Rare Beauty | Makeup

 


The gem that is Selena Gomez came out with a beautiful brand, Rare Beauty, all about empowering people to accept/acknowledge not only their inner beauty but their outer beauty. A lot of beauty brands have tried this type of direction but Rare Beauty does in a different yet unique way that is very authentic. I love their mission on recognizing the rare beauty within everyone. 

It's already a brand I can stand behind/support, but they also have to be some of the most beautiful products and packaging in the beauty world. I'm not done exploring this brand but wanted to share the gems I have tried with you. 



Stay Vulnerable Melting Blush - Nearly Neutral 


If my cream blush addiction wasn't in full swing I may have missed these beauties... Maybe not with how incredibly gorgeous they are! These melting blushes do just that! They melt into the skin as a cream blush but leave a finish of satin/powder product. I say that lightly because it doesn't go completely matte but I feel the look is rather blur like and more like a powder than any other cream blushes I have tried. It wears a lot like a powder blush too. Not in a bad way but maybe not as long as other cream blushes I have tried. I love the buildablity of the pigment with these and overall the finish. I would definitely buy more and I'm glad I didn't sleep on these. I'm intrigued by the liquid blushes from them still, but would probably get another one of these in the future but in a brighter shade to see if it makes a difference in the wear being a brighter pigment. 



Confident Energy Palette 


I really wasn't sure with these all metallic palettes... I need more mattes in my life and plus it's only 6 shades. I find these to be pretty affordable so that is a plus. I probably wouldn't have bought this myself and did receive it from Boxycharm to try. I have to say, I probably still wouldn't buy this. Don't get me wrong, I love the shades and the formula is stunning. The metallics are buttery and pack a punch of pigment. My major issue is my lack of use in smaller palettes. This one I feel I would personally use as singles with other palettes. The hard part is I rarely do that. Haha. But since I normally like to dip into mattes I feel it would be that or a single shade blown out look. If you love singles or amazing metallics and one of these 6 pans call out to you I would definitely try them! This is all just a personal preference in usage, but not the actual product formula itself. 



Swatches left to right: trust, Elevate, Strong, Gutsy, Will-Power, & Boost

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...
