If you don’t feel like watching my 50 min long review my quick summary on @rarebeauty is that I was so pleasantly surprised by how much I liked the products. I still have the foundation on currently & it’s wearing so nice! I don’t think this is just another celeb cash grab 1/2

So all the #rarebeauty products are either good, or… phenomenal. there are some products I KNOW will become staples for me. I loved it all! Totally my vibe. I appreciate the cream products so much and the foundation is AMAZING

Where other celebrity beauty brands were praised as ‘cash grabs,’ Rare Beauty reviews portrayed Rare Beauty makeup as being of high quality and thoughtfulness. Twitter was swift to note that the brand is organic, humane, and offers reusable packaging, plus includes aspects such as the product’s rounded lid shape, intended to help those suffering from arthritis.
just realized that the balls on top of the rare beauty products are meant to help people who suffer with arthritis (selena suffers from it) grip onto the product to open it.. i’m crying 😭😭 pic.twitter.com/jVsSwzadhJ

The only big rare beauty reviews critique of the launch so far has been about the similarities between packaging and Fenty Beauty. However, Twitter has noted that the branding agency is extremely successful with celebrities, influencers, and corporate beauty companies alike — focusing on packaging and brand branding including Fenty Beauty, Rare Beauty, ONE / SIZE, Marc Jacobs and DKNY.

Overall, the response was overwhelmingly positive, including the selection of shades and initial campaign photos, which involve a number of skin tones and models. We’d suggest we could have another celebrity beauty brand responsible for changing the game between the Rare Beauty goods and Selena Gomez’s emphasis on mental health.
The collection is available now in Sephora stores and online, with prices exceeding $30 USD. It is also available on rarebeauty.com, but all items are sold out at the time of release. Although there is no confirmation yet, we will be updating here when the range decreases in Sephora Australia so stay tuned.
XOXO
