February Lip Monthly Unboxing

I was super happy with my January Lip Monthly bag (read my review here) so I decided to stay for another month!


I think this month's bag is super cute with the leopard print!



Cosmoholic Gloss

I have never heard of this brand before and unfortunately there is no shade name on the packaging. However, this is a nice brown-nude colour and the lip gloss has a nice MAC vanilla scent to it. I don't like that this gloss is super sticky. The colour payoff is great!




Model Co Lipstick in Truffle

I have had Model Co lipsticks before and I have enjoyed them. This lipstick seems to be a moisturizing lipstick as it has a balm like feel to it! This colour is also a dusty brown-nude which I think is really pretty. It has a very sweet scent to it.



Cargo Eyeshadow in Shanghal

My big issue with Lip Monthly before my January bag was the fact that they claim to be a monthly lip product bag but they were sending other products like haircare. However, I'm making an exception for this product! I have never owned a Cargo eyeshadow so I was super excited to see this in the bag. This eyeshadow looks to be brown with a purple shift to it, which is just beautiful. The eyeshadow seems to have good colour payoff and it isn't powdery.




SUGAR Matte Lip Pencil in 03 Poison Ivy

I have never heard of the brand SUGAR before but I am super excited for this lip product. This is a beautiful berry red colour that seems to be very pigmented. I personally really enjoy matte lip pencil as I find them very easy to use and great for on the go application.



That's everything in my Lip Monthly bag! I'm rating this bag a solid 3.5 out of 4 stars! I really liked everything but this bag lost half a star because of the gloss. I really like the colour but it's way to sticky for me to wear (and not knowing the shade name is annoying).

Do you subscribe to LipMonthly? What did you get in your February bag?

Stay Beautiful,
Sarah

Sephora Favourites: Give Me Some Bold Lip

Another break down and review of a Sephora Favourites kit! This one is a smaller kit that focuses on bold lips. I really love these smaller lip kits, I'm pretty sure I have bought everyone that has come out.

This kit was $34 dollars Canadian.




Tarte Tarteist Lip Paint in YAASS

This is a creamy matte formula in a beautiful lavender colour. I wouldn't say this colour suites me but I'm excited to try it! This is one of the newer formulas Tarte has released.

Bite Beauty Matte Lip Crayon in Aubergine

I love the Bite Beauty Matte Lip Crayons! This lip product is a matte formula but it doesn't feel drying on the lips which makes it comfortable enough to wear for hours and because it is matte, it will last for hours. You also get amazing colour payoff with this lip crayon. I think this colour is beautiful for all seasons as you can sheer it out.

Kat Von D Everlasting Lipstick in Damned

The formula on these Everlasting lipsticks is one of my favourite liquid lipstick formula. This colour of this lipstick is perfect for fall. I personally find it a little too dark but you can easily sheer this formula out to make it easier to wear.

Ciate London Liquid Velvet in Head over Heels

This is a bright, bright magenta liquid lipstick! This lipstick formula new to me so I can't comment on how it wears. But I am excited to test this formula out and this colour is one of my favourites to wear.


Sephora Collection Rouge Cream in 49 Belly-Dancing

This lipstick is a part of Sephora's new Sephora Collection rebrand. This is a beautiful deep wine colour. When swatched it went on very smooth and creamy. There is a ton of colours in this line as well! I'm excited to try more products in this newly formulated Sephora Collection as I think the products are really high quality for the price.



Laura Mercier Velour Lipstick in An Affair

I have always enjoyed the Laura Mercier lipsticks, as I have gotten them in past multibrand kits, however they weren't this kind. This lipstick is full size and is a beautiful plum colour.


Overall, I think this Sephora Favourite set is worth the buy especially if you love bold lips are dark "fall" colours. I think this set is also amazing if you want to try the different brands in this set. Although there is only one full size products in this set, I think still a good buy because how many times do you actually use up a lipstick?

Any Sephora Favourites kits you are going to purchase? Any you want me to review? Let me know in the comments below!

Stay Beautiful,

Sephora Favorites Give Me Some Lip Kit

I was shopping in Sephora the other day and I saw this Sephora Favorites Give Me Some Lip kit. I instantly put it in my basket. This kit retails for 30 dollars Canadian (25 dollars American) and one of these lip products is full size! Here is a review and swatches of the kit.

How cute is this packaging?!


Fresh Sugar Tinted Lip Treatment in Rose

I own one of the Fresh Sugar Lip Treatments already so when I saw this in the kit, I decided to pass it along to my mom (she LOVES this line of lip products). This product is a light tint of pink. It is very moisturizing. I didn't swatch this one because I was passing it along.




Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lip in Lolita

The famous and hard to find Lolita was in this kit, YAAASSS! If you have wanted to try Lolita, this may be the easiest way to try it. I have heard nothing but good things about this lip product line, so I am very excited to try it. However, I thought Lolita was more on the pink side but when I swatched it, it was very brown in colour.

Make Up For Ever Artist Plexi Gloss in 202

Everyone in the Beauty community has been loving these but my first impression of this gloss is not good. This gloss is extremely sticky, so sticky it makes a pop sound when you pull the applicator out of the tube! This gloss did feel comfortable on my lips but it didn't show up very well. This gloss might work great to top lipsticks with.


Marc Jacobs Le Marc lipstick in Je T'aime

This is my first Marc Jacobs beauty product and it's the cutest mini ever! The packaging is adorable and this color is beautiful (the swatch picture does it no justice). This lipstick felt very creamy when swatched and the color payoff was incredible! This lipstick also left a bit of a stain too.


Sephora Collection Rouge Infusion in 19 Peony

I thought this product was going to be more like a lip gloss but it is actually a lip stain. This product has great color payoff! I haven't worn it on my lips yet but I have high hopes for it.


Tarte Amazonian Butter lipstick in Coral Blossom

This is the full size product! I love the Tarte Butter lipsticks because they have a great colour payoff, moisturizing and are very easy to apply. I also love that I don't need to apply a lip liner with these lipsticks. When I first saw this lipstick, I thought it had a bit of glitter or shimmer in it, when applied it looked so natural and you couldn't tell that there was shimmer or anything in it.

Overall, I think this lip kit is perfect to try some hard to find colors ( aka Lolita) and some higher end lips products, like the Marc Jacobs lipstick. This kit was strictly pinks, so I'm hoping Sephora comes out with other lip kits in other shades.

Have you picked this kit up? Any lip product you're excited to try? Let me know in the comments!
