Hey guys! I'm super excited for today's review, which features the brand spankin' Marc Jacobs Beauty Velvet Noir Mascara & Primer*. I was lucky enough to get to try this out as a part of Influenster and I can't even tell you how excited I was about it. Admittedly, I don't try a lot of high end mascaras these days, because I have a lot of drugstore favorites that really get it done for me and it's hard to justify the spend. That said, there have been a handful of high end mascaras that have really stood above the rest for me and I was eager to know if this one would as well.

I feel like I'm supermuch behind the times on trying out the Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer... but I admittedly tend to be that way. I think it was either early in 2017 or late in 2016 when this product was reformulated and everyone kind of went insane for it. I actually did want to buy it back then, but the shade selection was narrower when this was first relaunched - I believe - and I couldn't find one light enough for my skin. I actually got a sample of this with a Sephora order and after trying it out a handful a times, I decided to pick up a full size.

I feel like every year during the holiday season, there's one palette that just grabs me and I NEED TO HAVE IT. This year, it was definitely the MAKE UP FOR EVER Lustrous Shadow Palette, which is filled with the kind of shades that I can reach for all the time and boasts a new shadow formula. Though this palette is no longer available, I wanted to review it for you guys because of the new shadow formula. I actually own one of MUFE's palettes with the old formula... and I have to admit, I wasn't completely in love with the formula - more on that later - so I was curious about how this palette was going to stack up.

Every year during the holidays tarte releases a blush palette and I've always been tempted but I never pulled the trigger until this year. The Sephora Birthday Gift this year included an absolutely gorgeous tarte blush and I pretty much used nothing else on my cheeks for the last four months of 2017, so it was easy for me to decide to try out the TARTE Blush Bazaar Amazonian Clay Blush Palette when I ended up withe some gift cards I was itching to spend.

There are some beauty brands that I've had my eye on for a long time, but haven't pulled the trigger on trying out. For a long time, Rodial was one of those brands. I was fascinated and super interested in their products, but I wasn't sure what to try out and because it has a more luxury price tag I didn't want to choose wrong. Enter the Rodial Hero Collection Kit, which includes travel sizes of four of their best selling products. I've been testing this out for nearly a month now and I'm definitely ready to give you my review.

I've become a little bit of a collector of the small palettes that tarte has been releasing for the past few years. In fact, one of my all time favorite palettes is the tarte Tarteist Pro To Go palette and I still reach for it really consistently and find it quite versatile for having only six shades in it. Because I loved that palette so much, there was really no question as to whether or not I was going to pick up the tarte Tartelette Flirt Palette as soon as the Sephora VIB Rouge Sale started.

So... How is it and how does it stack up to the Tarteist Pro To Go and the Tartelette Tease palettes? Keep reading to find out!
