Dermablend Blurring Mousse Camo Foundation

Ok, show of hands, who’s a Dermablend Smooth Liquid Camo Concealer fan? If you are you’ll be happy to hear about Dermablend Blurring Mousse Camo Foundation! I’ve actually hauled out Smooth Liquid Camo and have been using it the past month. You already know I’m a die hard Em The Great Cover Up Concealer fan girl but I decided to switch things up a little. Reason? My other concealers (in my massive stash of concealers) aren’t getting enough love. I made a pact with myself to start using them!

Anyway, if you haven’t tried Smooth Liquid Camo Concealer, do it. It’s good! Creamy, hydrating, easy to blend, and excellent coverage! Anyway, I’m babbling! The real start of this post is the new Dermablend Blurring Mousse Camo Foundation, which, I hope has the same great formula as the Camo Concealer since they share the same name.

Katy Perry Mad Love Perfume Review

Katy Perry Mad Love

I’m delighted to share with you a review of the new Katy Perry Mad Love Perfume. So, why am I so excited about Mad Love? I shouldn’t be considering I have such a passionate love/hate relationship with celebrity fragrances. Some I love, most I hate.

In 2014, Katy added a little fragrance to her growing empire of perfumes called Mad Potion and I have to admit to easily and quickly falling in love with it. The funky bottle, the gorgeous gourmand vanilla fragrance, the ability to layer it with other fragrances, it was just an instant hit for me.

I admit I was a little skeptical about the launch of the new Mad Love Fragrance. Hey, I did in fact love the original but I had doubts about a follow up because typically sequels aren’t as good as the original am I right? Also, I find that when brand’s launch a new fragrance under the same namesake it typically means they smell almost identical to the original fragrance with minor note variations. For example, take the Armani Rose Si, it smells pretty much like the original Armani Si in my opinion. I had worries that Mad Love would just be a variation of Mad Potion.

Turns out I had very little to worry about. Mad Love is absolutely nothing like the original Mad Potion! But there was still the matter of would it be as good as the original?

Bare Minerals The Bare Neutrals Ready Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

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

Bare Minerals The Bare Neutrals Ready Palette

Another day, another Bare Minerals Ready Eyeshadow 8.0 Palette to chat! The Bare Minerals The Bare Neutrals Ready Eyeshadow Palette ($40) is a new eight shade eyeshadow palette that launched earlier last month at Nordstrom.com (and later at Ulta.com). I saw it and I said to myself, “You don’t need it!” But I’m weak and I ended up purchasing it.

Oh woe is me!

I just have such great success with the Ready 8.0 Palettes I felt I was missing out if I didn’t add this one to my collection as well. I have to admit, although great quality, you probably don’t need the Bare Neutrals simply because many of the shades are pretty easy to dupe across the board especially if you have ALL of the other Ready Palettes already. Personally, I’m one of those anal people that that like having a palette that has coordinating shades and the Bare Neutrals Palette fits the bill.

Let’s take a peek!

The It Cosmetics Superhero Eye Transforming Anti-Aging Super Palette is a new take on the Naturally Pretty Palettes we’ve seen from It in the past. They loaded this up with 6 eyeshadows shades, 3 eyeliners, and 3 of the new Superhero Eye Foundation Eyeshadows that correct, neutralize and smooth lids. These new Eye Foundation shades can be used in a variety ways including wearing them all their own as a natural color wash.
