Reeminiscence

Hello everyone! Remember those good old days when I used to write about what's new in the beauty world? well, "Beauty News" is back everyone! I really enjoyed writing these posts and I found myself a LOT more informed on the new beauty products so I felt like beauty news might as well make you more aware of all the new interesting products out there.
is a brand that has been around for quite sometime and I haven't heard of it until recently when it went quite popular on youtube. I recognize their products for being too easy to use, most of their products come in a chubby stick form which I quite like.



They just recently came up with a highlighter in a stick form, it's a "Holographic" highlighter. Smart move over there, Milk Makeup. Just when this whole madness about "Holosexuals" AND highlighters took over the internet, Milk Makeup combined these two new obsessions in one product. So, marketing and business wise, it's a great move at the right time.




Makeup wise, the product comes in this chubby retractable stick which I find very user-friendly. It seems like it has a cool tone to it which I happen to steer away from, see the swatches..







First thought that came into my head when I saw the pictures above was "Um, yeah, another fad product to feed the ever growing internet obsession with highlighters and holographic things" but before I made any legitimate judgments I had to see the highlighter in action. No, not the website's embedded  video. Maybe a youtube video?



So, I watched the video above and was thinking "maybe it isn't so bad after all" the product looked SO good on her cheeks but I noticed that it creased on her eyes as it's a cream product. However, I really like how it turned out on her cheeks and inner eye corners.


I personally don't think that cool tones look good on me so I wouldn't give this product a go as I prefer warmer toned product especially for a highlighter.



It looks like a CHUNK of "WOAH"ness at first but if I found that if you apply it subtly and blend it out really well it will look really wearable.


I would love to say it can work as a wash of colour on the eyelids but it creases as I saw in the video mentioned above unless you set it with powder or another eyeshadow which totally defeats the purpose of this highlighter to be honest.
THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE PRODUCT

FREE FROM:

- Parabens 

- Sulfates 
- Phthalates

This product is vegan and cruelty-free.

Shop the product at Sephora
  Here 
Shop the product at Milk Makeup  Here 

The Product costs 
 $28

Overall, I think it isn't fair to make a judgment on a product that I haven't used but from what I've seen so far, I think it won't work for me and I think it works best for:
  •  People with cool undertones
  •  Holosexuals (lol)
  •  Highlighter collectors and fanatics may find this product very interesting too.
  • People who like to experiment with makeup in general.


May you all have a nice rest of the day and for myself, I'll go have some pizza. Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
 Thanks for reading xo

 Ever felt like your foundation looks a bit cakey, patchy or streaky? Even after applying just one layer? Trust me, it's not a good look. I always like my foundation to be evenly distributed and seamlessly blended into my skin. I tend to prefer a more natural look when it comes to foundation. I like to make it look as undetectable as possible but most of the time brushes don't give me the look I want and they tend to leave my foundation looking a bit streaky and a bit cakey.

I find that when I go over my foundation with a sponge it looks a lot better and a lot more natural. I've seen some youtubers use their beauty blender after applying their foundation with a brush but I don't have a beauty blender (I'm that lame ..) so I was watching 
TheBeautyVaultxo the other day when I saw her using one of those fluffy makeup puffs to smooth her foundation out and I was like "Why haven't I ever thought of that?".

So, I was in the mood for a new lipstick yesterday and I went out and had a look but I found that I didn't like any of the lipsticks on display so I switched to the makeup tools section and picked up a pack of two makeup puffs but these ones aren't the fluffy ones. These are the flat smooth ones and I thought that they're going to be great for ending my foundation suffering. I got them for less than three pounds (I also picked up a mini facial cloth to see the hype  around it and I may write a post about it soon). It's crazy how something so cheap and little can be the solution. I'll let you know how I get on with these and I might as well film a video showing you the results after vs. before using the puffs. 


This is everything I got to say about my latest purchase. Let me know what you do to smooth your foundation out, I'd like to know xo

*Gasp* This Beauty blender thing actually looks quite fancy .. 
But what is it? and what does it exactly do? That's what I'm trying to figure out.
Whenever I want to check out what's new in the beauty and makeup world I always check Sephora.com and while I was there scrolling I saw something that caught my eyes and it was a fancy beauty blender ring and I immediately thought that this thing is a regular ring that has a beauty blender attached to it and then you can wear it?
That made me cringe for a moment actually :'D

But when I read more about the product I cringed even more haha..
It's just a fancy holder for the beauty blender that beautifully displays the beauty blender and dries it at the same time..
I'm not exactly sure about the technology that actually dries the beauty blender but in my humble opinion I think it's just a holder that you put your blender on top of it and let it dry and that's it (Oh and pay extra cash for it as well)

The entire set (The beauty blender and the ring) retails for 
$29.00

($39.00 value) which you can find here 

If you ask me... I'd say no thank you I prefer saving cash and letting my beauty blender

(That I don't own)  dry anywhere ..

PS. The beauty blender alone on Sephora's website retails for 
$19.95

What do you think about this bling ring? Is it worth the extra cash?

Let me know down below ..

Thanks For reading
