Just a heads up Homeworx Candles finally restocked at ulta.com! They keep selling out within hours of restock. I THINK this is a final restock for this season but don’t quote me. They are an incredible value at 2 for $40 as they are a massive 18 oz each. I have several I purchased from QVC since Harry launched them there and I love them.
Well worth a look at if you love candles!
Enjoy!
Madonna x Too Faced Makeup Box Sets I betcha you didn’t see that one coming! I mean a Madonna x Too Faced Makeup Collection? Whoa! Too Faced founder, Jerrod Blandino announced on Instagram today that he worked with Madonna to create not one but two new makeup kits based on two looks that Madonna will be sporting during her upcoming Madame X Tour. How do you get your hands on the Madonna x Too Faced Collection? You’ll either have to attend one of her shows where the collection will be exclusively available or starting tomorrow you can shop the collection at her Madame X Pop Up Shop at 430 W 15 St in Manhattan. You gotta be quick though as they are apparently super limited at this location!
Since writing this post the collection has now launched online at toofaced.com! You can buy both kits for $75 at toofaced.com!
From the small video Jerrod posted there are two sets one is called the Medellin Set and it includes Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Lipstick, a 5-pan palette with what appears to be four shadows and 1 blush, Damn Girl! Mascara, and Better Than Sex Liquid Eyeliner. The other is called the I Rise Set and that includes Better Than Sex Mascara, a 5-pan palette which again seems to have a blush and 4 eyeshadows, Melted Matte Liquified Long Wear Lipstick, and a new chocolate eyeliner!
I guess the collection comes as no surprise as Jerrod has been posting about being besties with Madonna for a while. She sent him her skincare, she did a recent mini vid on Instagram using Too Faced Mascara, he mentioned going to a show of hers and having dinner with her, etc…seems about right that a makeup collection was in the works.
They haven’t mentioned a price for the Madonna X Too Faced Makeup Box Sets but I imagine it’ll be in the $39-$49 vicinity. Update: As per the price list at the Pop-Up Shop that Jerrod showed on an Insta-story it appears these are $75 each. Ouch! That’s pretty high considering the lipsticks in the set have gone on sale numerous times for $10 each!
At the risk of pissing off hardcore Madonna fans I thought the collection looked really phoned in. The Melted Matte Liquified Lipsticks don’t even look like new shades and the eyeshadow palette is such a snore. Not to mention Damn Girl! Mascara is so horrible! Or at least I think it is.
I would guess after her tour they’ll launch this on Too Faced’s website. I can’t imagine it just being available so very limited but who knows. We’ll have to wait and see.
What do you think of the Madonna X Too Faced Collection?
See the mini tease video on Jerrod’s Instagram!

This week I shared news of the newest Clinique Cheek Pop Palette in Cool Down but wait, there’s more! Clinique Warm Up Cheek Pop Palette for Holiday 2019 is yet another trio of blushes but in warmer shades that’s available exclusively at Dillard’s.
Hmmm! How fun! I wonder if we’ll see more of these as we head deeper into the Holiday season? Clinique Cheek Pop Palette in Warm Up contains the following shades:
Clinique must have heard me saying I couldn’t really pull off Cool Down (although, my mind has been changed since many if you have convinced me I need it)! Cola is such a gorgeous shade for Fall looks! I’m happy to see it available in a palette.
You can grab the Clinique Warm Up Cheek Pop Palette for $29 now at Dillard’s and Ulta.
Too Faced Watermelon Slice Face and Eye Palette ($42) is a new breakaway palette that has been added to the Tutti Frutti Makeup Collection which is available exclusively at Ulta. I’m actually a fan of the Tutti Frutti line and dare I say I like it a little more than the Peaches & Cream one that’s available exclusively at Sephora. This palette released just around the time that the new Palm Spring Dreams Eyeshadow Palette was added to Sephora’s Peaches & Cream Collection. Both are great palettes and well worth picking up! I do find it interesting though how Ulta and Sephora are in such direct competition with each other lately.
As I said above, I really like the Tutti Frutti Collection! The Cocktail Blush Duos are my favorite from the line! Did you catch the new Like My Melons? shade? It’s very pretty! I’m mentioning this because I actually purchased the Too Faced Tutti Frutti Watermelon Slice Face and Eye Palette because I was loving the blush shade in this palette that’s called Melonaire (oh Jerrod please stop with all the money references). It’s a really vibrant shade of watermelon pink! Very pretty.
Anyway, let’s take a closer look at the Too Faced Tutti Frutti Watermelon Slice Face and Eye Palette and my review below.
