Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment Perfecting Wand ($24) is a new exfoliating lip treatment that gently buffs away dead skin cells on your lips with a moisturizing sugar formula that promises to provide up to six hours of moisture. The formula is infused with loofah oil which helps to fight dryness as well as cupuaçu and mango butter, black current seed and grapeseed oils.

This is actually a leave on treatment and the applicator tip act to gently massage lips and buff away dryness as the formula hydrates and smooths. It reminds me a bit of the Pixi Nourishing Lip Polish. I actually kind of love the idea of gently buffing my lips during the application process as it’ll likely give me that just bitten look. Beauty confession, I totally bite my lips a little before applying gloss to get the blood flowing and to plump them up a bit. It kind of gives them a bee stung look! This treatment is a lot less easier though 🙂

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment Perfecting Wand is available now at Sephora.com.

Hard Candy Sheer Envy Coconut Primer Stick ($8) is a new, refreshing facial primer stick that’s a part of the Hard Candy Spring 2017 Collection. This little stick preps makeup for skin with a cool, refreshing feel. Primer sticks like this aren’t new by any means! A few year’s ago they were pretty popular and still are in Asia. You likely read my review for a few already like the DuWop Flight Stick, Skin Food Facial Ice Vita Cooling Stick, Milk Makeup Cooling Water, and E.L.F. Studio Daily Moisture Stick.

But there’s always room for hydrating sticks in my beauty arsenal.

Here’s a review and some good thoughts on the Hard Candy Sheer Envy Coconut Primer Stick.

I’m on month number two of my FaceTory subscription and I’m quite happy with the service so far. If you haven’t read my original review/thoughts about Facetory you can check it out by clicking here. FaceTory is a facial sheet mask subscription service that sends out a variety of facial sheet masks every month. I use sheet masks quite often and I go through them at a rapid pace. I tend to buy them in bulk from a variety of online retailers but I ended up subscribing to FaceTory because I liked the idea of getting new masks to try every month.

The box once a month and you can either sign up for the four a month plan which includes four sheet masks for $4.95 with .99 cent shipping or the seven month a plan which is $14.95 with Free Shipping!

Here’s a look at this month’s content.

So, I’m thinking Farsali Unicorn Essence is the stuff of legends. Gosh, I was like 8 or something when I saw Tim Curry play Darkness in Legend. Yeah, I should have been swooning over Tom Cruise but come on, seriously, Tom Curry though right? I was actually voting for him to capture the Power of Light protected by those unicorns. I’m almost positive but not quite sure that he was likely slathered himself in Unicorn Essence from head to toe after he caught the mare. God, reading that back sounds terribly perverse and fan fic-like. Note to self, Stop spending too much time reading fan fiction.

But honestly, tell me you aren’t sitting there rolling around in fits of joy that there’s a new skincare serum that’s not only called Unicorn Essence but is also a shimmering purple-y pink shade. Shut the hell up and take all my money NOW!

Farsali Unicorn Essence is a water-based serum that helps hydrate and protect skin from free radical damage while preparing it for makeup application . It contains a host of antioxidants like açai berry, goji berry, elderberry, and blueberry. Apparently it isn’t greasy thanks to the fact it is water-based.

I need this in my life. So do you.

No unicorns were harmed in the making of this essence.

Proof positive that Clinique and Bobbi Brown have the same parent company today in the form of the new Bobbi Brown Art Stick Liquid Lip. Remember yesterday’s post about the new Clinique Chubby Plump & Shine Liquid Lip Plumping Gloss? These new Bobbi Brown Art Stick Liquid Lip Pens should look familiar!

The packaging might look the same but Bobbi’s formula is apparently a pigmented liquid lipstick with eight hours of wear and a semi-matte finish. Sephora says they are a squeeze tube but they look like a click pen of sorts to me. I’m wildly curious about them to say the least! Clinique version is way cheaper though at $17 bucks versus Bobbi’s at $28 but hey, Clinique’s also seems to be sheerer.

What do you think?

I think I might try at least one! There are 16 shades total and some of the reds and nudes are calling my name.

Yes, please.
