Clarins Everlasting Foundation Review and Swatches

Not so long ago, in the near distant past, the Muse was every so delighted when she heard about Clarins Everlasting Foundation. This brand new foundation is dubbed “everlasting” for a reason as it promises 15 hours of staying powder. For the Muse finding a foundation that doesn’t oxidize and lasts on her face for 15 hours is equivalent to discovering the holy grail and owning the Hope Diamond. I mean imagine it…you put your foundation on in the morning and it lasts and lasts and lasts. Never again will your foundation slip away, melt off, or just disappear. Yes, indeed this sounds like what I need in my makeup life.

Estee Lauder Love Your Lips Collection Review

Happy Monday! And most important of all Happy 1st of the Month! Since Valentine’s Day is but two weeks away I thought I’d give you the good word on the new Estee Lauder Love Your Lips Lip Collection. How fitting is this collection? We just discussed brands introducing Valentine’s Day Collections a few weeks ago and now this pops up. It kinda has a lovey dovey romantic feel to it thanks to the colors and cute details on the lipstick so the Muse dubs it perfect for V-Day!

Korres Golden Goddess Collection Review and Swatches

God I love you Korres, have I told you that lately? Korres continues on it’s righteous path to affordable beauty nirvana with the new Korres Golden Goddess Collection. I think they need to rename these little kits to “Korres Snack Packs”. Remember when you were a kid and your mum would seal up some great snack in a ziplock bag? I mean seriously it was like gold when you unzipped it. It could have been stale Cheerios but that ziplock bag somehow made it special.

Korres Golden Goddess Collection 11

That’s Korres for ya. The line has really geared towards slapping together a bunch of great treats, stuffing it into a ziploc bag, and selling it for some crazy cool price. Of course as makeup junkies we all get hyper and excited to get more for less right?

You get more, alot more, for alot less with the new Korres Golden Goddess Collection.
