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.
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.
