Linen doesn’t appear to be an exact match for any of these, but I feel like it’s closest to the Sephora or that Shape Tape in Light? In terms of formula, it probably matches the MAC one the most because they’re both dryer/more of a paste and less liquidy than the tube concealers. I never realized how peachy orange that NYX one is…but it’s also a little old so perhaps it’s gone bad by now.

Or, at least long enough for me to feel that I got my money’s worth. It doesn’t really look like a lot, does it? At first I was a bit miffed that I had paid like $4.50 for each gram of product, but that was before I had used it – a little bit really does go a long way, and I feel these will last me a decent amount of time. Here’s what they look like all swatched together on me:Įach stick is 0.25g of product – here’s what that looks like: However I found that if applied carefully with a light hand it looked just fine. It applies smoothly as well but this one does have flecks of glitter so it can emphasize texture a bit if you have any. It’s a cool toned pink highlight that’s sparkly but subtle, and you can build it up to be more glittery and bold. The last shade is Starstruck, the shimmery stick of the set.

It has cool undertones and is even slightly grey – it’s a pretty much perfect shade for contouring on pale skin like mine! Like Linen, this one blends out really nicely. It’s described as “fair to light cool pinky undertones” but imo it’s actually more yellow than that.Īmber is a second matte shade, this time for contouring.
Anyway – let’s take a look at the shades. They also make a nice aesthetically pleasing honeycomb shape.Īnd speaking of aesthetically pleasing – how great is this minimal millennial pink packaging? I love it. It’s a neat feature that keeps them from getting jumbled around in my makeup bag and I imagine it would be great for travel too. Something really cool about these is that the stix are actually magnetic so they snap together. The shades included in this set are Linen, Amber, and Starstruck. I haven’t done that yet but want to in the future!Īnyway, like I said I bought one of the trios from Sephora – the one I got is Light 100. Sephora sells some pre-made sets for different skin tones, but on the Fenty website you can actually customize your own set of 3. You can buy them individually for $25 each or in that set of three for $54, which actually saves you quite a bit of money so that’s cool. They come in two varieties like I mentioned ( matte and shimmer) and each come in a huge variety of colors. These are a creamy stick of color that can be used for concealing, contouring, and highlighting. The only purchase I have made from the line so far has been this trio of matte and shimmer color sticks, aka Match Stix: I fell in love immediately with basically all of it, but due to the fact that makeup costs money, I haven’t been able to get my hands on all of it quite yet. Pretty much every item is now on my Sephora wishlist. In addition to the huge range of foundations, Rihanna also released a number of highlighters, a blotting powder, a lip gloss, and several brushes. Welllll the screenshot above speaks for itself, and it’s been insanely popular. I (like everyone else) was intrigued to see what the line offered. Most people were super excited that the brand was debuting with an unheard of 40 foundation shades – 3/4 of which are sold out at Sephora right now: It’s taken over the front page of Sephora! Fenty Beauty is the makeup brand created by Rihanna, and the makeup world has been all abuzz about it since the line was announced. If you’re into makeup like I am, you probably are aware of the major release that happened last month in the form of Fenty Beauty:
