The new Tarte Rainforest Of The Sea Highlighting Eyeshadow Palette Vol. III is now available at Sephora.com. If you headed out early today to attend the Sephora VIB Rouge Event you likely already have this one in your beauty arsenal but for the sleepy heads you can now purchase it online!

This is obviously the third version of the popular Rainforest of the Sea Palette however note the “highlighting” in the title. Hmm…Tarte wants to get all the highlighter they can in lately! You might want to read my ridiculous thoughts on the new Rainforest of the Sea Radiance Drops.

Like past palettes, you get eight eyeshadows in this palette and I’m guessing they have the same powder gel creamy hybrid formula ad past palettes. It really is a formula that’s different and exciting for Tarte not to mention it applies and performs very well. This time around they are apparently going for an instant eye-illuminating effect with these shades thanks to oxygenated light-reflecting spheres that highlight lids. Wait, there’s more! There’s a matte nude transition color to pair up with the colors so eyes appear more awake and brighter. Well, I’m on board with that but not so sure about the oxygenated whatever spheres.

Shades include:

• Escape (nude pink luster)
• Tiki (matte beige)
• Heat Wave (pink luster)
• Malibu (plum bronze)
• Rays (peachy copper)
• Compass (champagne)
• Jewel (copper)
• Treasure (pearlescent)

Tarte Rainforest Of The Sea Highlighting Eyeshadow Palette Vol. III is available now at Sephora.com.

Too Faced Glitter Bomb Eyeshadow Palette arrives today with an array of glittery shades and of course, I’m on it because glitter is totally my jam. This new palette contains 8 glitter eyeshadows as well as a black and white matte base to use them over. Black will intensify the shades and white will brighten them! The shades can be applied dry for a glittery look or intensified by adding a little water that creates a foiled, liquid crystal finish.

Shades include:

• Intensifying Base
• Brightening Base
• Oh, It�s On
• Glitter Goals
• Splash
• Rosé All Day
• Fairy Dust
• Confetti
• Hot Damn!
• Work It

Too Faced also includes a how-to-get the look guide for application. The palette kind of reminds me of Urban Decay Moondust Eyeshadow Palette which released many months ago but Too Faced’s formula looks a little chunkier from promo images. I hope this doesn’t translate into fall out. I’m actually kind of hoping that the formula isn’t overkill! I’d love a subtle glittery look but not something outrageous disco ball-like in finish.

I’m a little unsure if the palette is a Fall 2017 release or a Summer 2017 one. These releases come and go so quickly it’s hard to tell which season they are promoting! None the less if you stopped at the Sephora Rouge Event this morning you likely grabbed up this palette but if you slept in no worries you can get it now at Sephora.com.

There’s a catch though! You have to be a Sephora Rouge Member! Everyone else will be able to get this one later.

At the moment the Internet is going crazy for mermaid-like glow-y skin and apparently Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Radiance Drops ($32) is about to get that for you. Because you know damn well that if you swim in the ocean all day and you’re out in the sun all day with absolutely no SPF (because I don’t think mermaid’s are smart about SPF) no way you’re coming out of the ocean with crusty ass skin looking like Captain Barbossa. Nope, your skin will have a beautiful dewy glow! Cough NOT cough!

Let’s face it, unicorns are out, mermaids are in. At the moment the Internet is broken because of these drops not to mention people are foaming at the mouth on Instagram in the hopes of getting their hands on Rainforest of the Sea Radiance Drops. And now you can as they launched earlier today with the Tarte Summer 2017 Collection last night on their website and better yet they are available now at Sephora.com.

I dunno if mermaids are or aren’t using these drops as I figure their too busy with their gadgets, gizmos, whozits and whatzits. But you might want to get these for yourself just don’t get too excited as the rest of the Internet because most people are expecting some sort of intense highlighter and from what I’ve seen of Rainforest of the Sea Radiance Drops they look like Maracuja Oil with a little gold mica tossed in. You know my stance at applying oil on my face during the day so I guess this is a skip for me but if you’re interested this jojoba, coconut, maracuja oil infusion will hydrate skin as well as give you a soft, luminous glow like a mermaid not like Captain Barbossa, although a bottle of rum might just get you the same glow.

Get yours now at Sephora.com.

Too Faced Melted Latex Liquified High Shine Lipstick will be launching at toofaced.com June 15th for Summer 2017. These new Melted Latex Liquified High Shine Lipsticks are a retake on the matte formula of the Too Faced Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Matte Lipsticks that launched last year.

You guys know I hate matte lipsticks so, I’m pretty excited about these. Apparently they have a honey-like texture! Oooo cool! Who remembers Too Faced Mirror Mirror Lipgloss? That was my jam back in the day. Seriously, that was one of thee shiniest lipglosses ever! If you loved those I highly recommend checking out Maybelline Shine Shot because it’s just as brilliant.

But, anyway, about these Melted Latex Liquified High Shine Lipsticks….! Along with the honey texture it also has a latex-like shine that gives a lacquered finish. These look very pigmented as well. No word how many shades they are releasing this in but I suspect it should be quite a few!

Take a look at the video below!

Tarte just dropped their first fragrance ever called Sweet Tarte as well as their new Make Magic Happen Eyeshadow Palette, Dream Big Eyeshadow Palette, Rainforest of the Sea Radiance Drops, and more for Summer 2017. I’m pretty amazed that all this is coming out when they literally just launched the Clay Stick Foundation and Clay Play Face Shaping Palette! The most interesting aspect of this release would probably be the new Tarte Sweet Tarte Fragrance. Apparently brands releasing a fragrance is some new trend considering Urban Decay Go Naked Perfume Oil also launched recently.

Who’s next to create a perfume? Too Faced? You have to ask yourself if they are all sitting around one big table discussing what the next big thing is going to be and suddenly a light bulb goes off above their heads and Urban Decay turns to Tarte and says, “Perfume! We’ll do a perfume!” And Tarte replies, “We’ll do one too!” and the birth of some new Instagram movement is made.

Needless to say, I want to try it. It sounds like it has some very appealing notes.

Let’s take a look!
