The Smashbox Always On Matte Lip ($24.00) has been out for some time now. I went into Sephora for something totally not this and walked out with this nude lip in Stepping Out and two other nude lippies, Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Molasses and Bite Beauty Glace.

The Sephora Wonderful Cushion Matte Lip Cream ($8.00) surprised me. I’m not sure why because I have been saying since… well forever, that the Sephora Collection is totally underrated.

I think I would have really liked him. ๐ ColourPop’s Ultra Matte liquid lipstick in LAX reminds me of a…

I immediately lusted after Kevyn Aucoin’s The Contour Book Volume II: Art of Sculpting + Defining Palette ($65.00) when I saw it. I’ve just come back from a work trip to San Diego, my original stomping ground, and I’m off to London tomorrow. I’m doing this thing called “I hate checking bags, so let me make flying as efficient as possible” so I…

This is the third one of these Bite Beauty Luminous Creme Lipstick Duo ($12.00) in my collection and I hope they continue to make more (I say that every time). I also have Violet/Palomino and Tangerine/Ligonberry. I like both and this one isn’t really an exception, although it is different; this one is the nude duo of the bunch. Bite Beauty Luminous Creme Lipstick…
