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.

Shroud Cosmetics x BattyBean Hallobean Palette | Makeup

Where to begin with this palette? Could it be the best of this season? Possibly so! This second round of Shroud Cosmetics x BattyBean is everything I could dream up for a fall palette. Sure, I love the past Its Freakin' Bats palette. It is still a favorite with its spooky vibes. What the Hallobean Palette gives is not only a spooky vibe but a fall lovers' essentials in the shade range. With 5 mattes and 4 metallics, you have a good balance in formulas that are some of the best. The mattes are pigmented but are some of the easiest shadows to blend out. The metallics are a buttery dream with the prettiest payoff. These stunning shades that are named after such iconic Halloween movies/characters are everything and new favorites.   BattyBean did an incredible job on another gorgeous color story and Shroud really does deserve all the love/hype they are getting! xx Shades left to right: Ghastly, Afterlife, Crypt, Woodsboro, It's Showtime, Black Flame, Losers Club, Ghoulish...

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review You may have seen that I received this Doucce palette in my FabFitFun Winter Box . I have actually tried one of their single pans of eyeshadow from a subscription in the past and I did like it and thought it was super pigmented! First of all, I love how compact and cool this freematic palette is. There is small magnets on the back of each shade and the inside of the actual palette is a magnetic board like a Z-Palette. Then I want to mention how I do really like the color layout of this. It is a pretty neutral layout and has shades that everyone has, but the undertone of these are just so different to me. In a good way for sure! They do have other palette options on their website, along with a "build your own palette" option. I will eventually review the highlight (also a bonus!) that came with this, but I want to talk mainly about the 8 eyeshadows. They're just like the single one I received and is very pigm...

Amethyst | Gemstone Series

 Amethyst | Gemstone Series  Today is Amethyst. I have to say I started this look a little late in the day and was rushing the beautiful golden hour to get this makeup on and get decent pictures before the sunset.  *If this is the first gemstone look you have seen the others will be linked below, but the idea is creating looks based on gemstones every week and the challenge (not really) using the ColourPop So Jaded palette to create the eye look.  ✖️Brows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Gel (Blonde) ✖️Eyes: Mac Cosmetics Paint Pot (Painterly) ColourPop So Jaded Palette (Ametrine, Flourite, & Amethyst) Tarte Cosmetics Big Ego Mascara I started the look with the Ametrine shade right above my crease and blended it out with a blending brush. Then I took the Flourite shade on my inner corner and brow bone as my highlight.  Then, of course, the Amethyst shade in the palette. I patted it on the lid space with my finger before blending it in my actual ...
