If you haven’t already you need to head over to maccosmetics.com and sign up to become a MAC Select member! Why? Because MAC Select Members get first dibs on the sizzling hot Selena Collaboration that’s launching for Fall 2016.

As you already know MAC collaborated with Selena’s sister to create a makeup collection inspired by the singer. The collection will include some of Selena’s most worn shades like her iconic red lipstick shades as well as eyeshadows and more. The collection arrives in October just in time for Fall 2016.

MAC plans to reward Select Members by allow them to pre-shop the MAC x Selena Collection. If you’re either an Obsessed or Devoted fan you’ll have your chance to get your greedy hands all over the Selena Collection before the official launch.

If you don’t know already MAC Select is a new reward program that MAC launched at the start of the new year. It’s made up of three spending tiers that gets you a ton of bonuses such as free samples, shipping, early access to select collections like Selena’s, deluxe gifts, and more! Signing up is completely free and each level of the program is based off of purchases from $0 to $500.

MAC has plenty of limited edition collections, many of which sell out fairly quickly but I suspect Selena’s Collection will most definitely be one that goes quickly. Sign up now for the Select Rewards program and start raking up points so you can be one of the first to get your hands on the collection!

P.S. Have a good weekend! Try to keep cool! New York is getting some crazy hot weather but we aren’t alone as the heat is set to travel throughout the US over the next four days. Keep well hydrated, cool, and most important have fun whatever you do this weekend 🙂

Mattes apparently are back for Fall 2016 and this new Make Up For Ever Artist Eyeshadow Palette Volume 4 ($44) is filled with cool mattes, nine of ’em to be exact. I think one of the top rants I get when any new palette launches is, “Oh no not more nudes!” I get it, nudes have definitely dominated the market lately. But I’m one of those girls, that’s all like, “Oh I have 500 shades of brown eyeshadow but I should buy this brown eyeshadow anyway because it looks NOTHING like the other 500 I already have”. Yeah, my makeup life is filled with illogical excuses like that gem.

In cases like that I look to Ryan to make everything right with my makeup universe again. He brings me calm clarity.

Make Up For Ever Artist Palette Volume 4 isn’t about the nudes though! This is definitely a cooler round up of shades that includes taupes, purples, greys, and pinks! The shades are organized into trios to take the guess work out of pairing them up to create an eye look! Each one is 0.04 oz in size and the colors included are:

• Black (M-100)
• Grey Brown (M-620)
• Chalk (M-126)
• Wine (M-842)
• Antique Pink (M-806)
• Dark Purple Taupe (M-546)
• Prussian Blue (M-240)
• Milk Tea (M-536)
• Eggshell (M-530)

There’s also an illustrated step-by-step application guide!

Get it now at Sephora.com now. Might as well start prepping for Fall 2016 now right?

Not ready for Too Faced Spring 2017? Too bad! Jerrod Blandino is busy teasing the Too Faced Sweet Peach Glow Palette for Spring 2017 which is causing mass hysteria and pandemonium on Instagram this morning! We all know how insane the Too Faced Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette went down. We’re talking epic, craziness! I’m still trying to comprehend the insanity that was that eyeshadow palette.

None the less, forget about the Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette because right now it’s about the Too Faced Sweet Peach Glow Palette (And don’t worry, Jerrod promises a return of the eyeshadow palette soon! Perhaps that might just be with the Too Faced Spring 2017 Collection or maybe sooner! We’ll have to see).

There is absolutely no word what is inside this new palette but I imagine it is likely a highlighter palette and I hopes perhaps it includes some luminous blushes as well in, perhaps, peachy shades!? Jerrod did flash some photos a few weeks ago which you can see after the jump of gorgeous pressed blush powders as well as a tiny little mirror with a peach on it. I wonder is this the inside of the Sweet Peach Glow Palette? Or are those powders something else completely that’s coming from Too Faced?

All I can see is that I might just wait out Too Faced Holiday 2016 and save my money for Spring 2017 instead!

Yup, it’s that time of the year again, kids! Bath & Body Works Fall 2016 Candles have arrived online and should be launching soon in stores. Mind you, this isn’t the full launch! They’ll be more, much, much, more! And I, for one, can’t wait. Fall is my favorite time of the year and Bath & Body Works Fall Candles are a big part of my autumn tradition!

Like I need another candle, but yeah, still totally hauling any and all new ones. Which reminds me, I promised myself that this year I would start enjoy Fall right on September 1st. It’s still very warm in New York come September but I’m not going to wait, I’m going to haul out the candles and the Fall Hand Soaps and get busy enjoy the season because it passes by way too quickly.

Let’s drool all over the Bath & Body Works Fall 2016 Candles together and remind ourselves we don’t NEED more but we sure as hell WANT more. Besides, I feel like I deserve this! I haven’t purchased candles in at least 5 to 6 months!

Oh, top of my list this season? Toasted Graham Cracker Latte!

Ok, if you haven’t tried Nip + Fab Soften Kale Fix Moisturizer you need to get on that ASAP, peeps. It’s one of my favorite budget moisturizers at the moment!

But what this post really is about is the newest Nip + Fab Summer launches available at CVS, CVS.com, Ulta, and Ulta.com like Dragon’s Blood Fix Hyaluronic Shot ($24.99) and Bee Sting Fix Toning Pads. I dunno about you but my geeky good nature loves the idea of products that have names like Dragon’s Blood and Bee Sting. Nothing like a little bad ass venomousness (is that a word) in your skincare to get the day started. Which reminds me, while every other little girl was wanting to be a princess, I wanted to be Cruella de Vil. She was just so fabulous, kidnapping little puppies aside that is! I’m positive she had Chanel lipstick on her lips, Louboutin on her feet, and started her day by prepping with Dragon’s Blood Fix Hyaluronic Shot.

I mean if she doesn’t scare you, no evil Bee Sting Fix Toning Pads will right?

P.S. Speaking of villains, which do you want to be when you grow up? Mine is a toss up between Harley, Negan, and Cruella!

But more important which new Nip + Fab products do you want to try?

Check ’em below!
