The February 2017 Play! by Sephora theme is “The Soft Side” and included the following items:
~Clinique Pep-Start Hydroblur Moisturizer (7mL) ($4.43): This lightweight moisturizer “blurs” the skin to hide imperfections while also providing all-day hydration. I didn’t find it hydrating enough alone, but I liked it with a little extra moisturizer mixed in. It did a great job “blurring” my skin, though.
~NARS Velvet Lip Glide in Bound (0.7oz) ($7.70): Such a pretty color and the formula is amazing. This lasts all day! And then some! It’s not sticky at all.
~Marc Jacobs Divine Decadence (1.2mL) ($3.41): This scent has notes of Champagne Extract, Orange Blossom, Creamy Bergamot, Gardenia, Hydrangea, Honeysuckle, Saffron, Vanilla, Liquid Amber. It’s amazing! Perfect for Spring, but it has a deepness to it as well.
~Sephora Collection Lashcraft Length & Volume Mascara (0.094oz) ($3.42): I am not a huge fan of this, but I think it’s more from the awkward wand than anything else. It was too small and felt so hard to apply. The formula itself seemed to be nice (from what actually did land on my lashes anyway).
~Too Faced Lip Injection in Milkshake (0.03oz) ($4.71): LOVE! The color is amazing, and I could totally see that my lips got plumper when I used it. It’s a little sticky, but I can deal. Compared to some lip plumping products out there, I found this one to be quite mild in regards to tingling and burning. There is for sure a sensation though, and it kicks in about 30 seconds after you apply.
~Origins GinZing Refreshing Eye Cream (0.17oz) ($10): This eye cream helps with dullness, puffiness and dark circles. It helped with puffiness and did make my eyes feel less tired. So far, so good!
~Swatches: Left: NARS Velvet Lip Glide in Bound. Right: Too Faced Lip Injection Glossy in Milkshake.
All totaled I came up with a value of $33.70 for the February 2017 Play! by Sephora. I loved this box! Lots of fun goodies to try from fantastic brands. As usual, this box did not disappoint.
