Benefit Cosmetics Roller Liner offers precision, a matte finish, multiple shades and even a nifty shrunken mini that allows you to ink up wherever freely with ease.

They see us rolling, they hating… they’ll just have to catch us riding preetttyyy (Lol)! Honestly, we are beyond thrilled that Benefit Cosmetics has decided to expand their Roller lineup with a couple new products.

What can you cop from them right now? Well, Benefit is releasing a Roller Eye Bright Pencil (more on that in our upcoming post later today) as well as the highly anticipated Roller Liner.

Benefit is well-known for their great working beauty items so it comes as no surprise that Roller Liner is already testing high. So high the brand decided to post the results right smack on the packaging. Thus, revealing that over 90% experienced Roller Liner creating a smooth continuous line with ease and having it staying put without budging in the process. Score.

Therefore, if you are looking for a liquid eyeliner that does a very good job, then this is it. Regarding their Roller Liner, Benefit Cosmetics states,

“Someone call FINE one one. Our NEW Roller Liner Liquid Eyeliner is the newest member of our roller lash collection. The precision tip has a matte finish and will last for 24 hours! Available in black and brown for $22 everywhere Benefit is sold!

[So then] just wing it gorgeous! This new addition to the Roller family is perfect to create any liner look. Also, available in a cute mini… for all you Babes on the go!”

Ugh… looks like we’re all going to be just a little more broke this month. Brands are releasing products like wildfire and we are literally just on day 4 of 2019 (yup, let that sink in). Nevertheless, this new Roller is definitely one that should be high on the must-have list.

Arianne January 2, 2019January 2, 2019

SHOTS Fired! Looks like we got us a good ol’ makeup battle going on in the beauty realm! With the release of Morphe cosmetics new 60 shade deep foundation, many were wondering what Fenty Beauty was up to in that very department. Well, don’t think for one second the queen is not always working on that new new. Just today Rih revealed that 2019 will see the fulfillment of Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Foundation 50 shades lineup. Yup, the Fenty’s foundation range is growing and we are here for it all!

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Foundation 50 Shades -10 NEW Tones

So what’s new? Well, if you recall, Fenty Beauty started it all when it released 40 shades of foundation that fit a large range of skin tones. An area in beauty that often did not receive much attention. However, that was just the start for Rihanna. The singer has been consistently adding more colors to all of her various product creations; from Gloss Bombs to Mattemoiselle lippies.

Now Rih’s already extensive and successful 40 tone foundation is gaining 10 new hues in the sisterhood. In regards of this new release the brand says,

“But are y’all really ready?!? We are adding 10 more Pro Filt’r Foundation shades, for a total of 50, to the collection. These shades were specifically created by Rihanna to match skin tones y’all didn’t know we could.

Same soft-matte, longwearing, light as air; and photo-shoot ready formula that y’all know and love. With more shades to match more skin tones! Get it on January 11 at fentybeauty.com, Sephora, Harvey Nichols and Sephora in JCP!”

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Foundation 50 Shades -10 NEW Tones (Continued)

What’s a new shade that is definitely a must see? We are loving the fact that shade 498 has been added. It is a DEEP dark brown tone that is gorgeous. Top model, Khoudia Diop models it to a “T.” Check out the video below to see how she works it!

So then, dolls don’t forget that the new shades are coming this month. January 11th is the day to keep in mind. Happy showing and go Rihanna for always keeping us and the world on our beauty toes!

Morphe Fluidity Foundations -60 Shades of Foundation!

ArianneUpdated on January 2, 2019January 2, 2019

Rihanna… girl, look what you have started! Since the genesis of Fenty Beauty, several cosmetics companies have been hard at work in the lab developing foundations that more suitably match their consumer base. The first exciting foundation release of 2019; hands down is the Morphe Fluidity Foundation. A beauty product that boasts a jaw-dropping 60 different shades!

Morphe Fluidity Foundations -60 Shades of Foundation

No that is no typo. 60. 60 shades of foundation is on the table for us over at Morphe. The brand has been a tad bit cryptic, not really giving much away about all of this. Regarding their upcoming release Morphe simply reveals,

“Leave no tone unturned. Introducing Fluidity. 60 tone-empowering shades, for every babe. Launching 1.17.19.”

As one can see, Morphe isn’t trying to say much at all yet. Maybe they don’t want to oversell it; because of the wild success Fenty Beauty is still having. However, this foundation release is nothing to just brush off.

It is still another drop in the bucket that helps to improve the state of the beauty industry. For years, many skin tones have been ignored and now brands are finally waking up to the fact that light, medium and dark just won’t cut it.

One thing that we love so far about this product is that… well, actually there’s quite a bit to love. Besides the awesome range in colors, Fluidity is also:

Transfer Resistant
Longwear
Parabens Free
Water Resistant
Oil Free
Sweat Proof
Fragrance Free

Ugh… we stan Morphe, take our money already! Therefore, how much will Fluidity cost you? Get this… it’s UNDER $20! Yes, Morphe Fluidity Foundation will retail for just $18. 2019 is looking real real good!

Want a preview of the Fluidity’s tones? Watch the video below:

PSSST… there’s more… Morphe is also releasing concealer and powder shades! More on that later today so check back!
