Sephora Extra-Gentle Bi-Phase Makeup Remover For Eyes & Lips ($14) and one can hope it is as great as the original Sephora Bi-Phase Makeup Remover for Eyes.

You see, a long time ago Sephora Bi-Phase Makeup Remover for Eyes was one of my makeup life’s greatest joys. But somewhere along the line Sephora changed the formula which resulted in a stinging sensation when I used it around my eyes.

Oh woe is me.

I thought it was like the budget girl’s take on Lancome’s beloved Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover. In no way a dupe, but when you’re not wanting to dish a ton of cash on Lancome’s formula it sure did do the trick.

Sephora recently reformulated this and it is now available in an “extra-gentle” formula. The bi-formula is composed of a lotion and a milk which contains cottonseed oil to remove eye makeup easily while hydrating them.

Let’s hope it doesn’t burn!

Sephora Extra-Gentle Bi-Phase Makeup Remover For Eyes is available now at sephora.com.

Ingredients:
Water, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Butylene Glycol,Undecane, Tridecane, 1,2-Hexanediol,Fructose, Phenoxyethanol , Fragrance, Disodium EDTA, Gossypium Herbaceum (Cotton) Seed Oil, PPG-26-Buteth-26, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Xanthan Gum,Sodium Hydroxide,Caramel, Tocopherol, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, CI 16035 (Red 40).

CosRX Two in One Poreless Power Liquid is currently taken the K-Beauty world by storm and everyone is their mom is raving how great the formula is. Apparently people are raving it as glass skin in a bottle but I’ll reserve my judgement until I try it later today when my shipment arrives.

“WHAT? You ordered it! Why? You don’t have oily skin or acne!” Too true but as the Summer approaches my skin does produce a lot more oil and I was thinking or hoping this might be helpful during those warm, humid days to prevent oiliness.

The Two in One Poreless Power Liquid acts to not only control oil but also gently exfoliates your skin. It contains 88% willow bark water and salicylic acid to sooth acne-prone skin. The real kick of the product is the fact it is much gentler in nature compared to some of CosRX’s more powerful exfoliators and brighteners like BHA Blackhead Power Liquid and the Triple C Lightening Serum not to mention you can also combine Two in One Poreless Powder Liquid with these products without rendering them useless.

It also contains a natural astringent to help clear skin and give it that glass-like look everyone in Korea and Instagram is after. Apparently, Two in One Poreless Power Liquid sold out within hours in the Philippines and I imagine once it hits the US market this may it’ll sell out just as fast.

I’ll tell you all about it after I give it a whirl!

It’s now available at amazon.com and at ulta.com.

Ingredients:
Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Water, Butylene Glycol, Hydroxypropyl Cyclodextrin, Water, Pentylene Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Betaine Salicylate, Arginine, Betaine, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Allantoin, Panthenol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Carbomer, Cassia Obtusifolia Seed Extract, Menthyl Lactate, Mentha Haplocalix Extract

There are plenty of new lipsticks, lipglosses, lip balms, lip treatments and more in the works for the Spring 2018 season some of which are quite high-end and others will set you back a mere two bucks.

One of the stand out lip products for Spring would be the new Guerlain Rouge G Customizable Lipstick Bullet and Case. Guerlain Rouge G Lipstick is already a very luxurious, elegant, and showcase lipstick but they got a little fun this Spring with customizable cases. You can now choose from over 14 different case designs that are $17.50 each to custom your lipstick with. Technically speaking you aren’t actually removing the entire case but merely replacing the mirrored topper on your lipstick with a custom version of the original. As you may know, Guerlain’s tops feature a flip mirror which has a clasp that closes when you replace the lipstick’s cap. That’s basically the portion that’s customizable. It’s kind of nifty if you want a unique Guerlain Rouge G Lipstick casing. A full-size Rouge G is $51 and the new ones are $32 plus the special case is $17.50. I was relieved they didn’t raise the pricing by doing these new cases.

Aside, from Guerlain’s new customizable lipstick there are quite a few other goodies to choose from in the lip world at the moment here are a few new lip picks for Spring 2018.

As always Target is spot on with the latest and greatest beauty and makeup releases! And now with so much competition in the beauty world, Target does have to stay on their game with the newest beauty launches. As you might know they are currently expanding their beauty sections in stores but also, online they are starting to offer a lot more indie and niche brands as well as Korean brands such as A’pieu.

Target is still a good focus point for makeup and beauty options in my opinion simply because they carry brands that not everyone else is carrying. They have a unique round of brands that they are constantLY rotating and I find that very appealing. Plus, let’s be honest, we all go to Target probably once a week at the very least and of course, during that visit I’m sure you visit the beauty department. So, even if Sephora and Ulta specialize in beauty chances are you’re spending some of your money at Target too. Also, if you’re shopping at target.com every $20 beauty purchase will get you a $5 gift card!

Anyway, here’s some of the newest beauty and makeup can pick up at Target this month!
