4 stars out of 5

ColourPop Liquid Blush ($10) is a new creamy, moisturizing liquid blush infused with moisturizing ingreidents like sea moss, Hyaluronic, and Polyglutamic Acid that’s available in eight shade selections. When I set out to review and swatch this blush I decided to play it safe and purchase one shade. After trying it, I find myself wanting ALL the shades. This is a delightful formula with a very moisturizing formula that looks beautiful on cheeks. Sadly, it has one major downfall and that would be the shorter wear time but I am more than willing to overlook that.

Kopari Kaanapali Coast Hair & Body Fragrance Mist Review

5 stars out of 5

Kopari Kaanapali Coast Hair & Body Fragrance Mist ($29) is one of four new fragrance mists the brand introduced for the Summer 2024 season. This is Kopari’s first venture in the world of fragrance, and they did an excellent job with their launch. They have that fun, summer feel that makes you want to buy them! I’m not a Summer girl by any means but this a launch that will get you in the mood for Summer.

Someone has to say it, and it might as well be me. Kopari is coming for Sol de Janeiro with this launch. Sol de Janeiro holds the market when it comes to Summery fragrance mists. People are feral for their launches, particularly Zoomers. Sol de Janeiro definitely built a mini-empire of fragrances. Will Kopari steal their thunder? Possibly not. I think Kopari’s Fragrance Mist Collection is a bit different compared to Sol de Janeiro’s. The scents aren’t quite as complex, they are lighter, and the vibe is slightly different. I do think Sol de Janeiro will manage to keep their crown, but if you are a bit tired of their releases (I know I sort of am), you might find Kopari’s Collection a refreshing change.

I haven’t purchased any large bottles yet, but instead, I went with the Kopari Beauty Scents of Paradise Hair & Body Mist Kit, which is $32 and contains all four of the fragrances. I absolutely will purchase some of the larger bottles later on, though, as these smell very pretty. My first review will feature the Kopari Kaanapali Coast Hair & Body Fragrance Mist, which is a tropical coconut scent.

Garnier Erase It All Makeup Cleansing Balm with Hyaluronic Acid Surprised Me

5 stars out of 5

As you know Garnier Skinactive Erase It All Makeup Cleansing Balm with Hyaluronic Acid is one of two new cleansing balm formulas the brand released. I decided to purchase and review the Hyaluronic Acid formula even though I’m pretty stocked up on cleansing balms at the moment. Unfortunately, I’ve reached a stage in my skincare life when the release of a new cleansing balm doesn’t really excite me anymore. Farmacy Honey Vanilla Clean Makeup Meltaway Cleansing Balm recently dropped, and I’d typically be pretty hyped to indulge in a new Farmacy Cleansing Balm, but I really don’t need it, plus the entire limited-edition thing! Part of it stems from the fact that I already have a few cleansing balms in my current rotation. It seems silly to purchase another formula without first using those up.

Of course, I did indulge in Garnier Erase It All Makeup Cleansing Balm with Hyaluronic Acid, and a lot of that was because I needed to review it for the blog, not because I wanted it. But it surprised me…! And I’ll happily repurchase it.
