Amazing lip stain! It lasts longer than any other brand I've tried. Mai Type is the perfect color for summer. It is a fun pink that works for in the office or on a date.

I have very dark circles under my eyes. This is the first product that has lightened them. I've been using it for approximately 60 days in the morning and again in the evening and have seen a big improvement.

This Rare Beauty 4 in 1 setting mist lasts all day. I usually apply around 6a before work and my makeup is still in place when I get home at 6p. I highly recommend.

Love this product! It was another game changer for my dark under eye circles. It doesn't crease or look cakey later in the day.  I really love the cooling tip because it de-puffs as you apply. You only need half a pump on each eye to really make a difference!

Rare Beauty doesn't lie about their products. This finishing powder really does smooth, reduce shine and set your makeup. It makes your skin look so smooth. I use daily even if I don't do a full make up look.
