Recent Purchases/Rediscoveries: I bought some Dr. Jart+ BB Cream for my mom, but I don’t think there was much else that I picked up in the past week! I have Lethal Cosmetics’ new collection along with ColourPop’s latest collections (actually, the last two) that I’m hoping to photograph/swatch tomorrow.

Weekend plans: Photograph/swatch/edit photos and write up reviews! I need to tackle some longer, eyeshadow palette reviews that I’ve been procrastinating on. My Yogis (four foster pups) are doing better over the last two days, though they were a bit up and down earlier this week. Tree is still being watched, but he’s on some antibiotics now and I’m giving him a calorie supplement between feedings to see if that helps him feel better.

Who was the last person to inspire you? My mom, because no matter how busy she gets, she will still drop everything for her baby girl.

Psst… since it’s Friday and we’re heading into the weekend, if you have some downtime, consider playing one of the games hubby and I have created! You’ll find all of our games on Awordy, but here’s a breakdown of what we have so far:

Adoptle (guess the name of an adoptable pet in six guesses)
Concludle (figure out the subject within six clues)
Mislettered (guess one letter at a time to figure out the phrase/quote)
Word Frenzy (find as many words from the letters available before the shark devours them)

ColourPop That's Taupe Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

That's Taupe Colour Pop That’s Taupe 9-Pan Pressed Powder Palette ($14.00 for 0.30 oz.) is a new, nine-pan palette that is taupe-themed. It includes five matte eyeshadows, three shimmer eyeshadows, and one Super Shock Shadow (Slated). The matte eyeshadows were fairly smooth and velvety, blendable, and easy to work with, while the shimmers were so-so. I found the shimmers to be drier and more prone to fallout and lacking shine unless applied with a dampened brush (which wasn’t always the case with ColourPop’s shimmer formula).

Fenty Beauty Mauve Wives, Fenty Glow & Honey Waffles Gloss Bomb Creams Reviews & Swatches

Mauve Wives Fenty Beauty Mauve Wives Gloss Bomb Cream ($19.00 for 0.3 oz.) is a muted, medium mauve with subtle, cool undertones and a glossy, cream finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation in one layer, which applied evenly and spread easily across my lips, but there was a bit of product that settled into my lip lines–not quite enough to be noticeable from a normal viewing distance. The texture was non-sticky, smooth, and plush without being too thick, though I felt like it was thicker than ideal for building up color as a second layer did feel noticeably thick and heavier. It wore well for four hours and felt moisturizing over time. FURTHER READING : Formula Overview for details on general performance and characteristics (like scent).
