Massive SEPHORA Haul: Skincare, Hair, Makeup
Rouge SEPHORA Haul + Product Reviews
The $$$ damage is done. My wallet is empty, and my makeup bag is bursting at the seams. This is my first official Sephora haul of 2021 on CNP and it is huge. So get comfy and relax and let’s chat about skincare, hair, and makeup.
Let’s proceed with a Sephora and chill session shall we
LIVING PROOF – Shampoo & Conditioner
$28 for each | 👍 I’m a bit turned off by the price. I will not purchase these again in the future. An 8oz container for $28, and I have long hair, never again. I’m not sure the price point is valid. That being said, it was an ok experience.
The shampoo made my hair feel stripped, and it was hard to run my fingers through my hair as I was shampooing, it didn’t lather well and I needed a lot of product for my hair. The conditioner was a pleasant experience. I liked the way my hair looked after, there was less frizz and it seemed more manageable. They both have a subtle citrus scent.
There is a lot of hype about this brand on Sephora. It has a 4 star rating with over a 1,000 reviews, and 38.1k loves on Sephora. There are $12 mini sizes available for these products, and I recommend to purchase those before you invest in the full size product, just to make sure you like it.
Pat McGrath LABS – Sublime Perfection Blurring Under-Eye Setting Powder
$30 | 😒 This is an under-eye setting powder. For $30 this is a very small product, and I’m not impressed with the packaging/container at all, looks cheap. I purchased this because I wanted to brighten my under eyes and maybe benefit from some blurring effects. I did not notice a difference when I used this. I do not know if I really need to use a lot of this? But I don’t like to cake on my makeup or wear a lot of powder. So far…pretty disappointed with this purchase.
FENTY. BOBBI BROWN. FRESH
$19 | 😍 FENTY Glow Gloss Bomb – Girl Yes!!! This Fenty Gloss Bomb is the bomb. I have Glow and Fu$$y from this line. I didn’t want to like these because I don’t really like celebrity skincare, fragrance or makeup. But I like these lip glosses, they are not too tacky or sticky. They leave me with a gorgeous shine on my lips. It is a great gloss formula. They accentuate my lips and I swear my lips look so super plump when I use these. These glosses are perfect on their own and also look amazing layered. The shimmer is subtle. The packaging/container is sleek and elegant. The smell is sweet and divine. This is a luxurious, long wearing gloss that is very flattering and moisturizing.
Massive SEPHORA Haul
$24 | 👍 FRESH Rose Petal-Soft Deep Hydration Lip Balm – This is a nice lip balm. I’ve been using this every morning after I brush my teeth and in the evenings. It smells just like a fresh bouquet of roses. If your lips are severely chapped, then I don’t think this balm is for you, this is not for extreme dry lips. It’s a nice, lightweight moisturizing balm. I don’t regret this purchase, but I’ll never purchase this again, there’s just too many balm options on the beauty market that I’d like to try. I do like this balm much more than the Lineage lip sleeping mask. Read more lip balm content here
$29 | 👍 BOBBI BROWN After Party Lip Gloss – This is a deep wine berry shade. It has a subtle, pleasant scent. It’s buildable – it applies almost sheer at first, but layer after layer, the shade gets darker. I plan to use this with my berry naughty lipliner from Charlotte Tilbury. This is a nice gloss, there’s no shimmer, and it’s moisturizing. I appreciate that it’s not too sticky or gummy. It reminds me of a lip stain, like I’ve been sucking on a berry popsicle kind of tint. I don’t regret this purchase. I’m very pleased with this lip gloss.
MARC JACOBS. CHARLOTTE TILBURY
$22 | 👍 Charlotte Tilbury, Berry Naughty – I really like these CT lip liners. They go on smooth and they have a velvety texture. I bought this Berry Naughty to go with my Bobbi Brown lip gloss. I’m pleased with this purchase.
$22 | 👍 Charlotte Tilbury, Foxy Brown – This is a dark brown lip liner, gotta be honest, it is a lot darker than I thought it would be…so…I gotta still figure out how I’m going to use it. But I do like these CT lipliners so I don’t regret this purchase.
$26 | 👍 Marc Jacobs Gel Eyeliner, Grapevine – This is a lovely, matte dark purple eyeliner. I use this on my water line, and it glides on smoothly. I can’t wait to buy different colors. It is smudge-proof, doesn’t flake or transfer. It is pigmented, and lasts a long time. I like the beautiful color payoff I get with this MJ eyeliner.

OTHERLAND. STILA. MOON JUICE. SHISEIDO.
$36 | 😒 Otherland, Black Velvet Jasmine Candle – I guess this is a descent price for the candle, because candles can be crazy expensive nowadays. Aesthetically I like the black container with the flowers on the front, it’s pretty for fall and winter. Unfortunately I will never purchase candles from this brand again. It has a very small throw. Also, it burned down quick, meh…I’ve enjoyed better candles. I wasn’t really impressed with the scent either, didn’t knock my socks off. This candle is all looks and underwhelming. Will never purchase from this brand again.
$24 | 😍 Stila, Wanderlust Liquid Eye Shadow – This is a divine, long-wearing liquid glitter eyeshadow. So pretty. This looks so gorgeous on its own or on top of other shadows. It is highly pigmented and sparkly, so magical. This liquid eye shadow stays put all day and there is no glitter fall out all over my cheeks. Wanderlust is an iridescent pink and gold color for a fabulous statement eye shadow.
SEPHORA Haul
$49 | 👎👎👎 Moon Juice, SuperYou – Oh my gosh, this was a waste of money! Recently I quit coffee, I love coffee, but I have a bit of a sluggish thyroid and my doctor suggested I give it up, fml. So ever since I’ve been looking for something that can give me a bit of a kick in the mornings, this ain’t it.
I gave Moon Juice a chance because a YouTuber that I watch claimed that it was her go-to supplements in the morning. I didn’t notice a damn thing when I took these, nothing. There were so many positive reviews on Sephora’s website, so I thought It would be a safe purchase.
However, once I realized these supplements did nothing for me I went back and actually read the Sephora reviews, the majority of the reviewers had received their moon juice bottle as a gift. Yeah, all these raving Sephora reviews came from people that didn’t have to spend their own money, they got the product for free.
Ugh, this was a disappointing af purchase from Sephora. Wanna enjoy more content about disappointing purchases from Sephora? Click here
$12 | 😍 Shiseido Facial Cotton – These cotton facial pads are luxurious and soft and thick and durable. I have been using these for years. On the Sephora website they have over 2k reviews and 109.0k loves. It is a very popular product, and they are totally worth the hype. These are gentle, soft as a cloud, great for the eye area. This doesn’t leave cotton residue on your skin and they never fall apart. I will always purchase these again in the future.
Charlotte Tilbury. Erno Laszlo. Peace Out. Moroccanoil
$20 | 👍 Charlotte Tilbury Mini Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray – This is a good setting spray. My current favorite setting spray is the Farsáli 24K Skin Mist, so when I buy another setting spray again it will be the Farsáli one. This Airbrush Flawless setting spray is good, it set my makeup just fine, it was a little too matte for my taste tho. My skin felt too matte and dry when I used this setting spray, and that is why I’ll never purchase it again. But it might work different for you. I’m glad I only purchased the mini version instead of buying the full size one. So, if you are considering this setting spray, consider purchasing the mini size one first.
$38 | 👍 Erno Laszlo, Eye Serum Mask – This is a nice eye mask. Nothing too impressive. My holy grail eye masks are the SHISEIDO Benefiance WrinkleResist24 Pure Retinol Express, enjoy more content about them here
Gotta be honest I don’t think I will ever purchase these again, they are a bit pricey and I don’t feel like this product gave me the results I desired. They’re fine. Not bad. And not great. I’ve already got eye masks that I enjoy, so I’d rather just repurchase my go-to eye masks.
SEPHORA Beauty Haul
$44 | 😍😍😍 Moroccanoil, Oil-infused Hair Treatment – I love this hair oil, been using it since college. It smells beautiful and it tames my flyaways. I use this after I wash my hair, and while it is still damp. It leaves my hair silky smooth and manageable. Less is more, you only need about a nickel size amount, that’s about how much I use and I have long hair. There is a fragrance to it, so skip it if you can’t tolerate any fragrance in your hair products. This is a top notch hair product and I’m so glad I purchased it.
$19 | Peace Out, Salicylic Acid Acne Healing Dots – I have not tried these acnes healing patches. Luckily I don’t suffer from too much acne. The only time I get a pimple is when I eat a lot of junk food or greasy fast food or when I eat too much dairy. As long as I keep a pretty clean diet I don’t really have to worry about acne. I wanna keep these on hand, so if I do get a pimple I’m gonna try these asap.
Nécessaire
$45 | 😍😍😍 Nécessaire, The Body Serum – I did not want to like this product…but I do. It’s so extra but so necessary. I really enjoy using this serum. As soon as I get out of the shower I use this all over my décolletage and my shoulders and my arms and hands. Then I quickly apply a moisturizer on top. I’m not crazy about the price, but I’ve been using this consistently for over two months and I haven’t finished it yet. You get a lot of product for the price. This product contains hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, ceramides, and B5. My skin absorbs this serum fast, it’s silky, luxurious, and fragrance-free. I will purchase this again when I run out.
$25 | 👍 Nécessaire, The Body Lotion – This is a nice body lotion. I’ve been using this as soon as I get out of the shower and immediately after the body serum. I’m not too sure I will ever buy this lotion again. I love that it is fragrance-free, good size product, it contains great anti-aging ingredients, and it feels luxurious. But I feel I can find a good alternative at the drug store for a better price. Wanna enjoy more Drugstore beauty content? Click here
Nécessaire Body Products
$20 | 👍 Nécessaire, The Hand Cream – This is $20 hand lotion, but it is a good portion, there’s a lot of product for the price. With that being said, I’m pretty sure I will never purchase this again in the future. There are just so many great hand creams on the market, you know, especially ones that have a better price point. Again, this product contains great ingredients, it’s fragrance-free, and it does feel nice. It would have been nice if it contained sunscreen, then I would probably have purchased it again…maybe.
$25 | 👍😍👍 Nécessaire, The Body Wash – Yo, I’m kinda on the fence on this one. I love it but I could live without it. I’ve purchased the fragrance-free version twice already and I purchased a eucalyptus one for my husband. My husband liked it, didn’t love it, but he liked it just fine. I like the fragrance-free one – it contains niacinamide, B3, vitamin E, marula oil, and green tea. It is a gentle, fragrance-free body wash that foams up nicely. I wish the bottle was bigger, $25 for a body wash is a bit pricey, and the product size feels too small. I do like the way my skin feels when I use this body wash. This is a great product for sensitive skin. It has a nice, thick texture that lathers nicely.
Buyer beware, if you are on a budget, skip this product, there are far more affordable body washes at your local drugstore.

Dior BACKSTAGE Face & Body Glow
$38 | 😍 This is a face & body liquid highlighter with a very thin consistency. It quickly sinks into skin my skin and it blends out nicely. This Dior product leaves me with a natural, shimmery glow. The shimmer is subtle, it’s not an in your face glitter. There is a slight fragrance, it would be nice to have a fragrance-free option tho. This highlighter can be applied alone or it can be added to a moisturizer/foundation. A small, sleek, fuss-free bottle (plastic not glass) that can conveniently be kept in a travel bag or small purse without worrying that it will break. I’m glad I purchased this, I like it a lot so far.
TOM FORD Fiber Brow Gel
$54 | 😍😍😍 This is a Youtuber recommendation purchase. I bought a $54 brow gel and I’m not mad about it. Super bougie but super necessary. I bought the chestnut shade and it matches my brows nicely. It’s so easy to use and I like the way I look when I use this product. I don’t have the patience to pencil in my brows or do anything too complicated. This just works so well for me and I don’t regret this purchase.
The INKEY List
$10 | Oat Cleansing Balm – I have not tried this product yet. I’m currently still using my Then I Met You Living Cleansing Balm, enjoy more K-Beauty content here As soon as I’m done with my current cleansing balm then I will be using this one. Can’t complain about the price and I’m excited to try it out.
KAJA
$21 | 👍 Beauty Bento Bouncy Shimmer Eyeshadow Trio, Sparkling Rosé – This is an allure 2020 Best of Beauty Award Winner and it is a popular product on Sephora’s website. This is a cool and fun on-the-go shimmery eyeshadow product. These shadows are metallic, shimmery, and very pigmented. I don’t get major fall out, it’s small, and convenient for travel. Gotta be honest, I’m not sure I’ll ever purchase this again, but I don’t regret trying it out.
Huda Beauty
$28 | 👍 Tantour Face Contouring Sculpt & Shade Brush – This is an ok dual-ended brush with synthetic fibers for contour and bronzer application. It is an Allure Best of Beauty award winner. This is a quality brush that I’ve been using for contouring, and I like it. I use the small end for contour and the bigger end to blend. I’m not a makeup brush connoisseur, I just know that I don’t regret this purchase.

Have a beautiful day
What a great haul! I’ve heard so many positive things about Fenty’s Gloss Bomb. Even though I don’t like lip gloss, I might just have to try it now.
And I agree with your statement about the Living Proof shampoos. I can’t even rationalize spending almost $30 on a small bottle of shampoo and conditioner. The only exception is their dry shampoo, which has worked better than other dry shampoos I’ve tried LOL.
Again, thanks for sharing your haul! It’s giving me some shopping inspo.

Valerie, so glad you enjoyed this post. Yes, it was a pleasant surprise that the Fenty glosses turned out to be so amazing. Also, Maybelline Lifter Lip Gloss With Hyaluronic Acid is supposed to be a really good and affordable drugstore alternative ($7) to the Fenty ones. I need to check out the dry shampoo from Living proof, thank you for the tip. Hope your 2021 is starting out good so far. Hope you have a beautiful day 🙂
