Flower Pots Powder Blush ($10) launched earlier this Spring in five shades. These cute little pots may give you a little deja vu considering they look exactly like Milani Rose Powder Blush. These little blushes come up a rather interesting time as were just speaking about how imitation may or may not be the best form of flattery in the makeup world!

I picked up two of these a few days ago and they seem a bit smaller in size compared to Milani’s and the bloom design isn’t as strong etched. The blushes have a satiny finish yet they promise a flush of radiant color. Honestly, they have a flat finish in the package so, I’m doubting I’ll get any radiance from them. I’m eager to try though and see how I feel about them! Can’t judge by looking at them right? I’ve had a pretty good run with Flower Beauty so, I’m hoping for something good!

These are available now at walmart.com and exclusively at Walmart stores.

Have you tried them yet?

Thoughts?

I’ll have a review live shortly.

It’s almost Summer! Bikini and bathing suit weather is upon us. Geeks swim too, which means I need a Star Trek Bathing Suit ASAP.

Dude, thinkgeek.com just launched an entire array of Star Trek Bathing Suits and my Trekkie good nature freaked the eff out.

P.S. They have Next Generation Bathing Suits as well! Because you know, that Wesley Crusher crush you’ve been nursing all these years will finally come to fruition if you struck around in a maroon one piece, take a selfie, and tag Wil Wheaton or better still have a Korean couple moment and be all matchy match with Wesley. Remember when Wil was cute and bed head and beards wasn’t part of his daily routine?

Sorry, it’s not makeup but nerds unite and all that.

P.S.S. Journeys.com has Looney Tunes Converse, you’re welcome.

And by the way, meet my new boyfriend, Mick Tongraya. Oh my gorgeous. You’re so welcome for today’s eye candy. Whatever you do don’t watch Karn La Krang Neung…Nai Hua Jai, he cries a lot in it. If you can get past the sniveling he does take off his shirt a lot to make up for all the sobbing. Consolation prize! By the way, that ink is not real!

Disclaimer: No Trekkies, Thai boys, Wil Wheatons, or bathing suits were harmed in the making of this post.

Happy Thursday!

I’m really diligent about my savings. I own my houses, no mortgage. I have no dept because credit cards scare me. And if I do use my credit cards I’ll pay the bill the very next month in full. I am leasing my cars because I like to change them every two to three years and I have a rather huge health insurance bill that feels like I’m burning money because I never use it since I’m healthy (thank god! but it still feels like throwing money into a pit of fire since it costs a ton and the coverage seems to suck hard! The joys of being self employed and having to rely on yourself for your own benefits and retirement). I have separate checking accounts that I use for pleasure and life expenses. I like to see where my money is going and how I’m spending it so I keep things separate.

Why am I telling you this?

Because I have a hard time saving my Ulta Rewards!

Do You Save Your Ulta Points Or Do You Spend Them Right Away?!

Origins has a new collection of Flower Fusion Facial Sheet Masks that look rather intriguing although I find myself questioning the seven dollar each price tag. Ouch! I’m spoiled with Asian Sheet Masks that are typically cheap as chips so, telling me I have to pay $7 for a single sheet mask has me cringing in horror. But being the sheet mask junkie I am, it won’t stop me from buying at least one or two of these to try out.

I feel sheet masks have evolved in the Western market considerably and we have so many more options available then we did a few year’s ago but I still think we have a ways to go before they become as huge as they are in Asia. It’s refreshing to see brands like Origins getting in on the trend though.

Let’s take a look at the Flower Fusion Facial Sheet Masks.
