warning for my dark skin, neutral toned and tan peeps out there: the shade range may look big but you might have to buy the black or white. me and my mom went to ulta and i tried to find her shade and the darkest shade didn’t match her so she had to mix the black with it. me on the other hand was the lightest tan shade they had but when i looked how it looked in the sun medium 10 was basically white and i had to mix tan 1 with the white because it was oompa loompa coloring. so long story short if you buy the concealer, if your neutral, dark skinned, or tan you might have to buy the black or/and white to get your correct shade. (edit: ok so i found out r.e.m is backed and produced in the same factory by morphe which is why the shades are so wack. I know this is not Ariana’s fault since morphe has always had crappy products for tan and really dark skin.)

For my dark skin sisters out there I'd like to add something. Watch Ohemaas video. She swatches the last 6-8 shades and they don't run that dark than you would think, with that many concealers. There was a lot of space for more shades between the last one and the black mixer. Which I find disappointing. Why have that many shades and then not do, what you probably intended to do.

Just a tip for anyone who has had issues with the concealer being to drying….since the concealer has hyaluronic acid, it will work best if you apply an eye cream under it. Hyaluronic acid in makeup will dry out the skin if you do not have the proper skin care underneath. Hope that helps :)

it's because of who alex is

First off, LOVE this look. Second off, I work at ulta have seen/played with all of the REM launches, and I’m going to be honest, her first few launches had a few hits, but mostly misses. Her newer products tho, are AMAZING. The concealer, and newer lip products are GREAT. The lip liners specifically have now become my fav lip liner formula. They’re perfectly waxy and stiff, but super creamy and have SUCH a long wear time. Honestly they last longer than any lip liners I’ve used, even mac lip liners! But overall, I think she’s heading in the right direction with her brand and starting to release cult favs! I’ve heard no bad reviews on the concealer, lip liners, and the new brow gel (Ik you’re a soap brow type but I think you’d really like it! It has a great hold) but overall, loved ur review and am so happy she’s getting a redemption arch for you! ❤️❤️

I’m glad rem beauty has its own theme/identity because I think it looses appeal pretty quickly when a brands whole identity is it’s owner (i.e. Jaclyn hill, Kylie, kkw). But I gotta say the whole space/sleep theme feels like it came out of left field lol

@scarlettyoung4744

Жыл бұрын

coming at you with the lore rn. if you're a fan of ariana it's definitely not surprising that the theme of her brand is a dreamy and vintage sci fi space sorta thing. she has a song titled rem, and a perfume called rem after that. rem is on her dreamiest and most cloudy sounding album (sweetener). a lot of her early music video inspirations come from the 60s and the depictions of the future and space, so it's definitely on brand for her, but i don't expect the average person to obviously see her as more than another pop star lool so i can see how this might seem quite random.

Love everything. I agree with liquid lipsticks. I have a problem with them also. Having said that, I did love the dark color on you. Very pretty look.

Loved the vid as always. I would have loved a swatch of the metallic eyeshadow on a black base.

Duuude you’re freaking stunning and your makeup looks are next level.

As always, your honesty is greatly appreciated 💕

Those lashes are so pretty!! I wanna try this concealer!! Thanks for testing it for us Alex!!

from the first launch i liked the highlighter, didn't like the eyeliner but looved the lipstick (the space helmet kind) happy to see you now approve too

You’re one of my faves. Really honest and don’t really use flowery words. Very straightforward.

Love this look !! Glam but very natural too. Just gorgeous!!

I LOVE your microscopic makeup applications!!

my eyes are just like yours and so i always had a problem with concealing my under eye bags. when i saw the way you do your concealer i HAD to try it and it was perfect!!

Absolutely gorgeous!!!!! And ...again, I AM OBSESSED WTH YOUR BROWS.....FLAWLESS!!!!!

I love the look so much! ! ! So delicate

Love this look and you saved the lips with that gloss at the very end.

I definitely loved that look! You're soooo cool!

whoa this finished look is sooooo beautiful on you 😍

I like how the blush isn't overbearingly pigmented but just enough

That lip color looks so good on you!!!

I saw them at ulta, the shade range they had was barely nothing because they were all sold out. Now you like them so I will need to try. This looks great without color correction.

This matches you hair so beautifully❤

I think the concealer did a great job under ur eyes. Love the eye look, then again I always love ur eye looks. I wish I had the real estate on my lids like u have.

Love the silver shadow💖💖💖

The blush is nice ☺️

Stunning look!!

happy birthday dear. I follow u from London. again and again please more videos of hooded eyes make up

my recent poshmark shopping history also says i am ready for fall - BOOTS ! LEATHER!

The red lip is incredible on you! Especially with that eyeshadow! I am loving every angle of this look!

i love how down to earth you are !!

Love REM. Genuinely clean and melts into skin nicely.

Dude, I kind of love that eyeshadow. Also, I'm pretty impressed by the concealer. 🐿

Eyes look great! Since the concealer didn’t settle into creases/lines, wonder how it would have done had you gone further up in the under eye area?

When a more watery liquid lipstick pulls off when you touch your lips together, try gently removing it with a dry tissue. Sometimes it can have a secret unintentional benefit-- it stains your lips like you just ate a popsicle! You can then top the stain with a gloss or lip balm, and it stays all day. It doesn't work with a more creamy liquid lipstick, but it can work with the more watery ones. Give it a shot!

i misread the title as RMS makeup and i was stoked! but alas. have you ever used rms? i would love to see what you think of it!

i love your eyes! beauty😘

I’ve heard good things from other influencers about this concealer, too ! I will have to check it out. My circles are like 5x darker than yours 😢😂

I've heard great things about the lipsticks so I think you should give them a shot!

Stunning!

Hi, Alex! I have a random question: I would like to go sugar free for my skin and mental health, and your commitment has inspired me. Would you ever consider doing a video in which you talk about the specific benefits you’ve seen (other than a reduction in dark circles, which I also have FML). Maybe on your other channel? I would love to know if you experienced symptoms at the beginning, when/how often you slip up, and just how it’s effected even other areas of your life. Maybe on your other channel? Looovvvveee You.

For the reduction of dark circles it's real for some but also doesn't work for everyone if you were born with them! I'm indian from my mom's side and i was born with the same very dark circles my maternal grandmother has, so if it's natural pigmentation it won't have an effect on that. I do not have random bouts of acne showing up on my face anymore at all except for a few zits that pop up when i'm in the ovulating phase of my menstrual cycle though, and my skin is so much clearer and just very glowy compared to three years ago too, and it feels much softer to the touch too. I went sugar/carbs free 3 years ago (almost 4 years ago soon enough) with my doctor agreeing to my decision to change my diet (please ask your doctor before doing a drastic diet change like that) and now, mental and physical health wise it's a bliss. I never bloat or feel tired anymore, and i don't suffer from the ups and downs of sugar rushes anymore, but i guess even there every experience is going to be very personal. It wasn't hard at all for me to cut it out of my diet and i didn't feel tired or sluggish but a lot of people seem to have that phase as their bodies adjust to not receiving sugars anymore. Personally I had to cut sugars and carbs because it was rising my cortisol (stress hormone) levels to very high and that was just not good for my mental health as they were already above limit since childhood as i have generalized anxiety and naturally am very stressed and have had tachycardia ever since i was 9 because of that (i have no heart malformations though, it's purely because of my high cortisol and please everyone consult a doctor and a cardiologist if you think you may suffer from tachycardia to know which form of it it is and i also still have to take actual medication for my heart as well to keep my heartbeats at a normal rate so please consult a doctor for that). I feel generally more relaxed and stable mental health wise even though i still have my ups and downs today because that's life and these past two years have been absolute garbage for most people. But in the end i totally recommend for anyone to consult a doctor and see if they can start a sugar free diet considering that all i got was amazing results and that i feel much better ever since i went sugar free.

I found that REM Beauty and Fenty Beauty's packaging is super similar and the formulas are also very much alike. Both foundations and concealers that I tried had light coverage. I am generally not a fan of liquid lipstick either and the way the REM Beauty liquid lipstick moved on your lips was awful sauce. I had a bad experience with a liquid lipstick / lip oil from About Face Beauty because it was too clumpy and gross on my lips 💋 😝
