Makeup With Attitude: Rude Cosmetics Now at Adults Skate Too

Meet Rude Cosmetics – Brand with an Attitude

Why be nice when you can be RUDE? Rude Cosmetics was founded in 2016 in Los Angeles with the mission of offering cutting-edge, high-quality makeup at comfortable prices. This indie brand prides itself on encouraging creativity and bold self-expression – in their words, it’s “Makeup With an Attitude®” that lets you unleash your inner fierce self without regrets. Beyond the edgy vibe, Rude is also 100% cruelty-free (they never test on animals) and features many vegan-friendly products, so you can rock that glittery look with a clear conscience. In short, Rude Cosmetics brings vibrant colors, serious quality, and a playful spirit to the beauty scene – all at prices that won’t break the bank.

AST ✕ Rude – A Match Made in Sparkle Heaven

We at Adults Skate Too (AST) are beyond excited to introduce Rude Cosmetics to our lineup of skating gear and accessories. AST is all about empowering adult skaters with high-quality, fun, and functional products, and Rude fits perfectly into that vision. Think about it: figure skating and sparkles go hand-in-hand, and Rude’s products deliver insane amounts of beautiful glitter along with serious performance.

As soon as our first shipment arrived, we couldn’t resist trying them out ourselves. The verdict? Super impressive! From the moment we swatched the palettes and dabbed on the shimmers, we were in love. The pigmentation is bold, the staying power is no joke (these products last through long practice sessions), and the packaging… oh my gosh, so cute! 😍 Rude’s aesthetic ranges from manga/anime-themed palettes to a faux “spell book” eyeshadow set, adding an extra layer of fun to your makeup routine. And while the look is playful, the quality is professional – richly pigmented shadows, blinding highlighters, and glitters that don’t quit.

The best part? No special promo needed – Rude’s price points are incredibly affordable for the quality, meaning you get maximum sparkle for your buck. We love that you can treat yourself to a new glitter palette without feeling guilty, because most items are well under $20 each (many under $10!).

In short, AST and Rude both believe in bringing out your bold, confident self – whether on the ice or off – so this partnership is a natural fit.

Sparkle That Shines On (and off) the Ice

The “Sin of Glittony” pressed glitter palette features 15 dazzling pans (each named after a playful “sin”), perfect for bold sparkle looks on and off the ice. This palette is a prime example of Rude’s commitment to high-impact shine and imaginative packaging – note the unicorn on the cover of the 8th Deadly Sin edition! These glitters have a unique gel-like base, which means they spread easily, stay put through an entire skating program, and don’t feel itchy or messy like some loose glitters can.

If you’re a skater who’s struggled with chunky craft glitter falling into your eyes or all over your costume, Rude’s formula will be a game-changer. The glitter goes on smoothly and dries down nicely, so you can focus on your routine instead of worrying about fallout. And that staying power? We can attest that after several routines (and yes, a bit of sweat), the sparkle was still going strong 💪. Whether you’re under the spotlight in a competition or just want to shine at the rink’s disco night, these products are built to perform as hard as you do.

It’s not just the pure glitter palettes that impress. Rude’s shimmers and highlighters also bring serious glow that’s ideal for skating shows and everyday glam alike. The Manga Collection Twinkle Twinkle Highlighter, for example, has a “soft and bouncy” texture that practically melts into the skin, leaving a weightless, non-powdery sparkle. That means you get a gorgeous iridescent sheen on your cheeks or eyes without any caking – perfect for up-close moments and photos.

We also love the versatility: many of Rude’s shimmery products can pull double-duty, going from practice to podium. You can wear a subtle wash of shimmer for a day at the rink, then layer it on heavier for that showtime bling that catches every flash of the camera. In short, whether you’re a general sparkle lover or specifically need makeup that stands up to the demands of skating, Rude has you covered.

Our Top Rude Picks Now in Stock at AST 💖

• Sin of Glittony Glitter Palette – This 15-color palette is pure glitter heaven. It’s packed with bold, iridescent pressed glitters named after sins (from “Greed” to “Lust”). The colors are intensely pigmented and sparkle from every angle. We love how this palette lets you create outrageously fun looks – you can pat a single shade over your regular shadow for a pop of glitter, or go full glam with a multi-color glitter bomb! Despite the mega-watt shine, the formula feels comfortable. No chunky glitter fallout here – just high-impact sparkle with attitude. Pro tip: tap these glitters on with a finger for maximum payoff, and you won’t even need a separate primer.
• The Spell Book Eyeshadow Palette – A magical palette that literally looks like a mini book of spells. Inside you’ll find a mesmerizing mix of richly pigmented mattes and shimmers that blend like a dream. Each “Spell Book” has its own color story (ours is the “Lust” edition, full of romantic pinks, purples, and smoky hues). There’s even a sparkle shade (“Witchy”) to add a touch of enchantment. Plus, it’s cruelty-free, vegan, and paraben-free so you can cast your makeup spells guilt-free!
• Manga Collection “Twinkle Twinkle” Highlighter – This highlighter is from Rude’s manga-inspired line, and it’s as fun as it sounds. Each shade has an adorable name and manga artwork on the compact. The multichrome shimmer delivers a multifaceted sparkle that shifts color in the light. The “soft and bouncy” powder feels almost creamy, gliding on and melting into your skin for a weightless glow. Never chalky or glittery – just pure, smooth shine. You can even tap it on your eyelids as an eyeshadow topper for extra twinkle.
• Virginish Lip Glow – For a more low-key everyday sparkle, Virginish Lip Glow is a unique color-enhancing lip balm that reacts with your skin to give a personalized pink tint. Goes on clear, and your lips flush to a natural rosy glow within seconds. Packed with nourishing ingredients (like shea butter and meadowfoam seed oil) to keep your lips soft while you shine. Wear it alone or layer over lipstick for a hint of shimmer. Everyday staple with a subtle sparkle. And at around $5, it’s an absolute steal!
• Moon Halo Face & Body Shimmer (Milky Way) – For head-to-toe sparkle, Moon Halo is your go-to. A loose face and body shimmer powder that you can dust anywhere for instant fairy-dust effect. We carry the “Milky Way” shade, a translucent pearly glitter that looks stellar on all skin tones. Mix into body lotion, dab in hair, or sweep on with a brush for a magical sparkle. Fine shimmer, never chunky, and gentle on skin. If you’d bathe in pixie dust given the chance, you’ll love Moon Halo. ✨

…and that’s just a sampling! We’re also stocking other gems like Chibi Manga eyeshadow palettes (mini 9-color palettes), Chibi Jelly Lip & Cheek Tints (adorable multi-use stains), and juicy Sparkle Lip Oils that give lips a glassy shine while conditioning. Each product brings something special – whether it’s extreme sparkle, cute-as-heck packaging, or a clever formula – and we can’t wait for you to try them.
