Spotted: CIRCA Beauty and Nonie Creme Colour Prevails Displays at Walgreens

They're here! I've heard from several of you in the past week who have spotted both the new CIRCA Beauty and Nonie Creme Colour Prevails displays at your local Walgreens (both lines have been available online for a few weeks now at Walgreens.com and Drugstore.com). And guess what? Both displays contain TESTERS!

PLEASE NOTE: Both of these lines are considered "masstige," which basically means prestige level cosmetics at more affordable price-points (in other words, they're more expensive than your standard mass-market makeup, but the packaging is nicer and they may possibly have better formulations than standard mass-market products). If you missed my previous posts about these two new brands, CIRCA Beauty is a new makeup brand by actress Eva Mendes (you can check out my review of a few products HERE). Nonie Creme Colour Prevails is a new makeup brand by the former founding Creative Director of ButterLONDON, Nonie Creme. I'll be posting my reviews of some Colour Prevails nail polishes and one of the eyeshadow palettes here on the blog later today. Both of these new brands are exclusive to Walgreens, including Drugstore.com and Duane Reade, which are both owned by Walgreens.

I want to thank reader Tiffany for sharing the following pics of the displays she spotted at her local Walgreens this week (and thank you to everyone who took the time to share pics with me over social media--I really appreciate that and I'm sorry I can't include all of your pics here--there's so much to cover that I tried to keep this as brief as possible!).

First Impressions: Circa Beauty by Eva Mendes (New Walgreens-Exclusive Makeup Brand)

Shortly after I first told you about this new Walgreens-exclusive line of makeup by celebrity Eva Mendes, the products became available on the Walgreens site, as well as Drugstore.com (owned by Walgreens). So you know I had to place an order! I believe that, eventually, this entire line will be available in-store at Walgreens, but for now you have to purchase these products online.

One of the problems with trying a new brand for the very first time, without any reviews to help guide you, is trying to decide what to purchase. I went with an eyeshadow trio (there are also singles in this line), a lipstick, and then I picked a wild card. I wanted something that seemed a bit unique, so I opted for a lip and cheek stain.

Now that I've had a little time to try these products, I want to share my initial impressions with you. So let's get started!

Just In: Photo of the New CIRCA Beauty Cosmetics Line by Eva Mendes

So after I posted about the new cosmetics line by Eva Mendes that's debuting this month at Walgreens, I set up a Google Alert hoping that a photo of the actual products would pop up online soon. And guess what? It did! I just added it to my original post HERE (along with some additional product info) if you'd like to check it out. I'd love to know what you think after you see the picture!
