Hourglass Ambient Light Correcting Primer for Summer 2016

Hourglass Ambient Light Correcting Primer

Everyone is crazed over the new Hourglass Ambient Light Correcting Primer ($44) that’s available in three shades of Luminous Light, Dim Mood, and Dim Light. This new light correcting primer blurs the appearance of imperfections with smoothing skin and giving it a soft, subtle glow from within.

The primer uses light correcting pigments that act as a little filter to neutralize, brighten, and soften light giving skin the appearance of flawlessness. It can be worn alone for a lit-from-within glow or under makeup to add a subtle radiance to skin.

This seems like a no brainier for fans of Ambient Lighting Powder! I don’t typically like a glow-y foundations, primers, etc…I have a rounder face and feel like anything glow-y tends to accentuate that fullness (kinda like putting a spotlight on my imperfections!) but I’m quite curious about this formula and have my eye on one or two shades.

What do you think?

Hourglass Ambient Light Correcting Primer are available now at Sephora.com.

MAC Good Luck Trolls Upcoming this Summer

mac good luck trolls

If you’re a child of the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, or 90’s I’m positive you had at least one Good Luck Trolls! Well, Good Luck Trolls are coming to the makeup world for Summer 2016. MAC Good Luck Trolls is a new makeup collection, yes, this is real, inspired by those ugly yet endearing little dolls with the fuzzy electric shock inducing hair!

Hell, these wild-haired dolls were even the inspiration of a movie so why not an entire makeup collection right? This collection promises to as bright and vibrant as the dolls themselves!

500 Years Later, The Body Shop Introduces New Shades in Their Lip & Cheek Stain Collection

The Body Shop Long Lasting Lip & Cheek Stain

There aren’t a lot of things you can depend on in life. But you can always depend on the Body Shop for having the same exact Lip & Cheek Stain year after year after year after year. The formula hasn’t changed, the packaging hasn’t changed, it’s been the same for the last 500 years or so. That last part might have been exaggeration.

I will say for the Holidays they surprise us with the little doll Lip and Cheek Stain which I love. It’s such a great stain and gives such a lovely glow to skin and I think it’s even better than the original formula. This year, it wasn’t a doll but the formula remained the same with a pretty gold sheen and a natural peach shade!

Unfortunately, sometimes the things we depend on most change but it can be a good thing. That’s why I’m pretty damn excited that the Body Shop now has an entire collection of shades in their Lip & Cheek Stain Collection and it looks like a new formula too (as well as new packaging)!

Lancome Cushion Blush Subtil Summer 2016

Finally! Lancome Cushion Blush Subtil ($39) are now available. I’ve been waiting and waiting for these to finally launch. With the success of Lancome’s Miracle Cushion Liquid Cushion Compact Foundation it isn’t any surprise that the brand decided to take the cushion makeup trend and run with it. For Summer 2016, Lancome has released a selection of cushion blushes! This isn’t really a new or unique idea by any means as many brands in Korea have a range of cushion blushes including Etude House, Iope, and many others.

But this is the first cushion blush for the US market with plenty more to follow soon I’m sure including the L’Oreal Cushion Blush we should be getting soon at drugstores!

Lancome’s Cushion Blush Subtil has been getting raving reviews across the board as it is already available within Asia. This vibrant fluid blush is suspended in a cushion and adds a fresh, bright tint to cheeks.

Shades include:

  • Splash Caramel
  • Rose Sorbet
  • Sorbet Grenadine
  • Cerise Givree
  • Sorbet Grenadine
  • Splash Orange
  • Splash Corail

Not all shades are yet available at Sephora but Macy’s does!

Lancome Cushion Blush Subtil is available now at Sephora.com and Macys.com.
