Happy Birthday! Love, Sephora + Marc Jacobs Beauty

July is my Birthday Month! And one of my favorite beauty stores (Sephora) always comes through with the sweetest Birthday gifts! This year, they gifted Beauty Insiders a Marc Jacobs Beauty mini set.

How cute are these Marc Jacobs Beauty mini lipstick and eyeliner? So perfect for throwing in your clutch & on-the-go touch ups.

The highliner gel eye crayon in 'Blacquer' is one of my favorite eyeliners. It's a long lasting, waterproof liner that goes on smooth, just like a gel liner. Blacquer is a twist up liner, with a true black color payoff & dries with a satin finish. It's great for the waterline. Just like most gel liners, you have a few seconds before it completely dries, to smudge it for a more smokey eye look.

The lip crème lipstick in 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang' is rich in color & feels hydrating on the lips. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is described as a baked Rose. According to the Sephora website "it provides 10 hrs of wear". I personally, haven't worn it for 10 hrs but within the 4-5 hours that I had it on, I found it to be pretty long lasting. I found this formula to be pretty full coverage, therefore you only need about 1 swipe to achieve its intense color pay off.

Here is a swatch of what's inside the Marc Jacobs Beauty mini set:

If you're not a Sephora Beauty Insider, I suggest you sign up. It's free, and you don't have to spend any money to redeem your Birthday Gift.
