Burt’s Bees Complete Nourishment Facial Oil and Hapi Mari!

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

Burt’s Bees Complete Nourishment Facial Oil ($19.99) is the brand’s first ever facial oil that’s made up of a concentrated blend of oils such as rosehip, jojoba, and evening primrose. For normal to dry skin types, this facial oil is paraben-free and can be used alone or mixed with your favorite moisturizer to soften, smooth, and hydrate skin.

I feel like my facial oil collection is getting a little crazy lately. I’ve been rotating a ton of different ones including the new SheaMoisture 100% Virgin Coconut Oil Daily Hydration Overnight Facial Oil I recently picked up. I’m quite eager to give Burt’s Bees Complete Nourishment Facial Oil a try but I keep telling myself I really should finish the oils I already have in rotation! But you know I’ll totally go against my logical side and allow my illogical side free reign to purchase this.

Head desk!

Skincare addict problems.

Burt’s Bees Complete Nourishment Facial Oil is available now at Ulta.com.

By the way, I just started watching Hapi Mari! I really liked the manga, it’s rare you can find good josei in English it seems like most manga is shojo. But I think it’s debatable whether this is actually a josei or not (it’s very PG) but none the less it’s terribly cute and P.S. it’s really short if you’re looking for a quick read that doesn’t go on for volumes and volumes. I haven’t had time to watch the live action drama. I still don’t actually haha…! It’s been really busy at work but I’ve been catching in a few minutes here and there. I’m nearly done with episode 1 and it’s quite cute so far. Oh my gosh it took me like a week to watch the 36 minute episode, that’s how crazy I’ve been! None the less I’m eager to see how it turns out….! Looking forward to the next episodes. Anyone see it/read it?

Happy Monday 🙂

Kevyn Aucoin The Exotique Diamond Eye Gloss for Spring 2017

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

Eye gloss continues to dominate the beauty world this Spring earlier this month Yves Saint Laurent Eye Gloss Smudger launched to restart the trend! The trend comes back every couple of years but it never quite catches on to a point that everyone is rushing to their nearest beauty counter to scoop up eye glosses left and right.

Kevyn Aucoin The Exotique Diamond Eye Gloss ($38) might garner some interest with it’s promise of transforming any eyeshadow’s finish into a patent leather, high-shine one. Apply your eyeshadow as you normally would and pat a small amount of the Exotique Diamond Eye Gloss on your eyelid to give it a glossy finish. You can also use this on the your cheekbones or cupid’s bow to add a hint of dewiness.

Kevyn Aucoin The Exotique Diamond Eye Gloss is available at sephora.com and nordstrom.com.

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment Perfecting Wand Launches

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

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment Perfecting Wand ($24) is a new exfoliating lip treatment that gently buffs away dead skin cells on your lips with a moisturizing sugar formula that promises to provide up to six hours of moisture. The formula is infused with loofah oil which helps to fight dryness as well as cupuaçu and mango butter, black current seed and grapeseed oils.

This is actually a leave on treatment and the applicator tip act to gently massage lips and buff away dryness as the formula hydrates and smooths. It reminds me a bit of the Pixi Nourishing Lip Polish. I actually kind of love the idea of gently buffing my lips during the application process as it’ll likely give me that just bitten look. Beauty confession, I totally bite my lips a little before applying gloss to get the blood flowing and to plump them up a bit. It kind of gives them a bee stung look! This treatment is a lot less easier though 🙂

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment Perfecting Wand is available now at Sephora.com.

Hard Candy Sheer Envy Coconut Primer Stick Review

This was provided to me by a brand for review and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post but all opinions are my own.

Hard Candy Sheer Envy Coconut Primer Stick ($8) is a new, refreshing facial primer stick that’s a part of the Hard Candy Spring 2017 Collection. This little stick preps makeup for skin with a cool, refreshing feel. Primer sticks like this aren’t new by any means! A few year’s ago they were pretty popular and still are in Asia. You likely read my review for a few already like the DuWop Flight Stick, Skin Food Facial Ice Vita Cooling Stick, Milk Makeup Cooling Water, and E.L.F. Studio Daily Moisture Stick.

But there’s always room for hydrating sticks in my beauty arsenal.

Here’s a review and some good thoughts on the Hard Candy Sheer Envy Coconut Primer Stick.
