This post has been a long time coming. The reason that it has taken so long is that I've had some crazy skin issues with my lips. OCC Lip Tar swatches were supposed to be included in this post, but I can't wear them due to my lips being on the fritz. I'm not convinced that my issues were caused by the Lip Tars, but they happened around the same time. However, I haven't used them in a long time, but the problem keeps coming back. Anyways, here are the lip swatches that I did get to.

Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette!
As you can see, the packaging is VERY luxe! I'm a girl that loves her fancy things! The velvet box holding the palette is so soft and can be used for jewelry or to hold something else. The thing that I dislike the most about the packaging is that it is extremely prone to fingerprints. I HATE that, but it's really the only downside to this palette that I see. The little corner that is open in the palette allows you to lift up the shadows and use it as another container (or a secret hiding place). The design around the edge and the jeweled "UD" are super cute, too.

Fabulous Mirror!
I saw Beauty Crush talk about Les Tai Tai Model Mirrors on her YouTube. They just looked sooo cool! A large, but compact light up mirror is perfect for any girl on the go. And the designs are all so cute! They used to be $35 I think, but now they are $25. I ordered 1 Model Mirror and 1 extra battery as a backup. I received a package with just a mirror in it one day so I emailed the company about the battery, wondering if it was being sent separately or if it was just a mistake. Then, the very next day, I received another package containing ANOTHER mirror and 2 batteries! It was a beautiful mistake! lol So I gave my sister the extra. Check em out! Maybe you'll get 2...
Kat Von D True Romance Palette in Truth
I got this palette because it was on sale on Sephora.com. I thought it would be nice because of my green eyes. The pigmentation is a little off on some of the colors. Also, the staying power on a couple is really weak as well. The colors together are really unique and worth a shot if you like those colors. I still need to test it more before I would recommend it to anyone. So we shall see...

Too Faced Eye Love Palette
This palette was a 500 point perk at Sephora. Since they haven't had the best perks lately, I decided to jump all over this. It also came with a mini Shadow Insurance. The palette is made up of 2 shadows from each of the Too Faced palettes until that point. (Naked Eye, Natural Eye, Smokey Eye, and Romantic Eye) The shadows in the Smokey Eye section are from the old Smokey Eye palette, not the one I have. This palette is nice to have just as a back up to the others. Or if you want a palette that gives you 4 or more different looks. But just as with all of the other Too Faced palettes, the quality is very nice.

Too Faced Natural Eye Palette
This is my oldest Too Faced palette that's why they have so much more use than the other ones. This is a very good palette to have in your collection. There are a couple colors that are dupes for some in the UD Naked palette. This one is a little thicker than the others because it came with a double ended brush thingy. I really liked having the angled brush with the palette because it made using the dark colors as eyeliner much easier. The only color that I am not a fan of is Nude Beach. It's a pretty color, but the glitter falls out and gets all over your face. Also, the Fashion eye look card picture didn't turn out so it is missing.

Too Faced Romantic Eye Palette
I wanted this palette because I have green eyes and I thought that it would be perfect for me. One thing that I didn't realize is that this palette is mostly matte colors and I'm not really into that. However, this palette does contain one of my favorite highlight color in Soulmates. It's super soft and just amazing. This is probably my least favorite of my 4 Too Faced palettes surprisingly enough. But I still use it from time to time.
