E.L.F. Beautifully Bare Lightweight Concealer Stick

E.L.F. Beautifully Bare Lightweight Concealer Stick ($4) is a new chubby concealer stick that launched in 4 shade selections late last month. I don’t know why I keep buying E.L.F. concealers and continue trying to use them under my eyes. I seriously have to have my head examined. A majority of their concealer formulas might just perform fabulously on skin but under eyes? Too dry!

E.L.F. Beautifully Bare Lightweight Concealer Stick might be a great pick if you’re looking to contour and brighten or perhaps conceal minor blemishes but if you’re planning on using it under your eyes, don’t bother.

Vaseline Pink Bubbly Lip Therapy Review

Vaseline Pink Bubbly Lip Therapy 3

The limited edition Vaseline Pink Bubbly Lip Therapy ($4.99) arrived at Walgreens this month! Keep your eyes peeled if you’re a fond fan of Vaseline Lip Therapy as this new flavor will only be around for a limited time.

Originally introduced in the UK and available exclusively at Selfridges, Vaseline Pink Bubbly quickly gained a cult following. I know myself and many fans of the original Vaseline Rosy Lips formula were terribly excited about the launch of Pink Bubbly and terribly sad it was in the UK only. I’m very happy to report it’s launch here in the US now!

Bath & Body Works Black Cherry Merlot Does Smell Like the Hand Soap

Talk on the Bath & Body Works front recently is that the newly formulated Bath & Body Works Black Cherry Merlot does in fact smell like the hand soap. Slay me, I die. Honestly, I’m all for Bath & Body Works releasing more candles that smell like their hand soaps! Yes, please!

Black Cherry Merlot was released last year in the Cork and Vine Candle Collection and there was much excitement and buzz surrounding it because so many people love the hand soap version. For me the hand soap smells like kindergarten! Seriously, one of my first memories of going to school was the cookies and fruit juice they used to give us and if nothing at that’s exactly what the hand soap smells like. Oh, not the cookie part, the juice part! It’s beyond sweet with a mix of delicious cherries and other fruit notes.

Now, the candle was a crushingly disappointing! It smelled nothing like the hand soap! Le sigh!

Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lipstick Review & Swatches

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lipstick

Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lipstick ($12) are a new lipstick line that Soap & Glory launched in the UK a few month ago which arrived in the US recently. These lipsticks come in three lightweight that include mattes and satins plus you can get them in a choice of 12 shades that range in color from nudes, to reds, to pinks.

Soap & Glory’s makeup line can be pretty hit and miss for me but I’ve always been a fan of Mother Pucker Lipgloss which was one reason I wanted to try the lipstick. Also, the lipstick looks pretty darn slick which made it even more tempting. So, I picked up Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lipstick in Rougenie recently at Ulta.com and now I feel like I need ALL the shades.
