2 stars out of 5

Urban Decay Naked Cherry Eyeshadow Palette ($48) is a new cherry inspired eyeshadow palette with 12 shimmer and matte shades of eyeshadow. As you may know from a prior post I did Urban Decay may have discontinued their beloved original Naked Eyeshadow Palette but they do have upcoming colorful options up their sleeves that will be added to the Naked Collection including a Naked AF and Naked Honey Eyeshadow Palette and of course, this new Naked Cherry Eyeshadow Palette.

News leaked mighty fasted on Naked Cherry across social media and promo images from UD arrived soon after but sadly, didn’t quite live up to the “cherry” in the name since this palette turned out to be a warmer selection of cranberries versus any true red or cherry shades in my humble opinion.

Garnier Fall 2018 has arrived with new SkinActive Micellar Eye Makeup Remover Pads, SkinActive Glow Boost Illuminating Moisturizer, and other goodies to keep your skin clean, hydrated, and glowing.

This feels a little late to me as I typically remember Garnier likes to launch their latest skincare around back to school time but hey, I’ll take whatever they throw my way as I tend to find a gem or two when they launch new products. I think I’m going to love those new SkinActive Micellar Eye Makeup Remover Pads ($8.99)! There’s a hundred of them in one package! Sweet! Each pad is pre-soaked with Garnier Micellar Water which I’m sure many of you love as much as I do. They were created for eye makeup removal but I’m sure if you’re being all “I’m too lazy to remove my makeup” you can use them on your face too!

Here’s what else is new from Garnier this Fall!

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

My list of makeup and beauty I’m not buying seems to be rather large this year! It shouldn’t be though since I tend to get mighty excited about Holiday Makeup Collections but this year, well, I feel like there’s a lot of repetitive sets and palettes that I don’t really feel I need.

So, this is anti-haul post of sorts I guess!

Here’s what I’ll not be buying in the makeup and beauty world at the moment and why.
