Contrary to what Too Faced has you believing today with news of their Holiday 2017 Collection it’s still very much Summer. It was late coming here in New York but now it’s here and it’s humid. Like my mom says, it’s so humid you can cut it with a knife. If you live Arizona, god bless your little soul as the temps are soaring. I shouldn’t moan too much about Gotham’s weather as it isn’t nearly as bad. When you’re walking outside and your flip flops are sticking to the pavement that’s some seriously hot weather. New York hasn’t reached that realm of Hades hot yet.

None the less, all the talk of Fall and Holiday Collections should be pushed aside today. Let’s just embrace the Summer and doing so with these new Bobbi Brown Peach Love Beach Eyeshadow Trios seems like just the thing.

I have to admit, it’s been a while since I hauled anything Bobbi Brown. Well side, from the new Bobbi Brown Instant Full Cover Concealer which sucked because of a really bad applicator choice. I’m terribly guilty of hauling all three of these new eyeshadow palettes though!

Trio Peace, a pool side trio of shades is divine. I avoid blue shadows lately but this shimmery aquatic selection of pool shades was just too good to pass up!

We’ve been through my shower gel hoarding ways and my candle collection but nowadays my addiction seems to have move into the realms of Bath & Body Works Hand Cream. Why are those Bath & Body Works Hand Creams so damn cute?!?

Worst part? They raised the price on those suckers and you get less product in the new tubes. But damn, they are cute.

I’d just like to take a moment to rant over all the new cleansers releasing lately that have warnings on the back of the bottles that say, “Avoid Contact With Eyes” or “Do Not Get Into Eyes”.

This is me:

What the hell are you talking about?!?!? Avoid contact with eyes? WHAT!?

I think maybe I need this new Cinema Secrets Ultimate Eyeshadow 5-in-1 Pro Palette Chroma Collection because it is looking sizzling hot. Metallics are churning away this Summer but apparently they are coming at you full force for the Fall 2017 season and this little palette should do the trick well to embrace the trend.

It contains give gorgeous metallic shades with a molten melted metal finish with a velvety finish. They look incredibly pigmented.

The shades you get are:

• Atomic Silver
• Rose Flare
• Golden Horizon
• Cosmic Copper
• Beyond Bronze

If metallics aren’t your thing, no worries, there’s also a new Cinema Secrets Ultimate Eye Shadow 5-in-1 Pro Palette Natural Collection which includes five silky mattes shades.

Are you into all these metallics launching or is not your thing?

Do share!

Both are available now at Sephora.com for $40 each.

What this? MAC Prissy Princess, MAC Girls Mischief Mink, Power Hungry, and Girls Basic B Face and Eyeshadow Palettes arriving at Ulta on August 3rd. These are a surprise….! It doesn’t mention them being an Ulta Exclusive but I’m guessing they are as this is the first time I’m hearing about them.

I dunno how I feel about these.

I’m looking at them and thinking that some of the shade pairings are very nice. But something in the back of mind is saying, “Gosh, these look childish for MAC!” They feel very much like Insta-Makeup to me. Something that they launched to appeal to the Instagram generation of younger girls. They are truly nothing like I’ve seen MAC release with their cutesy packaging. And dare I say are they made from cardboard!??!?

Really, these are SO not like MAC at all.

Here’s a look!
