Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already.

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Congrats Christine, I saw your update on Twitter about the 100,000 comment and that’s a LOT of have to read daily. XD Are you serious about the 187 brush? That’s literally one of the brushes that was stolen when my makeup bag got raided when someone decided they wanted to ‘haul’ off of me. But anyways, it’s a great milestone. Let’s go for a million. 😉
