Rag Dolls Bath & Beauty Review

Rag Dolls Bath & Beauty Review
I've been a fan on the Rag Dolls Bath & Beauty Facebook for awhile now, but hadn't purchased anything because honestly I had kind of forgotten about the company; until I found out that one of my very dear friends Megan was friends with Arielle, the owner of RDBB.
Anyhow, I saw that she offered a reviewer kit and promptly placed my order. I received sample sizes of the Nightmare Before Christmas Collection, Gluttony a blush from the 7 Deadly Sins blush collection,Twigs & Berries tinted lip balm, & Love You Long Time eyeshadow primer.

My items arrived in a bubble mailer

Packaging

I LOVE the tissue paper! My daughter promptly took possession of the spider ring,lol.

I swatched this over the primer as well as bare skin so you could see how lovely and peachy pink the color is

What I thought of Rag Dolls Bath & Beauty

Customer Service - Excellent! Arielle was very kind and helpful.
Shipping - Fast and reasonably priced.
Packaging - I love love love the packaging; It was so cute.
Lip Balm - Smells just like berries! Very sweet and fruity smelling. Lightly tinted, but the tint doesn't seem to stay on long; even though I can still feel the balm on my lips.
Eyeshadow - I'm not a huge fan of matte shadows, but I really liked these. I will have to try some of her shimmery shadows soon. They are well pigmented, wear very nicely and are long lasting. Smooth application, easy to apply. The only complaint I have is that they were a little clumpy =/
Blush - Smooth and such a pretty color.
Eyeshadow Primer - I was actually really pleasantly surprised with the primer; it's a little stick and hard to work with at first, but once I warmed it up a little on my finger and started smoothing it out over my lid it just glided on like a cream.

Over all Thoughts
 Everything in the shop is average in price. I will surely have to try a few more items in the future.
I would recommend checking out Rag Dolls Bath & Beauty!

My 1st Sugar Skull

With all these Sugar Skull images floating around I decided to try it out.
I need a different type of base, this one was too greasy. It was like trying to dry on plastic with a marker and going over it before it is dry...it kind of erases the line before.
Anywho, here is my attempt!

Muse Minerals Review




While browsing Heartsy one evening I came across Muse Minerals. I really liked the colors that I saw, so I decided to send the shop owner a message through her Etsy shop. I asked if she offered any type of reviewer pack, she does not at this time,but said she would be more than happy to send me a few samples. 
I received my package a few short days later and was very pleasantly surprised.

Here is a letter she sent with my samples explaining why she started her own makeup business =) 

My samples arrived in a standard bubble mailer

My thoughts on Muse Minerals

I honestly LOVE this company.
Alyssa the owner of Muse minerals/cosmetics is super sweet and kind, Her customer service is outstanding. She is just starting out so there are many color choices,but she is in the process of making some new fall colors,more blush shades and a base shade to complement Halo!
The eye shadows are very smooth,most colors are vegan friendly,average pricing,great color payoff and apply super easy with VERY little fallout.
I smell my makeup before I use it(yes,I know this is odd,lol.) There was a slight smell to the makeup and I kept wondering what it was. Well turns out the smell was rice powder lol. It's not a big deal or anything, I was just not expecting a smell. It's a very faint aroma of rice and you cannot smell it once applied.
Would I recommend Muse Minerals? 
Yes, I would! I would also keep an eye out for her new items as well. I definitely plan on purchasing some more colors soon, I spotted a few purples that I just have to try!
