Lorac Wild For TANtalizer Collection Review & Swatches

This was provided to me by a brand for review but all opinions expressed are my own

Lorac Wild For TANtalizer Collection is making its debut today on my face. It’s super hot today, first real hot day we got in New York, so a bronze-y look seemed the order of business when I woke up this morning.

I feel Lorac is terribly overlooked sometimes because they seriously make some of the best eye shadows ever and have such great, inexpensive sets during seasonal releases. Their Summer 2012 Collection is sizzling and their new Lorac Wild For TANtalizer Set is a mere $39 taking care of lips, eyes, face, and accessorizes you with a nifty bag too.

Take a look!

Bobbi Brown BB Cream Launches in the US

Bobbi Brown BB Cream has launched in the US.

The new Bobbi Brown BB Cream SPF 35 has launched at Nordstrom.com peeps.

Shades:

  • Extra Light
  • Fair
  • Medium
  • Medium to Dark

Moisturize, perfect and protect instantly and over time. It’s easier than ever to get great skin with Bobbi Brown’s BB Cream SPF 35. Inspired by a skincare and makeup hybrid that’s a cult favorite, as the formula combines moisturizer, treatment, SPF and a lightweight foundation into one. Plus, it’s available in five skin tone shades carefully formulated by Bobbi herself. Consider it your skin’s new best friend.

Features and benefits: Water-attracting molecules boost hydration. Light-reflecting pearls brighten dull skin. Botanical extracts and caffeine reduce discoloration and redness. Pore-reducing peptides minimize fine lines. Broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection and antioxidants fend off future damage.

If you missed my review of it you can click here to see what the good word is.

Looks like the main differences between the Asian and US release is shade selection but other than that the formulas seem similiar.

Looking forward to checking out the US version anyway, count me curious if the formula is spot on for the Asian release.

Are you curious about trying it?

Not so much?

MAC Ruffian Manicure Review

This was provided to me by a brand for review but all opinions expressed are my own

MAC Ruffian Manicure mania is sweeping the beauty scene today. I’m not a nail girl so this is kinda my half-arsed review of the Ruffian Manicure which features three different designs of press on nails.

I got my hands on the Demilune set which is a matte black finish with a gold half moon design. They are pretty wicked in theory but I’m unsure how many people are interested in a set of press on nails. Perhaps nail polishes or even nail strips would have more appeal? But like I mentioned, I’m not nail girl so I’m not an expert. What do you think?

Let’s take a look!

Is This the Too Faced The Art of Sexy Fall 2012 Palette?

Thanks to Robin for pointing out what may be our first look at the Too Faced The Art of Sexy Palette for Fall 2012. A tiny image of the palette is featured on the Too Faced Website and it looks awful like the Lorac Bejeweled Palette Trio from Holiday 2011. Remember those?

Look at the shades in the Too Faced Palette they look awful similiar to Lorac’s trio don’t they?

This palette is supposed to launch this Fall and will be exclusive to Sephora.

I look forward to seeing it in person.

Do you think you’ll haul it?
