Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Balm are a part of the new Summer Romantics Summer 2011 Collection. If you enjoyed MAC Tendertones or L’Oreal HIP Jelly Balm you might find these new balms an interesting pick for Summer.

The display doesn’t say anything about the product being limited edition however the shades included with the collection may very well be. I can’t confirm.

The packaging and the actual product was a big draw for me, you’ll see why in a minute.

Let’s take a look!

MAC Big Bounce Shadow releases today…

I wonder have you tried them yet? Played a bit on counter? Swatched? God forbid…did you actually spend money on them?

Curious minds…

Yay or Nayin’ on the new MAC Big Bounce Shadow?

If you missed my review you can check it out by clicking here. I’ve since played with them alot more and my main thoughts stay the same…BIG nay!

Total fail on MAC’s part if you ask my two cents.

I’ve been keeping my eyes and ears open and reading various reviews to gather thoughts about what other people think about them. I think it’s pretty much a big no for most people but I’ve actually read some raving reviews on them as well which had me aghast…really? People like these? Seriously…?

Ha but I guess to each his/her own.

I personally felt they were a nay. Sadly, they really lack something in the formula to actually make them work correctly. The theory is fabulous but the actually application is oh so sad.

Have you played with them yet?

Yay?

Nay?

Do share it!

Ultraflesh wow’ed us with Panthera Mascara as one of their first and only beauty products.

$26 mascara had to have started with a dream, a hope, possibly a prayer, and a good deal of “Oh Hells Yes It’s so damn good we don’t need other products in our collection!”

Plus dude you so want to RawwwwwRrrr outloud when you here Panthera….dontcha ya? Speaking of which, it sounds like a Thundercats character.

Off topic, when I was a wee one, my best friend Kelly and I were kinda sorta obsessed with Thundercats so we’d pretend to be them. Our solution for recreating Cheetara spots was by taping pennies on our arms and hair….seriously, I can’t make this stuff up, totally a true story.

Anyway about the UltraFlesh Makeup Collection!

I sometimes get an e-mail or two asking about what goes on behind the scenes at Musings of a Muse. Those are always really great e-mails. Recently, a reader, Meg, contacted me asking me what was going on with my site (I’ve been having a few hiccups and lag which I hope you haven’t experienced too much of) and what my provider was so she could yell at them for me.

Haha…thanks Meg!

I thought I’d compiled a list of 5 Things You Might Not Know About Musings of a Muse.

Check ’em, if you’re curious that is!
