![]() I think that’s the only way to describe it-it’s just, like, insane,” Easterling tells me of her rapid-paced rise to fame and public influence. In our 13-minute conversation, she somehow rattles off a half-hour’s worth of material, thanks to sheer enthusiasm. Off-camera, I’m surprised at the speed at which she speaks. Her PR promised me facetime to speak with her in the green room, though Easterling’s slinky turtleneck dress and eye shadow (not her own) are the only green in the airy white space where we sit on boxy club chairs. “I’m wearing Lash Snack, and then Brow Chow, and I had the Lip Quip on, but I’ve eaten like ten burgers, so that came off-but I have it in my bag,” she tells me in a singsongy cadence, describing what her glam squad applied for the party. Given the brand’s pandemic-era launch-first with makeup, now skin care, all under $25-this is the first in-person event for Easterling to meet the 50-ish vaccinated influencers and beauty editors in attendance. ![]() The multi-hyphenate phenom-a singer-dancer-actor whose TikTok stardom counts 84 million followers-has gathered an equally photogenic crew to celebrate Item Beauty, her talked-about cosmetics range that has just earned Sephora’s Clean seal. Or rather, a floral-strewn “soirée” on the Public Hotel’s terrace, overlooking the city’s skyline at sunset. There 's also no eyeliner (which I actually didn 't feel like I needed here, but want to point out regardless).īut again, no real complaints here.It’s Tuesday night, the kickoff of New York Fashion Week, and Addison Rae Easterling is having a ball. I think just one bold lip would have tied it together. I did find it tougher when taking my final look selfie. While I 'm all for the daytime vibe this line is going for, it would be nice if there had been the option to up the look from day to night. The only product I think should have been included in this first run is a bold lip. Of course, I wish there were a foundation thrown in the mix, but for a just-released line, it 's nice that they have this many products to choose from off the bat. The price point is, well, on-point, the quality seems to be solid and the formulas are made totally free of talc, parabens, phthalates and mineral oil. Especially given its first go, I really see no issues. No complaints there! See my final look below:īeing 100% honest, I totally recommend ITEM. The packaging is eye-catching and sturdy. But once I applied Tarte Shape Tape concealer to my eyes and followed it with a few swipes of the shadow, it actually stayed on and gave my eyes a major pop.īecause the line is still limited with inventory, it 's important for me to note that my look wouldn 't have been complete without Jafra Cosmetics ' Royal Jelly full-coverage foundation and Luxie Bronze and Glow makeup brush kit.Īll of ITEM 's products are easy to use, as well as easily transportable. And when I initially tried the shadows, I had low expectations when an attempted swatch on my arm wiped off easily. The eyebrow pencil and mascara blew me away (favorites!). Not because I didn 't believe in Addison and what she 's capable of, but more because the price point is relatively low and the brand caters to a younger, mass market. I 'll be completely honest and say I didn 't have extremely high hopes for the line. I didn 't end up using these, so I can 't comment on their effectiveness.Ī post shared by item beauty on at 11:55am PDT I 'm no contour expert, though I will say the formula is rich and doesn 't take much to go on strikingly.Ĭoming in four different shades, these multipurpose blot, brighten and blur powders come with an applicator brush and divided area for the formulas. I went with the lighter of the two (Mood Vibez) for my look. These dark bronzer-contour duos come in two different options. For my trial, I went with Coin Toss (Deep Brown), and I was pleasantly surprised by how long it stayed on. Placed in a tube of creamy formula, the easy-to-apply shadows come in six sparkly, neutral shades. It glides on effortlessly, fills in those oh-so-lovely gaps in the brows and comes in four shades (ranging from warm blonde to deep brunette). The ultra-fine brow definer is the absolute best. Despite its slightly tinted orange formula, it goes on clear.Įnter: my favorite product of the collection. It has some pretty solid staying power, though if you 're looking for a bold hue, you 've come to the wrong place. Like the aforementioned product, the gloss only comes in one shade at the moment: Come Thru. Here 's the completed eye look and how the mascara is applied effortlessly ? ![]() Today I 'm doing a little step-by-step of my experience trying 's makeup line for the very first time. ![]()
