Beauty Blender Bounce Liquid Whip Long Wear Foundation is a new liquid foundation with a velveteen matte finish that’s launching in 32 shades on July 24th and I have to admit I’m intrigued. In a repetitive beauty world, it’s a little hard to capture my attention lately. It’s also hard to create something truly unique and different especially when it comes to foundation. I can’t speak for the formula but Beauty Blender Bounce Foundation does have some might unique packaging.

Arriving in a square pump jar the packaging acts as a palette of sorts which allows you to pump a small amount of the foundation right onto the surface of the packaging. It has a well shaped like a beauty blender which allows the foundation to pool into it and you can bounce your Beautyblender right into it for easy application. I think the packaging is rather brilliant but I imagine it can get a little messy at times plus if you’re a germ freak you might not love the idea of having your foundation on a surface that hasn’t been sanitized first.

Packaging aside the formula itself sounds quietly lovely and is giving me Benefit Hello Happy Soft Blur Foundation. Apparently it has a 24 hour wear (I have my doubts), a velveteen matte finish, and contains Hyaluronic Acid and Birch Extract. It acts to even out your skin and provides a natural skin-finish. I don’t wear a lot of foundation so I’m all about really lightweight natural looking foundation formulas.

You might wonder if a company that’s spent most of their beauty life creating tools to apply foundation knows anything about actual foundation. That’s a good question and remains to been seen!

I think I’ll be picking this up when it officially launching and see what I think!

How about you?

Beauty Blender Bounce Liquid Whip Long Wear Foundation is available now at sephora.com.

Kokie Cosmetics Be Bright Illuminating Concealer ($8) is a creamy concealer available in nine shade selections that I recently picked up at Walmart. Yes, Walmart. I’ve been hearing about Kokie here and there and around the Internet and Instagram but I never bothered ordering it from their site. On recent dreaded trip into the evil pits of Walmart I came across a rather brightly lit display of Kokie Cosmetics at Walmart which had a ton of different options from the brand’s permanent collection. I was a little surprised to see it pop up at Walmart in all honesty as Ulta seems to be the one snatching up the rights to brands lately and Kokie somehow quietly slipped into Walmart.

It’s actually not available in all Walmart stores as I did come across it at one Walmart but two others I visited didn’t have it. So, I guess it’s sort of a hit or miss situation if you’ll run into this brand at your local store but it is sold online at walmart.com should like to shop it there.

NARS Atomic Blonde Eye & Face Palette ($59) and it’s all about creating sizzling looks for Summer. This travel palette contains a limited edition bronzer and highlighter as well as four eyeshadows two of which are limited edition in an easy to travel with palette!

You get:

• Eyeshadows in Golden bronze shimmer (LE), Shimmering copper, Metallic warm copper (LE), Bitter chocolate infused with gold
• Shimmering Warm Gold Highlighting Powder
• Diffused Brown Bronzing Powder

If this contained a blush this would be my ideal travel companion for Summer. Why? Because I’m the type of person that wants to bring ten different 50 shade eyeshadow palettes with me when I go on vacation or if I’m traveling. Meanwhile I do like the same look using all the makeup I travel with! WHY!!!!!!!!!? This would be perfect for me as it contains just the right shades of warm eyeshadow that I favor as well as a nice highlighter and a bit of bronzer for warmth. Adding in a blush would have made it even better! I know I’m not really a bronzer or highlighter person but this shades look like they’d work rather nicely together!

I might just pick this one up!

My donations to PBS are well worth it.
