Hmm ok... NEW Rare Beauty
Rare Beauty$30.00- “There isn't a lot of kickback when I dip my brush in, which I always appreciate seeing”▶ 3:12
- “Seems relatively easy to blend”▶ 5:11
- “Does feel quite soft on the skin”▶ 5:34
- “This eyeshadow formula is going to be really good for those of you who tend to go in with a heavy hand”▶ 6:10
- “If you want to build up pigment really really fast, you might need to work a little bit harder to build up this pigment a little bit”▶ 6:46
- “I'm a little bit more amenable to shadows that need to be built up a little bit more than something that you need to be really really careful and precise with”▶ 7:05
- “That is quite nice. I like that. It's very soft”▶ 15:53
- “It's sort of like somewhere between, it's like a soft metallic, you know? It's not too, it doesn't have that thick pearl in it”▶ 15:56
- “It actually applies with the brush quite nicely”▶ 16:22
- “Any fallout? No, not really”
- “That's metallic. I like that. That's beautiful. Look at how much it opens up that inner corner”▶ 18:41
- “I think the formulas are nice overall”
- “I do think that the matte formulas are nice. I think they're blendable and easy to use”▶ 35:22
- “There's enough pigment there that they'll work for a multitude of skin tones”▶ 35:26
- “If you need a neutral palette and you have been interested in this or you love Rare Beauty and you want to support them, then I think it's perfectly fine to make a purchase”
Rare Beauty$22Perfect Strokes Matte Liquid Linershade · Black- “I do appreciate about these is that they are bristles, which I like. I love a bristle. I hate I'm so sick of felt liners”▶ 20:24
- “The end is quite thin, which I like”
- “This is also meant to be matte, which I also really like for a wing liner. I hate it when a wing liner is shiny”▶ 21:02
- “You can really really really get that precision despite how thick it is”▶ 21:17
- “It's doing this thing. Look at. Do you see that? How it's curved like that? It's very um it reminds me of like a calligraphy pen”
- “It doesn't necessarily hold its shape, so I feel like I have to keep setting it basically”
- “I don't like it. I don't like it. I don't like the liner”
- “I do like how how matte it looks. Like it looks really matte and like this nice inky black”▶ 24:19
- “I'm not a fan of those bristles. I don't know, they're too floppy. Like they just flop around”▶ 24:30
- “It felt like it kept drying out really quickly”▶ 37:00
- “I had to keep like flipping it upside down and like shaking it out cuz it kept drying out and quickly. Very quickly”▶ 37:05
- “I'm not a fan of the eyeliner”
Half Magic$22.00- “I'm going to use my Half Magic Flik Eraser. Which I talked about recently in one of my recent videos about like products that I use almost every day”▶ 23:43
Rare Beauty$21.00- “She wanted to create something that was going to be like a lamination gel, like her version of lamination gel”▶ 25:20
- “I used this the other day um just on clean skin. Now, I wasn't wearing any makeup. I was just wearing like sunscreen, you know, my typical skin care and it seemed to do a very nice job”
- “It does look like it's fallen a bit. It's not horrible, but it does look like it's fallen”▶ 32:44
- “One of the things that I did notice when I used it on no makeup the other day was that it felt very soft. It's not like a crusty or anything”▶ 32:51
- “I just feel like the more flexible formulas, they just don't hold when you have like product in them”▶ 32:58
- “If you're someone who uses a lot of product other than just the brow gel, like if you just want to fluff up your brows and you're not using anything else, like a pencil or a powder or a pen, then maybe it'd be good for you”
- “I'm going to continue using the brow gel and we'll see where it goes”▶ 39:03
Rare Beauty$24- “It is quite black”
- “My lashes are already falling. It's so annoying”▶ 28:59
- “Might be good for the lower lashes though”▶ 29:44
- “I like how black it is”
- “Failed experiment. With the mascara”▶ 30:45
- “I really don't like this wand for my lower lash line. It feels like it's just getting on my lash line and not even touching my lash”
- “I am not happy right now”
- “It's just kind of clumpy”▶ 31:16
- “I feel like this would be one of those mascaras that people like if they have really thin, long lashes already”▶ 31:20
- “It seems like it does thicken a bit, but it just doesn't give me the finish that I want at all. Not at all. Literally not at all. Not even a little bit. Disappointing”▶ 31:29
- “I don't like the wand. It's too big and fluffy”▶ 37:22
- “It's definitely a pass for me on the mascara as well”▶ 37:59
Anastasia Beverly Hills$26.00Brow Pen Superfine Waterproof Detail Eyebrow Penshade · Dark Brown- “I'm going to use my Anastasia one, which is I think also just brown, dark brown. Just to fill in those little gaps”▶ 33:56
