5 stars out of 5

Maybelline Lifter Gloss Lip Gloss Makeup With Hyaluronic Acid ($8.99 or Buy 1, Get 1 50% Off) is a new high-shine that give lips a fuller appearance that launched with the Maybelline Summer 2020 Collection.

I realize absolutely no one cares about lipgloss at the moment but one day, not sure when, we’ll all be able to wear it again! None the less when I saw Maybelline Lifter Gloss Lipgloss at Target I couldn’t resist grabbing a few shades as they quite looked lovely in the display. There are eight total shades available and many are really nice nudes for the Fall season (if at which point we can wear lipgloss that is).

Too Faced Peach Perfect Instant Coverage Concealer As Crappy As They Say But On Clearance Why Not?

2 stars out of 5

You may remember the utter joy I felt when Too Faced Peach Perfect Instant Coverage Concealer launched earlier this year because I was every so hopeful that it would be Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Concealer which is long gone but never truly forgotten!

Like most of the Peaches and Cream Collection sooner or later you’ll be able so snag Too Faced Peach Perfect Instant Coverage Concealer for $10 or $12 when it either goes on clearance or Sephora offers some daily deal on it. If it was available at Ulta (the Peaches and Cream Collection is exclusive to Sephora) I’d say you’d say it during the 21 Days of Beauty but since it isn’t I’m sure Sephora will offer it on some sale soon.

I got it for $12 or $15 I can’t remember the exact price but I didn’t pay full price. Sephora had some daily deal thing and this was one of the items on sale. I’m actually glad I never dove right in and paid full price for it because it’s just as crappy as you’ve been hearing about but on sale? On sale I can make this stuff work like a boss.

Is Mother upset that Wet n Wild Mega Last High-Shine Lip Color ($2.99) evokes the spirit of her LuxeTrance Lipstick? One does wonder! Notice that little lip accent on the tube? Feels very Pat Mcgrath doesn’t it? I thought so!

Wet n Wild Mega Last High-Shine Lip Color is a fairly new lipstick that launched a few months ago along with Mega Last Matte Lip Color (with the black packaging this looks even more Pat Mcgrath) in 14 shades each. I was intrigued by the High-Shine formula as you know me I’m all about shiny lipsticks and feel like the world needs more of ’em! And at $2.99 each these were an tempting little pick up.

Here’s my review and thoughts!

Revlon WW84 Colorstay Cream Eyeshadow Review & Swatches

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.
4 stars out of 5

Revlon WW84 Colorstay Cream Eyeshadow ($8.49) in Chocolate is from the limited edition Revlon x WW84 or Revlon Wonder Woman 1984 Makeup Collection. The Revlon Wonder Woman Collection is finally starting to trickle into stores as the film was supposed to be released already this past Summer but was held up due to the pandemic and will instead have a theatrical release in October. The collection is broken into two parts with shades inspired by Diana aka Wonder Woman and the other half is inspired by Barbara Ann Minerva aka Cheetah.

Revlon WW84 isn’t the first time the brand has ventured into comics! In 2014, there was a Revlon Electric Chrome Spider-Man Collection that was available which included nail polishes and glosses. I’d take the Spider-Man Collection over this Wonder Woman one to be honest. The WW84 Collection is really, really phoned in. The only unique part of the collection might be the Revlon X WW84 The Wonder Woman Face and Eye Palette aside from many of the other pieces are re-promoted shades and products.

Of course, the one thing I like from this collection, the Revlon WW84 Colorstay Cream Eyeshadow Review in Chocolate, is not only a re-promoted shade but also, has the most minimal packaging details as most of the WW84 details are on the outer packaging that end up in the trash as the actual cream eyeshadow pot is just the regular packaging. The packaging nod to Wonder Woman is just some simple red and gold with WW84 splashed across it so yeah, this is pretty phoned in.

The MAC Wonder Woman Collection really nailed it but sadly, Revlon x WW84 is a bust.

Bath and Body Works Sugared Cherry Crisp A Yummy Treat for Fall

5 stars out of 5

A sweet, tart bite of cherry, a crumbled graham cracker, and a touch of vanilla make Bath and Body Works Cherry Crisp Fragrance Mist a yummy treat for Fall. Bath and Body Works Sugared Cherry Crisp is a new, limited edition fragrance for Fall 2020. This was a pretty hyped up fragrance on Instagram and I was eager to check it out and see how it smelled as I do so love a good cherry fragrance and of course, I’m passionate about gourmands.

I ordered mine online as it was unavailable in store when I went. They had most all the Fall Collection but sadly, Sugared Cherry Crisp wasn’t one of the scents available. I ended up ordering it online with some antibac and a few other items since I had a 20% Off Coupon to offset the crummy shipping!

Here’s some thoughts about it.
