Smashbox Cali Kissed Face Palette & The Cali Contour Palette for Spring 2019

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Smashbox Cali Kissed Face Palette ($39) is giving me all kinds of NARS vibes over here! I think I needs it. This compact is filled with four shimmering highlighters and two matte blushes to mix and match to create that perfect glow! Doesn’t it look like something NARS palette? Dunno why but I’m totally get that vibe!

Along with the Cali Kissed Face Palette there’s a new the Cali Contour Palette ($39) which contains four matte bronzer and two pearlescent powders to shape, bronze and highlight.

I could prob do without the bronzer palette but the blush one I need. Both are available now!

P.S. American Gods is back! Praise the Gods! I watched part of Sunday’s episode early this AM and can’t wait to get to the rest. I had hopes Gillian Anderson returns as Media. She was so brilliant! Sadly, she and Kristin Chenoweth won’t be returning for S2. The show has a lot of ups and down sadly, since it went on hiatus two years ago. Espeically creative ones! I’m happy to see it return but not sure I’m so into the creation of new characters like “New Media” played by Kahyun Kim. Shrug! But the series is off to a good start so far. Let’s see how it goes.

3 stars out of 5

Formula 10.0.6 Bare Face Beauty Skin-Moisturizing Cleansing Oil ($8.99) is probably one of the worst products you can put on your face if you’re prone to breakouts or one of the most wonderful ones if you’re dry.

It’s debatable.

Pixi pHenomenal Gel Balancing pH or Just Hydrating Really Well?

5 stars out of 5

Pixi pHenomenal Gel ($24) is a new gel moisturizer that was created for use after cleansing to restore moisture, balance skin, and neutralize pH levels. Sounds interesting right? That’s because it actually is. It contains a host of very moisturizing ingredients that act to restore hydration to skin very quickly after cleansing or a rather harsh round of physical exfoliation.

But does it balance pH and restore them to their natural levels?

Questionable.

4 stars out of 5

Clinique Cheek Pop On-The-Glow Trio Palette is a new blush, bronzer, and highlighter palette that launched for Spring 2019 which contains three full-size powders. If you recall Clinique the Get Cheeky Palette which everyone loved not only because it was a great value but also, because the formula is so fab. I fell in love with the Cheek Pop Blush formula when it launched a few years ago (It was also part of my Spring 2014 Blush Hit List). I wouldn’t be adverse to Clinique possibly revamping the line with a shimmer finish version! Anyone with me on that?! I’d buy them all!

Let’s check out my review of the Clinique Cheek Pop On-The-Glow Trio Palette below!
