Tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip Vinyls are thick lip glosses in stick form that coat the lips quite heavily for a glassy, high-shine finish that smooths over the look of lip lines. This is not plumping formula but the thickness of the product has a plumping visual effect. There are 16 shades in total with sheer, opaque, and shimmery options, $26 each.
Milk Makeup Cooling Water Jelly Tint is a lip and cheek stain in a water-based jelly stick. It dries down quickly, feeling almost like nothing on the skin. It is not sticky at all and also does not feel moisturizing, hydrating or slippery. It feels like a “water stain” but instead of being liquidy, it has a giggly, gelatin-like texture. There are 4 bright, shimmer and sparkle free shades to choose from, $24 each.
Make Up For Ever HD Skin Setting Powder is a loose powder that is supposed to be blurring, mattifying, lightweight and undetectable, and it is boldly claimed to fight shine for 24 hours. There are two sizes available, a large 18 gram jar that includes a puff for $43, and a smaller 7 gram option that I believe also includes a puff, for $22. There are 12 shades, some of which are color correcting shades. At the time of this posting, Sephora carries only six of the shades. The full size jar and the rest of the shades can be found on Make Up For Ever’s website.
Summer Fridays Dream Lip Oils are sheer, lightweight lip oils with a thinner but still very smooth and glide-y consistency and a slight minty tingle. There are 4 shades to choose from that give the lips a subtle tint without any shimmer or sparkle. These are $26 each and available to purchase from Summer Fridays, Sephora, and Kohl’s.
The Ensley Reign Cold Moon Palette is a colorful cool toned palette with a mixture of sparkling multichromes, a couple of metallics and a wide selection of mattes to pair them with. There are 21 shades in total with a good 50/50 matte to shimmer split. It is available to preorder for $72 on their website.
Elf Lash Xtndr Mascara is a tubing mascara that is supposed to provide length and drama instantly. It claims to resist clumps, flaking, and smudging and remove easily with warm water. It comes in three shades and is available for $7 from Elf and Target.
Laura Mercier Real Flawless Weightless Perfecting Foundation is a light to medium coverage foundation with a very fluid, highly spreadable formula and a natural to dewy finish. It comes in 30 shades, retails for $52 and is available to purchase from a fairly large selection of stores.
ColourPop Lip and Cheek Balms are multi-use cream products that can be used as blushes or tinted lip balms. These launched just recently as part of ColourPop’s Valentine’s Day 2024 collection and are available in 3 shades. They can be purchased individually for $12 or as a trio for $32 and are exclusive to ColourPop.
The ColourPop Lost In Love Palette is a limited edition Valentine’s Day palette for 2024. It mainly consists of various pinks and one true red but also has some peach/orange/coral and berry shades. There are 6 mattes, 4 shimmers, and 2 pressed glitters. As far as I can tell from the outside of the palette and the box, it doesn’t seem that any of the shades are pressed pigments. It is available exclusively on ColourPop.com for $18.
