Smashbox Baked Cheek & Highlighter Blossom Review and Swatches

Smashbox Blossom Baked Cheek and Highlighter 1 Smashbox Baked Cheek & Highlighter Blossom Review and Swatches

Smashbox’s Fall Collection, Masquerade should be at your local Sephora. Have you seen it? Haul any of it? Wanting to? What did you think so far?

Along with the release Smashbox Masquerade Baked Fusion Soft Lights Palette was introduced which is a very pretty palette however a little overly done since Clinique has similar palettes and heck Smashbox has done and redone this style of highlighter before.

But…

We aren’t afraid of things that have been redone and I’m always of the mentality, as are most of you, that one can never have too many pretty powders.

Which is why I wanted to introduce you to Smashbox Blossom Baked Cheek & Highlighter which could prove to be a nice investment.

Use It, Stash It, or Trash It and Sex, Marry, Kill

Use Trash Stash Use It, Stash It, or Trash It and Sex, Marry, Kill

Have you ever played Sex, Marry, Kill? Obviously, my best friend Jai and I have way too much time our hands since we often play it.

Obviously easy to figure out if you never played.

Someone presents a list of three people in your life or celebs and you decide if you want to have sex with them, marry them, or kill them off.

Fun times right?

I had a good one recently which consisted of Neil Gaiman, Taylor Lautner, and Albert Einstein….can you guess who I had sex with, who I married, and who I killed?

Ha!

Spoilers! If I told you!

So why am I telling you this? Because my variation of the game involves cosmetics. I’ll give you three options and you tell me if you’d keep the item and use it, stash it away in your beauty vault and never use it because it’s just so damn pretties, or trash it in the makeup graveyard!

Up for a little gaming action?

Smashbox O-Gloss Noir Review and Swatches

Smashbox O Gloss Noir 1 Smashbox O Gloss Noir Review and Swatches

Ok, I think I’m finally out of denial. I’m come to the conclusion I can’t do plummy, black gothy lips. Fresh Sugar Plum Tinted Lip Treatment proved it to me, and Bobbi Brown Black Velvet is busy taking me down and telling me how I so can’t do the vampy lip look, and now Smashbox O-Gloss Noir may be proving that this Fall trend is just not for the likes of Muse’s like me.

Stila Mandarin Mist Eau de Parfum Review

by the Muse on September 2, 2010

Question, what do you guys smell like right now? Just don’t say cheese or sweat, I’ll gag…! Ha!

No seriously what’s your scent of the moment? Right now I’m kinda sorta obsessed with Viva La Juicy Perfume. I stopped wearing it for a while but suddenly it became my fav go to in August.

I’m also obsessing over trying the new S by Shakira Perfume, AWOOOOOOOOOOO! I read a review and it was all about the rave, so yeah, I need to try some, stat.

Speaking of fragrances and such, remember Stila Creme Bouquet Perfume that stuff proves impossible to track down. I have a tiny spritz left and I’m savoring it. Stila needs to get on board with creating more fragrances. Hell am I old if I admit to remembering when it came out!?

Speaking of, I recently got my hands on Stila Mandarin Mist which never tempted me until it got marked down….

Benefit Femme Metale 2010 Benefit Femme Metale

Benefit Femme Metale could attest to the brand growing an edgy backbone. What’s this? A “precious metal” eye makeup kit? With liners that look very Urban Decay-like.

Very interesting and very exciting too!
