The new E.L.F. Studio Baked Eyeshadow Palette seemed mighty similiar to Sephora’s Moonshadow Baked Palette when I originally saw it. So I took some time out in this review to compare my Sephora In the Nude Moonshadow Baked Palette to the E.L.F. Studio Baked Eyeshadow Palette in California and I think you’ll be quite surprised at the outcome.

Diamonds, Gold, and now Rubies? Avon Ultra Color Rich Rubies Lipstick ($4.99) is a newly launched limited edition lipstick that’s supposed infused with real rubies…!

Rubies are not, I absolutely loved the past formulations from Avon that included 24K Gold, Diamonds, etc…so I’m def hauling some of these.

Urban Decay Whiskey/Zero 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil ($12) is available now as a single purchase. If it was up to me all 24/7 Eye Pencils would be dual ended. Am I right? I can so get on board with the twelve dollar price tag and having two colors in one pencil rather than dishing out $19 for one eh?

A few thoughts and swatches after the jump!

Tarte Airblush Maracuja Blush ($25) is now available in three shade selections directly from Tarte. Originally this blush launched in the Miracle of Maracuja QVC Today Special Value Set.

Those who didn’t indulge in this set will be happy to know they can now purchase the blush separately.

We’ve already looked at the Enchanted Queen, The Arty Muse, and The Wise Mystic, and here’s the fourth and final L’Oreal Project Runway Fall 2012 Color Collection entitled The Seductive Temptress.

L’Oreal calls the Seductive Temptress an unexpected, venomous look but really it’s probably the most wearable of the shade selections since it contains some nice nude, natural shades in the eyeshadow palette.

We’re on a roll today with the L’Oreal Project Runway Fall 2012 Collection which features four brand new color collections entitled The Enchanted Queen, The Arty Muse, The Wise Mystic, and The Seductive Temptress.

The Enchanted Queen is probably the most traditional shade collection in this release as it focuses on a smoky eye, red lips, and tips.
