The Revlon Selfie-Ready, Simplified Collection brings us two new Revlon Photoready Primers as well as a few repromoted products from their Photoready line. The two newest formulas are Revlon Photoready Pore Reducing Primer and Revlon Photoready Brightening Primer.

I happen to be a major fan of Revlon Photoready Primer as you already know and I’ve recommended it numerous times in the past. I was pretty excited they decided to extend this wonderful primer to add two different new formulations.

Urban Decay The Velvetizer Translucent Mix-In Medium ($34) is a new silica matte finish powder that can be used to set makeup or used as a mix-in to make any foundation matte in finish. Sounds interesting? At first, I thought it was but after thinking about it a little bit I was like, “Well, maybe Urban Decay is just being a little extra with their marketing!” You know, trying to sell you snow in the Summer because in reality what this is a very, very silky powder but that’s all it is a powder. And you can basically use any powder you have and mix it in with your foundation should you like.

Here’s some deets.

Stila In a Firenze Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow Liquid Eyeshadow ($24) launched a few days ago at Sephora.com close on the heels of the launch of Kat Von D’s Lolita Cheek and Eye Blush. Wait, stop, does this mean red eyeshadow everything for Fall 2017? Bring it on!

Anyway, it sold out fast! So, did Kat’s Lolita shade but don’t worry it’s back in stock now at Sephora.com and it’s set to launch in stores 6/15 if you want to see it in person!

I have a rather mad love affair with Stila Magnificent Metals Glitter & Glow Liquid Eyeshadow and the fact they launched this new shade has me in fits of joy. It’s a dusky rose but it has a quite a good deal of gorgeous red to it from what I’ve seen in swatches. Needless to say I quickly ordered it up!

Get it now before it disappears 🙂

It seems to have a knack for selling out fast.

P.S. Did you watch the Gotham finale? I think I need a Riddler ice sculpture in my living room. Mmm, yes please.

Contrary to its selection of sandy, beachy shade selection the new Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Eyeshadow Palette Volume III ($36) is a Fall 2017 launch that arrived last weekend during the Sephora VIB Rouge Event in stores and online.

Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Eyeshadow Palette Volume III has been called a “highlighting eye palette” by Sephora and is said to have “eye-illuminating effects” thanks to oxygenated light-reflecting spheres which act to highlight eyelids for a smooth, even texture. Ok, let’s break that down for a second…Basically, what they are trying to tell you, is this palette has contains eight metallic shades that have an almost foiled finish.

Like many of you I liked the original Rainforest of the Sea Eyeshadow Palette and also, had a fairly good run with the Rainforest of the Sea Eyeshadow Palette Volume II. Which obviously led me to the purchase of Volume III. One thing that I think deserves mentioning is that the original releases or at the very least Volume 1 was marketed as a limited edition palette and it’s still very much available. I noticed they didn’t say the same for Volume III. With limited edition being thrown around so loosely nowadays I’m happy for once they are not promoting as a “YOU MUST BUY THIS NOW BEFORE IT IS GONE FOREVER!”

Kat Von D Saint and Sinner Eau de Parfum is relaunching soon at Sephora in gorgeous, correction, stunning new bottles. Not that the bottles were shabby before but these new ones are vanity worthy for sure.

It’s been a few years since the Saint and Sinner line first popped up at Kat Von D so, it’s nice to see their return.
