Sephora Sundays 2011 #1: It's back!

Last January, I started a Sephora Sundays mini series that included products that I liked and available at Sephora's website. (See last year's series here!) I can spend hourssss just browsing on Sephora.com to checking out their new products, samples and just to look at products I really want to try. For 2011, I wanted to start it again since it's the new year and there's always lots of new stuff being added.

Here are some of my current items on my wishlist:

	1) Pacifica I Love fragrance - This set contains 5 solid perfumes, including Tuscan Blood Orange, Tahitian Gardenia, Hawaiian Ruby Guava, Indian Coconut Nectar, and French Lilac. I have already tried all of these except French Lilac.. and they're all yummy! See my past Pacifica reviews here.
	2) Tarte Radiant & Rested Luminous Complexion Collection- This kit is also a limited edition set from Sephora that contains 5 products to give your face a radiant look for the new year! This set contains: Natural Cheek Stain in Glisten, EmphasEYES™ Inner Rim Brightener, Recreate™ Silicone-Free Primer With Wrinkle Rewind™ Technology, Smooth Operator™ Illuminating Serum, Park Ave Princess Mineral Bronzer. I am def. interested in the inner rim brightener.. :)
	Josie Maran Eye Love You Too Palette- Looks like the packaging upgraded but the colors are so perfect for the Spring season. Love the light pink, green and blues. :) It's $42 which is a bit pricey for me right now since I've tons of other eyeshadows to use. :)

Holiday Series #5: Pacifica Wanderlust Kit in Tuscan Blood Orange scent

I've been a huge fan of Pacifica since I was introduced to their scent, Tuscan Blood Orange last year (Remember my Pacifica Travel Set from last year?) This year, they have a new kit for the Holidays- Wanderlust Collection ($28, USD)- that contains their full size Body butter, Body wash and rollerball perfume. It's a dream come true!

Their body butters used to be in a tub jar which made it easy for germs to collect; can you imagine your hands digging in the cream every time? The past year, they've repackaged the body butters into a tube so it'll be cleaner and easier to squeeze out of. I slather this on after I shower with their Body Wash. It smells deliriously good and the sweeet scent makes me not want to get out of the shower!

Their rollerball perfumes is a convenient way to get touch ups of the scent during the day. It's easy to use and extremely fragrant. The scent of blood orange, raspberry and strawberry notes is delicious and so sweet, I could just eat it!! But I won't... ;) (Have you tried the California Star Jasmine scent before?)


Currently available at Sephora.com and Pacifica.com, so get your Wanderlust kit for the holidays! Enjoy :)
P.S. Kits are the way to go this year; can you tell I'm obsessed with holiday kits this year?

Pacifica fragrance collection: California Star Jasmine

At the end of last year, I had bought myself the Pacifica Tuscan Blood Orange Travel set because I couldn't get over the over-the-top citrus-y Tuscan Blood Orange scent! It was also an early holiday gift for myself. :) If you're not familiar with Pacifica, they carry natural fragrances & perfumes in florals, herbals, fruits and woods and all in various products- including candles, spray perfumes, soaps, and more!

Recently, Pacifica added a new floral fragrance to their collection- California Star Jasmine. This scent is meant to capture the fresh, California air (probably near a sunny beach or something) and has notes of star jasmine, orange and faint driftwood. I tried this scent on their new roll-on perfumes and I really like the packaging of this. Each roll-on perfume ($12, USD, 0.33 oz.) has a screw top and metal-ish rollerball on top where the scent will come through smoothly on your skin. It's tall and slim and I have even mistaken this as my pen when reaching into my purse.

Another great product is their Solid Perfumes ...

As part of the Tuscan Blood Orange Travel Set, I thought this was very convenient to carry with for a party or a night out on the town for quick touch-ups. These are made of natural oils and waxes so everything is paraben-free and also 100% vegan. You can get these for $9 USD each in your favorite scents. Another fruity favorite of mine is the Brazilian Mango Grapefruit. This delicious blend is tropical and makes you wish you were sitting by the tiki bar with a delicious fruity drink. :)

Pacifica Tuscan Blood Orange Travel Set

In my previous Holiday Series post, I mentioned a must-have for the holidays- the Pacifica Tuscan Blood Orange Travel Set. Inside the box is a wonderful trio- the solid perfume, the soy candle and body butter. Purchased from Sephora, this set costs $14. It's a great deal because you get a full-size solid perfume which would normally cost $9. I had originally bought their soap, which unfortunately is not part of the set, because I want another one! The scent is amaazing- smells so fruity and delicious!

Now, you can see these products really tiny but they're great for traveling (except for the candle, unless you want your hotel room to smell nice too!) The solid perfume is great for your pocket or purse- which I carry with me everyday! The body butter is white but goes on very smoothly. It also absorbs quickly and doesn't leave an oily finish.

To see why else you should get one of these today..

Gorgeous packaging! This is such a cute box that you can reuse to store your other precious cosmetics and other small trinkets.


More details on what exactly Tuscan Blood Orange is, if you're curious. I was! :)
