Too Faced Born this Way Sunset Stripped Eyeshadow Palette ($52) is yet another nude eyeshadow palette and I’m sad to say I don’t hate it. I know, I know, we have two million nude eyeshadow palettes already and this one sure as hell looks like the original Too Faced The Natural Nudes Eyeshadow Palette but, I still sort of want it.

Please don’t judge me. Still friends?

Too Faced Born this Way Sunset Stripped Eyeshadow Palette is a Summer 2021 release and a new take on the original The Natural Nudes Eyeshadow Palette with a selection of 16 eyeshadows that have matte, metallic, shimmer, and sparkle finishes. The promo images makes this version of the palette appear a little lighter than the original Natural Nudes version.

Shades include:

• High Tide (warm taupe matte)
• Shell We Dane (warm light pink shimmer)
• Suns Out (light beige gold metallic)
• Nude Beach (neutral beige matte)
• Sun Chaser (medium warm brown matte)
• Surfboard (golden peach metallic)
• Shell Yeah (light peach with pink shimmer)
• Butter Pecan (light milky orange matte)
• Golden Hour (rose terracotta matte)
• Hey, Honey (true bronze metallic)
• So, So Hot (medium ruby metallic)
• Chai Times (deep cranberry matte)
• Cocoa Glow (dark warm brown matte)
• Bonfire Babes (deep bronze metallic)
• Sandy Cheeks (brown olive shimmer)
• Black Sand (soft black matte)

This is an early launch and I suspect it’ll be removed as the original launch date is set for the end of March so if you do want it snag it now from Nordstorm. The entire Too Faced Sunset Stripped Collection for Summer 2022 will arrive in May. We’ll have to wait and see what else launches with this new eyeshadow palette.

Too Faced Born this Way Sunset Stripped Eyeshadow Palette is available now.

Ok, Tiktok, you did it again, you sold me on this new MAC MACStack Mascara. As you know, last year KVD Good Apple Skin-Perfecting Hydrating Foundation Balm went viral on Tiktok and sold out quite quickly. At the time, I was a naysayer. I’m not one for balm foundations! I have plenty of experience with them and I know they are incredibly heavy, drying, and accent every single flaw on your face especially if you have drier skin. But none the less, everyone was raving it as the new must have foundation of the season.

I dodged a bullet.

I didn’t give into the hype and later on the really bad reviews starting pouring in and I may have been a really awful person and sat back and thought, “I told you so”! Please don’t judge me for that moment.

Now, Tiktok is back at it, and they are currently selling me on MAC Macstack Mascara.

Did I buy it?

Yesterday we had our first real taste of Spring here in New York. The weather was in the 70s (but that evening we had the worst winds and rain! Ugh! Mother Nature WTF?), clear skies, sunny, and just gorgeous.

I’m starting to prep for Spring and started sorting through my clothing, accessories, and most importantly, my makeup stash. I always like to take a moment at the change of each season to really look through my makeup and skincare and ditch anything that may be expired or to rotate shades I’ll use most in that season. But also, it’s a good time to really look at what you have and reflect on who you might be able to help by donating it.

Walmart will bring partnering with Space NK to bring more luxury lines of skincare, makeup, and and hair care. The new partnership is labeled “Beauty Space” and will be available online at walmart.com as of March and launching at 250 stores this summer with over 15 luxury brands that will be available. Some of those brands will include By Terry, Foreo, Slip, and more with prices ranging from $50 to $200.0

As you know Target teamed up with Ulta to do the same as well as Sephora with Kohl’s. And the thought that the beauty industry is suffering due to the pandemic is probably completely wrong because Coty says that prestige sales were up 12% as of the second quarter in 2022 (I blame Tiktok).

I know what you’re thinking! Prestige Beauty at Walmart? But it’s actually not as weird as you may think considering the relationship that Walmart has developed with some luxury brands of clothing and accessories that they begun carrying on their website a while back ago.

Yes, the idea of Space NK and Walmart sounds like an odd relationship but luxury beauty brands are slowly realizing that they can’t remain exclusive to a certain type of clientele anymore and they need to cast their nets out further and become more readily available to the masses.

I do wonder if this collaboration will work out for Walmart or if it’ll be a bust.

What do you think of prestige beauty at Walmart?

Yay or nay?
