L’Oreal X Isabel Marant Lip and Cheek Gloss ($12) is a new glossy, sheer cheek and lip tint that launched in collaboration with street designer, Isabel Marant recently. Isabel actually launched an entire collection of items with L’Oreal quite quietly in my opinion as there hasn’t been a big splash with this collection but I suspect it might be featured heavily in Spring 2019 promos!

This isn’t the first time L’Oreal teamed up with a designer to create a collection as they did do a collection of lipsticks with Balmain Paris as well. Both that collection and this one are available exclusively at Barney’s and Ulta.

I have so many cheeks stains it’s a bit absurd. It’s actually my look of choice on the weekends! I tend to dab a little concealer under my eyes, curl my lashes (no mascara), and just pop on some cheek stain and go! I just look younger without a bunch of makeup on my face lately and I feel like it’s a like easier to dab so little on and go!

L’Oreal X Isabel Marant Lip and Cheek Gloss sounded interesting enough although, I do hate multitasking products that go from my mouth to my face. I dunno, that just kind of makes me squeamish! I purchased two of these since they were BOGO at Ulta (the entire collection is at the moment!) to avoid that drama 🙂

Here’s some thoughts on this formula!

Holiday Makeup Vaults seem to have come to a little bit of a standstill for Holiday 2018 (seems like everyone is concentrating on Christmas Crackers at the moment!). But there are still some great makeup vaults available that are available at killer prices especially now that Sephora has surprised us today and said, “Why yes, you can go ahead and take 20% off your purchases yet again Rouge and VIBers!”

To celebrate that most joyous occasion it might be a good time to peek at some of these vaults as they have a killer selection of products which can be broken down into several gifts for friends or family members (Not really a great thing for me as so few of my close friends and family are into makeup as heavily as I am!) or they might be a good pick to spoil yourself with. I picked a few that I really think get you a BIG bang for your buck after using the 20% off discount.

Now the only problem with vaults is they can be tricky for makeup addicts like us as we sometimes own everything that’s in the vault already! However, if you’re a person that has a lot of patience in waiting for a good deal this might be your chance to score!

Here’s a breakdown of some of the best sets that might be worth picking up during Sephora’s sale!

The YSL Lip Showroom Vault has arrived at Sephora.com and it’s 20% off tomorrow (November 16th) for Rouge and VIBs using your discount code and 15% Off for BIs. Yup, if you haven’t heard Sephora has extended the sale an extra week so everyone can take advantage of it one last time.

YSL had a vault last year that was a good deal like this one. It’s a pretty high-end purchase and a good pick for luxury makeup lovers. It’s $230 but after the discount you’ll looking at $184 and considering the Vault contains over $300 worth of product it ends up working out to a fairnly nice deal.

The set includes:

• 3 x 0.13 oz Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick in 52 Rouge Rose (rosy coral), 70 Le Nu (basic nude), 1 Le Rouge (blood red)
• 3 x 0.15 oz Rouge Volupte Shine Oil-in-Stick Lipstick in 12 Corail Doman (bright cajun coral), 43 Rose Rive Gauche (smoky rose), 15 Corail Spontini (soft smoky coral)
