Did I Buy All The Benefit Wanderful World Collection Blushes? Yup, Because They Were 25% Off!

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

So, I did a thing.

I ordered every single shade from the new Benefit Wanderful World Blush Collection and I’ll probably regret it but they were 25% Off and I’m feeling like I don’t care at the moment! I am almost 99.9% sure I’m going to regret this purchase but I keep reminding myself how wonderful shades like Galifornia and Coralista were and it eased my anxiety that I made a horrible mistake ordering all of these. ASOS has all the shades in stock at the moment and they are 25% off with code HOLIDAY.

I’m just over here trying to relive 2009 when I first swiped Coralista on my face! There has to be at least one good shade in this collection right? RIGHT?

E.L.F. C-Bright Putty Primer Has 2% Vitamin C And I Don’t Care

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

Well, sorry, but E.L.F. C-Bright Putty Primer holds no interest for me. E.L.F. is relaunching Poreless Putty Primer yet again with a new formula that contains 2% Vitamin C and I’m sitting here like, “Yeah, I don’t need that but thank you anyway!” The idea of E.L.F. C-Bright Putty Primer is interesting. It’s always fun having a hybrid product that acts as a base and a skincare product. But in reality, I’m not sure 2% Vitamin C is going to do much of anything for your skin.

I’m sure it has the same great formula as Poreless Putty Primer. Poreless Putter Primer is def a nicer version of Tatcha The Silk Canvas Protective Primer in my humble opinion. Tatcha’s formula and I never got on! Way too greasy feeling to me but E.L.F.’s formula was just right. I don’t have visible pores but E.L.F.’s formula is great for setting a nice, smooth canvas for makeup. Tatcha’s version always felt oddly oily on me!

I could be grossly wrong about C-Bright Putty Primer but I dunno if 2% vitamin C is going to do much for your skin. Just use your regular Vitamin C daily for the best benefits and don’t rely on your primer to do the job for you. Like I said above I love the idea of products like this but in most cases, they are a one-trick pony!

E.L.F. has been going a little too crazy with this formula in my opinion. You have a solid product, guys! No need to introduce all these variations of it! I think they have an illuminating one now, a color correcting one…. It’s just so overkill!

But hey, if E.L.F. C-Bright Putty Primer interests you it’s available now!

Thoughts about this product?

Is NARS Going Out of Business or Are They Simply Repackaging?

I know NARS recently had a 20% Off Friends and Family Sale but literally, all their stock is depleted at the moment. Ok, so, supply issues are a real problem in the beauty world at the moment and it’s literally forcing smaller brands out of business but how are our big guys doing?

I get a little nervous and antsy when I see big brands like NARS with so little stock in their general catalog. I mean, this could mean they are about to repackage things. That’s a very real possibility. It’s probably a little too early to get nervous about them potentially going out of business but I have to admit I get a little concerned when I see their shelves so low on stock. Foundations, blushes, concealers, and many of their general items are all out of stock.

I do wonder if it was just the sale or if something else is up at NARS.

Let me know what you think about the inventory issues at NARS.

Should we be nervous? Or is this just a supply or ingredient issue due to the pandemic?

Bite Beauty Is Going Out of Business But the Lip Lab Remains

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

Bite Beauty is sadly going out of business. Yup, the show is sadly over for Bite Beauty as they live the makeup word. Bite Beauty took to Instagram to share the news they’d be going out of business BUT their Lip Laps would remain opening with new locations coming soon!

Bite Beauty hasn’t shared if their closing due to the pandemic but really, it’s been a while since they really had any major releases. I kept waiting for them to revamp their lipstick collection but instead, they released a mediocre makeup collection. It seems like they were already on their way to pre-pandemic.

This isn’t the first nor the last makeup brand causality as Bite Beauty joins Becca, Clarisonic, Makeup Geek, Coastal Scents, and others.

I’m sad to see Bite Beauty go. They had a good, solid lipstick.

If you want to stock up on your favorites Bite Beauty is 40-50% off at Sephora and Bite Beauty’s website. Many of the Bite Beauty Power Move Hydrating Soft Matte Lipsticks have been restocked at sephora.com!

CoverGirl Simply Ageless Triple Action Concealer Is $17.49 at Ulta

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

Great Scott! CoverGirl Simply Ageless Triple Action Concealer is $17.49 which I’d say makes it the highest-priced concealer at the drugstore currently! But have no fear, this is ulta.com’s price as everywhere else this runs around $11-$12. But even that price is rather obscene! Ouch!

Ummm…can you guys please take a second and remind me if there is or isn’t a Covergirl Simply Ageless Concealer that looks just like this one on the market already. Am I nuts? Or does it look mighty familiar?

Shrug! Maybe I’m wrong! Seems like Simply Ageless Triple Action Concealer big feature is the cooling ceramic wand that you can apply the concealer with. If the applicator gave you a little deja vu that would be because Dominique Cosmetics just launched Wide Awake Full Coverage Concealer which has a similar one.

Covergirl’s formula provides lightweight medium to full coverage with a formula that contains a Hyaluronic Complex, Vitamin C, and Niacinamide which act to hydrate the eye area as it brightens dark circles. Count me curious as I’m about brightening, hydrating concealers! But at this price, it better do all that and more….! I suppose we shouldn’t be too shocked considering anything and everything is incredibly expensive at the moment.

CoverGirl Simply Ageless Triple Action Concealer is available in ten shades.

Will you try it?
