Rimmel Stay Matte Powder

Hey guys!!!

You guys know my holy grail powder to set my face is Laura Mercier Invisible Loose Setting Powder. I had purchased the Rimmel Stay Matte Powder before I received the Laura Mercier one since now my skin gets oily in my t-zone and I had it in the back of my collection because I loved the Laura Mercier one so much. Once I ran out of it I decided to pull this out and try it out. 



I used two different brushes to apply this product and I prefer using the Real Techniques Powder brush because it is so fluffy and doesn't apply too much product. Even with this brush I have to be careful with the amount of product I put on because it can look very powdery. 

I don't like this powder under my eyes to be honest. On me this makes my under eyes crease a lot more even with a concealer that doesn't crease on me at all(which I will talk about soon). It does keep me matte for 5-6 hours before having to apply more. I have my makeup on since 6am and I start getting shiny by noon and I apply the powder during my lunch time. I don't get shiny again till I get back home at 4pm. 

One thing I do love about this product is that this is a great powder to travel with and with a loose setting powder like the Laura Mercier it can be very messy. 

Overall I do like this powder, but I don't love it. I have very high standards for my powders haha. Do you guys love this powder?? What are some of your favorite drugstore powders??

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 only started following her

What Are AHA's??

 Hey guys!!! AHA's(Alpha Hydroxy Acids) is water-soluble, exfoliates dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, reveals healthy looking skin, and it is suitable for all skin types. It helps stimulate collagen, hydrates the skin, brightens the skin, helps lessen skin texture, helps with acne scars, signs of sun damage, and dark spots. There are different types of AHA's out there.  Glycolic Acid Glycolic acid is the most well known and is used in skin care and is also used by a professional in a chemical peel.  It is either used alone in a skincare product or combined with another AHA ingredients at concentrations of 5% and up. It helps to enhance skin's firmness and resilience while softening signs of sun damage.  The size of this acid allows it to penetrate the uppermost layers of the skin to reveal better looking skin. Also it hydrates the skin, and basically helps the skin retain the natural moisture. Glycolic acid can be derived from sugar cane, but they only use the

What is the difference between Chemical & Physical Exfoliants??

 Hey guys!! What is exfoliation for? Your skin regenerates every 28 days or so and sun exposure and aging slows that process down. That is where exfoliation is key. It removes dead skin cells, brighten your skin complexion, and fades acne scars.  Getting rid of your dead skin cells is very important because it can help prevent bacteria, dirt, and sweat from getting stuck underneath the skin's surface. It can also help prevent and treat acne and inflamed pores.  What type of exfoliations are there? There are two types of exfoliations. Physical and Chemical. Physical Exfoliation Physical exfoliation is my least favorite and I do not recommend. Here is why. Physical exfoliant products uses micro-sized grains, beads, and particles to remove dead skin cells. Basically anything that scrubs at your skin like tiny granules. It is made of coffee grounds, walnut shell powder, sugar, rice, and salt. Other examples of physical exfoliation are a cleansing brush, a konjac sponge, a cloth, and a
