Hi all! I did a little haul during the recent Sephora VIB Appreciation sale. I’m currently just an Insider (I usually shop at Ulta). I’m close to being a VIB, which will be nice for the next sale!
Here are the products I purchased. There’s swatches at the end:
Stila Glitter On The Go Liquid Eye Shadow Set ($25) I’ve been wanting to try these for a while. The shades are:
Rose Gold Retro – rose gold & silver Kitten Karma – champagne, silver & copper Smoldering Satin – deep tan & silver
I think these are so pretty, but they are sooooo glittery. I tried them on and they left glitter all over my face. These definitely aren’t an every day product, so I have to firgure out where to wear them!
BITE BEAUTY French Press Lip Gloss ($18 USD) — This collection of lip glosses contains hydrating coffee butters and arabica cold press coffee oil, and has a sweet mocha flavor.
I have heard a lot about this and especially the shade I got, Flat White. I have fair/light skin, but this is still a bit light for me. And it has more coverage than I thought it would. It’s not sheer. But If I use it over a darker liner or lipstick, I think it will look nice. And it does feel creamy on, not sticky. So I’ll continue using it.
This is the Natasha Denona Super Glow Highlighter ($38 USD) — This super-soft, lightweight formula melts into the skin. It gives a glass-like strobing effect thanks to its high concentration of crushed and milled chroma crystals mixed with crushed pearls.
I have this in the fair shade, Icy Ivory. It’s so gorgeous! But, it’s not really an every day glow. But I want to use it everyday because the glow looks healthy as well as booming! So I like to brush a little translucent powder on top to tone it down. I kind of want this in Light Medium – nude champagne next.
Swatches:
From left to right -Bite lip gloss in Flat White, Stila Glitter & Glow in Rose Gold Retro, Kitten Karma, Smoldering Satin, and Natasha Denona highlighter in Fair.
I chose 3 freebies. The Lancome Monsieur Big Mascara is so amazing. I was going to buy a full-sized at the Ulta sale on Friday, but I didn’t make it to the store. This is a decent little size, so I’ll take it. I am looking forward to trying the Marc Jacobs Shameless primer and foundation. I did’t choose the Rahua shampoo an condition, but I’ll use them.
Did you shop the latest Sephora sale? What did you pick up? I have been shopping the Ulta 21 Days of Beauty sale (and I’m not done yet). I will be doing at least one post on that sale!
Aww!! that stila glitter eyeshadow are so flattering 🙂
You need to use a glitter primer/glitter glue with those Stila ones to minimize fallout. I use the NYX one and it works well.
I didn’t get anything during the sale as I had rent due that same time. Plus nothing really caught my eye and I had treated myself to a few things earlier in the month for my birthday.
