Comptoir Sud Pacifique Discovery Collection Still Delightful Despite Poor Packaging!

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

The Comptoir Sud Pacifique Discovery Collection ($18) is a new fragrance sampler set that launched at Sephora recently which I ended up purchasing with my 20% off Rouge discount. It’s already fairly priced but the extra discount is even more incentive to purchase it.

Sephora has been doing a great job of adding many niche fragrances to their permanent line which is great but what makes this situation better is the fact that they also have discovery sample sets available for many of their niche lines. Niche fragrance isn’t cheap by any means and it’s really, really nice to be able to purchase a sample set that includes all or most of the fragrances from a particular house for a great price. These sample sets not only give you an outlet to try before you buy but also if you simply can’t afford full-sizes of these fragrances you can still buy a sample set and enjoy them!

I Need Charlotte Tilbury Magic Away Liquid Concealer and Genius Magic Powder

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

Charlotte Tilbury Magic Away Liquid Concealer ($32) launched a few days along with her new Genius Magic Powder ($45) and I just need these two items in my life ASAP. I’m always for new concealer as you know and this one looks mighty hydrating although, I must admit I had a rather meh experience with Charlotte’s Mini Miracle Eye Wand Dynamic Duo Lift & Light Reflector.

This formula is available in 16 shade selections and apparently provides full coverage although I have to admit after watching videos it looks more like sheerer coverage but I’ll have to try it myself and decide. It promises to conceal dark circles and imperfections with a fresh second skin finish!

Along with the concealer Charlotte launched Genius Magic Powder in three shade selections. I honestly thought this was a concealer setting powder at first but turns out it’s an all over facial powder with light-diffusing finish to blur the appearance of imperfections. It does contain “silky mica” which creates a “brightening radiance” and that had me a little unsure about my purchase as I don’t want to look like a disco ball! We’ll have to see how it turns out. It is mattifying but also hydrating as it’s infused with Tsubaki and Squalane oil.

Has anyone tried either of these products yet?

Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Full Coverage Foundation & A Larger Size Concealer for Fall 2018

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

Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Full Coverage Foundation ($12) and a new larger size Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Full Coverage Concealer ($10) that’s 0.45 oz in size (originally 0.11 oz) are on the way for Fall 2018.

I dunno about you but a larger size of the concealer is everything I most definitely need in my life as this formula is pigmented AF, creamy, lightly hydrating, and long-wearing for seven bucks! Seven DOLLARS! It’s amazing to say the least! And now a new larger size that’s nearly triple the size for three extra bucks? Sign me up!

Along with the larger size concealer they’ll be a new Makeup Revolution Conceal & Define Full Coverage Foundation launching in 28 shade selections with a creamy, pigmented formula inspired by the concealer!

Both launch at www.revolutionbeauty.com on September 5th and hopefully at Ulta.com on the same day although, right now you can still get the small concealer at Ulta!
