I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

Benefit The Blush Bunch Bronzer & Blush Set and Pretty In The U.S.A Bronzer Brows Blush & Highlighter Set are two new Ulta Exclusive Sets that launched today which gets you some of the brand’s yummiest Box ‘o Powder selections as well as an early glimpse of the new Gold Rush Blush that launched at Sephora yesterday!

Our first set is the Benefit The Blush Bunch Bronzer & Blush Set ($24) which gets you fun sizes (0.1 oz) of six different blush and bronzers from the brand. Honestly, if you’ve never tried Benefit before this is a nice way to do but most importantly these sizes are great if you just have too much blush and never hit pan. Or maybe you want to travel with these and leave your full-size ones behind for fear of breaking them. The set includes Gold Rush, Benefit’s newest blush shade as well as: Galifornia, Hoola Matte Bronzer, Hoola Lite, Rockateur Blush, and Dandelion.

Tarte Releases Minute to Mermaid Brush Set and Other Mermaid Essentials

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

So, you wanna be a mermaid? Tarte Spring 2018 brings you a new Minute to Mermaid Brush Set and other mermaid essentials to get you started on your journey to becoming a mermaid.

Our story started with the launch of the Tarte Be a Mermaid & Make Waves Eyeshadow Palette but since that early launch the brand introduced several brand new tools, skincare, and makeup launches all inspired my that legendary creature, the mermaid. I remember seeing Splash for the first time. I think I was 8 or something like that and it stuck with me all through my childhood. I truly wanted to be just like Daryl Hannah! Rumor has it they are doing a remake with Channing Tatum I wonder if that’ll ever happen!

Whether you’ve always wanted to be a mermaid, have just been fascinated with this mystical creature, or if even if you’re just damn tired of the mermaids and unicorns, you’ll find some magic in this collection I’m sure.

Wear MAC Keep It Currant Liquidlast Liner Be Lady Vengeance

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

My obsession with red eyeshadow and eyeliner is brought to you by Geum”�ja Lee as played by Lee Young”�ae in the Korean film Lady Vengeance. Surely, by now you’ve seen this film and coveted the strong red eyeshadow that’s worn by our anti-heroine. If not, allow me to tell you red eyeshadow is everything because of Lady Vengeance. It’s a shade that I find very, very flattering on Asian eyes and it’s a shade I adore using even though it doesn’t always work out well for me.

My favorite form of red comes in the form of a metallic crimson eyeliner that was available for a limited time in the Majolica Majorca Perfect Automatic Liner formula. Now I don’t love liquid eyeliner by any means but that shade just thrilled me beyond words.

Tatcha The Silk Canvas Protective Primer Review & Swatches

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Tatcha The Silk Canvas Protective Primer ($52) is a new facial primer that the brand released a few weeks ago which acts to smooth and prep skin for makeup while extending the wear of your foundation.

I purchased this the day it launched which I believe was the first week of February and I’ve used it every single day since to give it a fair testing period. I had hopes it would turn out as well as Mally Poreless Face Defender which I use and love. The formula actually sounds a hell of a lot better than Mally’s formula in some ways as they throw around words silk powder, flawlessness, and protection against free radicals. They make it seem like you’re doing something really good for your skin not to mention they promise this will even out your skin tone and ease dullness.

It’s weird to me to see this promoted on Instagram showing shots of eyeshadow swatches with and without Tatcha The Silk Canvas Protective Primer used. I have no idea how this relates to the product. Sure, the eyeshadow swatches with this used under it look more intense but how does that apply to a product you’re using on your face!? It just seems an irrelevant and unrelated way to promote the product.

None the less, I was intrigued by this and decided to purchase it to try out.
