Review: Sephora Favorites "Paint It Pink".

Hi errbadeh!

At the end of my previous blog, which was about Sephora Favorites Give Me Some Nude Lip set, I mentioned that I would be talking about another Sephora Favorites. Today is the day! Featured this time around will be Sephora Favorites: Paint It Pink. I bought it for BND63 (= BND70-10%).

This set contains eight products from eight different brands. But unfortunately, the nail polish from Deborah Lippmann had to be discarded, probably due to ingredients that are prohibited in Brunei.

Below pictures show what are included in this set :D

Product packaging section

↑ The contents.


Product details and swatch section

↑ A mini beautyblender® (8.5g / 0.03oz).


↑ Tarte Cosmetics.

↬ Tarte Cosmetics Amazonian clay 12-hour blush in shade Blissful (1.5g / 0.05oz).
↬ A light pinkish-peach shade


↑ Urban Decay.

↬ UD single eyeshadow in shade Scratch (1.5g / 0.05oz).
↬ A slightly shimmery rose gold shade
↬ I think this shade is suitable for daily wear as a pop of colour on the eyes! Or if you'd like a             slightly more dramatic look, apply a brown eyeshadow on the outer corner of your eyes and blend the   two shades together.

↑ Becca Cosmetics.

↬ Becca pressed shimmering skin perfector in shade Rose Gold (2.4g / 0.085oz).
↬ A light peach shade with a hint of rose gold shimmer. 
↬ You can use this, again, as a slight pop of colour on your eyelids or as a highlighter on top of your cheekbones.

↑ Benefit Cosmetics.

↬ Benefit Roller Lash mascara (3g / 1oz).

↑ Laura Mercier.

↬ Laura Mercier velour lovers lip colour in shade French Kiss (3.6g / 0.12oz).
↬ A bright pink shade.


↑ Make Up For Ever.

↬ MUFE artist plexi-gloss in #202 (3ml / 0.10 fl oz).
↬ Light peach gloss with no shimmer.



The products in this set lean more towards pink and peach shades and hence, are more wearable and suitable for day looks. With a good day-time foundation, a light makeup look can certainly be created with this Paint It Pink set!

If you are interested in getting this Sephora Favourites "Paint It Pink" set, do contact TwixBN or check out their IG page to see if they have this particular set instock or if it'll be in their upcoming shipments!

Review: Sephora Favorites "Give Me Some Nude Lip".

Happy Monday errbadeh!

I don't know about you, but I love me some makeup sets or travelling sets! Sephora is known to pick some good products and package them into one set. But of course, the products in the sets do not come in their full sizes, only deluxe or travelling sizes.

I manage to get my hands on the Sephora Favorites: Give Me Some Nude Lip set! I got it for BND50 (= BND56-10%) from TwixBN (Instagram link here!). This particular set includes five different types of lip products from five famous brands: Tarte, NARS, Laura Mercier, NUDESTIX and Marc Jacobs.

Below pictures show all the products included in this set.

↑ (L-R) NARS Cosmetics, Marc Jacobs Beauty, NUDESTIX, Tarte, Laura Mercier.

Product details and swatch section

↑ NARS Cosmetics.

↬ NARS Cosmetics lipstick in shade Dolce Vita (3.4g / 0.12oz).
↬ A very sheer, light peach shade and applies quite streakily. 
         I initially thought that the lipstick would be more pigmented by looking at the tube but it's                   rather deceiving, this one. This has definitely thought me that the product may not actually                   applies like how it looks from the tube.


↑ Marc Jacobs Beauty.

↬ Marc Jacobs Beauty (P)outliner longwear lip pencil in shade Prim(rose) (0.3g / 0.01oz).
↬ A dark, mauve shade.
↬ Good lasting power as I had to wipe the swatch off with a makeup remover.


↑ NUDESTIX.

↬ NUDESTIX lip + cheek pencil in shade Whisper (2.4g / 0.088oz).
↬ A creamy, pigmented pink shade.
↬ As the name suggests, this product can be used as both a lip and a cheek product. You can apply it normally as you would a lipstick, or apply a little on your ring finger first then dab lightly onto your cheeks as a blusher.


↑ Tarte.

↬ Tarte tarteist™ lip paint in shade Namaste (3ml / 0.10 fl oz).
↬ A rosey-pink shade.
↬ Swatch above is only one swipe!


↑ Laura Mercier.

↬ Laura Mercier crème smooth lip colour in shade Milky Way (2g / 0.07oz).
↬ A light brown shade.
↬ It's glossy and definitely more pigmented than the above NARS Cosmetics lipstick!

From all the five products, my favorite one has definitely got to be Tarte's tarteist™! Overall, I think this set is really great as the shades are very wearable and can be used during the day. Also, the products are not full-sized so you might actually be able to commit to and finish a product.

I guess this is it for now. I hope this blog post has helped you in a way or another. If you are interested in getting this Sephora Favorites "Give Me Some Nude Lip" set, do contact TwixBN or check out their IG page to see if they have this particular set instock or if it'll be in their upcoming shipments!

I'll be blogging about another Sephora Favorites soon, so watch this space! Have a great week ahead of you! :D
