Tarina Tarantino Haul - Sephora (clearance)

Ladies and Gents, I bring you...

Tarina Tarantino Haul

A while ago, Sephora started to phase out and clearance Tarina Tarantino cosmetics.  Tarina Tarantino cosmetics did not get a ton of love on some of the beauty boards I frequent, but this clearance did help in pushing the products along and landing in your hands.  Please note that her cosmetics will still be available...I did hear a rumor that they may eventually end up on her website and can be found at her stores.  Let's get on with the yummy pictures, shall we?

Feather powder blush

TT Conditioning Lip Sheen

TT Conditioning Lip Sheen in Queen Alice

Buxom 100pt Perk

I have been using these products already familiar with the line.  To see swatches of Victorian Punk hypershadow, go HERE.  I had played around with her products every time I walked into a Sephora it seemed.  I really am disappointed that they will no longer carry this line.  Yes, the packaging may not appeal to all, but they are all really lovely products.

If you still go to Sephora's website, there are still a few items left to purchase!  I have seen the hauls of other bloggers that were able to pick up quite a bit of items...the prices were awesome.

Swatches and full reviews to come.  I do apologize the lighting on these is not the greatest.  Fall here in Michigan on a non sunny day usually equals out to drab lighting.  A light box and better internal lighting is what I am working on next.

Thanks for stopping by!

Makeup For Ever Smoky Lash WP - Review

Hello there...I should say you waited long enough for this.  MUFE Smoky Lash mascara, the one and only!


I feel almost bad writing this as I cannot think of anything wrong with this mascara.  But at the end of the day, I have to be as impartial as possible.  This mascara comes packaged the same way the regular formula does, aside from a blue band at the neck that indicates it is waterproof.  As for the wand/brush of Smoky Lash, it does not stray from the original either...


What I will say about any differences is that the formula is a bit tackier and thicker than regular Smoky Lash.    The brush works in exactly the same way, which is huge reason why I love this mascara.   The brush helps to thicken, lengthen, separate and I ADORE the way it holds curl, both wp and non-wp formulas.

When you brush the formula is brushed through the lashes, it feels the same way.  Once the mascara starts to dry down, then you start to feel the difference.  The WP version tends to feel thicker as the formula dries.  When you run it through lashes a few times, you can feel it get tackier and tackier.  It makes it a bit more of a task when brushing it in, though the results are worth it.


I love the definition, the wear, the hold, the color.  Oh my god, this is the blackest mascara I have ever tried!   And for those wondering, this formula is super waterproof!!!  I tested this out at the gym and I am no stranger to a huge sweat when I work out.  This works almost too good.  It is pretty tough to get off in one go.  That is probably the only thing wrong with this mascara.  All in all, it is worth the price point for sure.  You can find this at Sephora for $22.00 USD.

What mascaras are you guys into right now?

Small Haul 7/20/2011 (sephora)

Hey all!  Just wanting to share a quick haul that I got the other day.  This all started with the Makeup Forever mini set that Sephora was giving to VIB's...if you want to learn about becoming a beauty insider or VIB, go here.

Sephora Haul!
I went in to get my staple mascara, MUFE Smokey Lash.  I also added in the Dior Addict Lip Glow :)!  The mini VIB kit contained:

  • mini smokey lash mascara
  • mini lab shine
  • mini hd powder
  • mini aqua liner
All the minis are super cute and very practical.  I was hoping the bad would have been a bit bigger, but I love it all the same.  

I also had some points that I was thinking about cashing in...this is what I picked for my 500 point perk...


Pacifica Indian Coconut Nectar Trio including...
  • body butter
  • perfume
  • body wash
What you all been hauling?  :)
