NARSissist Loaded Eyeshadow Palette and Time After Time Babblings!

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

Like we need another nude palette? But the NARS NARSissist Loaded Eyeshadow Palette for Spring 2017 ($59) caught my attention today and even though I know I’m already set for nudes this month after purchasing the Too Faced Natural Love Eyeshadow Palette I still have a little voice in my head saying, “You should totally buy this for yourself!”

NARS loads up the NARSissist Loaded Eyeshadow Palette with twelve gold inspired shades with a delicious assortment of complimentary browns, nude, and natural shades!

Shades include:

  • Newbury Street
  • Windsor
  • Privilege
  • Dover
  • Foix
  • Castille
  • Alnwick
  • Beaumaris
  • Splendor
  • Versailles
  • Montaillou
  • Reale

Do I need it? Probably not. Do I want it? Most definitely!

NARSissist Loaded Eyeshadow Palette is available now at www.narscosmetics.com.

P.S. Is anyone watching Time After Time? H.G. Wells, Jack the Ripper, Freddie Stroma, what’s not to love? My love affair with H.G. Wells dates back to first time I read the Invisible Man and later Claude Rains bringing said Invisible Man to life. The series is based off the film of the same name. Malcolm McDowell is in it, so yeah, saw the movie when I was like 16 and everything with Malcolm McDowell was very, very, very, very important to me because hello, Clockwork Orange!

I dunno if fans of the film are going to see major similarities between it and the TV series because lord knows the TV series is going for a much more youthful, sexier feel. Freddie Stroma is totally my new crush. He’s adorably nerdy and endearing as H.G. Wells and also, pretty sexy too! He was in Harry Potter but he’s grown up considerably.

Anyway, it’s on Hulu if you want to catch up. I watched two episodes so far and really enjoyed it.

By the way, Happy Hump Day! Almost Friday! I think, kind of, sort of, not really….

Available now at sephora.com and at ulta.com.

New Lumene, Buxom $10 Sale, and New Tarte Eyeshadows

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

Day three of the Ulta 21 Days of Beauty Sale is on and today you can snag Buxom Full-On Lip Creams for $10 bucks.

Other cool sightings:
Shea Moisture is on sale this week so, now would be a good time to grab their Beautyhack Sugar Scrub Base. This is a raw sugar unscented scrub that can be used with their new Beautyhack scented oils. Basically it lets you customize the scrub with any fragrance you want. I dunno why but my inner mad scientist (or maybe it’s my inner barista) loves this idea.

By the way, Tarte unleashed a slew of new Tarteist Metallic Shadows for $14 each plus you can get a free deluxe Maneater Voluptuous Mascara and Lippie Lingerie with any $35 Tarte purchase.

And finally, Lumene has a new Recover & Protect Oil and Matte Hydrating 24HR Cream that look interesting!

Happy Shopping!

Kiko Less Is Better Konjac Sponge Review

This was provided to me by a brand for review and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post but all opinions are my own.

Need a new konjac sponge in your skincare life? The new Kiko Less Is Better Konjac Sponge ($10) hit the scene recently as part of the Less is Better Capsule Collection for Spring 2017. Is it terribly weird that I wanted this because it was pink? I mean, I don’t have a pink konjac sponge and I really like pink…..!

No, but seriously, if your skincare life doesn’t include a konjac sponge, you’re missing out on something special. Plus pink ones are actually fantastic for duller, drier skin types (black are best for problem skin types but I tend to use black anyway as they give a good, deep clea).

Philosophy Purity Made Simple Pore Extractor Mask Launches

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

So, I’m still waiting for that on skincare product that will suck out the nasty blackheads on my nose. Is Philosophy Purity Made Simple Pore Extractor Mask it? Probably not! But seriously, I have tried every single blackhead mask, nose strip, and hot steamer cleanser from all over Asia and none of them have quite eliminated all the pesky blackheads that like to hang out on my nose. I have them extracted manually because nose strips don’t always cut it.

But, my blackheads aren’t your mission today. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to try the new Philosophy Purity Made Simple Pore Extractor Mask and let me know how it goes. I can’t say it, it contains white clay and salicylic acid aka a nightmare cocktail for dry skin. Apparently it’ll draw out dirt, gunk and oil, while scrubbing away those blackheads. Your pores will be sparkly clean and gorgeous again. Apparently, it contains a natural yet potent exfoliating formula to get all the gunk out of your pores.

As for me?

I’ll keep buying Japanese charcoal nose strips and attempt to rip those suckers out of my nose for good!

Philosophy Purity Made Simple Pore Extractor Mask is available at Sephora.com right now.

P.S. My ear worm today is the Kiss Me theme song. Play it a few times, it totally grows on you. There are English subbies around here somewhere, it fits the drama so well.
