Tarte Naughty Nudes Amazonian Blush On the Way!

Tarte hinted at their new Naughty Nudes Amazonian Blush Collection that’s launching soon and yes, if you haven’t guessed, these blushes will be all nude! The photo they tweeted out appears to have six shades and possibly one of which is a highlighter. I thought Buff was a gorgeous shade when it released back in 2012 and it had this lovely hint of shimmer to it. I’m hoping the Naughty Nudes Amazonian Blush shades have a luminous glow of some sort as well just like Buff. There are some nudes like Buff that Tarte has launched in the past such as Stellar from the Fantastic Foursome Set from Holiday 2012. Not to mention a highlighting shade or two such as the one featured in the Easy Glowing Deluxe Set.

I’m quite excited about this launch because like many of you I’m a fan of Tarte’s Blushes! Too bad we aren’t getting back that Tarte Big Blush Book though! That would really make my Summer.

Are you excited about new, nude blushes from Tarte?

Do share!

E.L.F. Beautifully Bare Finishing Powder Clinging to Dry Skin Like a Boss

E.L.F. Beautifully Bare Finishing Powder 5

If nothing at all the new E.L.F. Beautifully Bare Finishing Powder ($6) clings to dry skin like a boss and oxidizes to a delightful orange, heavy sarcasm there! I know, I know, I have dry skin why am I purchasing powder anyway? I actually thought this would be a nice, natural powder for Summer wearing when my skin is a little oily but man, it is dry as the Sahara Desert!

And let’s not talk about how badly it oxidizes! I was running around looking like I could play the part in the next Chocolate Factory movie! Seriously, I’d make a cute Umpa Lumpa in this!

No Orgasms from Soap & Glory Orangeasm Body Butter But There Are Microbeads!

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Soap & Glory Orangeasm Body Butter

Soap & Glory Orangeasm Body Butter ($15) has finally arrived in the US! This Sicilian lemon and sweet orange peel scented shea butter body butter is rich, creamy, and super moisturizing. I love this stuff with a passion but the name is so misleading. I expected explosions of sweet, juicy orange but what I got was far from exciting.

And not to mention, it has beads, horrifying beads.

Lorac Pro Palette 3 Review & Swatches

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Lorac Pro Palette 32

Lorac Pro Palette 3 is a new Lorac Pro Eyeshadow Palette featuring 8 shimmer and 8 matte shades of Lorac Eyeshadow for a total of 16 gorgeous shades packed into one slick palette.

The Lorac Pro Palette 3 is the third edition from Lorac’s bestselling Pro Palette Collection and focuses on more lighter nude and neutral shades. At a glance it reminds me most of the cooler toned Lorac Nude Necessities Eyeshadow Palette. So, if you felt like Pro 1 and Pro 2 were a little too dark for you, you might find more friendly shades in this palette for fairer skin.

Let’s take a look!

Histoires De Parfums This Is Not a Blue Bottle Was In My To Be Returned Pile

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Histoires De Parfums This Is Not a Blue Bottle 2

Histoires De Parfums This Is Not a Blue Bottle launched last year but just recently became available at Sephora.com. It’s a fragrance I had read many reviews on but wasn’t sure I wanted to blind buy it from Histoires De Parfums website. I was delighted that Sephora got it in stock and quickly added it to my Becca Champagne Pop order.

Histoires De Parfums This Is Not a Blue Bottle comes in the standard glass falcon that the brand uses for all their fragrances but rather than a clear bottle this time it comes in a starling bright blue one. It’s very, very different packaging for the brand but the bottle isn’t the only difference! The entire fragrance is different from anything else that Histoires De Parfums has done.

And yes, Histoires De Parfums This Is Not a Blue Bottle was in my to be returned pile.
