Colourpop Valentine’s Day 2021 The 6th Collection to Launch In A Little Over a Month

Colourpop Valentine’s Day 2021 arrives on Feburary 3rd and it marks the 6th collection that launched since January 1st. So, what have we seen so far? The Animal Crossing Collection, the Lunar Year Launch, the new lip masks, the Wild Child Collection, The Cloud Spun Collection, the Love Struck Quads, there’s more, help me out here! Well, thank you Colourpop! I’m officially overwhelmed and it’s just now February 1st.

Ironically, I’ll bitch and whine and piss and moan when Too Faced, Urban Decay, and Tarte are launching collections too quickly but when Colourpop does it I’m all, “OOOO SO PRETTY!!” Must be the budget beauty friendly prices that do me in. But you can legit just sink your entire retirement into Colourpop! I picture people buying like every single collection! It’s not too farfetched considering how quickly it all sells out. The day of launch is typically 10AM PST and by 11PST most of it is gone. Obviously they are doing something right.

This collection includes three new pink, rose, and red Love Struck Eyeshadow Palettes plus three new heart shaped blushes that look like the old Too Faced Love Flush Blushes! They also have a few Fourth Ray Beauty items, a heart mirror and a highlighter. Oh and a face stamp! Are we still doing face stamps? The palettes and blush are the star of the show though!

Do I need any of this?

Absolutely not.

Do I want some of it?

Yeah. I’m a sucker. Here’s my money Colourpop do what you will with it!

Urban Decay Wild West Eyeshadow Palette Leaked On Zulily

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

I have my doubts that Urban Decay Wild West Eyeshadow Palette was supposed to pop up o Zulily first but it did somehow and here we are! The Urban Decay Wild West Eyeshadow Palette is a Spring 2021 launch with 12 new shades inspired by California’s deserts, endless skies, and Joshua Trees.

Update: The palette is now available at sephora.com!

This palette contains twelves shades with a mix of pale peaches, metallic bronzes, deep greens, and turquoises in matte, shimmer, metallic, and matte finishes. Apparently it has a launch of February 8th at sephora.com but I can’t confirm that. I do know that Urban Decay reached out to me late last month about a new launch but I was only able to give them my shipping into and other info was going to follow closer to the launch date. I imagine that PR mailing is this new Wild West Eyeshadow Palette.

Ironically the news of the Wild West Eyeshadow Palette comes so soon after I posted how much Urban Decay has changed and how the quality just wasn’t what it used to be. I expect no different from this launch unfortunately. There’s nothing really innovative here! It’s a very pretty palette but if you were hoping that Spring 2021 would bring some bold, pigmented rainbow hued eyeshadow palette from Urban Decay I’m sad to say that’s not happening here. It’s very Estee Lauder Bronze Goodness of them though isn’t it? The turquoise paired up with the bronze-y browns! I’ve always been a fond fan of that combo but not sure I need all these brown shadows in my life! My collection of brown and natural eyeshadows is pretty vast at this point!

But I’ve never said no to more…!

We’ll have to see of the Urban Decay Wild West Eyeshadow Palette brings some quality our way as that might make us overlook the redudant shade line up!

Are you excited about this one?

How to Wear Lipstick or Lipgloss Under Your Facial Mask Without Smearing It

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

One of the biggest conundrums of wearing a facial mask is you can’t wear lipgloss or lipstick without smearing it! How do you wear lipstick or lipgloss under your facial mask without smearing it? Well, you can always get yourself a long-wearing liquid lipstick! You can go through a herd of zombies with liquid lipstick on and come out of it looking as fabulous as you did eight hours before you started fighting your way through the zombie masses.

I am not a fan of liquid lipstick sadly. I hate mattes, I have dry lips, which makes liquid lipstick a big nope for me! There are formulas I enjoy but if I had to choose I’ll always be the girl that likes a nice shiny or gloss lip look and that’s impossible right now with COVID.

How can I enjoy my favorite lipsticks and lipglosses while I’m wearing a mask?
