It’s my birthday yesterday so I thought I’m going to treat myself with something that I’ve had my eyes on for awhile now. So, I decided to go to Sephora with a set mind of getting the Urban Decay UD Gwen Stefani Eyeshadow Palette . The moment I walked into the store, I went straight to check out the UD Gwen Stefani Eyeshadow Palette and started swatching. Oh my gosh! the shades on this product is beautiful, the quality of the eyeshadow is so smooth and it glides on your skin just like butter. Anyway, while in the store I thought why not check out other products too before purchasing one for comparison. I looked around and swatched more and majority of the products that I laid my hands on are all amazing.
While checking out other products, this made me question myself whether or not to purchase the eyeshadow palette that I had my eyes on originally. I had to think deeply and asked myself, do I really need this now? If you’ve read my blogpost on What I got for Christmas?!? I received this eyeshadow from Too Faced The Chocolate Bar Eye Palette which I’m obsessed with since the first time I’ve used them. So, I ended up leaving the store with no UD Gwen Stefani Eyeshadow Palette. But hey! I didn’t leave empty handed because I was able to redeem my Free Sephora Birthday Gift.
Now, let me show you what’s on my bucket list and maybe..just maybe I will purchase one anytime within the year!?! (Yup! within the year as I’m really going to try saving)
First let me share some eyeshadow palettes that really captured my eyes.
These products can be purchased at Sephora and some other beauty sites like tarte, NARS, stila, Urban Decay Cosmetics, Too Faced. I guess no need for description as to why I want them all. I’m sure you too will agree!
Next, let me show you some blushes. I only have a few choices since I am very satisfied with my HOURGLASS Ambient Lighting Blush Palette. I don’t own any of these products below that is why they are on my bucket list. By the way, here is a link if you would like to purchase or read more about the UD | GWEN STEFANI Blush Palette since I heard it’s not available at Sephora (yet). While the rest can be purchased at Sephora online or in stores.
For my lips, since there are so many lip products to choose from – I just narrowed them down to these. For those who are interested in the UD | GWEN STEFANI Lipstick link is available for you and just like the UD Gwen Stefani Blush Palette they are not yet available in any Sephora stores or even at Ulta (as we speak anyway). Also, I heard that the UD Gwen Stefani lipsticks and blush palette is only sold exclusively at UrbanDecay.com
I’m sure you’ve seen the Christian Louboutin Silky Satin Lip Colour everywhere now and some of you wants to have one while some think it’s way too much for a lipstick (I KNOW! It’s too expensive.. for me anyway) but if given the chance to take one home…. why not? That would be awesome!
This Yves Saint Laurent ROUGE PUR COUTURE Kiss & Love Collectors Lipstick is just so pretty that you don’t even want to use them. Look at those cute little kisses design on the lipstick itself. They described this as a symbol of femininity for Yves Saint Laurent, The Kiss & Love Edition dresses the iconic Rouge Pur Couture with “love bites”.
I’ve seen a lot of beauty lovers talked about ColourPop Cosmetics and since they are 100% fur baby friendly, bunny approved, and only tested their products on humans – then this makes me want to support them even more.
I’m probably the only one here that haven’t tried this Too Faced Melted Liquified Long Wear Lipstick. I’ve heard and read a ton of great reviews about this lipstick and I cannot wait to try one myself.
Last but not the least, is from a brand that I’ve been drooling on since day one. I’ve seen quite a good number of my favorite Youtube guru’s talking about this and that made me want to purchase these makeup to see if it’s really worth the hype.
Charlotte Tilbury
Everything in this product to me is just gorgeous. From the packaging to the shade options and the price seemed pretty descent as well. I wish I will have one of these makeup in my collection one day.
So there you have it. What do you guys think about the products mentioned above? Any recommendation or comments about it? I would love to hear your thoughts too.
Thanks for dropping by!
I’m a UD fan so yes on the Gwen Stefani shadow palette. Might even get one of her lipsticks too. Heard lots of good things about Colour Pop so I might check out their lip products.

Oh, so sorry I missed your birthday! Happy Belated! 🙂
It’s funny how you’re now challenging your beauty purchases. I’ve found myself being a little bit more selective about my choices – do I really NEED it? Why am I wanting this… is it because I keep seeing it online (ie promoted by the companies?) or the packaging is pretty? Or the brand name?
It’s really helpful to write down all of your wish list – it helps you make better shopping decisions in the future! I’ve put quite a few wish list items on hold or completely removed them.
What did you get for your Sephora birthday gift?
