i love the smell of sephora...

i went shopping at sephora.

does anyone else just love the smell of the store? it smells like MAKEUP!


first up is actually a gift for my mom [hopefully she does not see this!] 
Laura Mercier's Book of Nudes is a gorgeous palette.
the book holds 8 shadows, 1 liner, and 3 cream cheek products- a bronzer, blush, & highlight. 

the thing i loved about this palette is the fact that there are 3 matte shades [buff, fresco, granite]. the rest of the shadows are shimmers or satins, with the exception of one glitter [tiger's eye]. 

this palette is great for someone who needs a few basic neutral eyeshadows, including matte sculpting shades that can be used for everyday basic looks. someone like my mom!

Dior Addict lipgloss in Flash 756.





Sephora Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover.

i got a tiny baby sample of this eye makeup remover as a 100 point perk in sephora a few weeks ago. i threw it in my bathroom drawer and continued using my HG eye makeup remover, Sonia Kashuk Remove. i ran out of it, and was planning to repurchase for about the 4th time, but in the meantime i began using the sephora sample. AMAZE! i dont wear waterproof liner or mascara, but because its a waterproof formula, i feel like it gives it extra removing powers. it also does a pretty decent job at dissolving my lash glue. it doesnt feel oily on my skin and does not sting my sensitive eyes. the sonia kashuk remover is a bit better in the fact that it literally feels like WATER. the sephora remover is by no means oily, but i can just barely feel it on my skin after im done. both coming in around $9, they are very comparable, good makeup removers.




Urban Decay De-Slick in a Tube Mattifying Gel.





Lancome Teint Idole Fresh Wear foundation. [18 hour shine free makeup with SPF 15].

this is my next stop in the hunt for an HG base...





Laura Mercier Mineral Powder SPF 15 in Natural Beige.

this is something i have had my eye on for SO long since i saw Tanya from Pixi2woo rave about this powder foundation as being great coverage, and good for sensitive skin.






Anastasia Brow Powder Duo in Brunette/Dark BRown.





Laura MErcier Secret Camouflage concealer palette in SC 3.

i have wanted this concealer palette since my love and life Kandee Johnson (kandeethemakeupartist.com) used it in all her tutorials back in the day.
