I am going to be sharing the products I selected from Sephora.com which I got as a birthday present from my sweet hubby. This is the first time I selected stuff from the Sephora website so I am very excited for this package. There's many things in life that can make me happy and make up is on the top list for me. Besides, trying high end products for the first time makes it a little more special too.
Above are all the products I received. Most of this package consist of small samples except for the Too Faced palette and the Sephora by Opi jewelry top cot in gold.
Package List:
- Lancôme La vie est belle / sample
- Nest Midnight Fleur / sample
- Escada Cherry In The Air / sample
- BareMinerals Complexion /sample
- Benefit Happy Birthday Beautiful / sample
- Tarte The Bright Time Deluxe Maracuja Oil.
- Too Faced Natural Eye Shadow.
- Sephora by Opi Jewelry Top Coats in Gold.
It's not the first time I use bareMinerals make up and brushes so it's safe to say that this is one of my favorite brands and for a good reason. I love that is formulated without: parabens, sulfates, synthetic fragrance, synthetic dyes, petrochemicals, phthalates, GMO'S, and triclosan. Not only this but from experience I've seen this make up rarely makes me break out and it's almost safe to sleep with it if I too lazy to take it off. Their brushes are super soft so this mini kabuki brush felt just as soft as the full size brushes. The stroke of light illuminator was new to me so trying it for the first time was great but a little too sheer for me. I prefer one that has a thicker consistency plus a little more coverage.
I am in LOVE with these two and have officially made these my number one mascara and one of my top illuminator for cheekbones. The "They Are Real" mascara was something I had been waiting to try myself for a while because all I ever read was how great it was from reviews and watching videos. As for the "What's up" illuminator the final effect was like putting shiny dust up my cheekbones so the results were pretty. I will be deff be getting the full size samples whenever possible of these two.
Deluxe maracuja oil & eye treatment from Tarte is a product I stumble a few seconds before I was about to finish my order and so far I am glad I added it to my birthday gift list. My favorite is the pure maracuja oil because every time I use it I can visibly see that my skin texture appears softer and renewed. Also, I love that I can use this oil as my night cream so it can replace any other regular cream or lotion after washing my face. As for the maracuja C-brighter eye treatment the results aren't visibly right away but I know that by applying this at night I am taking care of the skin around my eyes with its great antioxidants ingredients. It is never too soon to start taking care of the delicate skin around your eyes and using a night cream.

This top coat from Sephora by Opi is another nice addition to my nail polish collection that is growing pretty fast. For a while I wanted to get a gold glitter top coat but not from any particular brand. The gold glitter is really pretty on top of any matte color or by itself too.
This is one of my favorites ways to do my nails because it is obviously fast to do and it always looks perfect for any special occasion. I used the Sephora by Opi top coat on top of 3 different colors and one by itself.
I am completely in love with this palette and love the cute packaging. The is the one thing that I am most excited about getting because I really wanted to get a new eye shadow palette since the first one I got from Elf.com wasn't working for me. Included there's a eye shadow sample primer called shadow insurance to try with the palette that is anti-crease and promises to make colors brighter too.
A fun and helpful addition to this palette are these note cards telling you simply ideas to use with this palette. These colors are very beautiful and pigmented. This palette is perfect to create a natural eye make up during the day.
