[Review] Rants, Raves, & New Purchases Jul 08, 2018

Had some new purchases this week:

  • Too Faced Born This Way Foundation - I tried this before they came out with Swan, when Snow was still the lightest shade. The formula? Perfect for every day. The color? Way too dark. Then they released Swan and I didn’t bother because it was so yellow. But they just released Cloud and...perfection. I’m so happy to have my holy grail formulation back in my collection. It covers up any breakouts and redness I have while still letting my freckles peek through, which I didn’t think a foundation could do. But I’m so impressed.

  • Clarins Light Lip Oil in Raspberry - I love the formula of this and the smell is beautiful. It looks like it would give off some sort of light wash of color but it doesn’t. It’s just clear, which is kind of disappointing. But it feels great and is very hydrating.

  • Tarte Fairy Flush Blush - a lovely shade of light pink but it’s VERY fair. I wish they would have come out with something more universal than a pale pale pink, especially considering this is “limited edition.” But it is pretty and the formula is on par with the permanent colors.

  • Tarte Love, Trust, & Fairy Dust Palette - a pretty palette, but again I feel like it favors only light to medium skin tones. It isn’t my absolute favorite palette but I enjoy using it and the looks I create from it. None of the shimmers are too glittery or chunky, but the highlight in the center kind of is.
