Sephora Holiday 2017 arrives today with the limited-edition traditional release of the massive Into the Stars Palette as well as other yummy gift sets, eyeshadow palettes, and brush sets. I always look forward to Sephora’s latest seasonal releases as there’s always a few hits in the midst of all the gift sets. Last year, for me it was the Delicate Eyeshadow Palette and this year it looks like they have something similiar available which is called the Seeing Stars Eyeshadow Palette. If it’s half as good as the Delicate Eyeshadow Palette we’re in for a treat!

There are also plenty of makeup brush sets to look forward to. I always hold a special spot in my heart for Sephora brush sets as they are typically very, very good quality. In most cases, even better than the MAC Holiday Brush Sets!

A few other items that caught my eye were the Winter Magic Eyeshadow Palette which contains an array of beautiful browns and a mere ten bucks also, the Sephora La Piñata which is literally a Pinata stuffed with ten beauty, skincare, and makeup goodies! I see that one selling out fast.

Let’s see what else is available with Sephora Holiday 2017!

Bath & Body Works Face & Body Refresher launched a short time ago in three different scents and I have to admit as a fan of facial mists I was excited about these! This is a non-drying, alcohol-free formula that refreshes and conditions skin. It can be used on the body or on the face and is available in three scents of Acia Berry, Rose Water, and Almond Milk.

Sounds awesome right?

Have you tried them?

Yay or Nay?

I can’t believe that September is almost over and October is upcoming! I guess shopping Makeup Revolution Halloween 2017 now would be a good idea yes? Because if October goes as fast as September did that means Halloween will be here before you know it.

I’m not sure what I’m going to be for Halloween this year! Dilemma! What about you? Any good costume ideas? Do share them!

Speaking of Halloween I was lucky enough to finally score the Hyde and Eek! Skull & Brain Candy Bowl or as I call it cookie jar at Target. You can’t even understand how happy I was to find this after hunting around various Target stores for it the last two weeks. Obsessed much? That’s me!

But back to the Makeup Revolution Halloween 2017 offerings!

Take a look at the too cute Benefit The Complexionista Palette ($32) that’s available for a limited time this season. This contains Dandelion Twinkle which is a nude pink highlighting powder as well as Watt’s Up Highlighter and a Hoola Lit to add a touch of warm to fair skin. You’ll also get two Boi-ing Concealer shades in 1 and 2 and of course, Benefit includes a tips and tricks sheet for placement of each of the products in this set.

It’s a cute selection of products to brighten up your complexion or as a beginners contouring kit.

The art work reminds me of the old Stila Girls Palettes. Remember those? God, I used to adore those (and still have them in my makeup vault).

Benefit The Complexionista is available now at Sephora.com.

Philosophy Holiday 2017 arrived today and it brings us some new scented 3-in-1 Shower Gels like Holiday Pajamas! Thankfully, I’m not too tempted as my shower gel obsession hasn’t taken control of my life lately. I feel good about that, even proud!

Anyway, Philosophy Holiday 2017 does have a few new tricks and gift sets to look forward to. I was hoping their new latest scents, Amazing Grace Ballet and Pure Grace Nude Rose, would make an appearance in some new Holiday gift set but sadly, I’m not seeing anything along those lines. Which reminds me of better days for Philosophy when their gift sets used to come in such cute boxes and they had a slew of shower gels available.

None the less, there’s still some good offerings to be had.

Here’s the details!
