Hipdot Cenote Palette | Makeup

 Hipdot Cenote Palette | Makeup



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, but thankfully it is only like two shades in the whole palette. You have 6 mattes and 9 metallics that balance this palette very well. This has been a harder one to try out because I have mixed feelings each time, but from the point of view when my look turns out bomb I think I would try another of theirs. I feel it also may be my comfort zone with this palette color story that keeps me second guessing. What are your thoughts on this one? 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...
