Small Sephora Haul


This is a small Sephora haul as I only purchased 2 products and the others are samples. I have been into lip products this month and I can't stop buying lippies, especially lip stains.

So when I see Sephora Cream Lip Stain in Marvelous Mauve is back in stock, I knew I had to grab it. It is probably one of the Sephora brand lip stain shades and it is always out of stock. 


It is a true pink mauve shade I love. It has a sweet scent which I don't mind. The application is smooth and it does not dry out my lips.


This is very comparable to the Kat Von D Lolita liquid lipstick(original). The reason why I said original version is it is supposed to be mauve pink shade. The shade I got is from a batch which is more brown-toned and a tad too brown on my lips. I like to mix it with some pink shades to make it less "vampy". 

I also got the Origins United Toner which is a staple toner in my skin care routine. I added that so I could grab the Benefit's new mascara Roller Lash sample.


Benefit has to be one of the cosmetic brands which I love about their packaging. Just the sample sized product, it comes in this very cute and sleek package.



The wand is with very tiny plastic bristles which is designed to grab every tiny lash. I have only tried this mascara a few times. I have straight stubborn Asian lashes which I only wear waterproof version so it could help keep my curls. This formula is a bit wet for my liking so it doesn't hold my curls. But with every new mascara, I like to wait a week or two to really conclude if I like it as the formula is dried out a bit. But the wand is tiny which I like so it could grab my shorter inner lashes.


2 samples I got are Dr. Brandt Needles No more and Fresh Rose Face Mask. I have tried the Fresh rose face mask before and really enjoy it. I haven't tried any products from Dr. Brandt before so excited to try this.

    1. yes, it is the prettiest mauve lip color. I am so glad I finally got it as it is always out of stock(think it is the most popular shade).
