2014 Sephora Beauty Insider Birthday Gift

I finally got around to picking up my gift from Sephora! And I still have a birthday treat waiting for me at Panera. I can't help procrastinating...I'm kind of enjoying still benefiting from my birthday, even though it was over two weeks ago.

I have a confession to make. I have not bought a single beauty product this year. What kind of beauty blogger am I?! It's not a ban that I am on, I'm just putting money to better use (at this time) like home repairs. So if you're wondering why I'm not reviewing many newer collections or showing beauty hauls, I haven't been baited in. Yet. Christmas collections are my Kryptonite! So maybe I'm just holding out.

 The Smoky Extravagant Mascara. I really like Smoky Lash, so I have high hopes for this one.

Rouge Artist Natural in N9. It's listed as a "copper pink", but it looks more like a rusty color on me. Everyone is raving about it being a perfect color. I just wasn't sold on it when I quickly applied it to test it out. I do like how it feels on the lips, though. I will have a post up soon with swatches!
