Too Faced Born This Way Concealer ($28) is a new concealer from Too Faced that will be launching in ten shades for Fall 2016 that promises a host of concealing benefits. I was loved Born This Way Foundation. It was creamy, it blended easily, it had a smooth, weightless finish, and it looked incredible on my drier skin. I think they did a really, really good job with that foundation which is why one would expect much of the same from Too Faced Born This Way Concealer. Personally, I was expecting a creamy, full coverage, hydrating concealer much like the foundation!

This is formulated with many of the same ingredients that the foundation has such as coconut water for moisture, hyaluronic acid to retain moisture and smooth skin, as well as alpine rose to brighten. It’s also oil-free!

Let’s take a look!

The Tarte Tarteist Contour Palette is on the way in a new darker palette of shades. I think the original that launched for Spring 2016 did limit who could use it as the shades wouldn’t work for everyone so, if you have a darker skin tone you might just a bit excited about the introduction of this new palette which includes 3 darker contouring shades, 2 highlighters, and a new, brighter blush shade.

No details on the exact launch date but I imagine Fall 2016 might just be the order of business for this one!

I’ll keep you posted!
