Sugar n’ Spice
Autumn is the perfect time for baking seasonal comforts like warm apple pie, scrumptious pumpkin desserts, and other sugary indulgences. Whether you are seeking comfort or wanting to experiment, these latest launches help set the mood. In the spirit of the season, Too Faced launched a playful limited-edition Cinnamon Swirl eyeshadow palette that not only offers rich, warm beautiful tones but is also cinnamon roll scented for an elevated experience. With fragrance reflecting lifestyle, consumers are selective in the ambience they create for their homes which is why Blue Mercury’s Amber Black Vanilla promises
to offer a welcoming aroma for the home with notes of orange, raspberry, luscious black vanilla, and spicy clove.
