Jeffree Star Cosmetics Magic Star // Makeup Monday

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Magic Star // Makeup Monday



Magic Star Concealer 

This was a launch I was not only excited about, but also so intrigued. We've had eyeshadow palettes, lip products, and different types of highlighters, but Jeffree's first base products?! He has hinted about a future foundation, which I would want to try out, but I can say this is nothing like his other products. I, unfortunately, am let down by this concealer. Jeffree raved it was lightweight, decent coverage, "a little goes a long way", great shade range, and non-creasing! So to break it down for you it is lightweight, so lightweight that it is a very thin consistency. I can say the coverage is decent for how lightweight and thin it is and the shade range, in my opinion, is really good. Usually, with concealers, I have one option. I bought shade C2 to find out it is too fair for me. That's not something I say a whole lot. haha! If I decide to repurchase this or for you to know I think C5 would work for me. I can't say from experience, but the deeper range looks decent. From there it's a little negative. While this bottle looks to have a decent amount of product it honestly doesn't. I don't want to get into numbers because I already did in my review video that you can check out, but it's not a whole lot. The wand is unique and different for a concealer, but I can dip into my shape tape once with enough product with this I can't. The last to touch on is the "non-creasing" claim and that is what I was most excited about. This, unfortunately, creases fast on me. I mean this is a have your powder ready, open, and what you need ready to go-to blend that concealer under your eyes and go straight into powder afterward. I stan Jeffree Star Cosmetics, but just can't with this product. I would love a reformulation of it, but in the meantime, I will use mine up. It's not the worst I've tried, but nothing that is holy grail. I did want to mention the beautiful packaging. He always gets me with that! 


Magic Star Setting Powder

 When choosing loose setting powders I tend to play it safe with my fair complexion and go with translucent.  Where the concealer was a little bit of a letdown for me the powder wasn't! I find it plays a little weird with this concealer which really throws me off since it's the same brand (and launch at that!), but that may just be me. When I used it with my other thicker concealers (Tarte Shape Tape, L'Oreal Infallible Full Wear, etc.) it made my skin so smooth and blurred it like no other! I was super impressed, but how it kept my makeup in place while making my skin look so nice. It's a very finely milled and super soft powder. Plus if you like light scents this one smells delicious and I've never thought that with a setting powder before! 
While I am very excited to see what he brings to the table next I do hope for a better outcome with future face products!

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...
