Dolce & Gabbana x Sophia Loren No. 1

I am super excited about this lipstick to be released in a little over 6 days! Sophia Loren is a classic yet exotic beauty that more than deserves this recognition. I feel like a lot of classic beauties are swept to the side by others that this is refreshing to me.

No. 1 looks like a gorgeous mauve that is super trendy right now but also very classic. I feel like it will be one of those shades that you can wear from morning until night effortlessly.

You can now sign up on Dolce's website to be notified of preorders and the actual release!

Maskcara's new IIID Foundation

Maskcara is one of my favorite beauty bloggers. She is down to earth in her posts and I'm always excited to try the products she suggests.

She recently started her own makeup line that includes a cream contouring foundation, blush, and highlighter. It has now been reformulated into an improved, all in one compact for your travel convenience! Cara has also created a brush just for use with this new formula. I especially love the look of the contour cream in the shade shadow!

Benefit Majorette Blush

Benefit has just released a new cream to powder blush called Majorette and boy it's majorly beautiful! It adds a perfect brightness to your cheeks which in turn just lights up your entire face.

The formula is super creamy and so easy to blend you would never think it was a cream. Sometimes you buy a cream blush and it tugs on your cheeks and just look blotchy, well not this one. I just blend it on with my fingers and ta-da! It does have a slight scent but nothing overpowering or irritating. I don't notice it after it's applied. The only thing I would say is that if you have super oily skin, it might not have much staying power. I think this will be great for cooler months when skin needs more hydration because in the summer it will just disappear with sweating.

You can find it at Sephora or Ulta for $28.
