Nars Sea of Love Set


This is one of the Christmas presents I received. I was SO excited when I opened the box and found this :)

This set includes a mini super orgasm blush, mini Turkish Delight lipgloss, mini multiple in orgasm, and a full size illuminator in laguna.

This set retails for $49, and in my opinion it's a tad bit pricey even though the full size illuminator costs $30, so it's like getting 3 deluxe minis for $20.

Super Orgasm Blush

  • chunky glitter
  • not as pigmented as other nars blushes
  • not a very wearable shade
  • blends nicely
Turkish Delight Lip Gloss
  • Plasticky taste/feel
  • Sheer color
  • Not long wearing
  • Good applicator
Multiple in Orgasm
  • Very pretty color/sheen
  • Blends nicely
  • On the sheer side (sheerer than the original)
  • Cream to powder finish
Illuminator in Laguna
  • Nice shade with some glitter
  • Blends nicely
  • Leaves some streaks behind
  • Suitable for sand-medium skin tones
Personally I do not reccomend this set, since the only things I ended up liking was the Illuminator and the Mini Multiple. If you do happen to like all of these items, then go for it!

Buxom Welcome to the Party Set


This is another one of my Sephora Black Friday finds! This limited edition set was $10 at sephora during black friday. It includes a FULL SIZE buxom mascara in the shade black, and a FULL SIZE eyeliner in the shade citrine.

The mascara retails for $19, and the eyeliner retails for $14. So those added together = $33, so I paid around a third for the price.

Mascara:

  • REALLY nice definition
  • Doesn't volumize lashes
  • Does an okay job at lengthening
  • When combined with other mascaras, tends to get that awful flaky feeling
  • Leaning towards a greyish color, not really a true black
  • Innovative brush
Eyeliner:
  • Extremely pigmented
  • Very creamy
  • Glides on very smoothly
  • Wears off rather easily
DO I RECCOMEND THEM?

I absolutely love the definition the mascara gives, so I think it is a decent mascara if that is what you are looking for. The chocolate brown eyeliner is a great liner, the only thing wrong is the wear time. If you use a liner sealer anyways, I say  go for it!
