Tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip Gloss just launched in a trio set available exclusively at QVC and I got all excited because I do love a shiny lipstick or a stick lipgloss! If these are half as good as Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Quench Lip Rescue (but hopefully not as melty) I’ll be a happy girl indeed.

I really don’t need them right now because hello, face masks! But hey, I was walking around the house two weeks ago in purple lipstick and my friend Facetimed me and was like, “Wait, where are you going?” Nowhere! I’m just over here swiffering the floors with Urban Decay Pandemonium on my lips. So, why not right? We all need to keep up some sense of normal even if it’s wearing our favorite lipstick inside the house!

Plus these are super hydrating so why not? The three pack includes three shades of Maracuja Juicy Lips with a click pen packaging. These are were created with a formula that melts upon contact with lips providing glossy, moisturizing color!

There are two different three shade sets available in the following shades:

• Soft Pinks: Clear, Rose, and Raspberry
• Berrylicious: Strawberry, Watermelon, and Hibiscus

The set is $35 or 3 Easy Pays of $11.67 at QVC.

If these are good I hope they make them permanent and available in more shades. I love the Sea Quench formula but it melts sooooooo quickly! It’s not an ideal lip product for toting around in the warmer weather. Hopefully, that isn’t the case with this formula!

Remember when we were all obsessed with Philosophy Shower Gels? Or was I the only one hoarding them away like the apocalypse was about to go down? One of the best things about the changing seasons was the fact that Philosophy would slide into my beauty world with some new scented shower gel. There were Fall ones, Halloween ones, Valentine’s Day ones, Christmas ones, it was such an amazing time for shower gels in

I’m still trying to figure out why I liked them so much as the scents were so fleeting. It was great if you just wanted to smell like a cupcake in the shower but I’m that girl that wants the scent to linger and I have no issues with my hair and body smelling like a cinnamon bun outside of the shower. My best friend always tells me, “Darling, why do you always smell good enough to eat?” Thank you so much I like gourmands and I won’t apologize for it ha!

Philosophy Cinnamon Buns and Bubbly Shower Gel still makes a guest starring appearance in my bathroom but I sure do yearn for the days when they did all those great seasonal scents! If you’re feeling a bit nostalgic this Philosophy 16 Piece Scent-Sational Shower Gel Collection might bring back good memories! It includes 16 x 6 oz Philosophy 3-in-1 Shower Gels that can be used as shampoo, shower gel, or bubble bath! The set is $79.94 with free shipping or 4 Easy Pays of $19.99.

Scents include:

• Fresh Cream
• Lemon Custard
• Apricots and Cream
• Senorita Margarita
• Passion Fruit
• Bubbly
• Cinnamon Buns
• Orange Cocoa and Cream
• Wondrous Winter
• White Chocolate Hazelnut
• Praline Crunch
• Snow Angel
• Sparkling Holly Berries
• Christmas Cookie
• Peppermint Stick
• Sugar Plum Fairy

The set has some of my favorites like Bubbly, Fresh Cream, Senorita Margarita, and Cinnamon Buns!

The Philosophy 16 Piece Scent-Sational Shower Gel Collection is available now at QVC.

Which was your favorite Philosophy Shower Gel from back in the day?

What’s cooler than the Wet n Wild Pac Man Collection? That would be the new My Melody and Kuromi Makeup Collection! Ahhhh! I’m so excited! I’m a complete kid so this My Melody and Kuromi Full Collection Box is screaming at me to snag it. It didn’t take me too long to hit submit on this and buy it. I’ve always been a Sanrio fan and Hello Kitty is so my jam. I have t-shirts, I have purses, I have school supplies, hell, I have have underwear with Sanrio characters. I’m not sorry about any of this. I remember when I was in like the 4th grade and my friend had one of those incredibly cool Hello Kitty pencil cases! I begged my mother for one.

Honestly though, as much as I love Hello Kitty one of my fav Sanrio characters is My Melody and of course, her arch enemy, Kuromi! Wet n Wild hasn’t released the collection individually as of yet but this My Melody and Kuromi Full Collection Box features the entire collection. It contains two different eyeshadow palettes with sixteen shades each that represent My Melody’s colors and Kuromi’s in the other. It also includes two shades of Liquid Matte Lip Color, two glosses, an eyeshadow brush, face brush, makeup bag, and a BlushLighter Palette much like the Wet n Wild Pac-Man High Score Blush Palette.

I’m not sure about Kuromi’s colors but I’m loving the pretty pinks in My Melody’s Eyeshadow Palette! This was a no brainer pick up for me! I can’t wait to get it. At some point, I’m sure that Wet n Wild will release the collection individually as well but if you love My Melody the entire Wet n Wild My Melody and Kuromi Full Collection Box for Summer 2020 is available now at Ulta for $65.

What’s your ride or die makeup item? Concealer for me! And Hard Candy Sheer Envy Bake, Brighten & Set Loose Powder to set it (yes, I love Ben Nye but if you can believe it I use Hard Candy more).

It’s a bad time to introduce a lip balm but speaking of ride or due products here’s the new E.L.F. Ride or Die Lip Balm that launched for Summer 2020. These $5 lip balms are available in four shade selections with a vegan, cruelty-free formula. They contain an infusion of rose oil and collage and give lips a sheer wash color with a pop of shine and a heavy dose of moisture to repair dry, cracked lips!

Shades include:

• Mighty Mint (clear)
• Boss Berry (sheer red berry)
• Tough Cookie (sheer warm caramel)
• Just Peachy (sheer orange peach)

Are you thinking what I’m thinking? Dewy blush! Do you think they’ll be that pigmented? Maybe…! We’ll have to try that out!

E.L.F. Ride or Die Lip Balm are popping up now on the brand’s website.

Wakey, wakey! Happy Monday!

Summer is here and the humidity is setting in. Gotham is going through some weird weather where it’s beautiful one minute and suddenly we’re having a tornado the next! Yesterday, was a bit rainy and the humidity quickly set in as well as some sun but suddenly, out of no where, BOOM! A big old gusty thunderstorm. I managed to enjoy the weekend anyway rain or not. It’s hard doing all the things you want to do when you have to social distant. I still haven’t seen any of my friends nor my parents and it’s going on four months now. Facetime, text, and Zoom time are about the extend of the personal contact I have with friends and my parents/family. I managed to sneak into Joann’s this weekend and they had a ton of Fall stuff which brought me endless amounts of joy but sadly, I got paranoid as I felt like there were too many people inside the store so I ran out ha…! I also did a little strawberry picking which was a bit sad as I normally do it with my two best friends every year. We always love going together! I would have dragged my boyfriend but he’s back in CA working so I went alone. Sniff! But hey, the strawberries were still delicious even without my besties.

None the less, Summer is creeping in and even though it’s not my season of choice I’m happy to see it arrive as I feel like it was a really, really, really longer Winter.

It’s Monday so, I’m sleepy and zombie-like but as always productive! There’s very little room for procrastination today. I’ve been swamped with work since I got up this morning and there’s no room for sitting around and not getting stuff done. I’m almost half way through my list for the day and it’s only 11AM (this will post is scheduled to go live later today at 2PM so at this point I’m sure I’ll almost be complete with it by that point).

It’s a new week and there’s plenty of new things to love on this bright, sunny Morning!

Lemons
It’s Summer! Which means I’ve hauled out all my lemon-y Summer home decor. My kitchen has exploded with lemon and lemonade everything. I’ve hauled out some of my favorite Rae Dunn pieces like my Lemonade Pitcher to pair up with these cute glittery lemons I got at Wally World. Today’s love list is filled with the tart goodness of lemons! If I may might I recommend snagging this adorable Lemonade Bird House? My friend texts me last week about it and I quickly snagged it online! I actually didn’t use it outside. I popped it on a shelf in my kitchen! It’s looks adorable with my other lemon themed items.

Tony Moly Eye Everything
My eyes feel extra dry lately so I’ve been trying out some new eye creams and serums. I picked up the new Tony Moly Moisture Boost Cooling Algae Eye Serum (on sale at Ulta) and I’m quite loving it! Great formula that absorbs easily and leaves the skin under my eyes plumped and hydrated! They also have new Moisture Boost Hydrogel Eye Patches which are pretty awesome as well!

INC.redible For The First Time Bounce Blush
Does anyone have a small face? I’m a fluffy girl but my face is apparently small? Because when I wear a mask my entire face is cover except my eyes. So why am I wearing blush!? Eh, I do it to feel pretty. I’m really into the little $10 INC.redible For The First Time Bounce Blush in Natural Finish! It’s a pretty apricot shade that gives my cheeks a healthy flush! No one can see it but it doesn’t transfer to my mask thankfully and it’s super pigmented so a little goes a really long way! Do love!

Duping Rae Dunn
You might know I’m a little (a lot) bit obsessed with Rae Dunn. It’s a serious problem ha…! My friends and family (never mind my BF that just mentally rolls his eyes when I bring a new piece into the house) are always asking me, “Why is everything labeled!?” Listen, I like things that say EAT, DRINK, YUM, it’s cute ok!?!? 😀 My new hobby, thank you quarantine, is creating Rae Dunn dupes. I found an Etsy seller, who’s awesome, that does Rae Dunn labels and I buy different canisters and such and label them however, I want. For example, I recently purchased a candy jar from Amazon and filled it with dishwasher pods and slammed a “DO THE DISHES” label on it. I also created one for my laundry room that says “WASH UP”. Am I a dork? Why, yes, I am! But it’s the little things that bring joy 🙂

Carol’s Daughter Goddess Strength Haircare
Carol’s Daughter has a new collection if hair care called Goddess Strength which contains castor oil to strengthen hair. Did I mention it smells amazing!? The Leave-In Cream is my new favorite way to detangle my hair! Love!

Do you have a love list?
