The Bobbi Brown Nude Beach Collection brings a selection of Bobbi Brown Tube Tints in four limited edition shades for Summer wearing!
These sheer, beach-y tints are perfect for wearing alone or over your favorite lipstick products but I promise they are tinted enough to wear completely solo and still keep you happy.
Available in an array of bronze-y sunkissed shades these are an ideal pick for nude Summer-y lips.
Take a peek!

Hada Labo BB Moist Cream is a gel foundation that contains Hyaluronic Acid which makes it an ideal pick for drier skin. It deserves to be mentioned I have a love/hate relationship with this product and I can’t rightfully say why that is. All in all the formula is rather nice but I think the “BB” in the title automatically makes me associate it with a BB Cream and that it isn’t.
Let’s take a look!

I recently purchased two of the three new Etude House I’m Blooming Mists in the Brightening Mist and Deep Moisture Mist formulas. These actually launched earlier last month in Korea but they have started popping up all around a variety of E-bay shops so I decided it was time to indulge and review.
I’m a huge facial mist person particularly in the Summer so I quickly added these to my list of items to be tried.
Here are some thoughts!

Covergirl Smoochies Lip Balm is a new variation on Covergirl Lipslicks that are available this Summer. I’m not really sure why they needed to go here as we already have Lipslicks and I’m not seeing much difference in the two formulas.
But this isn’t really the first product that Covergirl relaunched this season. Their new Creme Foundation and Shadow Pencils are also very similiar releases in new packaging.
Shrug…
However, if you like lip balms these might be worth exploring.
Here’s my review and thoughts.

Covergirl Flamed Out Shadow Pots are new single eyeshadows that the brand introduced for Summer 2013. These are available in twelve shades and are $3.49 at Harmons.
I don’t think Covergirl has done a single shadow pot before have they? I picked up a few on a whim as who knows they might prove good.

Some of Covergirl’s newest Summer offerings feel very retro. Covergirl Cleaned Whipped Creme Foundation is a perfect example of this as remember the old TRUblend Whipped Foundation I loved so much? Seems the same concept right?

Victoria’s Secret has FINALLY released Love Spell as an Eau De Parfum. Yes, you read that right, Victoria’s Secret Love Spell Perfume! I can’t believe it. I died a little bit when I saw this sitting on a display at my local store and was just about ready to stock up on ten bottles less it disappear suddenly.
Can you believe it?

Covergirl Flamed Out Shadow Pencils are a new range of chubby colored pencils that are launching in drugstores for Summer 2013. These quite remind me of Covergirl Eye Slicks which I’m unsure are even available anymore (Sorry, I don’t pay too much attention to CG’s offerings so I could be completely old school with the Eye Slicks reference).
These are available in ten shades and were $5.49 at Harmons. They had some tricked out colors which really sparked my interest like a gorgeous olive green and a flaming red!

The new Nature Republic Tweety BB Cream is getting a few poor reviews but I must admit, cuteness aside, I’m actually really liking it. It’s kinda more of a Japanese BB Cream versus a Korean one as it has a gel-like texture but the formula is very comfortable and lightweight perfect for Summer!

I’ve had a Tumblr account for a while and I just decided I might as well start using it right? Right. If you want you can follow me up at http://musemedia.tumblr.com/. I’ll be posting random beauty bits and bobs and I’m sure my fandoms will get involved in there as well somewhere….!
By the way, Happy (early) Mother’s Day to all the moms out there. I hope it’s a very special day for you!
And on a more serious note…ugh….
I’ve been having a few hiccups on Musings lately. If you experience any lag, hang ups, sluggishness, or any other drama when loading the site I would greatly appreciate it if you e-mail me or comment and let me know. I sometimes don’t catch these issues since I view the site differently than you do. I’d appreciate it SO much if you give me the heads up with any problems or slowness you experience.
Thanks!
Have a really pleasant weekend!
The new love of my life happens to be Dior Addict Lip Maximizer High Volume Lip Plumper. Addicted to lip plumpers by any chances? If so you NEED this.
The one redeeming factor about Kim K is her ability to pull off the best nude lip looks every and I swear Dior Addict Lip Maximizer must somehow factor into her look!

Rejoice my fair of skin friends! Jane Iredale Glow Time Full Coverage Mineral BB Cream is your savior! I tried two shades in this BB Cream and I must say they run quite fair so if you’ve had a problem finding a paler BB Cream I’d recommend checking this out.
But don’t check it out just for the shades because this formula is well worth a rave! Jane Iredale did a stupendous job getting the concept of a BB Cream down perfectly.

Holika Holika Pore Cover Mousse Starter is a foaming primer with an SPF 30. This foaming facial primer supposedly blurs the appearance of large pores while evening out skin tone and prepping skin for makeup while protecting it from the sun.
Foaming primers like this are a fairly common offering that a variety of Asian brands offer. I’ve tried literally hundreds and most offer the same benefits.

Set your Tivo because starting Friday, May 10th at 11PM EST QVC All Access Beauty starts off with 25 full hours devoted entirely to beauty. I’m actually away this weekend so I’ll have to be sure to set up my recorder in case I miss anything I absolutely have to have!
This exciting event will feature breakthrough products, special values and beauty tips straight from the faces behind the brands like Kate Somerville, Mally Roncal, Ken Paves, Chaz Dean, Jamie Kern Lima and more.
Beauty gadgets, skincare, makeup, and more from your favorite brands like Laura Geller, Philosophy, Tarte, Bobbi Brown, Mally Beauty, etc…etc…will be all featured during the All Access Beauty premiere.
As you know QVC actually asked me to pick out 12 products that I absolutely love and use daily. Some of you asked, “12? How the heck did you keep it to 12?” I know right? QVC must be mental thinking they can trust me to pick JUST 12 products. But I did it and I’m quite proud of myself and I’m welcoming pats on the back for being so awesome about picking a mere 12 products….!
I didn’t really have to put a lot of thought into those 12 products because they are staples of what I use daily or products I reach for a whole lot. I thought I’d share why I choose some of these products and what makes them so special so jump ahead to take a peek!
