New Makeup at Sephora

There are a ton of new makeup items at Sephora right now. I wanted to share some of them with you. Cruelty free, of course.

New Makeup at Sephora

Too Faced I'll Stop The World & Melt With You Fall 2014 Full Face Collection Kit

Too Faced I’ll Stop The World & Melt With You Fall 2014 Full Face Collection Kit
This is a super cute kit that comes with the Too Faced Natural Eye Shadow Quad, a deluxe Shadow Insurance Anti-Crease Eye Shadow Primer, a full-size Better Than Sex Mascara, a Sweethearts Perfect Flush Powder Blush in Peach Beach, and a deluxe Melted Liquified Long Wear Lipstick in Peony.

Nails Inc London Alexa Fabric Effect

Nails Inc LondonAlexa Fabric Effect
These nail polishes are inpsired by fabric and created by Alexa Chung.

  • Alexa Sequin – a fine particle black base with large particle gold sequins style glitters
  • Alexa Cashmere – a rich matte shade with glass pearls for a subtle sheen, in a mink colour way
  • Alexa Lace – a blend of different sized red particles, perfect over nude
  • Alexa Silk – a smooth as silk black pearlescent shade

Buxom Bar Mascara

Buxom Vanity Lash and Bar Mascaras
Buxom Vanity Lash mascara is designed to work with one of the 7 Buxom Mascara bar brushes. I think the concept is really interesting for a mascara, if you really like the formula.

  • Curl & Contour – angled brush hugs, contours & shapes for voluptuous, head-turning curves
  • Lush & Lifted – one side builds ultra-plush lushness—the other separates & lifts lashes sky-high
  • Strong & Long – sleek, chic brush shape teases lashes to extreme lengths
  • Full & Fabulous – molded ball tips power through lashes for lavish fullness from roots to ends
  • Big & Bushy – super bushy bristles layer on massive volume for majorly big lashes
  • Thick & Defined – molded flexi-bristles & tapered tip for epic thickness and deft defining
  • Itty Bitty – small but mighty detailer discovers & amplifies your littlest lashes

Beauty Blender Micro Mini

Beauty Blender Micro Mini
Are these  not the cutest little things you’ve ever seen? I soo want to try one! They’re supposed to be perfect for concealer or contouring.

Too Faced Cocoa Powder Foundation

Too Faced Cocoa Powder Foundation
This is a really nice smelling powder foundation with a light finish. If there’s a shade match for you, you should check it out. I have Fair, which is unfortunately too dark for me, but there are currently 8 shades available.

Urban Decay Subversion Mascara Primer

Urban Decay Subversion Mascara Primer
I ran out to buy this in store when I found out it was finally available. It’s awesome. Review coming soon.

Kat Von D Lightning Liner

Kat Von D Lightning Liner
I had a royal clusterf*ck trying to get this liner in Hex. I ordered it online and they sent me the wrong shade, Fyfe, twice. Sephora’s customer service the first time around was incredibly rude and unhelpful. The CS rep BLAMED ME for them sending me the wrong product, told me I needed to mail it back ASAP or I would be charged for their mistake. I mailed back the first one, and re-ordered the Hex liner. They sent me the wrong liner AGAIN, so I called up and bitched at them because as a VIB Rouge, I do feel like they shouldn’t make that same mistake twice. This time they told me to keep Fyfe, and not order online but go pick it up in store. I was deeply disappointed in Sephora’s customer service because I prefer to order online rather than hunt down a product in store. Eventually I did pick up Hex in store. It’s pretty enough I may pick up Poe.

Smashbox Cherry Smoke Photo Op Eye Shadow Palette

Smashbox Cherry Smoke Photo Op Eye Shadow Palette
Inspired by deep cherry and bordeaux shades from the runway, this palette is meant to be worn with deep red lip shades.

Ardency Inn Modster Southampton Lip Kit

Ardency Inn Modster Southampton Lip Kit
The lipstick is Forward, a pink with blue and violet undertones. Monster lip balm and primer is tinted slightly green to neutalize lip color and prep it for a lipstick. I like the Ardency Inn formula and I own Black is Blue in it.

Bite Beauty Agave Lip Mask Champagne

Bite Beauty Agave Lip Mask Champagne
I picked up the Champagne (rose gold pearl) lip mask, even though I hated the packaging on the original. So far the new one is holding up without breaking, but it doesn’t feel quite as moisturizing as the original.

Tarte LE Amazonian Clay Dual Liner

Tarte LE Amazonian Clay Dual Liner
I can’t help but think this dual liner is clever, because most people reach for black and brown over other shades.

Too Faced Bulletproof 24 Hour Liners

Too Faced Bulletproof 24 Hour Liners
I’ve picked up 4 shades so far – White Lie (matte white), Get Lucky (metallic sea green), Purple Rain (purple shimmer) and Mink (metallic bronze). I’ve worn the colors for 12 hours without them smudging or budging (on Too Faced Shadow Insurance primer of course), so I’m a fan. They also have a metallic silver, matte black, black with shimmer, and bronzey brown. It’s recommended for smoky eyed looks, but you can also use it as a shadow base or liner.

Bite Beauty Crème Lip Crayons

Bite Beauty Crème Lip Crayons
I’m in love with the look of these matte creme lip crayons! I want several of the new shades. Framboise (vibrant pink purple), Aubergine (eggplant), and Amaretto (peachy nude), are the shades calling out to me. Do want!

BECCA Lowlight Sculpting Perfector Review, Swatches, Demo

BECCA Lowlight Sculpting Perfector
I recently reviewed this and it is so easy to use! You can contour effortlessly with this product.

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Unknown Pleasures Nail Polish

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Fall 2014 Unknown Pleasures Nail Polish
6 gorgeous shades makeup the Fall Unknown Pleasures collection for OCC. Technopagan, Pagan, and Distortion are standouts, in my opinion. I’ll be reviewing Technopagan, Pagan and Distortion soon. (vegan)

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Fall 2014 Unknown Pleasures Lip Tars

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Fall 2014 Unknown Pleasures Lip Tars
There are 6 lovely shades for the lip tars for Fall 2014, too. My favorites are Technopagan, Pagan and Vain. I bought Pagan and will probably pick up Technopagan, and maybe Vain. (vegan)

  2. So many lovely goodies! I recently picked up the Ardency Inn Modster Southhampton Kit and LOVE it. I wanted to try some brands that I hadn’t tried before and was drawn to Ardency Inn. Got some of the eye products as well. The lip primer is my favourite. 🙂 review will probably be up next week 🙂 I heard that those new beauty blenders minis are uber tiny, lol, like the size of a big toe toe nail. Lol.

  8. So many wonderful things!! My eyes are swirling with so much eye candy, lol! XD I need Technopagan and Maneater Lip Tars from OCC’s fall line. I also want to pick up OCC’s Sebastian pencil – it looks like it could be a major multi-tasker. Those Bite Beauty Lip Crayons!!! The Kat Von D liners!!! Mini Beauty Blenders omg the cuteness and the million ways to use them!!! All the Too Faced goodies!!! Wow. There is so much awesome here!!! 😀

    I am a bit heartbroken to hear that the Too Faced Cocoa Powder Foundation in Fair was too dark for you which means it’s too dark for me. 🙁 On the bright side that means more money for the dozens of other items on this list that I am in love with! I am so sorry to hear of your awful experience with Sephora CS. I hate when customers are treated poorly; so wrong and sad.

    I am super excited for your Subversion review!!! I haven’t found a primer that works well for me yet. I’m also on the market for a white mascara (considering the Ben Nye one) so if Subversion creates a white mascara effect that would be a two in one product for me! 😀 Thank you so much for this post with all the fall goodies in one place!

    1. So sorry that Fair will be too dark for you too.

      Subversion does turn my lash tips white, but not full on white. e.l.f. and Cargo also have white primers.

  10. OMG, too many products to try again!!! I had a recent incident w/ Sephora too. It’s irritating when they can’t handle it well esp when we’re on VIB Rouge list

  11. Aaacckkk ok I just picked up 2 of the KVD liners and…how the heck do you put them together?? LOL

  13. Is Smashbox cruelty-free again? I stopped buying when I heard they’d lost their status, but if they are once again CF, I’d definitely take a look at their new stuff!

      1. Thank you for the information. I really appreciate your transparency and dedication. Just wanted to let you know that you’re one of my favorite CF blogs and I always recommend your blog when someone needs a resource on CF brands!

  15. The Too Faced kit is awesome. I think the eye shadow is the same one from last holiday season and I love it.

  16. I was just looking at that Too Faced bundle today. I wish it came with something other than Peony. I just don’t think that color is going to look good on me. There are some cool picks in this list!

  17. omg, is Smashbox cruelty free now? I had heard of them going CF but for some reason I had thought that most people who only buy CF weren’t fully considering them CF yet, but I can’t seem to recall why. Can you elaborate? This is exciting!

  20. I’m sorry to hear the Too Faced cocoa powder foundation Fair was too dark for you. That means it will be too dark for me, too. I was looking forward to it, since I like the bronzer so much. Here’s hoping they come out with a “very fair” or “Casper” for us pale girls.

  23. damn damn damn, I ordered tf cocoa foundation in fair on ebay, its gonna be too dark for me as well :((

      1. actually I don’t like to look totally white so its okay on me, for now, I hope it won’t be much worse during winter 🙂 I’d say fair does suit something like n15 in mac

          1. the smell is amazing, I know there are paler persons than me (nw10-15, more 15 during summer) so they should make a very fair shade or such, I didn’t find some special flaws, seems an ok product! (I got mine for $25 shipped to canada on ebay)

  25. I love that Smashbox palette! I’m glad you mentioned that it pairs with deep red lips, which is pretty much what I wear in the fall and winter. I hate the trouble you went through to get that KVD Liner. I feel that Sephora’s CS has been a bit lacking. I finally went to a store last weekend to try the new KVD lipsticks ( I was so heartbroken, I did not like the new formula 🙁 ) Anyway, I couldn’t seem to track one of the employees down to re-stock the the make-up remover/sanitizing station and when I did they were like, I don’t do that. I was also trying to see if they carried the Too Faced Cocoa powder foundation and they looked so confused. I was annoyed. :o/
    Those OCC lip tars look so pretty and I love that nail polish shade, I think I’ll be purchasing those glitter shades. I finally got some decent stiletto nails and I think those shades will look awesome.

      1. I’m going to purchase the KVD everlasting liquid lipsticks in Bauhaus, Vampira and Outlaw. I got to swatch those and I love the matte formula, I also feel that the made these slightly bigger than the old tubes. Sucks about the lipsticks though, I REALLY wanted to love them. I have two of her metallic ones ( Foiled Love) in Oh My Goth and Forever and Never and those went on effortlessly and I like how they feel on my lips.

        1. The liquid lipsticks have a nice formula. The old and new tubes are the same amount of product, just the tube looks larger.

  26. Oooh those Bite pencils! I’m so bummed that Sephora CS treated you like that. How rude!

    1. The first person I spoke to, I told her ‘It’s not my fault you mailed me the wrong item.’ And she said ‘well you have to mail it back or we’re going to charge you.’ And I said ‘I think that’s actually against the law, but I’ll mail it back.’ Which is why, when they sent the wrong product a second time I was really upset. Because it was not my fault. And then they told me ‘we’ll call you back as soon as we have this sorted out.’ and they never called back. I was sooo frustrated. When I finally went shopping with Eugenia and we went to Sephora I bought it in store, but if I hadn’t been going out with Eugenia, I probably never would have gotten it.So ridiculous!

  29. eeeekkkkk so much goodness on this post. I am obsessed with the new BITE beauty mask, its much easier now that they changed the packaging to use it. I want that Too Face kit, those Nails Inc nail polish shades and the Becca Sculptor. So much goodness all on one post. eekk!!

  30. Ack, I want everything! Especially the TF kit, so cute!! I thought I was the only one that hated the metal packaging on Bite’s agave lip mask? I had it for a week, and it started oozing out the sides and cracked all over the tube. A huge waste of money and I never heard back from customer service. Didn’t leave me with a good feeling. Much like you and Sephora! That is really terrible. I hope they see your post and are aware of what’s going on. 🙁

  31. OMG, I am trying to contain myself because I am on an austerity jag. The Too Faced metallic bronze 24 hr liner sounds like something I will break down and buy eventually!

  32. I am loving the Smashbox Photo Op Cherry Smoke Palette. I got an email about this a while ago. I am trying to contain myself!!! 😀 It is very hard though! 😀

      1. Here are your swatches Phyrra!

        Soooooo pretty!!! Go ahead Phyrra!!! I triple dog dare ya!!! ???. Do it for me!!! HA HA
