I have a problem, I know. But there are so many great things being released, so I have to test them out and tell you guys what is good and what isn't. I am going to break this down by store, or at least until I get to the drugstore portion. I will also include some first impressions for what I have tried so far.
Sephora
- Caolion Hot and Cool Pore Foam Cleansing Duo. I have only had this for a week or so, and I really like it already. It makes my skin feel squeaky clean, but not tight.
- OCC Colour Pencil Essentials x 6 Set
- Murad Environmental Shield Skin Brightening Set. I ended up getting two of these because they are only $12 and can see a HUGE difference in my skin.
- Formula x Patrick Starrr Polish in Lucky Starrr
Ulta
- Kardashian Beauty Take 2 Dry Conditioner
- Kardashian Black Seed Dry Oil. I have used this in conjunction with the dry conditioner and I like them both. My hair feels a lot softer than usual. Plus I like the earthy scent.
- NYX Ombre Blush in Sweet Spring and Mauve Me. These are great blushes! The pigment and formula are nice.
- NYX Gotcha Covered Concealer. The jury is still out on this one. It has a weird texture. It is very sticky and I can't see where the coverage is anything to brag about.
- NYX Lip Lingerie in Baby Doll. Don't waste your time with these. I'll review it in full soon. It isn't a terrible product, but I don't think it would be worth buying.
- Too Faced Peanut Butter and Jelly Palette. I am already obsessed with it.

- Palladio Crushed Metallic Eyeshadow in Stellar and Parallax. These are great! The pigment is good and they have a beautiful shine to them.
- Palladio Velvet Matte Cream Lip Colour in Sateen and Jacquard. These are nice, too. They are one of the least drying matte formulas I have tried and the colors are beautiful.
- NYX HD Concealer in Green. I like this. I use it before applying my foundation and I can tell it cancels out some of the redness in my face.
- Vegas Nay Trio Lashes. I like the way these look, but I had a hard time applying them. But that is only because I don't have the luxury of a sit down vanity. I have to use one hand to hold a mirror. I don't have this problem with my beloved Kiss lashes.
- IT Cosmetics Superhero Mascara
Target
- e.l.f Illuminating Palette. I like this so far. It is nice, budget friendly highlighting palette.
- e.l.f Acne Fighting Foundation in Porcelain. I love this foundation, but the lightest shade was a always a little too dark for me. I was giddy when I saw they make it in porcelain now.
- e.l.f Satin Lipsticks in Touch of Nude and Touch of Berry
- e.l.f eyeshadow brushes. They aren't bad for only $1 a piece.
- Kiss Trio Lashes. These are the easiest lashes to apply!
- e.l.f Blending Brush
- Rimmel x Kate Moss Nude Collection. I like these. They have a creamy, hydrating feel with nice color payoff. They also have a nice range of nudes to choose from. I bought 42 and 41.
- Wet n Wild Dual Contour Stick. I like this, too. I contour before my foundation now, and this blends out pretty easily.
- Sally Hansen I-Rush Luck Polish
- L.A.B Lip Brush
- Wet n Wild Color Icon Blush. I really like these. They blend well and have good pigment.
Etsy
I also placed an order with Colour Pop and Makeup Geek. And is anyone else obsessed with Etsy, too? You can find some great stuff.
I have an FOTD post using the Too Faced Peanut Butter and Jelly palette, so stay tuned for that.
See you soon!
