If you’re not prepared to drop $99 to $199 on a Foreo you might want to check out the new Ulta Silicone Sonic Facial Cleansing Device for under $40 bucks. This cleansing device has features a antimicrobial silicone that pulses 10,000 times per a minute to whisk away dirt, oil, and makeup. It has two speeds, operates on 2 AA batteries, it’s water resistant, and cordless. I’m actually liking the shape of this. It looks like it’s easier to hold in my hand and massage on my face compared to Foreo’s more palm size unit!

Best part?

It’s $38 bucks.

But I had this feeling about it:

I know I’m not alone feeling about this right?

Ulta Silicone Sonic Facial Cleansing Device is available now at Ulta.com.

I wonder if it’s as good as Foreo and ahh, can we get on a pink version?

K, thanks!

Buxom Full-On Lip Cream ($20) arrives for Spring 2017 in five shimmer-free shades with very princess-y packaging. These jeweled capped lipglosses have a creamy formula with absolutely no shimmer, glitter, or sparkle of any kind. They give you lips a pretty splash of cream finish glossiness with a formula that contains Hyaluronic filling spheres to hydrate and smooth lips.

Shades include:

• Wild Orchid (fresh lilac)
• Blushing Margarita (rosy nude)
• Gin Fizz (creamy lace)
• French Martini (cool fig)
• Moscow Mule (warm tawny)

It seems cream shades are making a come back for Spring looks but the first thing I noticed about these was the adorable jewel caps!

Buxom Full-On Lip Cream are available exclusively at Ulta.com for $20 each.

It’s true, NYX Stripped Off Cleansing Balm ($14) is a real thing! There’s been whispers about this new NYX Cleansing Balm but until now I thought it might be an urban legend but it’s true and available now at Ulta.com.

NYX released a bunch of different skincare for Spring 2017 including a new Stripped Off Cleansing Oil, Stripped Off Micellar Water, Stripped Off Charcoal Cleansing Foam which so far have proved quite good. I’m quite excited about the cleansing balm release.

Let’s take a peek!

Cetaphil Liquid Makeup Remover ($10.99) has arrived and I’m quite excited. Well, not really, ouch on that $11 buck price tag (Beauty 360 Gentle Eye Makeup is 11 oz and 7 bucks!).

But yay, on something new to try for sensitive users. Last year, I got this bad case of flaky eye lid syndrome. I have no idea what was going on. My dermatologist just said it was dryness but it was damn difficult to not cause further dryness while also getting rid of it. It was rather awful because everything I used was causing it to flake up even further. Not to mention it made my eye makeup look mighty bad. I started using products like Farmacy Clear Bloom Makeup Glideaway Cleansing Oil and Pixi Nourishing Cleansing Balm which were really helpful not drying me out further. But I tend to like to remove my eye makeup with an eye makeup remover first before using any other facial cleansers. Unfortunately, most of my eye makeup removers seemed to add to the problem.

Thankfully, the issue cleared up but I sure wish I had Cetaphil Liquid Makeup Remover at the time as maybe it would have been gentle enough to remove my eye makeup and not dry my eyes out.
