Happy Tuesday! Can you speak to the gods of hard work for me and ask them to make the week go faster? I LOVE daylight savings time with a passion! It makes everything so much cozier not to mention the day stretches on for ages! I feel like I have so much more time to get things done. But sometimes, at work, it seems like the drags on 🙂 This week is pretty busy so, I’m kind of sitting here like, “Please be Friday! Please be Friday! Please be Friday!” If I keep wishing the time away maybe it’ll go a bit faster!

How’s your week going?

Get any major shopping done at Sephora’s sale? WOULD you BELIEVE I haven’t submit yes to my cart yet? Whoa! I’m still waffling on a few things1 If you aren’t taking part in this year’s sale or you can’t because you aren’t Rouge or VIB or you’re just on a Sephora boycott you can still enjoy plenty of good sales. Lucky enough Macy’s and Nordstrom are both doing sales on high-end makeup and beauty! Which means you can bypass Sephora altogether if you like.

Here’s 12 makeup and beauty picks on sale now at Nordstrom!

Smashbox Planetary Cheek Palette from the Holiday 2019 Cosmic Celebration Collection is a new, limited edition cheek palette that contains two baked highlighters and one blush. I picked this up early last month at Ulta and it’s quickly become by go to cheek palette of choice the last few weeks!

I love a good blush palette but I’m not a big highlighter person as you know. I love my Becca Highlighters but I’m not really into many others. I was tempted by the Cosmic Celebration Planetary Cheek Palette because of the blush shade. I know really smart and logical purchase decisions I’m making over here by buying a palette just because I liked one shade. Don’t lie though! Betcha done the same thing at least once in your life right?

Yeah, I do!

Sorry not sorry.

Tarte Sea Foil Finger Multi-Tasking Eye & Cheek Palette ($32) is a new cream eyeshadow and blush palette that launched a few short weeks ago exclusively at Sephora. This seems such a quiet launch or maybe I’m not paying attention but I really didn’t see Tarte forcing this down my throat across social media. And you know what? That somehow made it more appealing. Constantly tweeting and Instagramming a new arrival actually annoys the hell out of me so, the fact they didn’t overly promote this made me want it. Add to the fact, I loved the Tarte Foil Finger Paints Shadow Palette and I was good to go ahead and purchase this!

First off, let it be known I love this includes a blush shade this time around. The original palette was all about the eyeshadows but this version includes two eyeshadows, one glitter topper, and a gorgeous golden peach blush that Tarte needs to release individually because it’s that good.

I recently purchased the Earth to Skin Super Fruits Avocado Overnight Mask which everyone is comparing to the Glow Recipe Avocado Melt Sleeping Mask that I love so much.

I collaborated with Walmart recently again on a few new beauty picks. It was a paid post but the items I featured were purchased by me and the thoughts I shared were my own. One of the items I purchased for that post was the Earth to Skin Super Fruits Avocado Overnight Mask. Because hey, at $6.96 I really did have to review this and see how it compared to the Glow Recipe version at $45 bucks.

Here’s my review and comparison to Glow Recipe’s formula.
