Honest Haircare ( Volumizing Spray, Heat Defense Spray, Recovery Masque, Condition + Shine Serum)


The Honest Beauty lineup has been expanding drastically in the past few months and I couldn't be more ecstatic about this change. I have had the pleasure of testing out many of their styling products.  The bottom line of my experience is that there were several hits and misses.  I believe that there are very strong items in their lineup as well as a few weak misses that may have had to do with my particular hair type( so I am not saying that my own misses will be everyone's misses).  Hair is such an individualistic part of each person that I find it difficult to just  place a black and white label on what products are effective and which are not.  Read on to discover the new Honest Beauty Hair range with me!

Honest Beauty Rose Gold Glimmer Set ( Instant Spark , Lips for Days, Shine for Nights )


The holiday season is upon us and with that comes holiday gift sets (limited edition!) and SALES!  You guys, I love the holidays and you can bet that I'm incredibly excited to review this new Limited Edition release from Honest Beauty!  The Rose Gold Glimmer Set has a Luminizer in Instant Spark and two lip glosses in Lips for Days and Shine for Nights.  I love highlighters and lip products (two of my favorite makeup items), so I knew I had to jump on this palette before it was gone! These products didn't disappoint and I decided to test them out so I could give you guys the full low-down before they sell out!

Honest Beauty Reformulated Truly Lush Mascara & Spotlight + Strobe Kit


To be completely honest (pun intended), I've been thinking about unsubscribing to the Honest Beauty Bundles as of late.  I've been getting so much makeup that I didn't see the need for the Bundle anymore even if it was a great deal.  Then, Honest Beauty decided to completely unravel my resolve and release new products, holiday products, as well as haircare!  I've got the low down on their Haircare Line coming very soon, but for today, I'd like to rave about their newly reformulated Truly Lush Mascara and their Spotlight + Strobe Kit!

[Curated Box] Honest Beauty Bundle Eyeshadow Trio (Heather Mauve), Depuffed Eye Gel, Eyeliner Pencil (Eye Opener)


I find that Honest Beauty's forte lies with its affordable, clean beauty color makeup options.  I do, however, deeply enjoy using the Depuffed Cooling Eye Gel as a staple in my morning Summer AM routine.  Honest Beauty really hits it out of the park with their affordability, convenience (they're now at Ulta!), and range of products with minimal packaging.  This time, I tested out another shadow trio in Heather Mauve (a wonderful color option that is still wearable for everyday), and the Eye Opener pencil that is in a classic nude shade.  These are products that have been constantly raved about and I'm here to offer my two cents!

Collectively Curated: Honest Beauty Review Part 4- Refreshingly Clean Powder Cleanser, The Younger Eye Cream, True Velvet Eyeliner (Truly Black)


Honest Beauty is quickly becoming a larger part of my everyday makeup routine. I've learned that there are several hit-or-misses in the line and I'm here to break down another few products for you.  On today's lineup is the Honest Beauty eyeliner in Jet Black, Refreshingly Clean Powder Cleanser, and the Even Younger eye cream. I've found that I'm more particular to their makeup offerings than their skincare lineup.  However, I've grown particularly fond of their powder cleanser and eye cream! It was very much a happy surprise this month and I'm more than excited to share it with you!

Collectively Curated: Honest Beauty Review Part 3- Honest Cream Foundation (Snow) , Everything Makeup Palette (LE), Sheer Lipstick Crayon ( Chestnut Kiss)


It's been a while since my last post on this beautiful line of makeup and skincare.  Since then, there've been many exciting new releases!  One of them is a Limited Edition Everything Palette that is so aptly named in the way that a full face of color makeup can be easily achieved in using this single palette.  I've also decided to test out their Cream Foundation in Snow as I've found that the Honest Beauty Tinted Moisturizer that I previously raved about is actually a bit darker than my skin tone!  Lastly, Honest Beauty had a Black Friday Deal that allowed subscribers to use a promo code to add a free Chestnut Kiss Lipstick Crayon onto their bundle at no extra cost.  I was a bit skeptical of their lip line, but I'm a believer after testing them out myself!  Grab a cup of tea and let's get started!

Collectively Curated Honest Beauty Review Part 2: Oily Trial Kit, Everything Primer, Magic Balm, Even Brighter Everyday Moisturizer, Younger Face Deep Hydration Cream


Today, I'm bringing you the long-awaited part 2 to my Honest Beauty Collectively Curated Series! I'll be focusing on skincare and how I've gotten along with many of their products that are targeted towards blemish prone, oily skin.  These reviews are the cumulation of 1-2 months of testing (save for the Magic Balm and the Younger Face Moisturizer) and I truly believe I've gotten a good grasp of how well these products have worked for my skin.  There've been some hits, there've been some misses, and I'll be documenting all of my experiences below!

Collectively Curated: Honest Beauty Review Part 1: Everything Tinted Moisturizer Oil-free spf 20 in Creme, Luminizing Powder in Midnight Reflection, Eyeshadow Trio in Sable Brown


Excited is a major understatement for my feelings toward the launch of Honest Beauty by Jessica Alba.  Alba is a major woman crush of mine, but don't worry, I'll be documenting my unbiased opinions on the makeup products that I've ordered thus far.  Let me just say that, even with my woman crush aside, these products deliver on a level that I had never imagined with an easily accessible price point.  I love finely milled powders, I love comfortable tinted moisturizers with more coverage than just complexion evening properties, I love wearable neutral eyeshadows that stay put, and these three products have knocked it out of the park in all of these categories.  I'll be covering shade matching, performance, and pricing in this post so grab your cup of tea and let's talk(it's going to be a long one).
