Viva La Valentino!

It looks like L’Oreal Paris is bringing us another amazing haute couture makeup collection! Following the gigantic success of their Balmain collaboration, the drugstore brand is now teaming up with designer Maison Valentino to bring us a new, super mysterious, and already highly anticipated collection. Both L’Oreal and Valentino made the announcements online, and the collaboration is set to include both perfumes and makeup. Though the partnership is officially set to start in January 2019, we’re sure they’re already working on some exciting product ideas!

No time for the blues

Though they’re famous for their signature hot pink color, Beautyblender’s newest shade is beyond gorgeous. The famous beauty sponge now comes in a striking sapphire shade! The brand has also tapped one of TV’s hottest stars, Madelaine Petsch of Riverdale fame, as ambassador for the limited edition sponge. It will soon be available on Sephora, and though I haven’t used a Beautyblender in a while, I must admit that this new blue color is making me think about purchasing one when it drops!
