Too Faced I Want Kandee Banana Pudding Brightening Face Powder ($30) is a new all over banana setting powder that smells like bananas which released with the Kandee Johnson x Too Faced Collection. The reviews are in on this and most of them are very, very positive and this was the product that sold out the quickest from Kandee’s Collection as well. Most people are asking it return as a permanent product since they liked it so much. I imagine at some point they might restock it in permanent Too Faced packaging but as of now its been labeled limited-edition which could mean it might never return. But as with most limited edition products it’ll likely return in some way or another I believe.

Here’s my review and thoughts on it.

Sephora the Matte has the ability to turn your sink into a make-shift vanity. How? This sturdy foldable matte goves over your sink to create a hard surface to lay your makeup and other beauty items. It’s actually inspired by girls or guys who are getting ready in smaller bathrooms in the morning but I think anyone can use it.

A fold-able mat that goes over a sink to create a hard surface for makeup and other beauty products. I don’t think you technically need to be in a small space to use this. I have a larger bathroom vanity with two sinks and plenty of counter space but I’d still make a lot of use out of this I think because I’m chronically dropping stuff into the sink as I lean over to apply my makeup. This is a pretty brilliant idea! I wonder if it works as well as it is sounds.

It folds up when not in use and apparently when it is folded up it’s about the size of a tablet which means it will store easily and travel well!

It’s $26 and available now at Sephora.com.

I’m thinking of buying one! It seems like a rather brilliant little idea!

Another day, another blush palette from Tarte! Tarte Blush Bliss Palette is the third Holiday 2017 Blush Palette we’re seeing from the brand this year! Thus far, they’ve released the Big Blush Book 3 as well as the Blush Bazaar Palette. I’m not keeping counting (Sure I am!) but there’s also the new Tarte Cheek Charmers Amazonian Clay Blush Set offered exclusively at Macy’s. Yup, Tarte’s on a role to say the least.

Tarte Blush Bliss Palette promo images are promising! With a shot of bold, colorful blushes in the following shades (and thankfully no highlighter ones!):

• Genuine (pinky apricot)
• Breathtaking (soft rose pink)
• Graceful (shimmering pink coral)
• Loveable (pink melon)

As a fan of the Tarte Tarteist Blush Palette I’m positive I’m going to love the Blush Bliss Palette so, I did pop this on my wish list.

Will you be indulging?

Tarte Blush Bliss Palette is $39 and available now at ulta.com.

By the way, isn’t the gold lattice compact gorgeous? It’s quite different from the mosaic floral Moroccan they have been using on their other Holiday releases!

Tarte Magic Star Collector’s Set is yet another Holiday 2017 Palette and Gift Set that dropped today! Phew! It’s getting hard keeping up with everything that the brand has going on this year for the Holidays but I do know one thing, we got some choices to make!

This is the third gift set they introduced with two others circulating as well which are the Tarteist Trove Collector�s Set available exclusively at Macys and the Tarte Treasure Box Collector�s Set which is available exclusively at Sephora. This is Ulta’s exclusive set!

The Magic Star Collector’s Set is $49 and available at tartecosmetics.com only so far. It includes 25 matte and metallic eyeshadows as well as 2 Amazonian Clay Blushes in Heir (peachy pink) and See (soft shimmer pink). It also includes:

• Amazonian Clay Highlighter in Golden Champagne
• Amazonian Clay Bronzer in Matte Bronze
• Deluxe Tarteist Lash Paint Mascara
• Deluxe Sex Kitten Eyeliner
• Deluxe Tarteist Quick Dry Matte Lip Paint in Castle (plum mauve)
• Deluxe Taretist Glossy Lip Paint in Myth (rose)

I’m thinking this will either be exclusively available on Tarte’s site or perhaps this might be the Ulta Exclusive! But I doubt it, I think Ulta will have their own round of exclusives we can look forward to.

Tarte Magic Star Collector’s Set is available now at ulta.com.
