5 stars out of 5

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Setting Powder ($32) is a new loose setting powder available in eight shade selections launched with the brand’s new line of Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Concealer. Since I was purchasing the new concealer I admit I felt compelled to complete the purchase with the Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Setting Powder even though I’m a pretty faithful fan to my tried and true Ben Nye Banana Powder.

I think I have some sort of weird mentality of, “Oh the concealer would work best if I also get the powder they launched from the same brand!”. I can’t be alone thinking this! Anyone ever feeling that way when shopping makeup or particularly skincare? Got the moisturizer, need the matching serum from the same brand and so on and so fourth. Or maybe I’m alone in my oddball makeup logic.

None the less, somehow, someway, Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Instant Retouch Setting Powder ended up in my cart in two shades.

Etude House Happy with Piglet Color in Liquid Lips Air Mousse Review & Swatches

5 stars out of 5

Etude House Happy with Piglet Color in Liquid Lips Air Mousse ($10) is a new, limited edition Disney Collaboration that launched in Korea to celebrate the Lunar Year, Year of the Pig. I can’t think of a cuter way to celebrate Lunar Year because who doesn’t love Piglet? He’s adorable! Cuter than Pooh!

When the Etude House x Piglet Collection launched earlier this month I was all about hauling a few items from the collection because it was too cute not to pass up. I did struggle to not just haul every single piece and had to keep reminding myself how much makeup I already own and how many shades of Color in Liquid Lips Air Mousse I already own as well as this formula isn’t new.

But it’s Piglet who can resist?

Wet n Wild Mega Jelly Primer Review & Swatches

4 stars out of 5

Wet n Wild Mega Jelly Face Primer ($7.99) is a new jelly primer that launched for Spring 2019 along with new Jelly Eyeshadows. I think the idea of this might seem fresh, unique, and innovative but back in 2013 Illamasqua launched Hydra Veil Primer which is pretty much identical to this formula. To this day I still use Hydra Veil Primer but hell, at $7.99 the new Wet n Wild Mega Jelly Primer is way cheaper!

3 stars out of 5

Lancome Le Monochromatique is a new eyes, cheeks, and lips cream-to-powder tint that acts as an eyeshadow, blush, and lipstick which launched in nine shade selections for $25 each. I headed to Nordstrom and picked up one shade to try out sadly, they didn’t have the really bold, bright red shade I wanted called Soiree so I ended up with a bright pink called Petit Bisou. I was going to buy a few more shades but decided against it since I wanted to try the formula out first.

Here’s my review, swatches, and thoughts on Lancome Le Monochromatique!

Tarte #Remixnatural Eyeshadow Palette Proof that This Brand is Listening to the Cries of No More Nudes

Tarte #Remixnatural Eyeshadow Palette ($24) arrives today with a colorful assortment of eyeshadows and totally proves that maybe just maybe Tarte has its ears to the ground and has heard you cries that you don’t want to see yet another nude eyeshadow palette!

#Remixnatural Eyeshadow Palette is a smaller, cheaper option compared to the recently launched Pro Remix Amazonian Clay Eyeshadow Palette and features eight shades in vibrant shades of hot pink, purple, and blue!

Shades include:

  • This Is It (icy shimmer)
  • All In (sky blue shimmer)
  • Go For It (royal blue with blue glitter)
  • You Can (peachy pink shimmer)
  • Happening (hot pink sheen)
  • Hustle (royal purple sheen)
  • Ambitious (maroon shimmer)
  • Risktaker (yellow gold shimmer with gold glitter)

It’s nice to see Tarte thinking outside their neutral box and creating such a colorful and fun palette for Spring 2019.

Will you be picking up the Tarte #Remixnatural Eyeshadow Palette?
