I was drawn into the Venus palette by the space theme and felt it made sense. It is super unique while being very wearable shades. I was unsure by the different textures and thought it was just for looks but those shades ended up shocking me in how much I loved them. You have a marbled look and different pan stamps. There is even a pressed glitter in his palette if that is your thing. The pressed glitter is the only shade that hasn't gotten a lot of love from me with my love/hate glitter relationship. The neutral shades are beautiful and when I use this palette it still feels unique from the other neutrals I own. This palette's formula is pretty unique too. I do really like it but I have to say it isn't my favorite either. It does a good job and wears beautifully but the shades you do have to build up. The darker shades don't give as much payoff as you might think they would. I feel like with this color story I need those darker shades to be darker but they still work. The metallics are beautiful! They're the type that takes over the show in your look. But they are different textures/formulas. Some are buttery and super pigmented while others are sheer but still put a shine on the look. I really appreciate the unique touches and the overall space theme. It's a palette I know I'll continue to love using.

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 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 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...
