Revlon PhotoReady Instant Cheek Maker ($11.99) is the a new 2-in-1 blush and highlighter stick and possibly the next big gimmick to enter your beauty life that could potentially work! So, when I saw the promo image for this I was like, “Wait, what?”

If you don’t read the description you’ll probably stare at it a sec and think, is that a brush? What’s going on there? I know it took me a second to realize it was a cream blush/highlighter stick. The ergonomic shape is slightly misleading as it looks like a brush but in reality it’s a cream stick that’s shaped in a way to fit the contour of your cheek and give you that perfect blushed and highlighted look!

Who has thoughts of L�Oreal The One Sweep Eyeshadow? This just totally had me going back! Must be the “transform your look in one easy swipe” marketing!

I’m willing to try them as I do so love a glistening blush so at the very least maybe I can get a nice glowy look from Revlon Photoready Instant Cheek Maker.

Revlon launched these in three shade selections and they are starting to pop online for sale and should be available soon in stores too one would hope!

What do you think of Revlon PhotoReady Instant Cheek Maker?

Gimmick or brilliant?

Update: Tarte Sugar Rush has launched and I have feelings about it. Check out my latest article on the launch by clicking here!

Tarte is hinting a new “Sugar Rush” Spring 2019 Makeup Collection that arrives in a little over a month. I have no idea what it could be but if it’s candy inspired I’m all about it. Candy can be fun so long as Tarte doesn’t go too childish with the launch!

Our last venture into candy inspired makeup was when Too Faced launched their Kandee Johnson Collection which had some fun items like the I Want Kandee Eyeshadow Palette.

Tarte just launched a #Remixnatural Eyeshadow Palette as well as Tarteist Pro Remix Amazonian Clay Palette both of which are very colorful! The #Remixnatural is particularly fun and candy-like so, is this a preview of shades we might see in the Sugar Rush Collection?

All I can say is don’t screw this up Tarte! There’s good potential to create a fun collection for Spring here!

What do you think they have in the works with this collection?

Revlon Crystal Aura is a new, limited edition Spring 2019 Makeup Collection featuring a new velvety Crystal Aura Putty Powder Eye Beam and some other interesting pieces that have me curious!

I have to admit Revlon Crystal Aura has the feel of Almay’s Cosmic Collection that launches for Spring/Summer 2018. For some reason, it sort of gives off that galactic makeup vibe that drugstores were trying to make a thing last year. I’m not really into all the metallic, holographic, iridescent finishes these collections tend to concentrate on but I have to admit Revlon has me intrigued with a few of the products from this launch and I’m excited to check them out.

Here’s a look at Revlon Crystal Aura Spring 2019.

Let me know what you think!

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Luxury Palette ($53) is a gorgeous rose eyeshadow palette that’s sold out the first time it launched on Charlotte’s site and again, when it was re-released a few months ago. I picked this up the first time it launched but I didn’t review since it’s rather frustrating to review a palette that no one can buy if they end up liking it you know? Thankfully enough, the re-release of the Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Eyeshadow Palette is looking good because so far it’s staying in stock.

Let’s check out my thoughts, review, and swatches on this super popular palette!
