Sephora VIB Wishlist

Hey my loves. As most of us know the Sephora VIB/VIB Rouge 20% off sale has begun. This is the best time to get the things we have been eyeing, holiday gift sets and/or need to restock! I made some suggestions in my most recent video of my fave products from Sephora, but also wanted to share things that are on my wishlist that I may pick up.

1. Makeup Forever Studio Case

I have been eyeing the new makeup forever eyeshadow formula. I heard so many great things and seen so many swatches. I have never tried the previous formula, but what better way to test out the makeup forever shadows than in  a holiday kit!

2. Marc Jacobs The Sky-Liner Seven Piece Petite Highliner Collection

 I recently was introduced to the Marc Jacobs brand. Though it was just a lip gel and gloss I tried, I was impressed. I wanted to try more, so when I saw this holiday gift set I was excited. I heard these liners were creamy and long wearing on the waterline. I can't wait!

3. Bite Beauty Best Bite Remix

Now this a product that I love and recommended in my video. I purchased the Bite Beauty Lip Crayon holiday kit last year, because they are pigmented, creamy and moisturizing; I was thinking why not get this year lip crayon kit. Look out for a comparison video soon to come. 

4. Nars Kabuki Ita Brush

Now this brush is a cult favorite! I've seen it everywhere and heard nothing but good things about it for contouring. Now, contouring is a difficult thing to do right, so when I saw Jaclyn Hill's how to contour video using this brush I was HOOKED!

5. Givenchy Palette Extravaganza Lip and Eye

The packaging is gorgeous, the colors are beautiful and it's a luxury item. I have hesitated about this palette for months, but I can justify buying this $66 palette with a 20% discount. I just hope I don't get too hooked, my pockets will cry!

6. Sephora Favorites Beauty Unmasked 

Every holiday season release releases they're "favorites" holiday kits. This year I noticed they had a mask favorites kit, and anyone who knows me knows I love a good mask! This kit already contains a mask that I love "boscia"and have back ups of, but I want this kit because of the Glam Glow and the Peter Thomas Roth. This year that's all I have been hearing about and what a way to get acquainted!

Those are my top wishlist picks! Of course there are more that I can add, but I would be here typing forever...lol! If you would like to see my recommendations, you can head over to my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/BeautyandtheBrush86 .

2014 MAC Discontinued Products

Hey guys, I know it can be heartbreaking when your favorite products become discontinued.  In my case I fell in love with a product as it was being discontinued. There are many reasons why some products are discontinued: a similar product has been developed with better performance, ingredient discontinued by supplier with no suitable alternate, and customer purchasing patterns. Since I did fall in love with a couple of products on the 2014 list, I decided to make a blog post to inform you guys of the other items that will be gone soon and forever. Some products that is on the list can still be found on the MAC website, counters, and/or store, Macys, Dillards, and Nordstrom. So DON'T FRET and DON'T GIVE UP, happy shopping/finding!
