Turns out that the Mayans were wrong and 2013 arrived without incident (unless you're as scared as I am that Kim and Kanye are procreating....). I'm always excited to see what what a new year has to bring, but I'm especially interested in the new beauty products thrown at us this year. Here's my list of things I'd really like to see come to fruition within the beauty world!
Procrastinators! Gather around. If you have a person in your life that's beauty crazed (or if you're looking for an awesome present for yourself) Sephora Favorites In the Glow set is the way to go to make anyone happy. It's a great set of blushes, bronzers, and highlighters in travel size that anybody will find at least something they love in it. Unfortunately, this set is no longer available on the Sephora website, but you may be still be able to pick it up in store. Check out the swatches!
Despite my ever growing collection of nude/naked/natural/neutral shadows due to recent trends, I've really been going back and forth over whether to buy the Lorac Unzipped palette. Having both the Urban Decay Naked Palette and theBalm Nude Tude Palette, I've been reluctant to fork over another $40 for the same type of product I already have a couple times over. So when Hautelook hosted a Lorac sale a couple of months ago I was able to compromise with myself: instead of buying the big $40 palette, I bought the Unzipped Nude Collection set for only $20!
After being so extremely impressed with Lorac's Croc Palette, I didn't hesitate to pick up more from the brand when they were on sale at Haute Look. One of the things I grabbed was the TANtalEyes Baked Shadow Palette for $8, originally $36! Can you say 'score'?! But I was really excited about some of the other items I purchased so I kind of forgot about this, until I swatched it, that is. Check out these outrageously gorgeous shadows!
It's that time again! Check out my May 2012 favorites (and a couple not-so-faves) after the jump! And just a note, aside from 2 or 3 of these products, I haven't reviewed most of these yet but you can bet you'll see these popping up in posts very soon so this is also kind of serving as a preview post too.
Just a heads up: that LORAC Croc palette I raved about last week? It's on Hautelook now for $12 (I got it for $18, dang it! lol) along with several other LORAC goodies like the....
- Bejeweled Day & Night Jewelry Box Collection from this past Xmas - was $56, now $29!
- Unzipped Nude Collection with the shadow quad, full sized mascara, gloss & blush - was $34, now $20!
There's tons of steals available for all tastes and as of now nothing's been sold out so if you're looking to get your hands on some LORAC head on over to Hautelook.com!
Ok, I'm totally OBSESSED with this palette! This is by far not a new product, but it was recently on sale (for a very short time) on Sephora's website for $18 so I grabbed it, and boy am I glad I did. It's the perfect everyday, on-the-go palette and I have, in fact, been using it everyday since it arrived on my doorstep! Check it out!
