I’m the Only One Sitting Around Muttering to Myself, “Erika Jayne Who?”

It’s a young girl’s (or guy’s) game my friends! Because the Too Faced Pretty Mess Collection is upcoming shortly which is a collaboration between the brand and Erika Jayne who’s apparently Jerrod Blandino’s bestie (this man has has more best friends than I have nude eyeshadows) and of course, I’m the oddball that has to google who Erika Jayne is. Am I getting too old I don’t know anything at all about current pop culture? After listening to Roller Coaster for all of 15 seconds I had to go clean my ears out with soap and water. I’m sorry Erika, I can’t sing which means I shouldn’t judge but your song just wasn’t doing it for me.

Anyway, after doing a google search I think Erika’s a singer and a Housewife of Beverly Hills. I’m actually still not entirely sure who she is because I live under a rock, in a cave, with a TV that’s tuned to PBS most days.

That being said let’s chat your makeup collection that includes a Pat the Puss All Over Body Shimmer. I mean who doesn’t want to buy that right? The name alone has me all like, “I need this in my life!” (said no one ever).

Sigh. It just keeps getting worst and worst for Tarte and Too Faced.

Please guys, turn it around.

They aren’t kidding when they called this a pretty mess.

P.S. Hey, some good news! At least the eyeshadow palette looks cute.

4 stars out of 5

Sunset Fire, Follow the Sun, and Burnished Sienna are three new shades featured in the Stila All Fired Up Glitter & Glow Eyeshadow Set that’s available for Spring 2019. These shades are exclusively available in the All Fired Up Set and not yet available as individual shades but I have hopes Stila will at some point launch them as full-sizes as there are at least two I’d repurchase if they became available as individual shades!

The shades would probably work best as a Summer launch and not so much a Spring one but as a lover of the Glitter & Glow Eyeshadow formula I could careless. I just want more shades! If you make them Stila, I’ll buy them!

Tarte, When All Else Fails Look to Korea for Inspiration!

Tarte is busy channeling Korean brand, Labiotte, today with a new Wine Not Lipgloss & Brush Set and Rose is Bae Lipgloss & Brush Set (please stop with these horrible makeup brushes) for Spring 2019.

Tarte, Tarte, Tarte y u do this to yourself? I mean, Labiotte is sort of cute but you guys are trying a little too hard. You see, you might have just had me on the cute wine bottle shaped lipgloss but you KILLED things with the glass shaped brush! Don’t you understand no one likes these brushes!? They are awkward to use and cumbersome to store. Not everyone wants to have a set of brushes that we can take photos of and post on Instagram. We actually want to buy a brush we can like use on our face to apply makeup and stuff. Weren’t the flamingo brushes enough!?

Ok, I’ll stop ranting!

These two new sets do have a Labiotte vibe. If you’re familiar with Labiotte you know they have some rather cute wine bottle and goblet packaging. Seems like Tarte took a little inspiration from them! I think Labiotte does a little bit of a better job though packaging wise. Their version is cute where as Tarte’s feels a little too try hard.

Anyway, these two new Tarte “Wine” themed sets are available now.

Do you think you’d buy them?

Jump ahead for the deets on the sets!
