Pretty Vulgar Coming to Sephora Next Month

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

Pretty Vulgar Cosmetics launches next month at Sephora (Update: Available today at Sephora.com) and you can start belting the solo to Queen’s Killer Queen should you like! “She’s a Killer Queen, Gunpowder, gelatine! Dynamite with a laser beam! Guaranteed to blow your mind!

Not a lot is known as of yet about Pretty Vulgar but it’s makeup collection with contrast, just like caviar and cigarettes or in this case whiskey delicate sipped from a tea cup as the brand itself tweeted recently.

It looks like Pretty Vulgar will bring together edge-y makeup housed in pretty princess-y packaging that packs a punch.

We’ll have to wait and see what Pretty Vulgar has in store for us.

Keeping watching Sephora.com for more info.

I’ll post as more news becomes available.

I’m eager to try something new that’s for sure.

How about you?

Princess-y cocktailed with Killer Queen anyone?

Spring is normally a rather popular time for makeup releases in Japan. Typically January marks a time for skincare renewal here in the US but Japan is typically cocking up different color collections to launch and for me it’s one of their biggest seasons for makeup aside from Fall.

There are quite a few beautiful things that launched or about to launch in Japan for Spring and Summer that are currently on my to buy list.

Here are a few I have my eye on.
