What's New In Makeup and Beauty | May 2, 2022

 Hello again, loves! 

Welcome back to the blog!  We have finally gotten moved into a new house and we are mostly settled, so I'm hoping to actually be able to pick back up with my blogs.   To ease back into posting I am going to run through some of the new releases and see what I find interesting.  

The first thing that jumped out at me is the new collection from Jaclyn Cosmetics.   He has collaborated with her mother to bring out a gorgeous Mother's Day collection with an eyeshadow palette that I find to be interesting.   It's loaded with some lighter pinks and creams that seem a bit redundant; however, I love the greens and taupes.   While the packaging is sweet with a photo of Jaclyn and her mom, I personally would prefer to have it without their photo.  

The 'Dear Mom Eyeshadow Palette' contains 20 eyeshadows for $49 and can be purchased from Jaclyn Cosmetics website for the special Mother's  Day packaging or from Ulta as the Luxe Legacy Eyeshadow palette in the standard Jaclyn Cosmetics packaging. 

It also looks like the collection contains:
  • The First Base Eyeshadow Primer - $20
  • 5 shades of the In Line Eyeliner Pencil - $18 each
  • The All Set Setting Spray - $28
  • 6 shades of the Powder Move Loose Setting Powder - $30 each
  • 4 shades of the Poutspoken Liquid Lipstick - $20 each
  • 4 matching shades of the Poutspoken Lip Liner - $18 each
The next thing of interest is the Colourpop Winnie the Pooh collection.   The packaging on the eyeshadow palette is just irresistible, and the eyeshadow colors are adorable but pretty common to Colourpop palettes.  

It appears that this collection contains: 

  • The Sweet as can Bee eyeshadow palette - $18  for 10 eyeshadows
  • 3 shades of super shock highlighters - $10 each or $27 for the set
    • Silly Old Bear - light yellow gold
    • 100 Aker Wood - medium gold
    • Mind over Matter  - honey bronze
  • Just a taste of Hunny lux gloss kit - $27 for a set of three glosses
    • Clover Hunny - Warm Nude
    • Wildflower Hunny - Burnt Honey
    • Dandelion Hunny - Warm Chocolate (also available as a single)

Also from Colourpop is the new Star Wars collection launching on May the 4th.  This collection looks pretty boring to me, but if you are a Star Wars fan it might be worth picking up for the outer packaging at the very least.   The colors in the eyeshadow palette are mostly browns and taupes with a few pops of red and blue and of course the standard black eyeshadow.   It looks like there are two interesting marbled shadows in the corners of the palette, but the rest of the eyeshadows appear to be others that can be found in prior palettes.  


According to Colourpop, the Star Wars collection includes:

  • The Star Wars 15 pan palette
  • 2 shades of graphic ink liners - it appears to be a purple and a golden bronze
  • 2 shades of Jelly Much eyeshadows - one appears to be a light gold, and the other a light blue silver
  • 2 shades of the Lux Gloss - it appears to be a pink and a purple
  • 3 shades of the Lux Creme Lipsticks - one appears to be a warm tan nude, a medium pinky red, and a deep berry.  
More photos will come out from the brand in the next few days along side more swatches so check out our new Instagram page (FairmountBeauty_News) and of course the brand's Instagram page and website. 


If you are into green and yellow eyeshadows, Plouise Makeup Academy has an eyeshadow palette or maybe palettes coming that will have you covered!  There doesn't seem to be a release date or a name for the palette(s) yet, so keep an eye on our Instagram for more information!  If the palette is similar to another palette in the brand's Instagram feed, this photo contains two palettes and they will be 21 shades each.   Of what appears to be two palettes I am more interested in the palette on the left with the more olive greens and yellow eyeshadows.  


There are a couple of palettes that have caught my attention from a brand that I haven't heard of before, Simply Posh Cosmetics.   It looks like they are releasing the Fairytale Fairies palette this June, so keep an eye out for more photos.   At the moment we only have a picture of the outer packaging; however, if the colors inside match the outer packaging it is going to be gorgeous!  According to the brand's Instagram post this will be their first magnetic palette and a new eyeshadow formula. 


A slightly older release from Simply Posh Cosmetics is the Picking Peonies eyeshadow palette.   I just love this color story and the way the left side of the palette seems to be laid out with the pinks and other shades that coordinate well with pink on the left side of the palette and the greens and browns on the right.   I do wish there were some lighter pinks in the palette to go along with the peony theme.   This palette is an 18 pan palette for $35 from the brand's website.   Based on the shape of the Fairytale Fairies palette I would guess that it is also going to be an 18 pan palette at $35 when it releases.


In a quick mention it appears that Too Faced is releasing a "Better Than Chocolate" collectio in July so more photos and swatches will be coming soon.   It appears that the collection will include and eyeshadow palette, 8 Cocoa Bold Lipsticks in varying shades of nude with a white chocolate and raspberry fragrance, a chocolate lip injection gloss, and an easy glide waterproof liquid liner in a chocolate brown shade.   The eyeshadow palette appears to be mostly browns with a gold, purple, and a blue eyeshadow.   If you want to see a video, Trendmood has a video of the products with a few swatches on her Instagram now. 

As for some face products, L.A. Girl Cosmetics has released six Soft Matte Cream Blushes.   According to a video on Trendmood's Instagram it appears that these are quite pigmented so a little bit will go a long way.   It also appears that these will sheer out nicely to use as a blush.   The product is in a small squeeze tube that has a small tip on it so you won't get too much product out of the tube at once.   The six shades of blush are below: 
  • Cutie - warm peach
  • Rosebud - soft rose pink
  • Grace - nude
  • Blissful - terracotta orange
  • Kiss Up - medium pink
  • Hot Shot - pinky red
There also appears to be a lip oil trio available from Kylie Skin in the flavors, Passion Fruit, Pomegranate, and Strawberry.  The formula claims to be non sticky and hydrating which leaves the lips looking smooth and plump.  This appears to only be available as a trio for $45 from the Kylie Cosmetics website.  


What new releases do you have your eye on this week?  

All the love,
Pam
