Hello Lovlies!
Sorry I haven't posted in a little while, but I am finishing my last couple of weeks up at Cal State and have been crazy busy. Anyways, Sephora just had there big 20% off sale and well, I took advantage! I have had these items for a couple of weeks now, so I can honestly rate them based on my personal experience. If you love Marc Jacobs, Laura Mercier, Anastasia Beverly Hills, or Living Proof, then keep reading :)
Living Proof- my answer to a shampoo and conditioner without: parabens, sulfates, synthetic dyes, petrochemicals, phthalates, GMOs, and triclosan. I can't say enough good things about this product. If you are looking for hair care without all the harsh, nasty chemicals in most beauty products, definitely give this a try!
So, Anastasia Beverly Hills definitely knows what she is doing. I love her brow wiz pencil and had to try her brow gel. It is amazing if you have stubborn hairs that don't want to sit down smoothly, like mine. Eyebrows are such an important feature on your face- take care of them and make them pretty!
First of all, the Marc Jacobs bag is to die for. It is amazing quality, the perfect size, and so sleek looking. It comes with a cute little mirror as well. The Marc Jacobs Showstopper Holiday Set comes with this bag, mirror, lipgloss, liquid eyeliner, mascara, and his mini rolller ball honey perfume (which I forgot to place in the picture). While the bag was worth the purchase, I can't really say the same for the mascara. It does not have the greatest wand, and the formula is very runny. I love the packaging and size, but I don't plan on picking it up again any time soon. I really enjoy the perfume and would recommend it. It stays well throughout the day and has a nice scent. I would also recommend the eyeliner, but I do have to say, I think Stila's is better.
The eyeshadows come in a very sleek case and are beautiful colors. I absolutely love the left highlighter color and use it often. The blue eyeshadow lacks pigment compared to the other two colors. Overall, I do like this eyeshadow set but it won't be my "go-to" palette.
Okay, this is where things change for me with this Holiday Set. I am in LOVE with this lipgloss. I have never been a girl that could pull off red lips, until now! The color and pigmentation of this product is simply amazing. I am already looking to see what colors I want to try next, because of how amazing I found this one to be. It is in the color "Lust for Lacquer Lip Vinyl in Kiss This." If you want to spoil yourself with a high-end gloss, give Marc Jacob's a try!
Matching my red lips to my red starbucks cup :) Hopefully this shows you what a nice gloss it is and how much pigmentation is in the formula. LOVE!
Laura Mercier can seriously do no wrong in my book. This "Artist's Palette for Eyes" did not dissapoint! The colors are so wearable for an everyday look. I tried to swatch some of the colors for you to see on my arm, but the picture doesn't do it justice. I have used this palette everyday since I got it. The packaging is super cute and it has a mirror in it- what more could you ask for? Seriously, get it!
