The launch of Selena Gomez’s new makeup line, Rare Beauty, was long-awaited. I was so excited for the line to be available online, but I then realized I had no idea what to get. My debate was to purchase the highlighter, the foundation (but quickly decided no because I am the worst at selecting foundations online), or the eyebrow pencil. For a fact I was getting the lip cream and I am so glad I did. So I then settled also for the blush, which wasn’t even on my initial list. This was the indecisive Taurus/Gemini part of me taking over. UGH.
Let’s talk about the Lip Soufflé Matte Lip Cream. Holy smokes, I love this lip color! I got it in the color Fearless (which IMO is probably a nod to BFF Taylor Swift) and the color is gorgeous. This is THE color you need for fall. It will give you brown foliage, PSL feels—and I’m into it! The tube feels velvety smooth and this is exactly how the formula feels on your lips. Unlike your typical liquid lipstick, this one although still matte, feels so smooth on meaning no dry lips. Phew! The color payoff is great as well—not too light and not too dark, but the perfect in between. In between is good, right? I have my 👀 on other colors. So good!
The Soft Pinch Liquid Blush in Bliss is so pretty and delicate. I felt like a French girl wearing it. If I had to pick one beauty product that I will always wear even on the days when I’m not putting in as much effort is a blush. This one is a nude-y peachy pink color. The doe-foot applicator is nice to apply precise dots on the apple of your cheeks. Video reviews of this product constantly warned that a little goes a long way. I figured two dots in each cheek suffices. I blend them in with a brush although you can use your fingers as well. Easy peasy!
Have you tried Rare Beauty? What are your favorites from the line? Check out my IG Reel featuring the above products. Also random but related question: Who saw Selena + Chef on HBO Max? I loved every episode! Highly recommend.
