Sephora Is Doing Quiet Hours for Aunties Like Me

5 days ago | musingsofamuse.com | Isabella Muse

I went to meet some of my fellow Reddit Whovians this weekend and I happen to be a chatty kind of girl but I strongly suspect they choose the location of our meet at an extra noisy place (so, they didn’t have to talk!). Everyone was a tad bit awkward and I felt like I was the only one trying to chat it up. It was odd because online everyone won’t shut up but in real life everyone was sort of quiet.
Sydney Sweeney Is Selling You Her Bath Water Infused in a Bar of Soap

1 week ago | musingsofamuse.com | Isabella Muse

Listen, if we can watch Barry Keoghan sipping Jacob Elordi bathwater (and other un-mentiomable bodily fluids) we can totally buy Sydney Sweeney’s new Bathwater Bliss Soap. I don’t see the problem here. No but seriously, I am kind of sort of grossed out by that. Like, why? But dude, there’s a fetish for everything and I’m not going to yuck anyone’s yum.
Listen,, Zoomers and Alphas Get Off My Pinterest You're Making Me Feel Old

1 week ago | musingsofamuse.com | Isabella Muse

I was creeping all over Maxky’s Tiktoks about a week or so ago. Like you know, weird stalking the comments type stuff (don’t even sit and judge because you know the comments are where all the insanity happens). And someone said and I quote, “Too bad he’s too old”. Now wait one damn minute that boy is 30. If he’s old WTF am I? I’m not an auntie anymore, not even grandma, apparently I’ve graduated to great grandmother according to Generation Z and A.

E.L.F. Cosmetics Price Increase Set for August 1st

1 week ago | musingsofamuse.com | Isabella Muse

In 2022, E.L.F. raised their prices with fair warning to their customers. It was a nice gesture on their part to take to social media (as well as via e-mail) and say hey, listen, grab your favs now because prices are going up. Well, here we are again. E.L.C. Cosmetics broke the news yesterday that prices are going up again as of August 1st. Starting August 1st prices will be raised by $1.
My Lipgloss Doesn't Have Enough SPF in It! No Problem I Got You!

2 weeks ago | musingsofamuse.com | Isabella Muse

Wakey, wakey! It’s Monday! Time to rise, shine, and be productive! Today we should probably discuss the lack of SPF in lip products or the fact we don’t have a lot of SPF lip products. It’s like we think about it a lot but our lips are just as vulnerable as the skin on our faces when it comes to being out in the sun. Exposure to the sun can increase premature aging that’s why protecting them is super important. I always find SPF in lip balms, glosses, and lipsticks lacking.
Colourpop Super Shock Shadows $3.50? Sign Me Up!

3 weeks ago | musingsofamuse.com | Isabella Muse

I miss the Super Shock Shadows days of old. Remember when Colourpop would drop some new collection and they’d have a three or foursome of new Color Shock Eyeshadows with the launch? I miss those days! I didn’t realize I’d miss them till they were gone. Don’t get me wrong their pressed shadows are divine but I really do love the Super Shock formula. It feels like they’re sort of phasing them out lately.
Here's Everything I Brought On Tiktok Recently That I Don't Need but Totally Wanted

3 weeks ago | musingsofamuse.com | Isabella Muse

Wakey wakey friends! It’s Monday! I’m still on a little mini vacay over here and just cleaned the AirBNB top to bottom like it’s my career choice. I hinched the sh1t out of this place. Honestly, it was completely flawless when we arrived but I’m just extra. Is anyone this anal or is it just me? My boyfriend just sat to the side with a raised brow the entire time.
LVHM Blames Amazon for Slow Sephora Sales

4 weeks ago | musingsofamuse.com | Isabella Muse

So, LVHM is over there blaming Amazon for slow Sephora sales. As for me, I’m all, say what now? According to LVHM CFO 2025’s Q1 earnings report was down 3% due to Amazon’s aggressive pricing strategy. Stores are thriving but e-commerce is taking a smaller hit in the US because of Amazon which isn’t actually beating Sephora prices but does match them at the same price.
Spring Things That Got Added to My Cart

4 weeks ago | musingsofamuse.com | Isabella Muse

I’m on vacation this week and the weather is stunning but I’m hearing we got some crappy weather back home. New York really doesn’t understand what it wants to do with Spring this year. How’s everyone doing? Sorry for the delay in posts lately. I’m just trying to find the energy to actually blog beauty lately. It feels tone deaf to talk about makeup when things feel a little insane with the world. But I keep trying to remind myself how many of you visit me to escape from the chaos. Thank you.
