Missha All Around Safe Block Essence Sun SPF 45 Review

Missha All Around Safe Block Essence Sun

The Asian market has SPF and sun protection formulas perfected. Missha All Around Safe Block Essence Sun SPF45/PA+++ ($13.99) is proof positive that Asia makes a FAR better and superior sun protection base than anything you can get here in the US.

I typically prefer Japanese and Korean SPF myself due to their texture and ease of use. Anything I find here in the US is typically so greasy, heavy, and smells god awful.

Seriously, try out Missha All Around Safe Block Essence Sun and prepare to be delighted!

Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipliner Review & Swatches

Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipliner

The new Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick that I reviewed yesterday launched today along with the new Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipliners!

I’m not really a lipliner girl, are you? I typically skip over it but if you’re lips are drier, aging, or you’re using a lipstick that likes to road trip around your face lipliner is always an excellent way to keep it locked into place and prevent it from feathering.

Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream Cotton Fix Review & Swatches

Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream Cotton Fix Summer 2013

Etude House updates its Precious Mineral BB Cream this Spring with a new Cotton Fix formula. The Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream Cotton Fix has an SPF 30 and a fluffy, silky texture which supposedly feels as soft as cotton.

I didn’t really love the original formula of Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream so I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about Cotton Fix but I decided to give a whirl.

Here’s a few thoughts!

Color by Benefit Ultra Plush Lip Gloss Spring 2013

Color by Benefit Makeup Collection is a new range permanent range of glosses, shadows, and more that launched this Spring. Benefit Ultra Plush Lip Gloss happens to be apart of this collection and may sound familiar to you as I raved them when they originally launched the glosses a little bit ago in matching shades of their popular powder blushes.

I’m happy, actually SUPER happy that they have these available in a range of new shades. I simply fell in love with the original formula and knew I was going to adore these.

Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick Review & Swatches

Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick Summer 2013

Bare Minerals delights this Summer with a new range of Marvelous Moxie Lipsticks ($18) and Lipliners. Marvelous Moxie Lipstick are available in 18 vibrant shades and have a rich, pigment packed formula that glide on like a butter but have the coverage of a lipstick.

Extending the Marvelous Moxie Collection from mere Lipglosses to these new Lipsticks and Lipliners is possibly one of the best releases I’ve seen from Bare Minerals in a while. Lipstick is an unexpected treat from our friends at Bare Minerals since it sort of kinda remains an untapped product source for them.

Bare Minerals The Statement Piece Ready Eyeshadow 4.0 Review & Swatches

Bare Minerals Ready Eyeshadow 4.0 The Statement Piece

Bare Minerals Ready Eyeshadow 4.0 Palette in The Statement Piece is a shade selection that was introduced in the second Bare Minerals Beautifully Brilliant Collection Set that launched at QVC a few months ago.

If you didn’t sign up for the auto ship on this set you’ll have a little bit of a hard time getting your hands on this palette. Mind you, it isn’t impossible as Evil-bay is always is a good way to go. At some point I imagine Bare Minerals will go ahead and introduce this palette to their general catalog.
