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.

Beauty Tuesday

For my first " Beauty Tuesday", I thought I would start it off with my May Ipsy bag. If you're not familiar with Ipsy, it's a monthly subscription bag with 4-5 full and/or sample size beauty products. This June marks two years that I've received a bag. Even though some bags are hit or miss, I've continued to be subscribed so I can try out new items. I feel like Ipsy has really upped their game this year and I've loved every bag I've gotten. I'll be sharing my bag with you every month with my own personal review of the bag itself, and each product in it. I'll also blog about how certain makeup wears, feels, and my own opinion of the product. The same for skincare products, and how they work with my skin type.  I hope you enjoy my May 2017 Glam Bag (If you're interested in subscribing to Ipsy's monthly Glam Bag, I'll post the link down below). I'm more into Ipsy for the actual products and not the bags, but I'll admit the ba

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

August Ipsy Glam Bag

If you're not familiar with Ipsy, it's a monthly subscription bag with 4-5 full and/or sample sized beauty products. I've been getting one for two and an half  years  now. Even though some bags are hit or miss, I've continued to be subscribed so I can try out new items. I feel like Ipsy has really upped their game this year and I've loved every bag I've gotten. I'll be sharing my bag with you every month with my own personal review of the bag itself, and each product in it.

I don't know what took so long this month whether it was Ipsy or just USP
