Musings of a Muse

Nude girls gather round, that sounded a bit perverse but you know what I mean…all the ladies (and lads) that enjoy themselves a nude look with a little flair will adore the new Mark on the Dot Eye Color Compact which features nine shades of metallic eyeshadows in an array of nude, natural shades of brown, plum, and taupe.

Shall we have a look?

The Smashbox Click You’re It Holiday Eye Palette will probably bring back a memory or two from Holiday 2010 as it’s pretty much a very similar palette from last year’s release the only difference being the new packaging.

I don’t have last year’s palette handy but I believe the shades are all different however the packaging, concept, and selection of products is pretty much standard from holidays past.

If you can get jump over the rehash hurdle here you can definitely see the potential of the Click It You’re It Holiday Eye Palette because it’s actually quite a well done selection of colors.

Girl Scout Cookies are indeed made by the Devil…well, technically, probably his minions since he’s a bit busy to go around cooking cookies. I imagine Dean and Sammy Winchester had their turn at the old Girl Scout Cookie assembly line down in hell while they were visiting and none other than Crowley was cracking the whip while they put the finishing touches on a Thin Mint.

Mmmm mmm tasty! But we should always fight back against the evil of Girl Scout Cookies because they are loaded with sugar, fat, carbs, and possibly Winchester hair (in that case I’d eat and savor it, mad fan girl moment).

But no worries about calories in a Girl Scout Cookie Lip Smackers, those were created by Makeup Gods thus they lack all the bad stuff.

Jane Iredale’s traditional Chocoholicks Set gets a revamp this year in a new palette.

These normally come in individual balm pots but this year the Jane Iredale Chocoholicks Lip Set is a palette!

This palette features four chocolaty shades in a single slip compact with a retractable lip brush.

Includes:

• Blood Orange is a shimmering copper gloss pairing the flavors of deep, dark chocolate and zingy blood orange.
• Espresso is a sultry, rich brown gloss tasting of bold, smooth mocha.

• Chili Pepper is a wearable red gloss combining sweetness and spice with the flavors of dark chocolate infused with exotic chilies.

I need it!

Wet n Wild has introduced four, limited edition Glitter Kit Eyeshadow Palettes for Holiday 2011. I’ve already reviewed one of these for which was the Main Street Glitz color selection.

I also picked up Tinsel Mall which is a complete reverse of Main Street Glitz as it sports cooler tones versus the warmer shades in Main Street Glitz.

I admit the first thing I thought off when I saw the NYX Butt Naked Eyes Makeup Palette was Will Ferrell in Old School, “We’re Streaking, We’re Streaking!”

But listen, the Butt Naked Eyes Makeup Palette is a hell of alot classier than Will Ferrell’s azz! For serious.

Let’s take a peek!

Lush UK had their traditional Forum Party this week and like any party they have pre-Christmas it includes several exclusive Forum Fragrances!

Yay!

I’m not nearly as active as I used to be on the forums but I’ve been ordering the exclusive fragrances for at least 8 years or so now since they are unique blends that Lush doesn’t normally do.

If you’re looking for great sets to haul during the Sephora VIB Event might I suggest the new Make Up For Ever Best of Make Up Forever Set?

Let me tell you, Sephora JC Penny is the work of the debil. OMG! The sales associates in their are just a nightmare. Very rude. I’m not going to get into a huge story but a mere return turned into an incredible fiasco recently when I stopped in plus asking anyone, anything about any product in there is a big mistake…they are just rude.

But I can be tempted to venture into a Sephora at JC Penny if it means I can lay my hands on the new Make Up For Ever Wild & Chic Eyeshadow Palette.

Want it?
