Rebel Rouge Labs Prelude To Agony | Makeup

  Another hit from Rebel Rouge Labs . If you didn't know, I found this edgy beautiful Etsy-based brand and I'm literally in love. I have yet to try her other products but her eyeshadow formula is a 10/10 for me! I blogged about the  Howlin' For You  back a little way and I had my eye out for the next launch. This  Prelude To Agony  was yet again another holiday release I needed. The other was around Halloween time and in my opinion, it was the best Halloween launch of 2020. Fast forward to Valentine's Day and I was thinking "I wish some of these brands would be original and come out with more interesting things we usually don't see for v-day." Insert  Prelude To Agony . This palette is stunning! It has that Valentine's vibe to it with a twist. It has the beautiful reds and pinks you would expect, but the shades chosen with them make it overall a unique Valentine palette. From the bright yellow to the cool tone blues.

Hipdot Cenote Palette | Makeup

  Hipdot Cenote Palette | Makeup HipDot Cenote   I got this palette in my Boxycharm . I was liking the color story, but I wasn't so sure about how this palette would be. I had never tried a Hipdot palette and had heard mixed reviews. I've been eyeing their collab with Kesha for a while now, but the unsure feeling of "trying a new brand" crept up on me so I held off. While I find the mattes to be pretty pigmented and blend well when first applied they do seem to fade as you wear them. The metallics on the other hand, wear well and they're beautiful.. Well the formula I like. There seems to either be a inconsistency with the metallic formulas or there is two different formulas of metallics in this palette. One seems more glittery while being on the sheer side, while the other is full metallic pigment and thats the one I prefer. I think it's the same forumla and it's just the shimmer thrown in that dulls the pigment down. It's actually hard to explain,

The 5: Highlighters | Makeup

The 5: Highlighters | Makeup I've really been enjoying this series on my blog, but wanted to spice things up with a more exciting category like highlighters. I will have some other 'The 5' posts down below if you're interested, but these are just a fun way to speed run 5 reviews of one category of makeup. I know I have mentioned some of these brand highlighters in past blogs, but never in this series so I hope you enjoy!  *Fair skin disclaimer* I am rather fair so these shades are all suitable for mainly fair skin, but they would be blinding shades on deeper skin tones. Either way I hope mentioning the formula, pros, cons, etc. helps no matter your skin tone.  Ofra Cosmetics I know I have a whole blog on Ofra Cosmetics highlighters already, but they're up there in my list of top highlighters so I had to mention them again. I chose a shade I haven't posted about before as it is my newest shade to my collection. This is the Ofra x Madison Miller highlight in the
