Sephora Play! & Lip Monthly Try-On (February 2018)

 Sephora Play! & Lip Monthly Try-On (February 2018)




Before spoiling any products you can check out my unboxing videos I have on both of these monthly subscription right here: 

Play! By Sephora (February 2018) Unboxing

Lip Monthly (February 2018) Unboxing 

(be sure to like and subscribe to my channel to see future unboxings!) 

Disclaimer: I used as many products from these subscriptions the I could get into this look. If you want to see every product I received in these subscriptions and their total box/bag value check out the videos above! 


 Products Used in this Look:


Farsali Unicorn Essence 
Wet n Wild Photo Focus Foundation (nude ivory)
Urban Decay Naked Skin Concealer (fair neutral)
Coty Airspun Setting Powder (translucent) 
Ciate Bamboo Bronzer (palm island)
Jelly Pong Pong Cosmetics Play Stain $13 (Lip Monthly) This product blew me away! I mentioned in my unboxing video that I wasn't a fan of lip & cheek stains, but this formula is great! It looks glossy on my lips, but gives my cheeks the perfect natural blush tint! It blended out well. I used my finger to apply it, but softened it up with my beauty sponge.

XO Beauty Highlighting Powder (aurora)
Face Brushes: 
L'oreal Infallible Beauty Sponge (concealer & powder) 
Morphe E6 (foundation)
It! Cosmetics Chic Powder (powder)
XO Beauty Vegan Bronzer (bronzer)
my finger & sponge (blush stain)
XO Beauty Vegan Shimmer Tulip (highlight)
Makeup Revolution #SELFIE Eyeshadow Palette 
I used the very bottom shade (How Many Likes?) as a base all over my eyes. Then I took the third shade (#Trashy) up which is a nice brown shade for the transition, but also for adding more depth into the eye look. I used the second shade (#Club) up to highlight the very inner corner and brow bone with.

Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Eye Colour (Rosegold) $29 for full size (Sephora Play!) 
I used this all over the lid and just added more of the brown shade from the palette to my creases and outer corners.
This product is so pretty when swatched, but I had a hard time building the shade up on my lids.  I'm not a huge fan of creamy eye products like this for that reason. I may try this out on my face for an actual highlight, but so far I'm not loving this product yet.

Maybelline Lash Sensational Full Fan Effect Mascara 
Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer (taupe)

Eye Brushes:
It! Cosmetics Chic Crease (crease and base shades)
XO Beauty Vegan Eyeshadow (highlight) 
Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment (Rosé) $24 for full size (Sephora Play!) 
This is such a nice lip balm. I expected more of an exfoliator lip product with the word "sugar" for some reason, but this is just a lip balm treatment. So far I like it though!

Mac Fix +

Dirty Little Secret Satin Lipstick (sugar daddy) $10 (Lip Monthly) 
This is a really fun color for spring and summer! This does apply a little sheer, but can be built up. It wore like an average cream lipstick and was just about off my lips after a few hours, so touch ups are a must with this product. I love the sweet fruity scent and how it made my lips look glossy without wearing a gloss!

Chloé Eau de Parfum $28-$180 depending on size (Sephora Play! Perfume sample)
I really enjoy this scent! It's a womanly scent, but has a little extra spice that makes it perfect for a date night scent! 
Farmacy Green Clean Makeup Meltaway Cleansing Balm $34 for full size (Sephora Play!) 
I've been using this balm to take my makeup off every night and I have really loved it! My makeup comes off so fast with it! This is an oil balm, but washes right off leaving my skin non-oily. I do wash my face well with my cleanser right afterwards, but this has cut my skincare routine at night down to half the time! I want the full size!

Belif Moisturizing Eye Bomb $48 for full size (Sephora Play!) 
I've been trying this out as my nightly eye cream since receiving it. It takes me a few week of trying skincare out to really be able to tell if I think it's a product I have to include in my routine, but so far I'm loving it! It's a thicker cream that sinks right into the skin as you rub it in making my under eyes feel moisturized and amazing. 


Finished Look: 







Play! by Sephora is a $10 (+tax) beauty subscription through Sephora. You get 4-5 items along with a perfume sample. Everything is exclusive sample sizes of products that you can purchase at Sephora. The samples usually aren't too bad in size. They at least have enough product for you to try it, see if you like it, and decide if it is worth buying the full-size. Totally worth the $10 in my opinion! If you are interested in your own Sephora Play! box: https://www.sephora.com/play?searchTerm=play


Lip Monthly is a $12.95 subscription dedicated to lip products! You get 3-4 products that are mainly lip products, but sometimes one item will be a non-lip product. For the most part these are full-sized. This is a great way to build your lip collection and also a way to discover more indie, vegan, and non-cruelty brands!

Tower 28 Beauty | Makeup

 To the brand that has opened my eyes to a creative outlet while thinking of my skin all the time. Tower 28 Beauty has proved to me that you can have fun with makeup while taking your skin into consideration the entire time. While it's still fun to dip into all my other makeup I have found so much joy in my lightweight makeup ways. The shift happened after trying more cream products and Tower 28 has been one of them. I eyed the beauty of this brand for a while and then took the plunge with their cream bronzer, Bronzino in the shade Sun Coast (the lightest to go with my fair complexion), Beach Please Balm Blush in the shade Power Hour , and a couple of their ShineOn Lip Jellies (Almond & Cashew) .  Their creams are balms so you get a full shine to your look. They not only make your skin look glossy and healthy but also vibrant with the pigment. The blushes really pack a punch in pigment and can be worn as a flush of color or built-up. The bronzer is a little less pigmented th

Beauty Tuesday

For my first " Beauty Tuesday", I thought I would start it off with my May Ipsy bag. If you're not familiar with Ipsy, it's a monthly subscription bag with 4-5 full and/or sample size beauty products. This June marks two years that I've received a bag. Even though some bags are hit or miss, I've continued to be subscribed so I can try out new items. I feel like Ipsy has really upped their game this year and I've loved every bag I've gotten. I'll be sharing my bag with you every month with my own personal review of the bag itself, and each product in it. I'll also blog about how certain makeup wears, feels, and my own opinion of the product. The same for skincare products, and how they work with my skin type.  I hope you enjoy my May 2017 Glam Bag (If you're interested in subscribing to Ipsy's monthly Glam Bag, I'll post the link down below). I'm more into Ipsy for the actual products and not the bags, but I'll admit the ba

Alamar Cosmetics Spanglish | Makeup

I've been loving Alamar since it started and I love to see how far they have come. It's an indie brand I will always recommend so to then get their products in Boxycharm or Boxy Pop Up sales its a win win! That's how I got my Spanglish palette . You can already see this is an Ally palette by the purples! It's a gorgeous one with buttery mattes and stunning metallics. I also appreciate the subtle browns while also having the pops of color too. I found the color story pretty, but also odd. It's not one you see a lot but it does work. I have also found myself creating unique shades by mixing shades together. It's definitely a cute summer moment that you won't be disappointed with.  Swatches left to right: Pero Like, Eres Un Show, Tiene Swing, Guao, Ay Que Cute, Jajaja, Muy Excited, & Ponte Hyper.  Did you miss these blogs?  Lizzie McGuire x ColourPop | Makeup KVD Beauty Edge of Reality | Makeup Beautbean x Shroud It's Freakin' Bats | Makeup I als
