadly the pans in the eyeshadow palette kept falling out! You can see all that business in the video! I was disappointed because the shadows were great.. The packaging not so much.  If you don't know what  Ricky's Cult Crushes is... It is a $11 (now $14, I'll explain) monthly subscription that has mainly beauty items. This is a subscription throug...
