Hi, guys!!! Sorry I've been gone...it was an unintended absence filled with family stuff and more work than usual! It's nothing bad, just a lot more time consuming and stressy than normal (and my life is generally not filled with stress!!!) so my head was anywhere but blogging ha ha! Hopefully things are back to normal, and I can resume my regularly irregular blog schedule :-P

Instead of jumping back into the blog pool with some long winded reviews or Empties post (those will be later LOL), thought I would start off easy by showing you some new beauty goodies I have yet to try!

***All items purchased by me or received as a gift. This is not a sponsored post.***

When Snow Magic Sheet Mask - This one caught my eye because the description said it has a jelly-like texture made from coconut juice and it's supposed to not be sticky. Most sheet masks I've tried do leave a somewhat sticky/tacky feeling, even if it's slight...very curious to see if this lives up to that claim! This one has hyaluronic acid, ginseng and niacinimide.

Caolion Blackhead Steam Pore Pack - I have the Premium Blackhead O2 Bubble Pore Pack from this brand, and I've really been loving it...wanted to see how this one works in comparison.

Herbivore Brighten Pineapple Enzyme + Gemstone Instant Glow Mask - Fruit Enzyme exfoliating masks seem to be a dime/dozen these days, but this one also contains tourmaline gemstone and rice powder to help with the physical exfoliation. Sounds really interesting, plus 've been using the Herbivore Pink Clay Gentle Cleanse Clay Soap Bar and really like it so far!! I definitely want to explore the brand more!

Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector in 04 - I had one of these ages ago, but didn't 100% love the color so I think I returned it or purged it - can't remember which. Anyway, saw there were some new colors and it caught my attention again.

Burberry S/S 2016 Runway Palette in 01 White - Well I wasn't at all interested in this when I saw pictures many months ago. But a review, video and the words LIMITED EDITION had me sprinting to the nearest buy button, heart racing and all! Whoops. It's gorgeous, that's for sure!!! Hopefully it performs as beautifully as it looks!

Laura Mercier Blemish-Less Foundation Primer - I've not yet been wowed by the couple of LM primers I've tried, but this one had me super curious! Why? Because it's a water-based gel formula that's supposed to improve the appearance of blemishes and help control shine. I plan on using this down my nose and chin area, while still using an illuminating primer elsewhere. Fingers crossed!

Have you tried any of these items? Thoughts??

Hope you all are well - can't wait to chat with you again!!! xoxoxo :-)
