FLOWER BEAUTY BLUSH BOMB REVIEW

-
In today's post I'm going to be sharing a review on one of my new favorite products, Flower Beauty's Blush Bomb! Enjoy!


Flower Beauty has been one of my all-time favorite makeup brands for a long time and I was so excited when they released this product a few months ago. I love cream and liquid highlighters, but I've never used a liquid blush like this before, so it did take some time for me to figure out how it works best for me. 

This product is very pigmented, so a little bit goes a long way. I typically don't use much more than a pea sized amount. I often end up applying too much of it, so if this happens to you, I recommend putting few dots of your concealer or foundation over top of it to tone down the color. Even though it has intense color payoff, this product wont stain your skin and washes off easily at the end of the day. This product would be perfect for both oily and dry skin, because it is long-lasting, but also doesn't accentuate any dryness. 

There are 6 shades available ranging from a light neutral shade to a bright berry. It will definitely be able to suit a variety of skin tones because of how they have high pigmentation, but are also buildable and natural-looking at the same time. I have the shade "Bitten" which in the tube looks like it would be way too dark for my pale skin tone, but it blends out nicely to be a bright, yet natural, flush on the cheeks.

My preferred application method is using a brush (I love to use a mini Flower Beauty blush brush that I got as a free gift with purchase). I put a dot of the product on the back of my hand and stipple it on my cheeks with the brush. I find that I'm able to control the placement and concentration of the product much better when I apply it this way. You can use just your fingers to apply this too, but I find that to be more difficult to get a natural and blended look out of it. I don't use makeup sponges, but I'm sure it would also work well to apply this product.

This is definitely now on my list of favorite products I've tried from Flower Beauty and I highly recommend trying it if you're interested! It retails for $9.99 at Ulta, but there is often a sale on their products, so be sure to keep an eye out for that if you're planning to buy it. If you prefer powder blushes, check out my review here of Flower Beauty's Flower Pot Powder Blush, which I also love!

SAFIYA NYGAARD x COLOURPOP COLLECTION REVIEW 🦇♥

-
Image
For my first post of  the new year, I wanted to share my thoughts on one of my favorite makeup releases, the Safiya Nygaard x Colourpop collection ! Safiya is one of my favorite YouTubers and Colourpop is my favorite makeup brand, so this is a really exciting collaboration!  Safiya consistently makes a variety of really high quality and interesting videos that mainly focus on beauty and fashion. I admire how much time and research she puts into what she does, all of the work that is put into these videos really shows in the finished product. If you haven't watched her channel before, I really can't recommend it enough!  In August 2017, she started a series called " bad makeup science ", which is the basis of this new Colourpop lipstick collection. There are 6 lipstick shades that correlate with a shade she created in one of her videos. You can check out the playlist of videos that inspired her collection here . I recently re-watched the whole series again

ARIANA GRANDE GOD IS A WOMAN FRAGRANCE REVIEW

-
Image
When all is said and done, you'll believe God is a Woman!  I absolutely love all of the  fragrances   Ariana Grande  has released over the years, so when I found out that she was coming out with another I was so excited! Her song " God is a Woman " is also so iconic and one of my all-time favorites, so that made me look forward to it even more. I have been using it consistently for several months so I will able to give the most in-depth review I possibly can of this product. In the United States , God is a Woman  is sold exclusively at Ulta in three sizes; 1 oz for $45, 1.7 oz for $55, and 3.4 oz for $65. A travel size bottle is also available for $24. This pricing is consistent throughout the rest of Ariana's fragrances, so if you were looking to purchase another scent this is the range to expect. It is also available internationally at select retailers. God is a Woman  is cruelty free, 100% vegan and made with clean ingredients that are 91% naturally derived. The c

GUTS by Olivia Rodrigo // Album Review

-
Image
GUTS  is the highly anticipated sophomore release from Olivia Rodrigo , following up her massively successful debut album, SOUR , in 2021 . To have the level of success she has had right out the gate with her first-ever single "driver's license" in early 2021 is so rare and she quickly became one of the most notable pop artists to debut this decade so far. There are a lot of songs that I have come to really enjoy on this album, some of which are among my favorites of the entire year so far. When comparing  GUTS   to  SOUR ,  they are alike in a lot of ways, both sonically and aesthetically. In my opinion,  GUTS  builds upon the foundation she and her producer/co-writer, Dan Nigro, set in place with  SOUR  really well. Olivia is in such an interesting and unique position as an artist right now. The closest, or most recent, comparison I have to it is where Billie Eilish was at with her career a few years ago after her debut album . Both her and Olivia went from being virtu

Room 93 by Halsey // 10 Year Anniversary Album Review

-
Image
Room 93 is the 2014 debut EP by Halsey , a collection of five songs written through the lens of a young woman who left it all behind to chase a dream far bigger than herself, all while trying to make sense of the world around her.  In an interview with  All Things Go Music  in 2014, Halsey described the concept of  Room 93  being inspired by her time living in a hotel room for the year spent making the EP. "I've formed romantic relationships and business relationships and friendships out of hotel rooms. What's weird about them is it’s like a stage setting, a fake place. It’s not a real environment," she said. "The EP is a narrative about how in a hotel room, because of the forced intimacy, you can either really be yourself for a bit or you can really be someone you're not. So it's about human relationships under the scope of that lab rat mentality, or security cam mentality." Certain visual themes shine through in this music; it's almost as if yo

Maybelline Fit Me Dewy & Smooth: Review

-
Image
⋆I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes. As always, all opinions are my own.⋆ I have no prior experience trying either primer or foundation, so I really have nothing to compare these products to. In my makeup routine I only ever used concealer, which I mentioned in my previous review of the Colourpop No Filter Concealer . I was very excited to receive the Maybelline Master Prime Hydrate + Smooth Primer, as well as the Maybelline Fit Me Dewy + Smooth Foundation courtesy of Influenster !  Master Prime Hydrate + Smooth Primer As I previously mentioned, I have never tried any primers at all, because I always just had the feeling that it was gimmicky and doesn't really do anything to prolong your makeup.  I have tested this primer out several times and I don't really think it does anything for my skin besides add an unnecessary extra layer of product. I have not experienced this clogging my pores, giving me breakouts, i
