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

H&M Cover-Up Concealer

H&M Cover-Up Concealer ($6.99) comes atcha on the cheap and in a range of five shades. I see you there, turning your nose up slightly because you’re not really sure a clothing department store can do up concealer well.

Let me tell you H&M Cream Lipstick blew me away and H&M Cover-Up Concealer, aside from one important issue, is just as incredible.

Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Stick for Spring 2016

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

Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Stick

I have a thing for swipe and go stick foundations so I’m loving on the new Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Stick for Spring 2016. Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Stick is a new high coverage foundation stick with a matte finish (darn, I guess I’m out!). This lightweight powder to cream foundation is available in 18 shades for $42.

Lancome promises a second-skin oil-free finish plus this has an SPF 21 for light sun protection. Porous polymers absorb excess acne-producing oils so if you’re look for a foundation to curb shine and prevent acne this is your guy as it leaves skin soft, mattified, and shine free with the promise of a transfer-free finish. It even contains ambora extract which apparently reduces redness which makes it an ideal pick for sensitive skin types.

Count me curious but sadly as a drier girl it might not be a good pick for me.

Pick up Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Stick today at Sephora.com.

L’Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation Review & Swatches

L'Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation

L’Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation is a new, permanent cushion foundation that’s available in 12 shade selections with the L’Oreal Spring 2016 Collection which is launching at drugstores now.

This year there were quite a few higher end brands that ventured into the world of the popular Korean cushion foundation world. One of my personal favorites is the It Cosmetics CC Veil Beauty Fluid Foundation although It Cosmetics was way ahead of the game as their cushion makeup launched in 2014. Psstt but it is made in Korea!

Lancome also introduced their Miracle Cushion Liquid Cushion Compact and we even got cushion blush from Stila’s Summer 2015 Collection and cushion eyeliners from the Stila Fall 2015 Collection.

So obviously Western and Eastern trends are joining forces at the drugstore this year as L’Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation isn’t the only cushion makeup arriving for Spring 2016 but also expect to see a Physicians Formula Cushion Makeup and a few other budget brands who will launching their own formulas!
