Hear Me Out, What If There Was a Hairitage Scented Body Lotion and Body Wash

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

So, recently I rediscovered my love for Hairitage Haircare. I was cheating on it a little bit with lately with Kristen Ess. I ended up purchasing some of the new Hairitage products that popped up on walmart.com recently and that’s when my love affair began again. One of the best things about this line is the scent. I’m not even sure how to describe it. It’s fresh, clean but also, a bit floral? It makes my hair smell amazing!

Covergirl Halloween Outlast Lipstain Launches in 6 Spooky Shades

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

Covergirl Halloween Outlast Lipstain is now available. As you know Covergirl recently relaunched Outlast Lipstain in a wide range of shades for Spring 2024. The original pens launched way back in 2009 and had a chubbier design this was back when Revlon Just Bitten Lipstain + Balm and Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstains were all the rage! For some reason, the early 2000s we were all obsessed with lip stains. I remember when I purchased the Bourjois Paris Lipstains. They were my entire personality back then. I loved them! I had a peach one and a pink one and I used them till they drier up. Back then, even more budget-friendly brands were doing these stains like N.Y.C. New York Color Cosmetics (a brand gone but not forgotten) and their Smooch Proof 16 Hour Lip Stain. These were $3 bucks each back in 2011! 2024 could never! Sadly, my lipstain era ended a while back ago but I’ll fondly remember loving them!

Coveriglr Outlast Lipstain has extended their collection to include seven, limited-edition shades for Halloween that are $10 each. These come in special edition packaging with fangs, witches hats, pumpkins, and spider webs decorating the pen barrels.

New shades include:

  • Extra Witchy
  • Fangtastic
  • Pumpkin Carving
  • Spider’S Web
  • Spooky Bat
  • Sweet & Corny
  • Zom-Bean

From bright yellow to bold greens and oranges this collection is the perfect selection of spooky shades to celebrate Halloween! As a Halloween lover I’m really overjoyed they did this and wish more beauty brands did Halloween stuff. I mean, sure, we always get the awesome Wet n Wild Halloween Collections but I’d love to see more mid-level brands do Halloween Collections. Also, can we take a minute and remember how fun the Halloween drugstore beauty collections used to be? I absolutely loved going to Harmons back in the day and seeing all the fun stuff they had for Halloween. It’s just not like that anymore and it’s rather sad. Everything just migrated online and stores like CVS, Walgreens, etc…don’t really carry anything special or limited-edition anymore.

As for the Covergirl Halloween Outlast Lipstain they are available now at Amazon. Do you think you want them?

Milani Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Smoothing Primer Launches with Other Fall 2024 Picks

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

Milani Fall 2024 is starting to trickle in and they have a new Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Smoothing Primer that may interest some folks! Milani Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Smoothing Primer is a new $15.99 primer that promises to make your pores disappear. This one is odd as it looks like a moisturizing primer but on the other hand it appears to be a more solid silicone primer like Tatcha the Silk Canvas or E.L.F. Poreless Putty Primer! The word “concealer” also throws me off a bit as it doesn’t have any pigment and isn’t going to technically work to conceal anything.

That being said, it’s a cooling formula which mimics the NYX Face Freezie Cooling Primer + Moisturizer but are the textures the same or is it more like E.L.F.’s putty primer? According to Milani it has a whipped soufflé texture with moisture-locking micro-powders that act to blur and diffuse pores and fine lines while retaining moisture. It also, contains 5% glycerin which should give it a nice moisturizing base and even more moisture from Hyaluronic Acid and Blue Algae. They also, loaded it up with 3% Niacinamide for smoother, brighter skin. Sounds intriguing for sure.

Along with Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Smoothing Primer we are getting a new Lip Fetish Oil shade called Black Cherry Vanilla which is a deeper version of Clinique’s popular Black Honey shade. I actually really love the Lip Fetish Oils and I’m always up for adding a new shade to my collection.

Milani Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Smoothing Primer is available now on the website and should be launching soon at other mass retailers. Are you interested in trying it out?

Natasha, I Need a Warm Eyeshadow Palette Like a Hole In My Head But…

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

Natasha Denona I Need a Warm Eyeshadow Palette for Fall 2024 is on the way and I need another warm eyeshadow palette like I need a hole in my head but even I can admit this is a very pretty palette! If she’s on your wish list you can grab her now at ulta.com!

With 15 shades and two finishes of metal gloss and slip cream matte this new palette is a warm selection of shades with lighter peachy nudes and beiges. The interesting thing about this particular palette is it feels like a cooler yet warmer selection of shades. That’s probably an oxymoron but I’m going with it. I think the softer peaches look beautiful paired alongside the more darker, warmer shades. The palette is talc-free as well which is the new standard for powder products within the makeup world. One thing that I can say about this launch is finally someone hasn’t skipped over Fall and headed right into the Holiday Makeup Collections! I love you for that, Natasha! It feels like we get fewer and fewer Fall Makeup Collections and launches lately and the Holidays are slapped in our faces as soon as September rolls around.

The palette contains two finishes one of which is Natasha’s soft, silky mattes and the other is Metal Gloss which is a new finish that’s reflection and has a liquid-like finish on eyes.

What shades are in the Natasha Denona I Need a Warm Eyesahdow Palette? There are 15 and the shade names are:

  • Soft Spot 550CM (matte medium earthy brown)
  • Fancy 551M (metallic champagne)
  • Mellow 552CM (matte light-peachy nude)
  • Phenomena 553MC (multichrome-peach pink green)
  • Ripe 554CM (matte light-medium peach brown)
  • Elm 555SF (sparkling foiled light-bronzy nude)
  • Snug 557MG (metal-gloss soft bronze)
  • Vim 556CM (matte deep-warm brown)
  • Push 559SF (sparkling foiled medium-rusty rose gold)
  • Fervor 558CM (matte medium-warm caramel)
  • Pep 560CM (matte medium-warm brown)
  • Homie 561MG (metal-gloss warm nude)
  • Hanker 563DC (duo-chrome medium brown with green specks)
  • Dynamism 562M (metallic medium-dark golden brown)
  • Flashover 564SC (slip cream matte-medium clay brown)

How much is the Natasha Denona I Need a Warm Eyeshadow Palette? This palette is $69 and very tempting but if you have a little will power you might be able to wait for the Holiday sales to roll around to grab it up!

And someone has to ask the important questions, does the Natasha Denona I Need a Warm Eyeshadow Palette contain any repromoted shades? An excellent question! I could be wrong but none of these shade names sound familiar to me. That being said, it doesn’t mean that they won’t look like shades you may already have in other palettes from Natasha. Which is actually part of my problem as I would like to purchase this but my logical side is saying, “You really don’t need this and can easily replicate it!” I’m sort of hopeful a mini version will pop up that contains the shades like Ripe, Mellow, Fervor, and Soft Spot as I could see myself hitting pan easily on those colors!

The Natasha Denona I Need a Warm Eyeshadow Palette will be available shortly! Will you be grabbing it?
