Some very odd looking Pat Mcgrath EYEdols Eye Shadow popped up at Costco today!

But first a little back story…

When COVID started we got a Costco Membership. Yes, a Costco Membership. This from two people who used the fridge to store bottle water. Needless to say we used to eat out a lot or order in if we were ever home. Travel, socializing, etc…left us with an empty fridge most of the days of our lives but when the pandemic struck we decided that a Costco Membership was needed. We needed to be prepared because we knew the zombie plague was upon us and everything we had planned for the big day wasn’t implemented. Were we ready for the zombies? Did we have enough food? Enough cans of soups? Twinkies?

We were not prepared but Costco would prepare us.

No, but seriously we did actually get a Costco membership during the pandemic. We travel a lot and we don’t stay home often so having lots of food on handy was a bit wasteful but nowadays we do Costco hauls (And we cook food on the stove in our kitchen! Who even knew you could do that?). There’s something to be said about buying big boxes of toilet paper that last you a year. It feels very adult-like shopping at a warehouse store that sells bulk bins of grapes and fifty can cases of soup.

Costco also sells cool stuff like makeup and skincare. But I gotta admit when Pat Mcgrath popped up the website I raised a brow! These do not quite look like the EYEdols Eyeshadow we know and love. One good plus is the fact that they have eliminated all the wasteful sequins these typically come packaged it. That’s cool however, the casing is completely different. EYEdols Eyeshadow has a more rounded case and these are flat. Hmmmm….! Honestly at $9.99 each I’d say get them at patmcgrath.com for $12.50 instead as these look a little off!

What do you think of the Pat Mcgrath EYEdols Eyeshadow Costco Edition?

Tarte Tartelette Juicy Amazonian Clay Eyeshadow Palette is a new Spring 2021 eyeshadow palette featuring 20 brand new Tarte Eyeshadows in rosy and bronze shades! It’s stunning and obviously based off the Holiday 2020 Lil’ Juicy Palette includes in the Tartelette Give, Gift, Get Amazonian Clay Eyeshadow Wardrobe! You might recall that I mentioned in my Tarte Holiday 2020 post that Lil’ Juicy was probably a preview of Spring 2021 and I was right.

This is a stunning palette! I love the soft pinks, tans, roses, and cranberries! I know they aren’t incredibly unique but together in the palette they look lovely. I will most definately be picking this up. It actually features 10 matte shades which I’m happy about as lately matte is totally my thing. I must be getting old. There are also six metallics and four pearls.

Shades:

• Water Lily (white champagne shimmer)
• Paradise (peach champagne shimmer)
• Rose (matte rosy pink)
• Orchid (pink shimmer)
• Dream Chaser (pink plum shimmer)

YSL Beauty Rouge Sur Mesure is a new custom lipstick shade device that allows you to mix different shades. The Bluetooth-enabled device contains three different lipstick color pods in a velvet cream matte finish that can be mixed and match to create a unique shade of lipstick. Each lipstick pod slips into the unique and when activated the color flows from the pods into the top portion of the Rouge Sur Mesure device. The top portion of the unit is a compact of sorts and can be removed and stashed away in your makeup bag for touch ups.

This is a fun, fun idea because I think we’ve longed for the days that we had some sort of awesome technology to create different shades of lipstick for us but you aren’t going to be Cher in Clueless with this thing (remember her cool computer that put together outfits for her and spit them out of her closet) nor Leeloo from the Fifth Element that had that brilliant device that instantly applied eyeshadow flawlessly on her eyes!

I call gimmick. Sorry YSL.
