Clinique Cheek Pop in Peach Pop

Hello everyone!

How are you all doing? I hope you all had a fun St. Patrick's Day. So we have a brand new layout designed by Yen today and I love it sooo much. It reminds me of makeup candy and all of the colors have me really excited for spring.

Speaking of which, today I will be reviewing Clinique's Cheek Pop in Peach Pop ($21). This is a brand new blush that Clinique has put out and it comes in four universally flattering shades. The blushes are adorably packaged like gerbera daisies and housed in a small glass pot. I am a huge flower lover and blush hoarder, so when I saw these it was a no brainer that I had to get my hands on one of them.

I tried on two colors Peach pop and Ginger pop, but Peach pop looked the most natural and pretty on my light medium skin tone. Ginger pop looked too bright on me. The blush is really soft and goes on smoothly. However, because this color is so light I recommend applying it with a denser brush to really get more color on.

I have to say that Clinique really did a beautiful job with the packaging. It's compact, cute, and super pretty. These blushes are everything Maybelline bouncy blushes should've been. All I want to do is fill my bath tub with Chubby sticks and blushes and swim through them.



Have any of you tried this new blush line? If so, what were your thoughts? Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you have a great day! :)

Stila Peach Lip Glaze

Hi everyone!

Today I will be reviewing Stila's Lip Glaze in Peach ($22). Not too long ago, I received an awesome sample size lip glaze in my Sample Society Box in the color Apricot. I loved it so much that I went out and bought myself a full size lip glaze in the color Peach. This color is currently sold out on Sephora, but I opted to get mine on Amazon instead. (It's actually way cheaper too!)

Anyways, I absolutely love this lip glaze. I've always seen Stila Lip Glazes before but never actually tried them. I somehow had a preconceived notion that they would be too sticky and artificial. However, they are actually not too sticky, the smell is amazing like peach candy, and the color is pretty opaque.

I like to pair this lip glaze with my Tarte Blissful blush, and it gives my face a very natural peaches and cream look. It's fresh and very pretty for summer makeup. I'm really glad I discovered these glosses and I will be trying out some more colors the next time I'm in Sephora. Have any of you tried Stila Lip Glazes? If so, which ones do you love? Let us know below! :)

Holika Holika Peach Girl BB Cream

Hello girls,

I hope you all had a great week and are ready for the weekend! It looks like it's time for another BB cream review. Today I will be reviewing Holika Holika's Peach Girl BB Cream in #2 Natural Beige. I was drawn to this BB cream after seeing the cute packaging and reading the great reviews of it online. The bb cream comes with an apricot cream blush that can be applied wit a brush or fingers.

Although I liked the finish of this bb cream, a matte medium coverage, the shade was a bit too dark for me. Also, the product made me break out slightly the next day. I'm not sure if I would purchase this product simply because it broke me out. Skin 79's Diamond BB cream is still the winner so far. I just like how the Skin 79 finish looks more matte as well. Also, the blush was a nice addition, but was a bit too orange for me.

Overall, I might still use this product but would try a different shade. I would recommend this product if you have normal to dry skin. BB creams are so great if you have redness and visible pores. In general, I really love them and would wear most of them. There are just small little differences in the color, finish, and coverage. I purchased this bb cream from Ebay. Have any of you tried bb creams? What are your favorite ones and why?

Have a great weekend and thank you so much for reading. <3

the Balm Frat Boy blush

Hello everyone!

Today's review will by on the Balm's Frat Boy blush. I've accumulated a few peach blushes over the years, but a girl can never have too many blushes, right?

"This velvety smooth, peachy-apricot shadow/blush adds the perfect amount of color for a foxy flush so you look stellar around the clock. Frat Boy™ leaves you with a face that's pretty and polished. When you can't keep the boys away, blame it on the blush."

I have been eagerly waiting by my mailbox everyday to get this blush and I am so happy to finally receive it! The packaging is everything I wanted. Fun, pretty, and stylish. When I look at this blush it reminds me of hot men and that's never a bad thing. Anyways, I love how it has a snap magnetic closure, a mirror, and that it's travel size friendly. The color is a matte medium pink/peach and you ladies who love a good peach blush might just love this. It goes on light but builds up fast into a medium pink more so than a light peach. The color goes on smooth and lasts all day. I have no complaints about this blush and I can't help but smile when I look at it. You can purchase the blush at the website directly or at Sephora here. Swatch to follow.

Skin Food Makeup

Hi everyone!

So today, I decided to check out the Korean skin care and beauty brand called Skin Food. I was first introduced to this brand a few years ago while I was abroad in Thailand, so I was really excited that it's finally here in California. They mostly have a range of skin care products that are named and made from fruit and vegetable ingredients.The packaging alone is really pretty and alluring.

Today, I decided to pick up a few of their makeup items which I will list below the name and link to them. Anyways, I got two cream blushes or "Rose Cheek Chalk" in a pink and peach color. I also got a lipstick that looks like a bright pink berry color. It's quite sheer but I like that. I also got a lip and cheek tint in a bright pink/orange. Their colors are also exactly like they show in the pots.

Here are the products listed:

1. Candy Moist Rouge in #352 Peanut Berry $11
2. Fresh Fruit Lip & Cheek in Grapefruit $12
3. Rose Cheek Chalk in #2 Rose Peach $9.80 (left)
4. Rose Cheek Chalk in #3 Rose Orange $9.80 (right)

I love how tiny and cute their makeup products are, I almost want to get a tiny purse just to carry them around with me like little makeup treasures.

I hope you all will get to check out a Skin Food store near you. Thanks for reading. :)

August Glossybox

It's here! It's here!! I was so excited to find a pink and brown polka dotted box in my mailbox today. I have to say that the August Glossybox products did not disappoint. Inside the box there were five items.

1.Biolage ExquisitOil Replenishing Treatment Retail is $22
2. Ole Henrikson Truth Serum Collagen Booster Retail is $14
3. Illamasqua Nail Varnish Retail is $14
4. Ellis Faas Lipstick Retail is $35
5. Touch In Sol Feel Like Honey Moon Skin Base Retail is $20


I have to say that I was happy with this box. I absolutely love the Ole Henrikson Truth Serum Collagen Booster. This product makes my dry skin look more smooth , bright, and healthy. I also loved my Illamasqua nail varnish which came in a bright pretty peach color which would be flattering in the summer and in the winter. The Biolage Exquisite Oil I am still testing out and so far it just makes me hair a little more oily and I don't see a huge difference. The Ellis Faas lipstick was disappointing, not because of the packaging which is sleek and beautiful but because of the Hershey brown color is came in. I mean if I were trying to sport a gothic color then maybe it could work, but for daily wear this just isn't flattering at all (Update: After trying on this color and applying it lightly, I have to say I really like it. It looks good on a bare face and really stands out). I've yet to try the Touch In Sol honey moon base as I'm waiting for a good makeup day to try it on (I will be back to let you guys know how it worked out).

Overall, for the cost of the box which was $23, this was a GREAT deal and I'm very pleasantly surprised. Thank you Glossybox!

Tarte Amazonian clay 12-hour blush in Blissful

After hearing all the rave about Tarte's Amazonian clay 12-hour blush I had to get my hands on one and try it myself. At first I was doubtful because coral/pink can be a hard color to nail. However, once I tried it I was very happy! The color is so gorgeous and although it's bright, it doesn't look harsh against my skin. It's a beautiful mix between light pink and peach and I absolutely love it. It's a bit pricey at $25, but it looks good so it was a good buy for me. I'm definitely going to test out the other colors.

Xoxo,

Jenny
