Beauty News Flash!

While drinking my tea and finally sitting down to read my September Allure issue, I came across something very exciting! 

Look close… Do you see it??

Did you catch it?  MINI BEAUTYBLENDERS! They look to be an inch in length when dry. Just like the article says, they’re going to be perfect under the eyes and in the creases of the nose. I have to get my hands on a pack of these asap!

Currently, I use my Makeup Geek foundation stippling brush; which is very much like the Sigma F80 flat top. It is great all over the face and then to blend concealer under my eyes, I use my regular Beautyblender.  It is amazing for that but a smaller version is going to be ideal! I can’t wait to get my hands on one.

Let me know you’re thoughts.  Do any of you beauty lovers already own one? 

Here is a video review of the mini from The1nonlymaria on YouTube.

Beauty News Flash! New Wet n Wild products!

I just read on the Nouveau Cheap blog that there has been a siting of new Wet N Wild balm stains and 5-pan Coloricon eyeshadow palettes. Wet N Wild, in my opinion, has some of the best eyeshadows, and it is just icing on the cake that they are so darn cheap!

If you are a makeup junkie, like me, you know that Wet N Wild’s new and limited edition palettes can be pretty hard to find. Fortunately, G. from Nouveau Cheap believes these new palettes will be part of the permanent collection.

To see a picture and read more on this news head on over to G.’s blog by visiting the link above.

**Editing to add: Visit this link to see G.’s most recent update on all of the NEW products for 2014. As most of us know, they have a tendency to start showing up before then, and obviously, from the first post, they already are! Are y’all as pumped as I am about these new products?! Let me know what you’re the most interested in trying. I’m extremely curious about the cream glitter shadows. :)**

Beauty News Flash! Rimmel Apocalips have hit the US!

If you follow what is happening in the beauty community you know that our UK friends have been enjoying the Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquers for some time now. What they claim to be via Rimmel:

Earth-Shattering Color

• For the first time, the intense, richer color of a lipstick is enhanced by a smooth satin shine
• Ultra-intense, ultra-comfortable – it lasts all day
• It’s neither a lipstick… nor a gloss… it’s BIGGER than both

The earth-shattering lip lacquer from Rimmel London combining the intense color of lipstick with a lacquer like shine, Show Off Lip Lacquer is an explosive make-up phenomenon that represents the end of color as you know it. Packed with pure color pigments, its lusciously creamy, conditioning formula promises a never-before combination of color, shine and comfort that last and last.

Those are some pretty big claims right? Supposedly, they really are pretty great. Now us makeup junkies in the US are able to try them! As of now, you can find them on Drugstore.com under a new name, Rimmel Show Off Lip Lacquer. What is even more amazing, and shows that it pays to wait…. there are only 8 shades available in the UK, there are going to be 14 shades available here in the US. I still have not heard when they will hit stores. Hopefully soon! If you spot them, be sure to let me know where! 🙂

Available now at Drugstore.com

Update: I have seen several places online that there are some displays up in Walgreens stores already! I will be checking mine tomorrow and will let you know.
