  • Haul/Rediscoveries: Clinique Even Better Pop Lip Colour Foundation x28, Fenty Beauty Trophy Wife Set
  • Weekend plans: I have a whole lotta editing to do today (about 900 photos to sift through, then edit), and then I’d like to plan out the next couple of weeks (sort of a “lull” in the season where there aren’t as many NEW releases!). Spend more time with Mellan, take more photos of him.

    Last Friday night, hubby discovered a new lump/bump on him, so I took him in on Monday to have it aspirated. The doctor (not our usual one, though) saw some abnormality on the slides and advised surgery to remove it, but I’m very, very hesitant to put him under given he’s almost 12 years old and has a compromised liver (so it’s harder on his system), so I had the slides sent to pathology, which determined that it was a lipoma (fat pocket) with no evidence of any malignant processes (so benign). We’ll keep an eye on it, as we do all his other fat pockets, though.

  • What kind of accessories do you enjoy wearing the most?: Earrings are really the only one I wear, so definitely those!

Anastasia x Jackie Aina Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

-

Jackie Aina Anastasia Jackie Aina Eyeshadow Palette ($45.00 for 0.392 oz.) is a new, limited edition palette that features 14 shades across three Pressed Pigments and 11 eyeshadows in various finishes, from matte to pearl to metallic. Where this palette shines is in its cohesive, yet versatile, color scheme. The left side of the palette has a pink/purple vibe, while the right side is warmer, earthier with taupe and green brown. There’s a nice mix of depth, undertone, and finish to create many looks. The mattes in the palette are some of the brand’s best; they had some of the soft, lightly powdery nature that most expect from the brand’s formula, but I had hardly any fallout from the mattes and found them to be quite pigmented and blendable overall. A couple of the shimmers seemed a bit too loosely-pressed, but as long as you’re someone who doesn’t mind applying with fingertips or a wet brush (or if you normally use a tacky base), I don’t expect that to be a deal-breaker.

MAC Cheer Up Glow Play Blush Review & Swatches

-
Image
Cheer Up MAC Cheer Up Glow Play Blush ($30.00 for 0.25 oz.) is a brighter, light-medium coral with subtle, pink-leaning and moderately warm undertones paired with a satin sheen. There was very faint and fine pearl throughout, so it didn’t have a full-on matte finish but did not appear overly shimmery either. The texture was smooth to the touch and malleable where I could push against the surface and get a lasting indent, but it didn’t have the traditional wetness of a true cream blush. It felt more like powder once it came into contact with my skin, and I didn’t have issues with the product lifting up base products when I patted this over my liquid foundation. It had semi-opaque, buildable coverage with a fingertip and more semi-sheer, buildable coverage with a brush. It wore well for eight hours before fading visibly. MAC Glow Play Blushes launch February 6th and will be available in 11 shades; see the collection information here . Top Dupes Formula Overview Ingredients

YSL Rose Nu, Rose Blazer, Plum Tunique Rouge Volupte Shine Oil-in-Sticks Reviews & Swatches

-

Rose Nu (88) YSL Rose Nu (88) Rouge Volupte Shine Oil-in-Stick ($38.00 for 0.11 oz.) is a medium pink with warm undertones and a natural sheen. The lipstick yielded medium color coverage in a single layer, which applied evenly and didn’t settle into or emphasize my lip lines, despite being a creamier, more emollient formula. It felt lightweight and was comfortable to apply and to wear as it felt like a balm-lipstick hybrid. It lasted well for four hours and was hydrating over time.
