Review Time: TARTE TAPE SHAPE

Hey Everyone!

I just wanted to share my thoughts on Tarte’s Tape Shape Concealer. So I heard about this concealer when it first  came out– however it took me FOREVER  to find my shade. I felt taunted almost every time I would turn to YouTube I would see people like Jaclyn Hill rave about this product. Even my OWN MOTHER HAD THIS BEFORE I DID. So when I went to Ulta Beauty and saw my shade I grabbed it so fast.It’s so blendable and  the coverage is magnificent.  This is one beauty product that truly deserves all the hype and attention. I also love how they keep adding more shades. (DOUBLE WINNING IN MY BOOKS).   Diversity  is A  Beautiful thing to have in life and makeup.

Tape Shape Concealer is  something that TARTE needs to KEEP in their product line-up until the End of Time.

🍑🍑Feelin’ Peachy🍑🍑

Hey Everyone!

So I know that EVERYONE went crazy when Too Faced Cosmetics Sweet Peach Palette was released. I know when I first saw it… I was like it’s so pretty. I didn’t get it immediately. Mainly because I have so much makeup & I’m trying to cut back.  However when I went to Ulta Beauty to get one– it was sold out.  I was heartbroken.  This palette is gorgeous and it smells like PEACHES. DOUBLE WIN!!!!  So my sweet, wonderful, awesome Mother surprised me with the Sweet Peach Eye Shadows.   I can’t wait to upload makeup looks with this palette. So stay tune.

Who is Rainlovespeace?

Hello Everyone!

My name is Raina however most people tend to call me Rain. This is my first post on my new blog. I had a blog previous to this  one, however I just felt the need for change. Change is good right! Though change can be quite scary but it’s also very exciting at the same time.  I’ve learned that change is needed in life to grow.  2016 was very exhausting year for me and I made several changes that year. I had to leave several things in 2016.. i.e. habits, bad vibes and some people.  So ALL that being said, I’m super happy with my new blog.

So like I said my name is Rain. I’m a beauty junkie,foodie, feminist,social media addict, amateur photographer, sociologist, lover of life and Christ.

My blog will feature things that I love hence Rainlovespeace. Why the name Rainlovespeace you ask? It’s simple when I was 18 or 19, I joined Twitter. Rain ( that’s me) +Love ( because LOVE is awesome) && I was quite obsessed with Peace symbols. So I’ve been Rainlovespeace for awhile and I love it.

2018💥♥️

Hello everyone, I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season.

I’m ready for AWESOME things in 2018. ❤️

I know I haven’t blogged in a while. I could just make excuses like, “I was too busy”, or “I didn’t have the time”. However, those would be lies, I just didn’t make the time for blogging. I would pull out my laptop, iPad,even iPhone and start writing but I just wouldn’t finish it. (Literally the amount of drafts, I have it’s quite embarrassing. 🤦🏽‍♀️) Not to mention all the unseen photographs.

It’s 2018 and this is simply going to be my best YEAR yet. 2017, was such a year of growth, planning and now it’s time to THRIVE.

So HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Thanks for reading.

Skin Care Essentials: Body Edition ✨

Hello Everyone!

So this is my FINAL post in my current series about skin care.  This post is going focus primarily on what I love and use to keep my skin healthy.  Sometimes when we hear the term  skincare we think just about our face, however our bodies need love too. These products that I’m going to discuss are phenomenal!! The work so well with my skin and truly reveal radiant  healthy skin.❤️✨

BODY WASH: 🚿🛁

I love this body wash so much! I’ve been using charcoal washes for the past couple years, before the recent charcoal craze in the last 15 months or so. It deep cleans without making my skin feel dry or tight. This product is especially  amazing if your active or  maybe you just sweat a lot. Just because  this body wash pulls out any impurities that could cause any bumps or body acne. I get this from Ulta Beauty.  It also gives your skin this cool deep cleaning sensation.

Earth Therapeutics Purifying Body Wash



 BODY SCRUB: 💕

This body scrub was recommend to me, my esthetician at Nordstroms Spa. This scrub is LIKE NOTHING I’ve used before. It exfoliates and moisturizes your skin at the same time. 🙌🏽❤️ Whish is a Neo Natural company so they use natural  & organic products. Trust me your skin will thank you! Yes, it’s a little pricey but a little of this  scrub goes a long way.  It’s worth it in my opinion, just because there are three exfoliates (Bamboo Powder, Raspberry Seed, Brown Sugar/Organic Sugar Cane).  I mentioned that it moisturizesyour skin and that’s because it has; Organic Shea Butter, Organic Aloe & Organic Raspberry Butter.  Last but not least this product renews your skin since it contains Vitamin E & Organic Avocado Oil.  (This product smells amazing too!)



BODY BUTTERS:

I’m mentioning this Korres Body Butter because it’s my go to summer scent [ White Grape From the Vines of Santorini.] I haven’t been to Greece yet but I image this what Greece must smell like.( this smells like Heaven ) It’s very light weight, yet it quenches your skin. Again, yes this can be pricey but it’s natural, paraben-free, and vegan.  Korres ❤️

**If you want to save some money, HSN sells a lot of Korres products. They even have exclusives ! I order most of my Korres products there. 😘

Josie Maran is all about Argan Love.  She’s basically the Queen of Argan Oil. ( I love that product too) . This Whipped Argan Oil Ultra-Hydrating Body Butter is incredible !!  Its super hydrating and makes your skin feel baby soft.  I know $52.00, sorry but it will last you a long time. This product also is paraben free and has lots of organic ingredients. It’s pricey but it’s staple in my skin care , especially in the cold winter months.  ** This is the largest size and best bang for your buck ! There are other sizes that start at about $35.**

Thanks so much for reading.

What are some of your skin essentials?  Let me know .

 Skin Care Essentials: Moisturizer &Hydration ✨✨

Hello Everyone !

So this is my second blog post about my Skin Care essentials. This post is going to focus primarily on moisturizer for our skin. Hydrating our skin is so important– I mean our skin craves moisture. ✨

One of the best ways to hydrate is to DRINK WATER.… water is essential to any skin care regimen/routine.  I drink all kinds of water from Ice Mountain, Evian, Fiji but my favorite to drink is Essentia Water. It’s my favorite simply because I feel so hydrated after I drink it. It’s one of the BEST Ionzied alkaline water EVER!

I added this AWESOME product to my skin care routine about a month ago.  It’s the M•A•C Cosmetics Lightful C Marine Bright Softening Lotion Spray .  This product has helped my skin in the best way! It has helped by: soothing , brightening, and hydrating. (This is the first step after I cleanse my face)  ** Plus you can spray it on after you’ve applied makeup to hydrate your skin)

These are my current & favorite face creams! Most mornings I use my Josie Maran Whipped Argan Oil face Butter  . Josie’s Face butter has made my skin  supple and soft.  Argan Oil also has so MANY benefits when it comes moisturizing, anti-aging and fading scars.  Personally,  I have noticed that is products impact on my old acne scars. They are a lot lighter.

I was using the Korres Yoghurt Face Cream ( Day Time ) and I still do. I really like this face cream, it calmed my skin when it was freaking out a couple of months ago. It’s light weight and helped diminished texture.

Night Time: I use Korres Greek Yoghurt Advanced Nourishing Moisturizing Sleeping ! I could literally RAVE ABOUT THIS PRODUCT ALL DAY!  This Sleeping Facial DOES WONDERS!   I just wanted to include an excerpt from Korres website.

PRODUCT DETAILS

“Key ingredients: – Greek Yoghurt Concentrate: Contains two and a half times the protein content of regular yogurt for advanced nourishment. –

Hyaluronic Acid: Highly moisturizing, offers significant moisturizing action enhancing collagen production.

– Imperata Cylindrica Extract: Provides continuous moisturization.”  (Korres.com)

What are some of your favorite ways to hydrate your skin?? I loooove SKIN CARE can you tell ! Thanks for reading! I will have one or two more post in my SKIN Care Essentials!

Thanks again for reading!

Skin Care Essentials ✨( Facial Cleansers & FaceMask)✨

Hello Everyone!

Skincare is SO important. I mean our skin is our largest organ, so taking care of it,is ESSENTIAL. I wanted to share some products that I use on the daily basis.  This blog series will have 3 post. *

So let’s start with what I use to keep my skin clean  😊. 

I have two facial cleansers that I use during the week. Then I also have one skin mask [that I try to use at least once a week] 😝. Sometimes I’m tired after a long day and facemask day doesn’t happen. Whoops.  

I’ve mentioned the Korres Cleanser before — and that’s because I love it. It’s very gentle — yet it gets off every trace of makeup !! Korres  Yoghurt Cleanser does that without making your skin feel tight and dry. 

In the past few months, I’ve been using this great and gentle microscrub! 🙌🏽 This Philosophy Exfoliating facial wash is a game changer. It makes my skin feel refreshed, smooth & brand new!!  

MASK:

SKINFOOD ” Egg White Pore Mask” I adore this mask. I found out about this brand from my friend Anna, then literally the next day I stumbled upon it at Ulta Beauty.  Egg White’s help cleanse and tighten pores.   I noticed how small my pores have gotten while using this. I use this once or two times a week. 

Again this post will have one or two more post! I don’t want the post to get to long ! Links are attached😘 Photos are all mine . 📸

What are some of your FAVORITE  facial cleansers??!?! I would love to know. ✨

*Sorry I’ve been slacking on the Blog. Just working a lot, but no more excuses!!!  Consistency is KEY. So more post are coming in the next few days. ( PROMISE ) ✨

So recently I made the decision to FINALLY get some MORPHE BRUSHES. I ordered them last week for my mother and myself.  I ordered 11 brushes. ( 5 for my awesome Mom & 6 for myself)  Let me just say, I can’t believe how well made these brushes are made. They also pick up  eyeshadow and highlighters very well. Already looking to add more Morphe Brushes to my collection.  I have nothing BAD to say about these babies, they truly live up to all the HYPE. They are super affordable and the quality is superb. I know we hear about them all the time from YouTubers but I must say they tuly exceeded my expectations. ✨
