Which makeup palette or gift set sold out fastest at the Sephora Holiday 2016 Event? The Laura Mercier Fall In Love Face Illuminator Collection! Yup, not the Too Faced the Chocolate Shop, not the Tarte Pretty Paintbox, the Laura Mercier Fall In Love Face Illuminator Collection was the item that everyone grabbed up quick as you please.

I must be delusional about the popularity of highlighters! I always think highlighters are such an Instagram thing but I don’t actually see anyone walking around with perfectly contoured and strobbed faces around Manhattan. Or maybe I’m just not hanging around the right places.

I grabbed up the new Soap & Glory the Ultimatte Eyeshadow Palette ($20) recently because Ulta has a BOGO offer on all Soap & Glory Makeup! I realize I didn’t actually LOVE the Soap & Glory The Perfect Ten Eyeshadow Palette but I wasn’t determined to try the all matte Soap & Glory the Ultimatte Eyeshadow Palette.

Possibly the most exciting element of the Too Faced Holiday 2016 Collection and the Too Faced The Chocolate Shop is the fact everything smells like chocolate among other scents! For example, Too Faced Grand Palette apparently has not one but three different scented palettes which are Peppermint Mocha, Gingerbread Coffee, and Eggnog Latte!

I admit when I saw the Chocolate Covered Strawberry Blush I had a Willy Wonka moment. “Lick an orange it tastes like an orange, lick a pineapple it tastes like a pineapple…” Wouldn’t it be great if each individual shade smelled like its name? The blush would smell like Chocalte Covered Strawberry, the Cake Batter eyeshadow would smell like cake, the Toffee Crunch eyeshadow would smell like toffee…..

Wouldn’t that be cool?

Anyway, it’s funny as we had a rather lengthy discussion in my Sweet Peach Palette review about potentially seeing other scented makeup products from Too Faced. Many of you wanted pumpkin or apple scented products for Fall 2016. Sadly, that’s not happening but at least we have yummy scents treats arriving for the Holidays right?

So, I attended the Sephora Holiday 2016 Preview Event but the most devastating thing ever was the fact they didn’t have the Drunk Elephant AHA Moment Set. Ok, so I admit, I didn’t love the Drunk B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Gel but I have heard so many good things about the T.L.C. Framboos Glycolic Night Serum.

When I headed in store the first thing I did immediately before I even looked at any of the Holiday 2016 Makeup Sets was ask one of the sales associates if they are the Drunk Elephant AHA Moment Set. She was super sweet and headed into the back to see if any were available. Sadly, she came out empty handed.

Oh woe is me.
