H2rOse- Beauty In A Bottle


I have had the pleasure of trying a fun new product called H2rOse!

Picture from my Instagram @adrienneroyale  


Rose water has been around in beauty for ages and now here's the new @h2rose  a delicious Rose Water we can drink! We all know the saying "beauty starts from within" and with H2rOse this is where it starts! It even comes in four yummy flavors-Apple, Wild Berry, Peach and Mango. I have been drinking this for the last couple of days and really enjoy the light crisp refreshing flavor! I love how it's low calorie to!

I have tried all of the flavors and I have to say that peach is the best one! The only one I was not very fond of was the Mango. For me personally, I found that pouring H2rOse over ice makes it taste so much better! It is a very light fruity taste but you can taste a hint of rose in it. It is hydrating and I was left satisfied after drinking it!


Besides the bottle being absolutely beautiful it includes roses, saffron, flavonoids and essential vitamins! It claims that if you drink #H2rOse as part of your daily beauty regimen it "can help improve your skin quality, occasional stress relief, and even enhance your mood"! This is like beauty in a bottle!

Here are some other benefits of Rose Water & Saffron- (as listed on their site)


Increases satiety (decreases appetite)
Decreases occasional, temporary stress, anxiety and mild depression
Improves emotional health stability
Eases digestion
Relieves irritable stomachs
Mood enhancing qualities
Improves skin texture and appearance
Provides nutritional benefits
Strong natural antioxidant


I have only been trying this water for a couple of days, so I cannot honestly answer if I see any type of improvement with my skin or mood, but I know there are a ton of benefits with rose water and this is something I would like to try out in the future to be able to enjoy all of the benefits!


You can purchase H2rOse at WWW.drinkH2rOse.com  you can buy a 12 pack for $46. Each bottle is 12 fl oz and only range from 60-80 calories per bottle! This sounds quite pricey but with all of the benefits it has, it can be worth it! Plus, you have to think about it, we can spend $50 on a new eye shadow palette and not blink an eye; this is good for you and is a beauty drink! It would be nice if they sold the bottles individually so you were able to taste a flavor before committing to 12 of them. I did notice though on the website they have a multi flavor 12 pack and I think that would be the best thing to purchase when you’re first trying out the water!
All of the yummy flavors! 


I think H2rOse is such a fun new concept and I love how it is healthy and helps with your beauty from within!


You can learn more about this delicious water by visiting their page @h2rose or visiting WWW.drinkH2rOse.com
H2rOse even sells cute tank tops and hats to match their bottles! Also sold on their website


What are your thoughts on H2rOse? Have you tried it or want to? Let me know your thoughts!

Makeup Eraser- Is it worth the Hype?!

Picture from my Instagram featuring Makeup Eraser @adrienneroyale 


The title says it all, Makeup Eraser- Is it worth the Hype?! WOW!! Was I ever pleasantly surprised! I first want to start out this blog post with something that I think is very important! I am NOT paid to make this review and was sent this Makeup Eraser from Kmitch Makeup Eraser and only asked to post it on my Instagram @adrienneroyale but as soon as I actually used this I felt I had to make a blog post! I just want to start off by saying this, because I have heard so many mixed reviews and I myself always wonder if the “good ones” are sponsored or paid for. This blog post I can assure you is not, and is my own personal opinion and just keep in mind products work differently for everyone, so just because something works for me it might not for you, or vice versa.

When I was reached out by @beauty rebelz  to try the Makeup Eraser I agreed,  because I have heard so many different reviews, some super good and some horrible and I wanted to try it for myself! The countless ads and videos always intrigued me. Remember, a video on Instagram is only 15 seconds and half of them the girls look like they are tugging at their eyes and it looks like the Makeup Eraser would be painful. I have had friends tell me they love it and some say they hate it and so not worth the money. So, I was super excited to try it and honestly didn’t think it would work or if it did work it would hurt me.

I got my Makeup eraser, took my picture for my Instagram, then washed it, so I would actually be able to use it and see how I liked it The directions state to wash it before using it for the first time. I had all of my makeup on the entire day, I am talking full face- primer, foundation, bronzer, blush, lipstick, eyeliner, eyeshadow, mascara you know tons of makeup like I wear daily (yes, you can call me a cakeface that doesn’t bother me) I wet my Makeup eraser with warm water and I did notice it took quite a while to get the cloth to soak up the water. The directions state to get the cloth drenched so that is just what I did, I think this is the most important step. Making sure the cloth really is really wet. Once I had it drenched and squeezed it out, I started with my eyes and my makeup came off so smooth, it was just like using a makeup wipe. I wiped my entire face using circular motions, paying special attention to my eye area and did go over it a couple of times (I wear a lot of eye makeup so even with a makeup wipe I have to go over it several times). I then flipped over the clothes to the “exfoliate” side and went over my face a couple of more times.

Directions on how to use the Makeup Eraser 

All of my makeup washed off! WHAT?!?!  I couldn’t believe it, I seriously couldn’t! I had to text my husband and friend right away and show them the picture of the cloth because my husband was even more skeptical then I was! He was like “Wow, I didn’t think it would work” my friend Brenda told me I should do a post if I liked it, so that’s exactly what I am doing!  I didn’t have to pull at my eyes and my face didn’t turn red like I thought it would. The cloth is very soft and feels nice on my face. I didn’t experience any type of reaction and have used it twice.
After using the Makeup Eraser front side! Never thought seeing a dirty pink cloth would be so amazing!

After using the Makeup Eraser back side

I know this retails for $19.97 (website www.kmitchmakeuperaser.com) and the claim is that it helps save money, cut back on non-biodegradable waste and live chemical free. I totally agree with it being chemical free and cutting back on waste. It does save you money not having to buy makeup wipes but you do have to wash it. I personally can’t keep using a dirty cloth time and time again, and I certainly don’t do laundry daily. I used the cloth twice and feel I should wash it now before I use it again. It is a nice sized cloth so if you just want to use a small section at a time it could be used maybe 5 times at most. For me though, I would want to wash it at least every two uses. It is perfect if you can use it a few times and throw it in the load with your towels. Just for myself, I will have to wash it more often then I regularly do my laundry. I read on the website it is good for at least 1000 washes.


Personally, I can’t believe I am saying this but I would pay the $20 for it! I feel like it worked so well and some makeup wipes give me irritation and it gets very costly to always having to buy them. I’m sure I will still use makeup wipes but not every day! Just on the days my makeup eraser isn’t washed and I am being lazy and don’t feel like washing it haha.


After using the Makeup Eraser all of my makeup was off, but my face didn’t feel completely clean and I did wash it afterwards like I normally would with my face wash. This doesn’t bother me because regardless if I was using makeup remover wipes, after I get my makeup off, I always wash my face afterwards. Overall I am so impressed with this little pink cloth and I love it! It is amazing how skeptical I was of this product but ended up loving it and knowing I will continue to keep using it!


Have you used the Makeup Eraser? What are your thoughts? Were you as surprised as I was?!

YSL VoxBox from Influenster- Touche Eclat Blur Perfector and Touche Elcat Blur Primer


makeupmess featuring YSL Touche Eclat Blur Perfector on my Instagram @adrienneroyale


I finally got my first #VoxBox from @influenster and it was the YSL VoxBox! I received this box for testing purposes and have been using it for the last couple of weeks and felt I could finally make a honest review.  


In my VoxBox I received the YSL Touche Eclat Blur Perfector and Touche Elcat Blur Primer. Both are in absolute stunning packaging! I love how the Touche Eclat Blur Perfector has the baby pink packaging and both have the gold accents, it makes it look very classy and beautiful! Both of these products you can get at Sephora, the Touche Eclat Blur Perfector retails for $55, and the Touche Elcat Blur Primer retails for $52 for 1oz.



When I first got these two products I was so excited! I love primers and having my skin look flawless! Primers always help me so I am able to start my face by having a clean canvas before beginning my makeup. I was really hoping these two products would be amazing!


I will start off with the Touche Elcat Blur Primer. This primer is intended to prep your skin before you start your makeup with your foundation, powder etc. You put it on before putting on your foundation and this is exactly what I did.  It is said that this primer should help blur your imperfections and I have found this to be true. It is a clear gel like formula and you only need to apply a tiny amount. There was no smell at all and felt velvety on my skin, the primer spreads on evenly and very nicely. It dries quickly and I did not notice any stickiness.


While wearing this primer I noticed that it did make my skin look more even and helped with my foundation application leaving my face look smoother and my pores less visible. I noticed in the bottle it looks like there are little gold specs in the primer but once on the skin I did not look like a sparkly mess and didn’t notice any shimmer. I really enjoy using this primer and it works well. I felt like my skin looked better versus not wearing any primer at all. It lasted all day long but after about 4 hours of wear in-between my eyebrows I did have a lot of shine. My makeup did last longer wearing this primer as it usually does with any primer I wear. I would recommend this primer if you have the $52 dollars to spend on it. I felt it still did not work as well as my Becca or Smashbox primer but would be something I do like to use occasionally, For the price though I don’t see myself wanting to use it every day but more trying to save it. I would rather use my $30 dollar primers for everyday use and save this for special occasions.


Next up is the YSL Touche Eclat Blur Perfector. This is what I was the most happy to start using since the compact was so absolutely gorgeous! This is a blur perfector the starts off as a balm and dries into a powder. You can you use it a few different ways as it states on the Sephora website “Use it alone as an allover complexion perfector, to set makeup, or as a mattifying touch up to sweep away shine and hide imperfections. Featuring one universal shade that complements all skin types, it instantly minimizes the look of pores so that skin feels smoother and the complexion appears more even.”


I tried it alone and it worked great! It made my skin look and feel so soft and just putting a powder over it made my skin look smooth, matte, and even. Using it this way though just felt more like a primer and I wanted to see what it would be like to use to set my make up or as a touchup while out during the day. 


Using it to set my makeup was a total miss and fail! It was actually disgusting! I did all of my makeup complete with the Touche Elcat Blur Primer, foundation, powder, contour, blush, highlight and all my eye makeup and lipstick. I used the YSL Touche Eclat Blur Perfector after all of that to “set my makeup” and all it did was breakup my foundation! It was an absolute mess! It looked like chunks of my makeup were missing and kind of like my face looked scaly and uneven. All of the makeup that was on my nose totally broke up and I was left with huge patches of missing makeup! I had to wipe off my face makeup and start the entire process over! Complete and total fail there!


The next day, I was actually quite disgusted with the product.  I didn’t even want to use it but made myself so I could see what it would work like as a touchup throughout the day. I wanted to see if it made my T-Zone matte since in the summer that is where I notice most of my shine. After about 2 hours I noticed some shine so I tried the compact out and it worked pretty well. It did break up a tiny bit on my nose but if I applied more of the product it evened itself out. After about 6 hours my makeup was wearing off a bit and I was shiny, I used the YSL Touche Eclat Blur Perfector and this is when the product worked perfectly! I had to use quite a bit and blend it but it made my face look way more matte, smooth, and even. I was impressed! It looked like I just finished my makeup! The one thing that I really do not like about the Blur Perfector is how the applicator sponge does not fit into the compact! It is so unsanitary, sure they give you a pouch but that just gets dirty and who wants to carry around the applicator separate in their purse? I really think they should have thought this through. 


So, all in all, I love the Primer but the Blur Perfector is hit or miss. The Primer I have no complaints about and would most likely repurchase. The Blur Perfector works well as a base or if you don’t plan on wearing much makeup throughout the day. Using it to set your makeup just ruined my makeup but waiting until the end of the day to “touch up” my makeup the Blue Perfector was amazing! I don’t see myself repurchasing the Blur Perfector because it works the same as just a setting powder. 

I am really happy and honored I was able to receive these items to try and review! I look forward to reviewing more for Influenster in the future!

Spin For Perfect Skin- Review and Coupon code!

Spin For Perfect Skin brush from my instagram @adrienneroyale 

I have always believed that in order to have your makeup look great, you have to start with a flawless canvas. This is where skin care comes in place! There’s no denying that I am getting older (in two months I’ll be 32 ahhhh!!) and skin care has really become super important. I want to make sure my skin looks as fresh, flawless, and young looking as long as I can hold onto it!  Just washing my face and moisturizing just doesn’t cut it anymore and I needed something to really get all of the dirt and makeup off my face. When @vanityplanetstore contacted me to try out their Spin For Perfect Brush I was all for it! I always wanted to try one of these Spin Brushes but they are so pricey and wasn’t sure if it was really worth it! Now after using it for the last few weeks I don’t know how I ever lived without it! Plus on top of this product being amazing and helping my skin tremendously, which I will go into detail in my review in a few minutes, it is super affordable! You can get your very own Spin For Perfect Skin for 70% off using my coupon code "spinwithadrienne" that's a huge discount from $100 to $30!! You can even choose the color you want (black, grey, purple, lucite green, frosted blue or strawberry ice)! Using link http://vpwow.com/spinwithadrienne most Spin Brushes are over $100 dollar and this is only $30! I seriously can’t believe it!

The Spin For Perfect Skin that I chose was the purple one, I love how girly and cute it is. The Spin For Perfect Skin comes with 4 interchangeable brushes- a cleansing brush, body brush, exfoliating brush, and a pumice stone. I had no clue I would be getting all of these brushes for my body and feet so it was an extra treat when I received my package! It is really easy to use, you just pop on and off the brush heads that you want to use. The Spin brush takes 4 AA batteries and you can easily turn on and off the brush with just the push of the button.


What I love the most about this brush is how it comes with all of the different brushes and I find myself using almost all of them daily! I use the cleansing brush everyday no matter what. I take my makeup off like normal with a makeup wipe, than I just lightly wet my face, apply my favorite face wash, and then start using the Spin brush!  You control the pressure while using the Spin For Perfect Skin brush, there is no pain and just feels good! You can literally feel all of the dirt coming off of your skin! I do this for a couple of minutes, pop off the brush and rinse it with warm water, so it is all clean for the next time that I want to use it. There is always so much left over makeup and dirt in the brush that I never knew I wasn’t getting before just regularly washing my face! It is that easy with each brush! Just pick the brush you want to use, pop it on, turn on the brush, and use your favorite face or body wash and spin away all the dirt and makeup all over your face and body.


I adore the body brush and it has really helped my skin this summer so far! I LOVE to self-tan and always exfoliate before doing so. The exfoliator brush and the body brush really help prep my skin for self-tanning! The body brush is nice and large and only takes a few minutes to go over your entire body and you are left with super clean, baby soft skin! The exfoliator brush works wonders to and you can feel it deep cleaning!

Who doesn’t cherish soft feet? I know I do! Using the pumice stone has helped me achieve super smooth feet! Especially on my heels! With wearing sandals all summer long, my feet can take a pretty good beating and find myself getting dry heels or calculus from wearing high-heels. Using the pumice stone has made my feet feel a lot softer and smoother. What’s fantastic about all of these brushes is you can use them in the shower plus they are so fast and easy to use!



Using these brushes has really improved my skin, my skin feels and looks softer. I use to have a couple of dry patches on my skin and those are totally gone now and I am even noticing my pores have become less visible! Getting self-tanner off now is a breeze and my feet are always soft and ready for my husband to give me a foot rub haha! The Spin For Perfect Skin brush deep cleans and gets all the left over garbage off of your face. I always thought I did a pretty good job with washing my face but after using this brush and seeing all of the makeup and dirt I was missing I was surprised! I feel like my skin not just on my face but also my body looks a lot more radiant! I am getting less blemishes, I feel this could be because my pores are not clogged and my face is so much more fresh and clean. Now when I apply my makeup I have a flawless canvas to start on without any dry patches or blemishes!

I am so happy I had to opportunity to try the Spin For Perfect Skin brush and it will always be part of my daily routine! I still can’t get over how affordable it is and why I waited so long! 

Don’t forget you can also get your own Spin for Perfect skin using link http://vpwow.com/spinwithadrienne for 70% off using my coupon code "spinwithadrienne” only $30 from $100!


Have you used this brush before or are you planning on trying this brush?  If so let me know how you like it!

NEW Too Faced Love Palette- Review and Swatches


Too Faced Love Palette 

My all-time favorite eye shadow palette and the only palette I have ever hit pan on is the original Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette. I absolutely love Too Faced formula of their eye shadows and I usually pick up most of their palettes. So, of course I had to get their new Love Palette and I am here today to share my thoughts!

Without a doubt, the packaging is super cute and fun. It has the theme of Love Letters and automatically makes me think about Nicholas Sparks! I love Nicholas Sparks and Too Faced so I had to have this palette! So it’s a given I love the look of the palette but what about the actual product? For starters this palette comes with 15 different shades with different finishes, which include matte, pearl, and shimmer finishes and comes with a full sized black waterproof eyeliner. You can purchase this on HSN, Too Faced, Ulta, or Sephora websites and it retails for $49 It should be hitting stores around July 15th. 

Inside of palette


The eye shadows are very detailed with heart textures and come in three different polygons, with of course 5 shadows in each. The names of each section are Pure Love, True Love, and Forbidden Love. I feel each section can create different looks from day to night and have an arrangement of colors, something for your lid, crease, and highlight. You can mix and match from each section to come up with a ton of looks! As always, Too Faced has added a Glamour Guide that can help you create looks. I personally just make up my own looks and never use the guides, but they are good to have if you’re just beginning or want to try something new.
Glamour Guides 



The packaging is very sturdy and strong but does feel a bit heavy. There is a large mirror inside the palette and behind the mirror is where the Glamour Guides are stored. They have different looks for each section.  I love this change they made, helps keep you more organized and keeps the glamour guides free from dirt and eyeshadow residue. The names of the eye shadow colors are on the bottom of the palette for easy reference. I really like this concept, it is way better than how they had the Chocolate Bar Palette with the clear sheet.

Outside of packaging 
Bottom of palette with eye shadow names 


I appreciate how Too Faced included the full size black water proof eyeliner and I have enjoyed using it! I am an Urban Decay eyeliner girl and only thing I use on my water line but for the last week I have been using this Too Faced eyeliner and it works well. It is an intense dark black color which is right up my ally! One side of the eyeliner has the actual product and the other side a smudger. The eyeliner stays in place all day under my waterline, but actually inside my waterline it did get patchy and I had to reapply it at least once threw out the day. I had no irritation and the color intensity is beautiful. The eyeliner is creamy and the smudger worked nicely under my waterline. I don’t think I would replace my UD eyeliner with this one but I am happy to have it added to my collection and a nice backup.



Now on to the fun part the actual eyeshadows!

Section one- Pure Love


Dearest- beautiful yellow-gold shade
Cherish- soft champagne shade with shimmer
Desire-love this for crease color and blending, it’s the perfect browny color
Amorous- great shade to smoke out any look, a deep brownish black color, very buildable
Adore- bronzed orange shade, absolutely stunning!

The waterprood eyeliner is also pictured in the swatch as you can see it is a very dark bold black 

Unedited swatches colors are from bottom to top- Dearest, Cherish, Desire, Amorous, Adore 

Section Two- True Love


Passion-purple/mauve gray toned color
Smitten- a light baby pink but this shade was very powdery for me and not much color payoffWhen applied almost blended completely away.
Romance- another great crease and blending shade, beautiful taupe color
Obsessed- this is my favorite shade out of the palette, while in the pan it looks lighter then Amorous it is actually darker and great pigmentation. It is a rich brown with specs of a variety colors. I am literally obsessed with this color!
Sweetie Pie- very pretty bubble gum pink shade
 
Unedited swatches colors are from top to bottom- Passion, Smitten,,Romance, Obsessed, Sweetie Pie

Section Three-Forbidden Love


Darling- medium green/gold color, this is the color that caught my eye in the palette. I like how this color has a lot of dimension to it and how the different light catches different colors.
Devotion- this color is truly unique, the color in the pan looks like a light shimmery gold but once on your eyelid or swatched it is like a mix of a sliver, gold and white. Stunning as a highlight
Puppy Love- another taupe brown color but this one has more shimmer to it
Ever Lasting- deep brown color but I can see specs of green in this shade
XOXO-this could have been a beautiful color if it would show up on my eyelid, this is the only shade I had issues with it is a very faint iridescent peach/orange shade
Unedited swatches colors are from bottom to top- Darling, Devotion, Puppy Love, Everlasting, XOXO


How cute are the names of the actual eye shadows?! The eye shadows are creamy, soft and easy to blend. They have a lot of pigmentation and long lasting. My only issue is there are so many shimmery shades. I would have liked to see some more matte colors in the palette. All of the shades on the lower part of the sections are probably my favorite and while not extremely pigmented they are buildable. I found myself using those shades the most for creating a smokey eye and smoking out my bottom lash line. The two colors that I had issues with are Smitten and XOXO, neither of these came off very vibrant on my eyelid. Some of the shadows come off a little powdery in the pan but I personally did not experience any fallout from any of the eye shadows when applying them to my eyelid. I like how Too Faced mixed up this palette with neutral and darker shades, then added in some fun colors! The green color Darling is just that DARLING! It is stunning and will be great to use in fall. As always, I use a primer when applying the eyeshadows, usually my Mac Paint Pot and the eye shadows didn’t budge all day long. There was slight fading but I did not have to reapply. I do want to point out that all of these eye shadows are extremely buildable, while they may not come off vibrant when you first apply the shadows, adding several layers creates a bold color. 
 
Makeup mess featuring the Love Palette from my IG @adrienneroyale 

I think I will reach for this palette a lot! While using the Love Paleete I did not add any other palette in. I was able to create looks without adding in other eye shadows from various palettes or single eye shadows. There are enough colors to make a large variety of looks. Overall I am extremely happy with my purchase and pleased with Too Faced!

The new Too Faced Love Flush blush in Justify My Love- Review and Swatch

Too Faced makeup mess featuring the new Love Flush Blush and Love Palette on my Instagram @adrienneroyale 


Too Faced has done it again! Brought us the cutest new blushes and new eyeshadow palette out this season! There should be no wonder why Too Faced is my favorite makeup brand, not only is their packaging super cute, their products are excellent, high-quality and my newest additions to my Too Faced collection definitely did not disappoint!


I picked up the new Love Flush blush in Justify My Love and the stunning Love Passionately Pretty Eyeshadow collection. I was able to order these off the HSN website before they were even released on Too Faced website or any stores! Woowhooo score! I have been using each of these products for the last couple of weeks so I thought now would be a good time to share my thoughts on them.
 
Sweetheart blushes and new Love Flush blush in Justify My Love 

I knew as soon as I saw the packaging of the new Love Flush blush it would be something I would totally want. These blushes are marketed to be long-lasting 16 hour wear! Pretty impressive! There are 6 different shades, which are Baby Love, Justify My Love, I Will Always Love You, Love Hangover, How Deep Is Your Love, and Your Love Is King. I only picked up one so far since I wanted to try one out before I went ahead and collected them all. Of course I chose the one that was the prettiest pink.
Packaging blush and palette came in

Outside of packaging of the blush and palette 


My first impression of this blush was “Whooooa this is TINY!” I was expecting it to be around the size of the Soul Mates bronzers since it is such similar packaging but instead of the black packing, each blush package matches the color of the blush inside the package. The packaging is in a heart shape, compact and can go with you anywhere. Actually it is bit refreshing since the last packaging of the Sweetheart Blushes were large and bulky. I love how the package is shaped like a heart with the pretty “Too Faced” gold writing! Once you open up the blush (which I should mention is quite hard to open and can be a bit annoying) you have a nice sized mirror. The product is gorgeous and so detailed! The two little bunnies are way too cute! The blush was everything I thought it would be besides the size. I was pretty hung up on that, but quickly got over it once I flipped over the package and saw the blush is 6.0g. While the Sweetheart Blushes may look like they have more product, they actually don’t, they only have 5.5g. I was relieved, considering I have had my Sweetheart Blushes for months and barely looks like any product has been used!
Comparison in size of the Too Faced Soul Mates Bronzer and Love Flush Blush 




While using the actual blush, it comes off as a beautiful bright pink and has tiny little gold sparkles in it. The sparkles are not extremely noticeable, but do give you a nice shimmer finish. I heard the blush was supposed to smell like candy, this is not really the case for me. Nothing strong like the chocolate smell you get from their chocolate line. I can smell a faint “candy-like smell” but also smells slightly like Play-Doh to me. The smell doesn’t bother me, but it is not a selling point like the Chocolate Bar Palettes. The blush is a bit powdery but there is ton of color pay off and very pigmented. I can’t tell you if it lasts a full 16 hours because I haven’t had my makeup on that long, but definitely does last longer than 8 hours. I didn’t have to do any type of touch-ups and there wasn’t much fading.

Love Flush blush in Justify My Love

Overall I love the blush and it was silly of me to say that I wanted to try one out before I picked up any others for my collection, because who am I kidding, I now want them ALL! My next purchase will totally be the shade Love Hangover! Besides being a bit difficult to open and the slight scent there are no downfalls with this blush. I have seen these blushes available now on HSN, Sephora, and Ulta and retail for $26.  I still have not seen these in store but I am sure they will be hitting shelfs soon! If you’re a blush addict like me, make sure to pick-up one of these beauties and let me know your thoughts on them!
