Morphe x Jaclyn Hill Vol. 2 // Makeup

Morphe x Jaclyn Hill Vol. 2 // Makeup



Another Morphe x Jaclyn Hill palette to start the hype...and the drama...
I thought what could go wrong with a full size (non "vault") palette with the promise of the original formula? I don't think it is that easy for Jaclyn anymore. Although I feel like the heat should've been given more to Morphe for adding ingredients that weren't in the first palette to "improve" the already amazing formula... Jaclyn I feel should've been more involved with it especially with how her last few launches have gone. With that being said I did mention in my First Impressions that I didn't really see this being the exact formula anyways. There are so much more vibrant shades in Vol. 2 and the fact that most are pressed pigments. I did enjoy playing with this palette. I still wanted that OG formula especially with the neutrals and because of that Vol. 1 will always be my favorite. This is a fun color story that I really thought caught the eye and while it still does I find myself wishing there were fewer burgundy shades with her going a more vibrant direction, but this is Jaclyn Hill the queen of warm tones and burgundy. I created some fun looks in my 4 Looks 1 Palette with this and didn't really struggle with the looks. I have heard of others being upset with the shades being patchy. I only noticed it once so far and was able to blend it out. Pressed pigments can be tricky to work with, layer, and blend. You just have to have the patience to blend blend blend. 
24 of the shades in this palette are mattes which was a bonus for me! I love having more mattes in a colorful palette. The remaining 11 shades are mainly metallics besides one more glittery layer shade and one that pulls more duo-chrome. I find the metallics to be beautiful, but definitely not as amazing as the OG palette. What did you think of Vol. 2? XO

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...
