Beauty Blender & Beauty Blender Micro Mini

Hey guys!!!

As some of you know I was loving my Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge and it was holy grail status. I will still use it for whenever I don't have this next product, but this product is actually a little better than the Real Techniques one. I know I barely hauled this last month in my IMATS Haul, but I was really excited to talk about it.


I had been wanting to try out the Beauty Blender for so long, but I wouldn't pay around $20 for a sponge when I could just buy the Real Techniques one for around $6. I also didn't find the Beauty Blender Micro Minis necessary when you can use the regular beauty blender for the exact same thing, but I was impressed with it.

As most of you know you need to run these under water and squeeze out the excess water before you use them. They will double in size once you do that. It is supposed to absorb less product and help you use less product as well.

The beauty blender practically gives the same finish to your skin as the Real Techniques sponge, but it is better for two reason. I noticed that the beauty blender does not soak up as much product and it blends your foundation a little bit better than the other sponge. 

The beauty blender micro mini really impressed me. I had already used the original beauty blender to blend my concealer and it was good, but when I used the micro mini the next day I LOVED the way it blended out my concealer and you are able to get into the hard to reach areas with this much easier. It blended it out better than the original.

Overall these two are now my new holy grail makeup sponges. I will definitely be repurchasing these once they get yucky and old, but if I don't feel like spending the money I will continue using the Real Techniques one. For the most part I will be using these two to be honest.

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.
