Fenty Skin Cherry Dub Mask is an exfoliating, cherry-scented, gel mask that is applied to dry skin and rinsed off after 10 minutes. It contains a variety of acids to immediately help smooth out dull skin and is supposed to help brighten the complexion and combat dark spots with regular use. This is purely a chemical exfoliator, as there are no gritty particles in it. It is priced at $39 and contains 75 ml / 2.5 fl oz.
The Sephora Collection Fiery Warm Nude Mega Mix Palette is a warm brown, bronze, and gold eyeshadow palette that contains 3 types of mattes and 5 shimmers with varying degrees of sparkle. There are no true glitters but one of the shimmers has some glitter particles in it.
The Sephora Collection Fearless Cool Nude Mega Mix Palette is one of several newly released, budget-priced palettes featuring the ability to rearrange rows of shades within palettes to customize them to your liking. This one mainly contains cooler-toned browns and taupes with various formulations ranging from a cream-powder hybrid matte to true powder mattes, as well as shimmers with a mixture of fine shimmer and larger sparkle, and flakier/chunkier shimmers that resemble glitter.
Elf Brow Laminating Gel is a waxy, strong-hold, brow styling product that can be used lightly for a natural look or heavily for a bolder look. It comes in one clear shade and retails for $8.
The Huda Beauty Icy Nude Palette is a cooler toned palette with lots of pinks, greys, silvers, and a hint of peach and gold in the right side column. It’s possible to get some depth out of this palette but for the most part, it is not a very smoky or dark palette. A good majority of the mattes stay in the light and medium range and the shimmers are also quite light and reflective. It is limited edition and is still available for $69 from Huda Beauty and Sephora.
Supergoop Mineral Matte Screen is a multi use product that works both as a foundation primer and a sunscreen. It is a VERY lightly tinted, mostly transparent, all mineral sunscreen (titanium dioxide 1.3% and zinc oxide 17.4%) with a slight matte finish and the feel of a slick silicone primer. There is a larger size which is $40 for 1.5 oz (45 mL) and a mini size which is $24 for 0.68 oz (20 mL).
Elf Camo Liquid Blushes are highly pigmented, creamy, blendable blushes that go for $7 each and come in 12 shades. They don’t dry down too fast or too much and can be applied with fingers or brushes, creating a noticeable flush with a hydrated-looking dew. Some of the shades have very fine shimmer that is only noticeable extremely close up. None of them have any large or noticeable sparkle.
Elf Power Grip Matte Primer is the matte version of the original Elf Power Grip Primer. It is a clear gel foundation primer with a semi-tacky finish that helps to smooth the look of pores and texture when worn under foundation. The sticky feel is supposed to help “grab” onto foundation and make it wear longer while the matte formulation is supposed to help keep shine at bay throughout the day. There are two sizes available to purchase. The larger option is 0.87 oz for $10, and the smaller one is 0.5 oz for $5. Oddly, the smaller one is a better value.
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.
