Black Friday Sephora Haul

I did a little bit of damage during the Black Friday Sephora sale. Sephora's thing is they have little sets of $10 ($13 CAD) beauty deals. Some of them were amazing deals, some not so much. Here is everything they had listed: 

Here are the things I received today (Monday) 
I'm still waiting on one order (The Sephora mask set and the First Aid Beauty set) but I'm just going to talk about what I received. 

The Philosophy cleanser, I think, is the best deal of everything Sephora had to offer. It had a $56 (CAD) value for $13! 

The Too Faced and Boscia sets are gifts so I didn't open them. 

And.... The Smashbox set. I am not happy. I paid $13 for this set and they are TINY. Like, let me show you. I got the Benefit set FOR FREE with points. Just look. 
They all look like they could have came in the same FREE set. I'm not going to return it because I do want to try these products, but come on
Overall, so far I'm happy but I still have more things to receive!

I picked up a Nisim Shampoo, three mini Bath and Body Works lotions, It's a 10 hair mask and miracle leave-in product, Sephora eyeshadow and liner for my mom for her birthday, bareMinerals Bareskin foundation, and Katy Perry perfumes in Meow and Purr. 

I can't wait to try everything!

ALL Of My Palettes

Lately I've been less into nail polish and more into makeup. (Thanks, Colourpop!) I'm currently addicted to foundations and... eyeshadow palettes! I want all of them. I have a fairly small collection right now, most of them are BH Cosmetics because the price is fab, but I've been eyeing high end palettes like I'm rich. So here is my current eyeshadow palette collection, which I'm hoping to grow with time.


I have only used this palette once for a purple look to support Epilepsy Awareness, and it was good for that! I got this palette for free with an order, BH Cosmetics does that a lot. I'll probably swatch these in a separate post sometime soon because these colours are unique. I think you could do a LOT with these, and unfortunately "A LOT" is out of my comfort zone, so this palette is unused 99.99% of the time. :( 

Okay. As soon as I saw this palette, I needed it. I'm ALL about neutrals, and I watched YouTube Videos of this palette and the swatches were INCREDIBLE. I use it quite often, it definitely lived up to my expectation and I really do love it. The pigmentation is incredible for the price so I highly recommend this. 

BH Cosmetics That's Heart
I also got this palette for free from BH Cosmetics (with a purchase, of course) and I'm glad. I would have never picked this for myself. It comes with 8 shadows, a blush, a highlight, and a bronzer. I've never used the brush or the bronzer but I used the highlight like crazy. The shadows are definitely pigmented and versatile and it has face products too! The packaging is super girly and I ADORE it. Unfortunately I can't find it on their website right now so it may be discontinued.  
I've already done a post about this palette, I love it, Asteroid is the perfect brown with my brown eyes. There's a wide range of colours, the pigmentation is good, I just love it. 

I got this palette as a deal, it was something like $6.95 with a $15(?) purchase so I figured, why not? I've honestly not used this much, never used the blush and I've only used some of the eyeshadows. I like the fact that it has a liner with it. I definitely could have passed on it, even though the packaging is stunning. 

I got this for free with a purchase and... meh. I'm a neutral eye girl. I just don't reach for this product... ever. I've barely even swatched these colours. It was free though so I'm glad I have it, but I just don't reach for it very often and I'm going to try to work on that. 

Ugh.. I hate saying this. I really, really do. I actually... regret this palette. I don't like it. At all. I hate it. The picture they originally showed of the palette when they released it was different than the actual colours of the shadows. I don't like the colours that they actually are. I also get a LOT of fallout from these shadows. They're very chalky and I just don't like them. I made a review about it here.

Sephora Baked Eye Shadows In The Tropics
I made a brief post about this palette when I got it as part of a Christmas swap and as you can tell, it has gotten some love! I love the versatility and I love the fact that they're baked eyeshadows. I have absolutely no complaints on this palette. 

This. Is. My. FAVOURITE. Palette. Of. All. Time. Like I've mentioned, I'm all about neutral eyes. A few reasons I love this palette: Mixture. There are shimmers, mattes, etc. Blendable. These shadows blend so well it's like magic. THE BRUSH. Often times I'll neglect a palette because they don't have a brush. I like things to be easy.I like products that come with the utensils. That could just be me. Either way this palette has gotten the most love from me. 

This palette is a close second to Naked 2. (but not really that close) I love it for all the same reasons that I love my Naked 2, I just prefer the brown shades more than rose golds. This was my first high end palette ever! 

This is my dream palette. Mattes, shimmers, colour variety within my comfort zone, SMELLS LIKE CHOCOLATE... there's no doubt I would use this palette like a mofo.. If it had a brush. I hate having to find a brush just to use it. I unfortunately don't really have makeup brushes (yet) so it's a hassle to use most of the time. Other than that though, I LOVE IT. So. Much. 

This is the same as the original Chocolate Bar. I love these. I LOVE the packaging, in fact I actually keep both of these in their original box because they're so cute. 


So, I obviously have a lot of BH Cosmetics palettes, which is a little embarrassing, but they're great! I love owning palettes, I love buying them, I love collecting them. I hate buying single eyeshadows (except ColourPop. ugh.) If you want to see any swatches of a palette, let me know and I'll do that!

Sephora NARS Birthday Gift

On Valentine's Day, my boyfriend ordered me makeup from Sephora. He created an account, and since his birthday is in January, he qualified for the gift. He chose to get me the NARS lip pencils instead of getting himself the men's birthday gift so here are the swatches!

12 Days of Christmas Advent Swap Day 9!

On the ninth day of Christmas, my swap partner gave to me...
Sephora Baked Eyeshadow Palette In The Tropics!! I practically screamed when I opened this. I barely own any high end makeup! This palette is PERFECT!

Thank you so much lovely!
