I have a small-ish Sephora sale haul to share with you today. I purchased these products in late December 2022, so that’s why the palettes are holiday themed. Let’s talk about those first.

I don’t own a lot of Too Faced palettes (I think I have one other one that I’ve maybe used once), but I thought these mini holiday themed palettes were adorable. I’ve only worn the You’re So Hot palette so far, but I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality and pigmentation of the shadows, and I love that you get eight shades in such a small palette.

A couple of random bits I picked up in the sale; the Huda Beauty Legit Lashes double-ended mascara (mini) in Legit Blue and KVD Beauty Everlasting lip liner in L.U.V. I’ve had bright blue mascaras in my collection before, and I thought it would be nice to add one again. And I know I like the KVD Beauty lipliners, and this magenta purple colour is super pretty and not the most common lipliner shade to come by.

I picked up this Pat McGrath Labs Dream Lover + Dark Star duo mainly for the mascara. I used up a sample of the Dark Star mascara last year, and it’s probably one of the best mascaras I’ve ever tried, but it’s just so expensive. Picking it up in a set on sale which also comes with a MatteTrance lipstick in Dream Lover was a very good deal.

Lastly, I purchased the Ole Henriksen Seeking Self-Care set, which includes a Strength Trainer Peptide Boost moisturizer, Banana Bright+ eye cream, and Glow2OH Dark Spot Toner; three products that I’ve been curious to try.
