I picked up one of the Yes to Coconut 2-Step Lip Kit Pucker Up! ($3.99) because I have dry, flaky as hell lips that look all kinds of zombie crusty in the Winter. See? This is why I do not like long-wearing liquid lipstick. Matte, long wear lipsticks were created to torture people with dry lips.

I blame steam heat. I keep telling myself I’m going to get a room humidifier for my bedroom as my skin, lips, and eyes would thank me for it but I haven’t done so yet. I swear steam heat will suck every bit of moisture from your body.

Anyway, Yes To has been a roll releasing all sorts of cream masks, peels, and exfoliaters in single use packages that range from $3 to $4 bucks each. Of course, being the mask junkie I am, I had to pick up a few and the Yes to Coconut 2-Step Lip Kit Pucker Up! ended up in my cart as well.

Here’s my thoughts and review.

I have a theory that Zaphod Beeblebrox has absolutely no problems with his vast collection of makeup. Why? Because he has two heads. I thought long and hard about this and I think it might be the solution to actually making use of my vast makeup, beauty, and skincare collection.

Or maybe I have too much and even if I had two heads that wouldn’t help!

How about you?

Get your towel, hitchhikers and let’s chat how vast your makeup collection really is!

Wet n Wild Megaglo Blush Stick is one of several new Megaglo Makeup Stick formulas that launched for Spring 2017. They actually did conceal, contour, highlighting, and blush sticks in this formula and from my understanding they are part of the permanent collection.

There’s actually so much potential with this formula because it’s a pretty glow-y shade that looks dewy and sun kissed on cheeks and face but the consistency, poor packaging, and shorter wear make for a disappointing experience.

Sephora Line Up Makeup Tape ($6) might just make your makeup life a little easier. Like Hollywood Tape for your face this hypoallergenic tape can be used t create nail art, get that perfect winged eye look, or even to use to pick up makeup fall out.

Psst…a business card will get you that perfect winged eye look and double-sided tape is perfect for patting under your eyes to clean up fall out. But if you want some tape that says Sephora all over it, hey, indulge in this.

I actually love the idea of this though because it’s one of those things that’s perfect for packing in your makeup bag and suddenly whipping out to impress your friends. You can go all, “I’m a makeup artist” on them! As for me, I fear I’m not that cool because most times my best friend will be scavenging through my makeup bag and come across chunks of Gorilla gum!

Oh by the way, I forgot to ask, did you see Beauty and the Beast and did you like it? Luke Evans was the highlight for me! He was just too cute. If you haven’t seen it yet, no problem, see the ten minute James Corden edition and you’re good to go!

You gotta love the beauty world because there is always something new, exciting, and of course, gimmicky around every single corner. At the moment, I can’t help but feel like Benefit gets the the gimmick award for their new They�re Real! Duo Eyeshadow Blender Beyond Easy Eyeshadow Duo and They�re Real! ShadowBlender Beyond Easy Eyeshadow Applicators. Basically, Benefit decided to reinvent L’Oreal’s The One Sweep Eyeshadow.

But the best thing I seen today in the beauty world is stamp on brows.
