Too Faced Matte Chocolate Chip Eyeshadow Palette ($26) is one of two, limited edition chocolate inspired eyeshadow palettes that launched for Black Friday and Cyber Monday from the brand. According to Too Faced’s Instagram account the Too Faced Matte Chocolate Chip Eyeshadow Palette will make a return on December 14th but outside of this I have no other restock information about the palette.

Rumors are swirling that both the Too Faced Matte Chocolate Chip Eyeshadow Palette which was exclusively available at toofaced.com as well as the Too Faced White Chocolate Chip Eyeshadow Palette which launched exclusively at Sephora.com will be brought back with the Too Faced Spring 2017 Collection. I’m unsure if this is true or not. On December 26th, Too Faced will be bringing out a Peach Collection for Spring 2017 that includes the Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette along with a new Peach Glow Highlighter Palette and Papa Don’t Peach Blush as well as new lipglosses or liquid lipsticks in peach shades. Later this Spring, in February, the Better Together Collection with Kat Von D launches. All this has me somehow doubting that you’ll see the return of the White Chocolate Chip Eyeshadow Palette and Matte Chocolate Chip one. It just doesn’t quite fit in with what they have in the works for Spring! But I’m just speculating, I could be wrong about these two palettes making a reappearance in the Spring Collections. I do believe both will be back in limited quantities but not for Spring, likely you’ll see them return around December 14 at their respective retailers and probably not again after they sell out for the second time. Again, mere speculation on my part but that’s how I see it going down.

Carol's Daughter Body Cream

Good news! Carol’s Daughter is now back at Ulta.com and hopefully this means it’ll be in Ulta stores too soon!

Carol’s Daughter is more readily available than ever before as Walmart and Target also carry the line. I hope with a wider retailer base they’ll start producing more fragrances in their collection as well as more perfumes!

NYX Eyelash Curler Great for Giving Eyelashes a Haircut But Not for Curling

nyx-eyelash-curler

Please step up if you’re the girl that told me in the comment a year or two ago that you sliced off your entire lash line with an eyelash curler. True story, one of my reader’s told me that she fell while curling her lashes and ended up giving her eyelashes a bit of a haircut. Ouch! I told her thank god it was only her lashes, it could have been her eye.

I do have a recommendation if your eyelashes need a nice haircut, never fear the NYX Eyelash Curler is here to do the job.

I was waiting in line at Nordstrom recently and of course, they have those bins hanging around as you wait in line. It’s an evil ploy and trap to make you spend more money as you wait. “Oh I just came here to buy a pair of shoes but I’ll just buy some lipgloss, two new Iphone cases, earbuds, and an the NYX Eyelash Curler from HELL!

OMG Forever 21 is Channeling Pupa

Pupa is one of Europe’s cutest makeup treasures. This Italian brand is well known for their delightfully cute makeup palettes that are like Transformers for makeup lovers. Or if you’re as old as some people, ahem, me, you might remember Sweet Secrets as that’s what Pupa always reminded me of! I had them all because my older sister spoiled me rotten so, yeah, totally had every single Sweet Secret including the jewelry box that turned into a house.

Anyway, I used to be obsessed with Pupa. They actually evolved considerably over the years and the cutesy makeup palettes turned into more of a Kiko-like makeup experience with many of their latest offering easily accessible in Singapore, Taiwan, and Japan but sadly, never in the US. I miss the cute palettes but their newer makeup is actually very pretty as well.

I didn’t realize how much I missed it until ran across this adorable Teddy Bear Eye Shadow Set at Forever 21. I had to bite a nail not to buy it.
