SEPHORA: GUERLAIN LA PETITE ROBE NOIRE PERFUME AND NARS TOUNDRA MATTE LIP PENCIL REVIEW

SO EXCITED! I FINALLY GOT MY GUERLAIN PERFUME. THEY SENT ME A SAMPLE VIAL OF THE PERFUME TO TRY AND I FELL IN LOVE! IT IS A VERY DARK AND FRUITY PERFUME. SEPHORA NOTES IT AS:

"An absolutely essential and utterly irresistible perfumed creation. The legendary heart-shaped bottle has been boldly reinterpreted with a modern touch. Its crystalline transparency, fading from black to powdery pink, reveals the silhouette of the little, black dress. 

Its simple signature enhances and romances several exceptional materials in a bold overdose—black cherry blinks the first wink. It is illustrated by a clever blend that extends exquisite almond and delicious berries. The second wink takes place as rose enters the stage. Finally, the shadowy temptations of licorice and smoky black tea are ever-so-revealing and lead to irresistible seduction. For the ultimate temptation, the entire creation is wrapped in Guerlinade—fresh, enigmatic, and exhilarating, mischievous and captivating. 
Style:
Fresh. Enigmatic. Exhilarating"

I CAN REALLY SMELL THE CHERRY, ROSE AND TEA. WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN SUCH A BEAUTIFUL COMBO? THIS WILL BE MY WINTER'S SIGNATURE SCENT. I GOT THE SET WITH THE 1.6 OZ BOTTLE + THE MINIATURE PERFUME.

I HAVE BEEN DYING TO TRY THE NARS MATTE LIP PENCIL IN TOUNDRA. IT APPEARED TO BE A BURGUNDY COLOR. I LOOKED AT SWATCHES AND FOUND SEVERAL WOMEN WITH MY SKIN TONE AND IT LOOK AWESOME ON THEM! ON ME? NOT SO MUCH. I LOOKED LIKE I WENT GOTH... NOTHING WRONG WITH GOTH BUT IT IS NOT THE LOOK I AM GOING FOR. I THINK I WILL TRY IT ON TOP OF A NUDE LIPSTICK AND SEE HOW THAT LOOKS. ALSO, THIS FORMULA IS EXTREMELY DRYING...ADD A LITTLE CHAPSTICK BEFORE HAND. SWATCH BELOW:

I STILL HAVE MY URBAN DECAY BRIDE TO BE BOX TO POST ABOUT BUT WANTED TO TAKE SOME TIME TO ACTUALLY USE THE PRODUCTS BEFORE REVIEW. ALSO, I GOT A STILA HOLIDAY LIP GLOSS TRIO TO REVIEW. SO AMAZING FOR $12!!! STAY TUNED...
