I know many, many, many of you have been lemming the Toast of Tints Lip Tint Trio I reviewed for you a few weeks ago.

Well, it’s finally available!

This is a haul of three pretty blushes from Bare Minerals housed in golden clutch with a Blush Brush. I think what makes me want it so much is the pretty goldtone caps and brush handles. Oooo shiny!

I gotta say at first glance bareMinerals Bare Luxury 8 Piece Collection is kinda strange. I think we all thought the palette included with this was a little mismatched and strange…I mean a soft golden bronze with a delicate shade of lilac? What in the world is BE thinking?

But I discovered the genius behind this set after using it…!

Take a look!

Word on the street is the Bare Minerals Ready Eyeshadow 2.0 Palette are quite the hit. And really why wouldn’t they be? I have my little stash of loose mineral shadows from BE but let’s face it they are the fall out demons from hell. I hate having to clean up fall out because hello, how impossible. I’ve tried tape tricks, powder under the eye trick, etc…etc…even eyeshadow shields which are sometimes a gift from the beauty tool Gods in these situations but fall out, such a pain.

Bare Minerals makes some might fine shadows but having them pressed up into a compact, well, that’s the best thing I’ve experienced in the beauty world since the introduction of Urban Decay Primer Potion.

Let’s take a peek and find out what’s so fab about ‘em!
