- Hi, I'm Clare and welcome back to my YouTube channel.
Insert witty joke here. (clicks)
(liquid bubbling)
I got the idea for this video
when I was on the Beauty Bay app and it said Veganuary.
I clicked through and it was all vegan makeup
and I thought, that's an idea.
I'm gonna do this challenge
where I only wear vegan makeup,
a full face of vegan makeup for a week
and I only bought things that said vegan
in the description.
I don't understand the different between
vegan friendly and vegan.
It's either vegan or it isn't,
you know what I'm saying?
If you see the leaping bunny on something,
it means it's certified cruelty free,
however it does not mean it's vegan.
You learn something new every time you do a video challenge.
I searched vegan and I bought something
for every stage of the makeup process.
This is so exciting!
In the scheme of things, it was actually quite affordable.
Came to 61 euros and 49 cents.
It's an expensive all business buying a full face of makeup
every time I'm gonna do a video.
Foundation, concealer, brows, mascara, eyeliner,
lipstick (gasps) that's such a nice color.
Highlighter, blah, blah, blah.
Vegan powder.
I'd never heard of this YouTuber.
No tea, no shade.
Well, all tea, no shade.
But this is amazing and I am so excited about this.
Look at that, awww, stop it.
What I realized after I received this package
was that I had actually stuck
to a lot of the same brands by accident.
Oh my god, nearly everything is that brand, Wet n Wild.
Oh two brands, oh cool, oh shit. (laughs)
There are two brands of make up, apparently,
in Clare world that are vegan, that's it.
Everything was Makeup Revolution or Wet n Wild
except for the eyeshadow and highlighter palette
and let me talk to you about the eyeshadow and (jargons)
highlighter palette for a second.
This was a BH Cosmetics collab with an influencer
and the minute I saw it, I knew I had to buy it
'cause it had a unicorn on it.
It was a Marvycorn Palette by Marvyn Magnificent,
Macnificent, oh that's so clever, his name is Mac-nificent
'cause he's an MUA.
Did not put that together before now, wow.
I've also had this makeup a very long time.
Anyway, so as a 13 color shadow and highlighter palette,
vegan, happy days.
And I looked up this YouTuber
and he's like, Russian or something
and unfortunately he has no English captions,
why can't I say the word captions?
Unfortunately he has no English captions on his videos
so I can't watch them.
You know, it'd be great if you could put
English captions on the bad boy,
it's only three euros a minute on rev.com.
(clicks) Thank me later.
Not sponsored, but that's how I caption all my videos.
My captions are like, almost perfect,
but because I have an Irish accent,
sometimes they're not exactly perfect
but I hope that you appreciate them all the same.
Moving on.
I of course also got a rainbow highlighter
because why wouldn't I?
(sings)
And I just realized I'm not wearing it,
why am I not wearing it?
You idiot!
So I have some footage from the week
and I'm gonna talk you through the products
and what I liked and disliked.
Can I just say that any criticism
of the makeup that I bought
is aimed at the makeup that I bought.
It is not necessarily because the makeup is vegan.
I don't know if that's why some of the formulas were shite,
because they're vegan
or just because the brands that I went with are cheap.
I don't mind if the vegans come for me,
I was vegan for two weeks once, so...
I did my part.
Look, being vegan's really hard.
I was vegan just in food for two weeks
and couldn't keep it up.
Being vegan takes such a concentrated effort
and thought into every single thing that you buy.
It's a whole lifestyle that I'm not ready for
but I was willing to dip me toe in here with some makeup
and see how I went, and this is how I went.
Wet n Wild Photo Focus Foundation.
Mmmm, didn't like it.
Don't like the applicator, don't like the texture,
don't like how it stays on, it's not for me.
See those lines there?
Like this sort of shit.
Like, that's just wrinkles, you know what I mean?
So next we go concealer,
'cause apparently everyone puts on concealer
second except for me.
Wet n Wild Photo Focus Concealer.
Can't remember a huge amount about this product,
which doesn't speak volumes.
I felt like it wasn't high coverage enough for me.
Once I blended it in, it looked like I didn't have it on
and because I have such old lady bags under my eyes,
I really need that stuff to be thick as treacle,
to be honest.
Wet n Wild H2O Proof Felt Tip Liquid Eyeliner,
what a nice short title.
This liquid eyeliner was one of those liquid eyeliners,
do you know the ones that go pure tacky
once you put it on
and you feel like you could just peel it off
in one long line when you're done with it?
Yeah, didn't love it.
I did notice earlier that the black eyeliner
was harder to get on
and now it's harder to get off.
Oh my god, is it still not off?
The power of makeup.
Nikkietutorials, eat your heart out.
Two years ago.
Okay, this eyeliner is impossible to get off,
look at that.
Never happened to me before.
Ow, look how red that is,
look how red that went to get that off.
Makeup Revolution, the Mascara Revolution, now.
I need to preface this by saying
perhaps I got a faulty wand.
Okay, so that's not too bad but I've made a mistake again.
The mascara comes out way too much on the brush.
Mascaras, for those of you that don't know,
in the tube have things on the side,
wow I should explain things for a living,
that pull off the excess mascara
as you pull the brush out of the yoke (sighs)
so that there's not too much mascara on the brush.
This one did not have that,
or it had broken off, or something
because I would take out the brush
and it's just like, dripping in mascara.
It's like clumps everywhere.
I don't know how to explain too much mascara
to anyone who's never worn mascara, but it's a bad time.
So I hated this mascara, I hated it.
By the end of the week, I was rubbing it off on tissues
to try and get less mascara on the brush
so I didn't have to walk around
with 10,000 spider legs on my face.
Let me show you how I like my eyelashes, okay?
I'm gonna come in, I'm gonna zoom in real close there.
So this may be personal preference,
but I like my eyelashes like this.
Separate, long and thin,
you know what I mean?
I don't want six eyelashes, you know what I'm saying?
So far we're having a mare.
Makeup Revolution, Revolution Bake and Finish Powder.
Personally I don't think they need the word
Revolution in every single product,
seeing as it's the name of the brand,
but I don't work for them so, whatever.
I liked this baking powder.
I've never had powder specifically for baking before
but I quite liked it.
I did find that when you bake it on,
it sometimes is really white
and you can't get it to not look super white afterwards.
I'm doing the baking wrong, definitely,
'cause look how light that is.
It's white.
Shit, that's the only thing I can't figure out.
The baking powder is still white there.
How do I fix that?
But maybe that's just me and my inability to contour.
Makeup Revolution, Revolution Brow Tint.
So what happened here was, I made a mistake.
I knew it wouldn't be pencil
but I thought it'd be like gel or something else.
Not... a semi permanent tint.
Here we go, now we're in focus.
Okay, I accidentally bought a semi-permanent brow thing
in this vegan challenge.
But sure, feck it,
it means I won't have to do my eyebrows every day I suppose.
I have to start with a clean brow, which I have.
I then have to apply to brow to create desired shape
and leave to develop for two hours.
So I put it on, completely forgot it was on,
left it on for way too long and then took it off.
So it's hours later and Alex just,
we watched the Fyre Festival Netflix and I've...
Just pulled out a couple of eyelashes, oh my god.
And I had a glass of wine
and then he was like your eyebrows are really dark
and I was like uh-oh, better go peel this stuff off
and I'm after pulling out some eyelashes,
oh my god I'm actually pulling out more eyebrows.
Oh my god are my eyebrows coming off?
They were pulling my eyebrows off.
I went like this, and eyebrows,
that's just eyebrow stuff
but a minute ago two eyebrow hairs
actually came off in my hand.
Okay, how do they look?
I got most of the stuff peeled off.
Concerning amount of eyebrow hair came out with it,
but I still have eyebrows, that's all that matters.
One is darker than the other.
That's 'cause more eyebrow hair came out with that one.
But that seems all right.
I should be able to deal with that for about three days.
Mine were like, very lightly tinted.
Like, you'd get a better go of it drawing them on.
It's like I don't have to do this now for three days.
Not true.
The very first time I took off my makeup the next day,
the eyebrows came with it, so this product is terrible.
Again, it could just be the brand because it's so cheap,
I don't know, I'm sorry.
I suck at this.
Makeup Revolution, Revolution Rainbow Highlighter.
I like this.
I've previously had a rainbow highlighter that was stripes.
Kind of prefer that, because you can get a flat brush
and you can take all the color at once
and then you can actually put a rainbow on your cheek.
Looks stupid, but I like it.
This one, you kind of have to sweep the brush into it
and then it just ends up being blue highlighter
which I have a palette of,
because I bought it from Jeffrey Star
because he could literally sell me rain, I'm from Ireland.
Makeup Revolution Revolution Retro Luxe Lip Kit in Waiting.
So close.
Makeup Revolution Revolution Retro Luxe Metallic Lip Kit
in Waiting, nailed it.
Christ, they're not about
the easy to remember names, are they?
This was a lip contour kit with a liner and lip gloss.
It was meant to be metallic lip gloss
but it was completely see through lip gloss.
Yesterday I used this lip color
but this stuff came together.
But this is see through, this is lip gloss,
so it doesn't make sense to use this with it.
So what I'm gonna try to do today
is I'm actually gonna use this with it
but then I'm gonna use Jeffrey Star Lip Ammo,
which I've look up and it is vegan and cruelty free.
I need a less opaque color on my lips.
This is completely see through.
So once you put the lip liner on,
it just looked like you'd forgotten
to fill in the rest of your lips.
So what I had to do was actually
color in my whole lip with the lip liner,
which is something that I've never done before
because I don't think you're supposed to do that.
Are you?
I don't know.
Feel free to correct me, MUAs,
because God knows, I'm terrible with makeup
and I don't know anything,
so I've been putting my concealer on first for years.
Long story short, also hated that.
And last but not least,
we have the Marvycorn palette.
I quite liked how pigmented the colors were
in this palette.
I quite liked the bronzer, highlighter and blusher.
Wearing them all together, though, they're all shimmer.
That's good for me, because I'm a girl
that loves a bit of shimmer,
like loves a bit of shimmer.
I think that most people wouldn't like to wear bronzer
and blusher, and highlighter that's shimmer
'cause it's like your face came from space.
This is my favorite product out of every product
that I bought for this challenge,
and this is a palette that I will continue to use
'cause I really enjoy it.
It is a little bit too shimmery
so I will mix it with other pallettes.
I would rather do my contour with matte brown stuff,
again, great at this.
I also didn't love the eyeshadows.
Just the texture of them didn't...
You know, might use other eye shadows.
I got a lot of this make up from Beauty Bay
and previously from Beauty Bay got a BH Cosmetics palette
and I thought, I wonder, I wonder
and I looked at it, for the Aurora Lights
and oh my god, it is vegan.
It's got the leaping bunny.
Okay, so I looked it up.
So the leaping bunny is certified cruelty free,
doesn't necessarily mean it's vegan
but I looked up the Aurora Lights palette
and it is vegan and cruelty free, sick.
I just wanted to show you this, 'cause this is not bad.
I wanted to show you this before I ruin it,
because I'm already planning on ruining it.
I like this.
People are gonna be like,
mmm, just 'cause you're wearing vegan makeup
doesn't mean you should put clown make up on,
but I quite like clown makeup.
I know you're not supposed to do a bold eye
and a bold lip, but I ignored that.
I like it.
So I experimented quite a bit
with that eyeshadow palette and loved it.
And I had no problem whatsoever
with the texture in the Aurora palette,
though again, I don't know if the vegan part
was actually affecting the texture
of any of the eyeshadows in the Marvycorn palette.
I think, perhaps, it was just that the Aurora palette
was slightly more expensive
and it was a dedicated eyeshadow palette
instead of a combo of trying to do everything.
Highlighter, blusher, bronzer and eyeshadow.
It could just be that the brands I ended up going with
are cheaper brands, and that's why they were shite.
Or it could be the vegan thing, like I don't know.
I don't know, I'm sorry.
So, just to be fair, I have some vegan makeup that's sick
but the makeup that I bought for this challenge was not it.
