A Birthday Reward Worth while from Sephora!

This year Sephora in my opinion stepped up their game with Birthday gifts. When you are a VIB Rouge like myself you look forward to the extra goodies we get with Sephora for spending so much money. Just as a reminder to qualify for Rouge you have to spend 1k at Sephora in a year, ridiculous right? I do buy things for my pro kit from Sephora which is primarily why I spend so much money there. To be honest until recently Sephora rewards have not been that great, but this year the Birthday gift was amazing!

I seriously couldn’t believe that NARS was going to be included in our Birthday gift this year. Yes, these are not full size but they still are nice in size. Plus, it gives people like me who have not tried the NARS lip pencils a chance to see if they are worth it before sinking money into one. I actually do not own many red shades so this was something I was looking forward to getting. Are these not beautiful?
The names of NARS products are sometimes rather hard to say, don’t believe me then just look at those names! I think the names are so unique and inventive!

I have tried all of the products in this kit. So far I am super impressed with the lip pencils, but the liner is less impressive. This black liner is one that is super hyped up. Yes it is pigmented, but also I find it does not stay in my waterline. I recently found an eyeliner half this price at the drugstore that stays in my waterline. Maybe I am a bit harsh on this because of finding one so much better and cheaper. Regardless, this is still a nice liner and great addition to my collection.
