A new collaboration of ginormous glossy magnitude. Therefore, get your coins ready because the Jordyn Woods x Too Faced Lip Gloss Collection is coming!

Now that confirmation of a collab has been made, we all have the joy of anxiously waiting for the drop (ugh… hurry Too Faced lol). Thus far, no signs of packaging or exact color lineup has popped up, but the brand promises first looks are arriving soon.

To keep us on our makeup toes, Jordyn did offer up a peek of the collection on social media. So far, it looks be one juicy affair! We’re excited for this collaboration because Jordyn’s makeup is always FLAWLESS and she’s been a lipgloss queen for quite some time. For instance, on her IG Woods often includes gloss in her beauty look. On one occasion, in a post she mentioned that she over time found self-confidence and her individuality which allowed her to blossom; and this newfound freeness includes enjoying lipgloss such as the ones by Petite N Pretty.

So then, Woods is not knew to the lipgloss game or the need to feel pretty in your own skin. She now is on a mission to help others feel just as good and beautiful as she does. Go Jordyn!

Beauty Bakerie Cotton Candy Champagne Palette -Pink Heaven!

ArianneUpdated on November 12, 2018November 12, 2018

With this awesome palette you will want to rock pink vibes on more than just Wednesday! Beauty Bakerie is adding more stress to our wallets thanks to a blush perfect palette release. The Beauty Bakerie Cotton Candy Champagne Palette is a four pan, four tone decadent palette of rich rosy shades.

From the packaging to the colors themselves, this palette is just a hit. The packaging incorporates cute golden glasses with literal pink cotton balls. Like… we’re dying over the adorableness. Also, the names are equally as ingenious. You can doll yourself up in: 24H Champagne Diet, Sip Sip Hooray, Stop & Smell The Rose and No Champagne, No Gain. Brilliant.

Beauty Bakerie Cotton Candy Champagne Palette -Pink Heaven

We love this palette because for once a company has developed pink hues that look great on brown skin. In times past, pink tones often looked “ashy” or didn’t even basically show up at all on darker skin (trust us we know). However, this palette’s colors are vibrant and build very well on a wide range of skin tones.

Beauty Bakerie says that the Cotton Candy Champagne Palette was created as a blush and blush highlighter system. However, they also say that this awesome pink set can double as fun eyeshadow options. Therefore, if you have been in search for some new amazing pinks to play around with, this palette is too “sweet” of a deal to pass up!

Now dolls let’s get to price, because let’s face it, this season cosmetics companies seem to be releasing new product every single day; and our credit cards are burning (lol)! Beauty Bakerie’s new palette currently is retailing for $38. It can be purchased at ULTA, online as well as in-store. Nevertheless, Beauty Bakerie says that soon the palette will be available on their website too, so just keep an eye out for it.

Makeup News: CoverGirl Cruelty Free FINALLY! Leaping Bunny Certified

ArianneUpdated on November 5, 2018November 5, 2018

Let all nature say, “Amen!” One of the biggest cosmetics brands in the industry dropped a beauty bomb today that will forever change the philosophy; as well as development of every future product they will have coming out. The rumors are true about CoverGirl Cruelty Free policy going into full effect IMMEDIATELY!

Therefore, how did this come about? Additionally, what changes will occur and begin to roll out now? Read on to find out!

Makeup News: CoverGirl Cruelty Free FINALLY! Leaping Bunny Certified

Remember this date dolls. November 15, 2018 CoverGirl officially made a move towards helping to eliminate the cruel practice of animal testing. Furthermore, the brand wants to let their consumers know that they are more committed than ever to produce amazing products humanely and still at a high quality.

In regards to their changing ways CoverGirl released the following statement:

“We took the leap! Beauties we have MAJOR news. CoverGirl does not test on animals and now we’re Leaping Bunny certified by Cruelty Free International. Which means we’re Cruelty Free across ALL our products, EVERYWHERE we’re sold!

At CoverGirl, we believe that you shouldn’t have to choose between the beauty products you love and the values you believe in. As the biggest makeup brand to achieve the Leaping Bunny certification; we’re committed to getting affordable, ethical makeup into the hands of anyone who wants it.

Join us in celebrating our certification and supporting Cruelty Free Beauty by sharing your excitement with [hashtags]; “CoverGirlCrueltyFree” and “CoverGirlMade”!

CoverGirl is not sold in China and with our new BFFs at Cruelty Free International; we are working together to advocate for regulatory change to end animal testing globally.”

Makeup News: CoverGirl Cruelty Free FINALLY! Leaping Bunny Certified (Continued)

All we can say is wow. Will this news spark a chain reaction for other big brands to follow suit? Well, time will only tell. Nevertheless, CoverGirl’s big product formulation changes at least help to pave the way that it can be done without affecting sales. Since let’s face it, in this world to major companies it is all about the money, hunny.

As the result, if anything CoverGirl’s move will increase revenue due to more and more makeup/beauty connoisseurs wanting affordable, cruelty-free items to choose from. Moreover, CoverGirl is leaving and setting a good example for all brands.

Animal cruelty does not have to be the norm or a continued practice. Things can always change; and that’s something positive that we can all be happy as well as proud about. Go CoverGirl!

MAKEUP DROP: Wu-Tang Clan x Milk Makeup Featuring Teyana Taylor

It’s all about the details. Milk Makeup recently spilled some beauty intel on their latest makeup collaboration with hip hop’s royalty, Wu-Tang Clan. The brand talked about what you can expect from the collection down to the packaging as well as their roots with the musical group. Milk says,

“We are unleashing a limited-edition collection of 8 luxe lip colors in collaboration with Wu Tang Clan; featuring Teyana Taylor. [The collection] balances Chinese ingredients with high-payoff colors.

The longwear lip colors, each [are] named after eight earthly elements. Housed in a specially made component, revealing a custom sculpted dragon upon opening.

Wu-Tang and Milk Makeup have joined forces for a TRYE NYC collab. Which pays homage to our underground NYC roots and celebrates self-expression, strength; and the evolving connection between us.

Our history with Wu-Tang Clan runs deep. Milk first came together with Wu-Tang back in 2012 to launch NYFW; with a historic concert in the Milk Gallery. And we even have a product named after on of the groups songs.

Our collaboration packaging features Wu-Tang’s famed “W.” And an original graphic that combines the Mandarin character for beauty with Milk Makeup’s logo.”

“Enter the realm. Y’all know I’ve always been a warrior. That’s why it was only right that I teamed up with my boy Rza and Wu-Tang for this dope lipstick collab with Milk Makeup. This is truly a dream come true!”

Renny who has blessed the faces of many beautiful, fab celebs from Gabrielle Union to Brandy; finished off his au natural beat face with the Pat McGrath Lip Fetish in Blow Up.

Lip Fetish is an awesome set of lip balms that are sheer yet mesmerizing. Furthermore, the color impact these lippies create are long-lasting and are actually a great protection for the lips. They are specially formulated to help fight against free radicals and contain antioxidants as well as emollients for an extra added dose of nourishment.

Plus, “Blow Up” is a nice hue if you are looking to go nude. Nude doesn’t have to completely make your lips seem to disappear right off your face to qualify. The key is to choose a color that either looks close to your skin tone, is a rather delicate/soft shade, or the color of your lips.

Nevertheless, not only do we love the choice of cosmetics used in this look; but the overall finish is just breath-taking. To get this look: Enhance with subtlety, adding focus to key areas of your face with full brows , flushed cheeks and voluminous as well lengthy lashes.

As a cherry on top then tack on a sexy, glossy pout in a “flesh tone” shade. Do you love the gorgeous option Afiya Bennett (shown at the outset) is wearing?
