Teen Beauty: The Sephora Collection Blockbuster.

/

Hi! It's Caci here for Teen Beauty. I hope you had a great Thanksgiving and got some great holiday deals over the weekend. I did some shopping and am making my wish list. AT this point, it is pretty endless - ha, ha.

My wish list includes a few pretty makeup items this year. Since I wear makeup everyday now, I am playing more and more and having so much fun. Isn't it great to discover new, beautiful things?

One item at the VERY top of my Wish List is this Sephora Collection Endless Color Blockbuster. It is a BLOCKBUSTER of a deal I tell you. And what is inside the palette (that closes into a Sephora-like bag!!!) is nothing short of a-m-a-z-i-n-g.

With 187 different makeup products. My friends, you read that correctly. 187! Here is a little breakdown, taken from the Sephora website:

98 original, iridescent effect eyeshadows
70 shiny lip glosses
6 cream eyeliners
2 lip liners
3 eyeliners
Mascara
4 applicators

It says that the palette contains different trays of product that slide in and out to accommodate all of the different shades. Also inside the palette is a very special silver ticket.

"...silver ticket automatically enters you in the SEPHORA COLLECTION Silver Ticket Sweepstakes. Visit Sephora.com on January 1, 2011 to see if you have the winning silver ticket. The grand prize winner will receive a $1,000 Sephora shopping spree, a one-year supply of SEPHORA COLLECTION products, and more"

I mean really, this palette can do no wrong, right? I am hoping it is under the tree for me. Just in case anyone else wants one, and wants to buy me one (Hello, Mom!), this Sephora Blockbuster is $48 at Sephora stores and Sephora.com.

Need a New Mascara? Take Your Pick with LashStash.

Yes, I have my favorite mascaras. At the same time I must say I am forever on the search for yet another winner. I change up my mascara often; much more often than the standard 3 month shelf-life they have. You have no idea how much mascara I must waste. Ugh -

Much to my delight, I stumbled upon this great discovery set of mascara samples that are right up my alley. Now, when I say sample, these are large sample sizes products. Most of them are more than 1/2 of the size you would normally get.

This is one of Sephora's Favorites sets. As each set contains some of Sephora's best selling products all in one great set, this one contains 11 mascaras to try. Here is Lashstash Mascara Deluxe Sampler.

The mascaras included in the set:

- 0.1 oz Anastasia Lash Lifting Mascara
- 0.1 oz Tarte Lights Camera Lashes
- 0.1 oz Sephora Atomic Volume Mascara
- 0.24 oz Stila Multi Effect Mascara
- 0.14 oz Benefit Bad Gal Mini
- 0.2 oz Bare Escentuals Buxom Lash
- 0.13 oz Too Faced Mini Lash Injection Pin Point
- 0.12 oz Smashbox Bionic
- 0.07 oz Lancome Cils Booster 
- 0.085 oz DuWop Lash Venom
- 0.14 oz Korres Provitamin B5 and Rice Bran Mascara

Can you believe that I have only used two of the mascaras in this set? I can't and I can't wait to try the rest.

One of the best parts about this kit is the price. $39! Yes - $39! Lashstash is available only at Sephora and Sephora.com.

Best in Bronze.

/

Testing different bronzers and self-tanning products has got to be one of my most favorite things about being beauty obsessed. I cannot get enough of a good bronzer - plain and simple. I have tried countless bronzers and continue to enjoy it. Knowing this, you should understand why I am totally smitten with this new product from Sephora. It is one of the Sephora Favorites kits and this one is their Best in Bronze.

Best in Bronze features a collection of Sephora's most popular selling bronzing products. This is truly a one-of-a-kind sampler set stocked with 10 bronzers and luminizers. Just look at what you get:

  • Bare Escentuals bareMinerals All Over Face Color in Faux Tan
  • Josie Maran Bronzing Argan Oil
  • Lorac Tantalizer Baked Bronzer in Golden Bronze
  • Too Faced Pink Leopard Bronzing Powder
  • SEPHORA COLLECTION Nail Polish in Bright Red
  • Benefit High Beam
  • TEMPTU RETOUCH Highlighter in Gold
  • Smashbox Artificial Light Illuminating Lotion in Glow
  • Tarte EmphasEYES Waterproof Clay Shadow Liner in Bronze
  • Korres Monoi Oil Bronzing Powder in Sunglow Light

So, I don't get the addition of the red nail polish in this collection, as red is the last color I think of when I think of summer nail shades. With that aside, I am wanting this set and will be picking it up when I go to the store next week to pick up my special Beauty Insider birthday gift next week.

Sephora Favorites Best in Bronze is available exclusively at Sephora, for $39.00.
