E.L.F. Tinted Lip Oil Review & Swatches

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

E.L.F. Cosmetics Tinted Lip Oil ($6) is one of several budget friendly lip oils that have launched in the last year or so. Lip oils somehow feels like it is making a come back this Summer as I keep seeing a slew of drugstore and budget brands launching different formulas. I did notice that the formula has been revised slightly though as where as before brands were launching sheer or clear oils now brands are taking aim at tinted or pigmented formulas.

That’s the case with E.L.F.’s version which is available in five shade selections which give your lips a pop of color as well as nourishing ingredients to sooth and soften lips.

Here’s my review and swatches.

Too Faced Peaches and Cream for Fall 2017

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

Too Faced Peaches and Cream Collection arrives at Sephora for Fall 2017 shortly with a plethora of peachy makeup options like a new Just Peachy Mattes Eyeshadow Palette, Peach Perfect Foundation, and Peach My Cheeks Blush, just to name a few items.

This release is close on the heels of the release of the Sweet Peach Collection that arrived late last year with a re+promote of the Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette. I had some hits and I had some misses from the original collection so, I’m curious how I’ll feel about these latest offerings. These are all matte in finish but with a formula called “modern comfort matte” that apparently is nothing like the mattes you’ve tried in the past!

Too Faced Peaches and Creams arrives exclusively at Sephora.com on August 28th and will be available at toofaced.com starting September 1st. I already have my debit card fired up and at the ready for this launch.

So, let’s take a peek and see what we’ll need!

Benefit Gogotint A New Cherry Red Stain!

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

Benefit Gogotint is a new bright cherry tinted lip and cheek stain that just launched and will become apart of the permanent line of stains from the brand. The last I heard of Gogotint was on an Asian beauty blog I frequent but that was a while ago! Nice to see we are finally getting it here in the US.

I know, I know, you’re think but we already have Benetint! That’s red! Apparently Gogotint is a much more pigmented shade of cherry red. This one promises a burst of juicy red on lips and cheeks. From the swatches I saw it is quite deep.

Strangely enough, as much as I love Benetint, I always felt it wasn’t quite as pigmented as I had hoped for. So, I’m actually looking forward to Gogotint although, I will say that I’m terribly disappointed we aren’t getting some sort of warm coral blush for Fall. But it’s still early and Fall isn’t quite here as much as I’m pushing for it. So, we’ll have to wait and see what else Benefit has up its sleeve for Fall 2017.

For now you can get your hands on Benefit Gogotint at ulta.com and at benefitcosmetics.com.
What do you think?

Will you try it out?
