News:

Sephora and Disney are coming together again, this time for Minnie Mouse! It will include a colorful palette, brushes, a makeup bag, compact, red lipstick, and eyeliner! There is no official date but it is rumored to be coming March or April!

 

For you Sugarpill fans that missed out on the limited edition IMATS goodies, great news! January 28th noon pst the liquid lipstick Trinket (pink with gold sparkles) and two loose shadows Feral and Droplet will be available online on Sugarpill.com. Their limited edition stuff sells fast so stalk that website!

 

My pick of the week is Glitter Elixir liquid lipstick! They are super creamy, incredibly opaque, and the colors are beautiful! My favorite is It Puts the Lipstick in the Basket (yes a Silence of the Lambs Reference) and it is a gorgeous deep mauve brown that is stunning. Their glitters are also gorgeous and have the cutest packaging. You can check them out on Etsy as Glitter Elixirs or check out their Instagram @glitterelixirscosmetics

News:

A new eyeshadow stack by Melt Cosmetics has been announced and is coming next week! It is called the Radioactive Stack and is a collection of four neon pressed pigments in Radioactive a Neon pink, Neon or yellow with micro gold, Radon orange with a hint of pink, and Xenon lime green. They will be available on Monday January 25th 12:00 pst on MeltCosmetics.com!

Dose of Colors have released their new eye deal duos that include a primer and matching loose pigment for 25.00 each. The colors range anywhere from neutral shades like Sticks and Stones to a gorgeous dark teal shade Mermaid, There are also 4 new liquid lipstick shades, my favorite being Cork a warm brown, for 18.00 each. You can get all these on Doseofcolors.com.


My picks of the week are the new Nyx Lingerie liquid lipsticks. At first I wasn't too excited by the line but after trying them I think they are excellent quality for the price of 7.00 each. They are extremely comfortable to wear but still lasted through a meal which is great. My personal favorite is Embellishment, a cool gray mauve. You can buy them on Nyxcosmetics.com and use Welcome25 to get 25% off your order!

My pick of the week is Devinah Cosmetics and their gorgeous pressed shadows. They are incredibly buttery, pigmented, and have great lasting power. My personal favorite was Blazed, an extremely pigmented shimmery red and Euphoric is a great dupe for Kat Von d’s Thunderstruck. They have an amazing price point at 5.00 each and they are also having a Valentine's Day sale where you can get 20% off with the code IGET20!

News:

Urban Decay is coming out with a new Vice Palette called Vice Reloaded on January 24th on Ulta.com! It looks like a collection of shadows from previous Vice palettes like Mildew, Smog, and Freakshow.

One of my favorite companies Looxi Beauty have debuted their highly anticipated Duochrome highlighters! They also have some new Duochrome shadows as well as shimmer shades as well. Any sold out colors will be restocked as they are permanent. Check them out at LooxiBeauty.com!

My picks of the week are the Shiro Cosmetics Cheekbones Contouring Powders inspired by the gorgeous Benedict Cumberpatch or Sherlock’s amazing cheekbones. My personal favorite is Burn the Heart Out of You which is described as a Matte cool-toned desaturated mauve. It is such a unique contour color that blends out beautifully. The packaging is also beautiful with an illustration of Sherlock himself. They are very affordable at 8.00 each that will last you forever, or 1.50 for samples! Check them out and Shiro’s other amazing products at ShiroCosmetics.com!

Our bonus picks of the week are the Bitter Lace Beauty highlighters! I recently tried a couple of their highlighters in Let it Glow, an icy blue silver highlighter and Sweater Weather a gold sheen. They both had gorgeous imprints pressed into them and were generously sized. They are quite shimmery so if you like more subtle highlighters I would use a light hand. They are 16.00 each and pop right in your Z palettes. You can buy them on bitterlacebeauty.etsy.com
