“ | the on your collar plumping gloss is one of my top three r.e.m. beauty products. it has great pigment, a delicious minty vanilla scent, and the perfect, most plumping tingling sensation. this formula probably took the longest to perfect and i am really happy with the result. these glosses are also very pigmented so they can be paired with a liner, lipstick, stain or worn on just their own. | ” |

"On Your Collar" Matte Lipstick[]
“ | the products in the on your collar product family pay homage to connie francis’s song “lipstick on your collar” which i loved growing up. this product’s design is one of my favorites - i wanted to show the shades of the lipsticks through the packaging, almost like an astronaut’s helmet. the formula is pigmented and matte, yet still feels incredibly hydrating and smooth. | ” |

"Eclipse" Cheek & Lip Stick[]

"On Your Collar" Liquid Lipstick[]
“ | meet our on your collar liquid lipstick! i love these colors and especially this formula so much. team r.e.m. beauty worked so diligently to create a liquid lip that doesn’t transfer, is gorgeously matte but not drying. often when i use liquid lipsticks my main concern is that they dry my lips out so so much so that’s something we wanted to keep in mind and make sure to conquer while creating this. make sure to exfoliate and prep your lips with our everything nice lip balm for the most lovely result! | ” |

"Midnight Shadows" Metallic Gel Eye Shadow[]
“ | midnight shadows metallic gel eyeshadow is one of my favorite products in ch. 2! they can be layered on top of our midnight shadows eyeshadows or worn alone on the lids, or really anywhere on your face and body. they are super metallic, pigmented, lightweight & my favorite part is the hydrating, cooling sensation it gives when you apply it. that's one of the standout qualities of this product for me. it’s so thrilling that we were able to create something as pigmented and shiny using all vegan formulas —it's everything! | ” |
–Ariana's vision |
"Practically Permanent" Lip Stain Marker[]
“ | the practically permanent lip marker is another one of my favorite products in this first drop. i’ve always loved lip stains because i feel they last the longest throughout a busy day and also appear most natural. this formula is super pigmented so you can apply it generously for a bolder, statement lip or more sparingly for a more natural looking, subtle tint. it looks beautiful on its own, but my personal favorite combination that i’ve been wearing all year is this lip marker and the utmost importance lip gloss. my favorite pairing in chapter one! | ” |
