Rimmel London Glam'Eyes Eyeshadow Quad

Hey guys!!!

I was at Target one day and there were a couple of eyeshadow quads on clearance for less than $3 and I picked one up to try out. It is the Rimmel London Glam'Eyes Eyeshadow Quad in State of Grace. 




I have never been so disappointed in any eyeshadow palette like I am with this one. Normally I am able to find a way to work with eyeshadows whether I use a primer or primer and a base like for example a maybelline color tattoo or nyx jumbo eye pencil. When I had swatched the colors it looked really promising and I had high hopes for it. 


I swatched each color twice and it looks amazing especially the blue and purple shades. I applied it on my eyes with only primer and it didn't look as pigmented as it did on the swatch. Everytime I would blend the colors the color would blend away. I kept adding color to my lid and it kept doing the same thing. I still wore it throughout the day and by the end it looked like I didn't add a purple eyeshadow on my lid it looked like a bunch of shimmer.

I decided to use a maybelline color tattoo one day and another day i used the NYX jumbo eye pencil hoping it would be better. With the color tattoo it did the same thing and by the end of the day only the color tattoo was showing which was weird. It worked a little better with the NYX pencil, but still not good enough for me to even love this product. It didn't blend away as much and the color didn't fade away as much by the end of the day. The color is still not as pigmented as I want when I first apply it on my eyes.

Overall this was a very disappointing product for me. I have never had these issues with any other eyeshadows that I have used. I honestly think I will throw this one away. Did you guys try out this product and did you have issues like I did?? What are some of your favorite Rimmel products??

Rose and Ben Beauty Brushes

 Hey guys!! I haven't done a beauty post in a while and I was in the mood to do one because I am very excited to talk about these! I started follow Rose on IG roseandben  thanks to my friend and I have been loving her content. You can see the passion she has for makeup. I love that she posts on IG stories almost everyday doing a tutorial or talking about her fav products.  I have actually purchased and few of her recommendations and 99% of the products I have bought have become staples in my collection.  When she announced she was coming out with a brand  Rose and Ben Beauty  I just knew it would be brushes because she would always be using prototypes in her tutorials. I trusted her judgment in products soooo I bought most of the collection.  Aren't these brushes beautiful?? When I first got the brushes I felt the bristles and they were so soft. The quality of the bristles and even the handles feels so luxurious. I love the color of the handles too. I ...

Battle of the Eye Primers

Hey guys!! I have oily eyelids and I struggled when I was younger with my eyeshadows and eyeliner creasing. At the time I never understood why. I went into sephora a couple years ago with my best friend and asked "how can I stop that from happening?" That's when I was introduced to eye primers. My first ever eye primer was the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. I have been testing out 6 different eyelid primers and out of the six only two did not work for me. I decided to do this blog for the people that have that same issue as me and to show you guys what options there are out there in the make up world from drugstore to high end.   I tried the ELF Eyelid Primer, Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer, Mary Kay eye primer, Urban Decay Primer Potion, Too Faced Shadow Isurance, and BareMinerals Prime Time Primer. I'm going to start off with the one that was the worst one out of all of these. It was the Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer. $4.99 ...

Aveeno ultra calming makeup removing wipes

Hey guys!!! I received the Aveeno makeup remover wipes as a gift! Finally I was able to stop using the horrible wipes that I was using before!! These wipes are amazing! They smell so good and everytime I take one out I have to smell it before I use it on my face. They are very moist and they remove most of my face and eye makeup. I always go with a cotton round with another makeup remover no matter which wipes I use just to make sure everything is off. I don't know if they remove waterproof mascara since I am not using one at the moment. Most IMPORTANTLY it did NOT break me out!  I looked online on walmart to see how much it was and it is around $7. I probably will purchase this myself later on down the line.
