January Sephora Haul

For my Graduation gift, my SIL's gave me a Sephora Gift Card since they know I love makeup and I can be picky as well.  I originally already spent tons when Sephora had their F&F sale, so I didn't know what else to get.  I got a few things that were on sale and what I've been lemming for.

Here's a quick look:


 Tokidoki Palette, Benefit One Prime Day Set, SephoraOPI Metro Chic, Tarte Blush


 All opened up for you to SEE!



I'm on the fence with a few of the products. I swatched some of the eyeshadows from the Tokidoki Palette and I'm not sure I'm loving it. I may end up giving it to my sister or returning it for something else at Sephora.  I used some of the Benefit primers, but haven't used it enough or maybe long enough.  I still have to use Metro Chic, but from what I heard its a nice taupe color, hopefully it suits my skin color well.  As for the Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Tipsy, I think I ordered the wrong color. It looks too orangey for me, as I thought from swatches it would be more of a coral color.  I'll probably return it for a different color as I've been wanting to try the Tarte blushes.

Let me know if you guys want to see swatches or review on these before I change my mind.  I hope to at least like them to keep.


 Are these Keepers?

The palette is def a keeper. I'm not sure if the prime time thing by benefit was worth it for me. Everything was wayy too small!

I swatched some of the Toki Doki stuff at sephora and remember them being overpriced for the quality...it was not pigmented enough. Let us know how you feel!

Congrats on graduating, Mary! :D So sweet of your SIL to gift you with a Sephora giftcard. I haven't tried Porefessional but every review I've read for it has been good.
