Wander Beauty Getaway Eye and Face Pallette Review

Hye guys!! Today I am revewing the Wander Beauty Getaway Eye and Face Pallette. I absolutely love this pallette. I think it is great because you have all the things you need to almost do a full face, you have your bronzer.contour, blush, highlight and eyes all in one. I actually took this to the beach with me, and although I took multiples if you were low on space I think this would be great because you could take this and it would cover 4 products in one. I have been using this a decent bit, I think it is great for the spring/summer and am a big fan. It is $42 USD but I think that is an ok price being that you get all these things in one and they are all really good products, they are all buildable and lasts all day.  

Benefit Brow Microfilling Pen Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Benefit Brow Microfiling Pen. First of all this is really nice packaging, I really like how it looks. This has a very interesting tip, I am assuming it is to give a more natural look which this pen does. I feel like this fills my brows in more but doesnt really add anything extra if that makes sense. Like you aren't gonna be drawing them on with this but it helps thicken up what up already have. I really do like this but I can't decide if I like it more than using a pencil. I have been using it alot to test it so part of me is like yeah I really like this but part of me isnt sure. I feel like I might buy this again and switch bewteen this and a pencil depending on my mood. It is good though if you are only needing to fill in :)  

tarte Face Tape Review

Hey guys! Today I wanted to review the tarte face tape. I have heard alot about this before but had never personally tried it. I am loving it though, I see why it was/is so popular. This has really good coverage and is actually relativily thick but not like cakey. This covers my dark circles really well and also covers blemishes really well, I have personally been using it as concealer alot and it works really well like that as well as being a great coverage foundation. I am really liking this and will totally look into getting more of this in the full size.  

Scott Barnes Sculpting and Contour Pallette Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Scott Barnes Sculpting and Contour Pallette. First of all this is a really pretty pallette. I love the design, it is very simple but nice. I also love the variety of colors in here. I feel like it would work for a variety of skin tones (although it could have some darker option for sure). This is a really nice pallette, it is pretty pigmented and lasts all day. I feel like you can use this for contour or for bronzing if you want. I actually do use it quite a bit. That being said it is $58 USD so it is quite pricey, so this is a nice pallatte but not necessary. I really like it but had I not gotten it in one of my boxes I doubt I would buy just a contour pallette at that price.  

Complex Culture Sun Bath Baked Bronzer Review

Hey guys! Today I wanted to review the Complex Culture Sun Bath Bronzer. The packaging is gorgeous first of all. It is very simple but pretty. This color is great for my skintone, it is very warming for me but not too dark, I am able to build this up as a contour or use it lightly as a bronzer. I am a big fan of this, it goes on very well and is very blendable. It has really good pigmentation while also not going on tooo too dark. I am a big fan of this bronzer and will be using it all summer, I would totally recommend it.  

Alleyoop Multi-Tasker 4-in-1 Makeup Brush

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Alleyoop Multi Tasker 4-in-1 brush. I got this from Alltrue recently and hae been testing it out. So as far as how I feel abt it. It does work, you can technically do all your makeup with this one brush. That being said- in my personal opinion it does not replace the individual brushes/sponges. This works fine, but I feel like it is much easier to have my individual brushes and I feel like having specific ones works better as well. This works in a pinch if you really do not have the space to pack numerous brushes but I would not choose this over the ones I normally use. But if you are short on space it is a good product that works well :)  

Essance Blush Lighter Gradient Blush Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Essence Blush Lighter. I got this to test for a makeup video i was filming but decided to review it as well. First of all the color on the pallette is beautiful, I love the Pink to champagne gradiant. As far as wearablility this is pretty good for the price point. It is very glowy, I dont like it as a blush personally because it is just so bright with the shimmer but it makes a good highlighter. This is pretty pigmented and lasts all day with no issues. So as a blush, I am not super into this, it looks odd as a blush so if we are reviewing it as a blush, Id say I do not recommend it. If we review it as a highlighter however I think it is pretty good, to put it in perspective when I put it on today I forgot it was a blush and just used it as highlighter, so take that as you will abt the color/shimmer. It is a good product though overall.  

Artist Couture Love Sprung Pallette Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Love Sprung Artist Couture. I just recently got this after signing back up for Ipsy and I quite like it. This is extremely pigmented. You do NOT need much of this at all. I really like the 2 pinks in it, I have been primarily using Baby Bloom but they are both very pretty. The eternal flame is a bit dark for me but I can use it lightly as a highlighter or I can use it as an eyeshadow. This is a very nice blush pallette and I would totally recommend it, it stays put all day and looks great on the skin,  

NARS Deep Throat Blush Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the iconic Nars Deep Throat Blush. I got this in one of my subscribtion boxes, I believe fabfitfun this past time and I was super excited to try it. I grew up watching makeup gurus on youtube using this and other NARS products and I have always wanted to try them but they are just so expensive. This is a really pretty light pink color, it has really good pigmentation. It also lasts all day long without fading. I really like this, now would I buy it again- probably not, not because I dislike it but because I feel like there are cheaper ones I like just as much. That being said I am still very happy to have it in my collection and if you just wanna splurge for NARS then it is a really good blush!  

Nomad Sandbar Eyeshadow Pallette Review

Hey guys whats up? Today  I am reviewing the SandBar Nomad Eyeshadow Pallette. This is a very cute little pallette and I really like these colors for fall and winter looks. They have great pigmentation to them. They are all slightly shimmery but not so much you cant get away with blending out with them. They have decent staying power, I do get creasing after a while but I have never found any that DO NOT crease for me so I won't fault the shadows. This pallette is $26 USD from the website so not super expensive, Id say midrange. It is also  "CRUELTY FREE + VEGAN + PARABEN FREE + NON-TOXIC + GLUTEN FREE" according to their website. I have been using this alot recently and I would absolutely reccommend it :)  

Revlon Color Stay Skin Awaken 5-in-1 Concealer Review

Hey guys, today I am reviewing the Revlon Color Stay Skin Awaken 5 in 1 concealer. Since I have been looking alternatives to some of my fav products I decided to try this one as revlon has had pretty good stuff so far in my search. I am actually a pretty big fan of this, the sponge applicator is interesting, but other than that this is quite nice. This has pretty good medium to high coverage. It also actually does brighten under my eyes and make me look more awake. This also doesn't crease under my eyes or budge all day. I would totally recommend this and buy it again.  

Ciate London Translucent Setting Powder Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Ciate London Translucent Setting Poweder. I absolutley love this product. I am starting to really like loose setting powders and this one is really good. I love that it is transluscnet and it sets my makeup really well. I will get slightly oily on hot days but i can just put a little more on and its all good. I would definately look into buying the full size of this, it lasts ages even in the little sample so I feel like it would be worth it.

Kat Von D Go Big or Go Home Mascara Review

Hey guys!! Today I thought I would review the Kat Von D Go Big or Go Home Mascara. I actually got this from fabfitfun I believe but I didn't show it in my video because I totally missed it in my box. I am so glad I realized I had missed it though because this is a really good mascara. This is a very lengthing and volumizing mascara, it seperates my lashes really well and applies beautifully. I have been pretty much exclusivly using this since I got it because I just really love how it makes my lashes look, like just with a few coats you can see a significant difference between my natural lashes and with this mascara. I would definately buy this again because I think it might be one of my favorite mascaras I have used in a while.  

Maybelline Pumped Up Colossal Mascara Review

Hey guys! Today I decided to review the Maybelline Pumped Up Colossal Mascara. So if you have been around a while you will know that Maybelline has my favorite drug store mascaras. I am really liking this one. It creates very full fanned out lashes with a few coats and seems to stay put all day so no smudging. The only issue I have with it is the large brush because I have small features but I understand that is just so it CAN create that effect so I don't mind tooooo much. I just have to be careful not to get it on the lids. I would for sure use this again, I tend to alternate between different maybelline ones so I might not rebuy it right away but it will be in my line up.  

Essence What the Fake Mascara Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Essence What the Fake Mascara. Since this brand has such a good price point I actually got a few mascaras to try from them, this one I like but not as much as the previous one ( I Love Extreme Mascara). This one I would say is pretty decent for the price (abt $5 USD) but not my favorite for winter. I say that because I personally like to have a thicker longer fuller mascara in the winter, but a lighter more natural one in the summer.  This for me falls into the latter, it looks nice but is a little light for me in the winter for the look I want to have. The primer from essence helps but I would still probably not use this in the cooler seasons. That being said it applies great and I have no issues with the application or the wear of it, it goes on well and stays put. It also isn't to clumpy. So I would still for sure recommend it for the price, but if you are like me I would try it in the warmer months.  

Revolution X Soph Glow Pallette Review

Hey guys!! I am so excited about these Soph palettes! I absolutely did not need more highlighter but this one was so beautiful I couldn't say no. I have been using this just about daily and it is gorgeous.  This highlight goes on really nicely and blends into the skin really well. It stays put all day long and it really pops.  I would say a little bit goes a very long way so if you aren't into your highlight being intense this might not be your thing or you might have to be very light handed but for me I am loving it. I would say this is for sure a highlight to purchase, it isn't too badly priced and you get alot of product. And for the quality of this I would say you can't beat it. Also the packaging is so pretty! This is one of my favorite highlights at the moment for sure!  

Earth Harbor Sunshine Dew Antioxidant Cleansing Oil Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Earth Harbor Sunshine Dew Cleansing Oil. I was very excited that Earth Harbor was an option in my most recent Alltrue box because I love the Marina serum and I was hoping everything else would be just as great. I can say this definately met my expectations. I wasn't sure how I would feel about an oil makeup remover but I am actually really loving it. I use 3 drops on my face and it takes off all my makeup with just that and a tiny amount of water. I even tested it on eyeliner, did amazing. Dark Lipstick, did great. And even lash glue, with just one more drop it came right off. I love that I don't have to scrub hard with this, just gentle rubbing takes the makeup straight off and leaves my skin feeling clean and soft after a rinse. I think I just might have to get this again when I run out, although it will be a minute because these bottles of product last forever which is amazing. I would 100% recommend this, it is an excellent product and I ...

Essence Volume Booster Lash Primer Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Essence Volume Booster Lash Primer. Now I have never used a lash primer so this is coming from someone with no experience with one prior just so you guys know. However that being said I personally quite like this, I feel like it really does make a difference in how the mascara looks when I use this first. When I start with this it makes my lashed look much longer and fuller that if I use just the mascara. Now I won't say this helps the mascara stay on any better because I haven't tried it with any I have any issues with but I think it probably would help. My only issue with it is that it is white so sometimes a little doesn't get covered well enough but that really is my only  issue I have had, other than that I love it. I will for sure be buying this again because it is very inexpensive and really works!  

ELF Poreless Face Primer Review

Hey guys! Today I thought I would review the ELF Poreless Face Primer. I have heard some pretty good things about this so I wanted to try it myself. If you are not aware ELF has some amazing prices for drugstore makeup and alot of their items are pretty good, this is one I had never tried so when I ran out of primer I decided to see how this one was. As you can see from the title this is their poreless primer, what I want from my primer is a kinda perfect skin kinda look under my makeup. This applies really really nicely, it isn't sticky or oily it is just super smooth and blends really nicely. My makeup goes on super smooth over this and it helps it stay put all day. I actually really like this and would rate it up there with some of the more expensive ones if I'm being honest. I might make this my main primer from now on.  

Essence I Love Extreme Mascara Review

Hey guys!! Today I thought I would review the Essence I Love Extreme Mascara. Now if you have been around long you might know as far as drug store mascaras go I usually stick to Maybeline. However I saw this brand in my local CVS and they were half the price so I decided to give them a go. I have to say I am actually pretty impressed with this. It makes my lashes quite long with a few coats and makes them look fuller as well.  Now I will say it gets a bit clumpy, so if that is something that bothers you, I just wanted to mention it, but for me I don't mind too much. This also lasts quite well throughout the day, I haven't had any issues with it transferring onto my lower lash line or anything. Overall I actually think this is a great drug store mascara option for the price point (like $5 USD). I will definitely buy again!
