Covergirl Outlast All-Day Color & Gloss (9.99) is a highly pigmented lip color that includes a lipgloss to add shine and moisture. These are a new Covergirl Spring 2017 pick and will likely become a permanent part of the brand’s core collection. They appear to be retake on the original Outlast All-Day Custom Lip Color but not a replacement for it.
Let’s take a look!
Maybelline the 24K Nudes Eyeshadow Palette ($11.99) is a new, permanent 12 shade eyeshadow palette that launched with the Maybelline Spring 2017 Collection. This is the 5th edition of larger eyeshadow palettes that Maybelline launched which all started with the introduction of the The Nudes Eyeshadow Palette as well as others like The Blushed Nudes, Rock Nudes, etc….
These were created after the success of larger nude palettes from brands like Too Faced and Urban Decay. I think Maybelline wanted to corner a market of the drugstore eyeshadow palette that wasn’t quite there with a launch of a larger palette. Now brands like NYX had already done larger nude, natural palettes but more mainstream brands like Maybelline, Revlon, etc…hadn’t quite reached a larger palette launch until the original Maybelline Nudes Eyeshadow Palette came along. I know I was excited to see Maybelline doing a Urban Decay Naked-like palette.
Sadly, many of the palettes have been duds with drier and difficult to blend shades.
But I’m a sucker so, of course, I’ve tried most of them and even though I’ve been plenty burned I still decided to haul the Maybelline the 24K Nudes Eyeshadow Palette.

Clinique is all about the vitamin C lately. Recently, they launched the new Fresh Pressed Daily Booster with Pure Vitamin C 10% which look mighty interesting. Along with the boosters, there’s a new Clinique Fresh Pressed Renewing Powder Cleanser with Pure Vitamin C ($32.50) is a new powder cleanser that contains fresh Vitamin C to brighten and retexture skin. Apparently, the formula is non-drying and doesn’t strip while acting to brighten up skin. The cleanser comes in individual packets which acts to keep the Vitamin C fresh. This particular cleanser is meant for morning use to jump start skin. Pour the powder into your hands, add water, lather, and cleanse.
I’m always in turmoil about cleansers that contain vitamin C as you’re essentially washing them away, what exactly are the benefits? But when you promise be brightening, well, I’m all hands on board.
Hmmm!
Dilemma!
28 packets of Clinique Fresh Pressed Renewing Powder Cleanser with Pure Vitamin C is $32.50 and available now at nordstrom.com.
