Here’s another texture shot from the RBK Collect

Here’s another texture shot from the RBK Collection paired with a bit of a life update. ♥️ It’s been a super chaotic week for me because the process for getting cosmetic allergy testing is so involved. In fact, I felt like a walking experiment between Monday-Thursday.

But I’m grateful to have gotten the testing done because I do have some allergens that I’ll need to avoid. However, my conversations with my dermatologist were what I found most interesting.

She mentioned that she’s seen an increased number of patients experiencing severe contact dermatitis as a result of their hobby to test and review products. Frequent exposure to common irritants can cause the skin to become more sensitive and allergies to develop.

Also, it’s super interesting that many “clean” brands have more damaging product lists than their “non-clean” alternatives. For me, the only saving grace to Sephora or Credo’s clean beauty standards is that it can make it easier to shop for products *if* one of your allergens is on the list of banned ingredients. (In my case, one of my allergens is banned.) Otherwise, as many of us in the beauty space know, “clean” means absolutely nothing.

I took photos of my reaction and parts of the testing process. Would you be interested in a post detailing the experience of being patch-tested?

A glowy, warm look featuring the @sigmabeauty Cor-de-Rosa Eyeshadow Palette. 🌸 🌹 As for the rest of my face - I don’t remember what I was wearing since this is an older shot but clearly I was feeling an super flushed cheek.

Also *peep* that unwelcome guest near my nose. A part of me thought about editing this lil guy out of the shot, but skin is skin. And acne is normal - don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

On a side note, does anyone else have their day sweatshirts and lounge wear and evening lounge wear? Even though I’m sick of being stuck at home, I still find some humor in changing from my day sweats and sets to my evening ones! 😂

I can’t lie - I 💯 painted my nails solely for this photo. The polish I’m wearing is one of the new @personacosmetics Paints in the shade Taupe. [One of my all-time fave nude polishes.]

But anywhoo just another shot featuring some of my RBK Super Shock Shadows when they were still in pristine condition. ✨ I really need to work on sharing more photos of less-than-pristine products. 🤡

For all my content creator friends, how do you feel about sharing “less-than-perfect” photos of your products or food or whatever your niche is?

I love seeing this type of content from others, but I never feel as confident sharing images of heavily-used products on my own page. As a result, sometimes it’s months before I share a photo of a collection.

I may not live in the Pacific Northwest, but New England has its moments. 😉 How could I pass up an opportunity to take a photo of the @colourpopcosmetics x RBK (@rawbeautykristi) At Forest Sight Palette in my nearby forest area?

I’m sure most of you know, but the inspiration behind this Palette is the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Given Kristi’s love for her state, sustainability, and nature the theme is perfect. 🌲 🍄 And the packaging is definitely some of the prettiest ColourPop has done.

I’m a huge fan of the grungy rainbow color story of the palette. 🌈 Although I typically prefer more shimmers in a palette, I love the selection of rich mattes Kristi chose.

Also, I love that the super shock shadows in the collection pair perfectly with the palette to transform these mattes without overpowering the pigment underneath.

Would you rather live in a city setting or the countryside?

What is sparkly and round, with a creme-to-powder

What is sparkly and round, with a creme-to-powder finish? 🤔

If you guessed that this was the texture of an untouched Super Shock Shadow then you are correct! ✅ Specifically, this is the shade Campfire from the RBK x ColourPop collection.

Of the 4 Super Shock Shadows in this collection, Campfire is *by far* the most pigmented shade. 🧡While the rest of the shades in the collection function more like transformative eyeshadow toppers, this shade really stands on its own.

For best application, use your finger and press or swipe onto the lid to add a orange-toned, wet-looking shine to the lids.

I’m not sure why, but during the big Beauty Guru boom using fingers to apply makeup became so taboo. 🤚🏻 How do you feel about using your fingers to apply makeup?
