At the end of April, Sephora will be having a beauty insiders sale starting April 26th-May 6th for Rouge, May 2nd-6th for VIB and Beauty Insiders. The sale is 20% off for Rouge, 15% off for VIB, and 10% off for Beauty Insiders. I have majorly cut back on makeup and skincare purchases in the last 12 months and did not make Rouge, which was a reached goal of mine! As a result of cutbacks, makeup fever has caught me! Here's what's in my massive cart, which needs serious dwindling down as I'm checking for dupes or some alternatives.

Lay your eyes on this beauty.

This is the Pat McGrath Mothership V Bronze Seduction Eyeshadow Palette, my first Mothership Palette. Before purchasing this, I has my eye on it but the price ($125) gave me a faint feeling every time I looked at it. Eventually, I said f*ck it and bought it impulsively. I have had this thing for so long but wanted to take my time reviewing it because when I first got it, I must admit, I wasn't that impressed. First impressions mean a lot, but taking your time can pay off. Drool for a bit, and then on to the review.

Peter Thomas Roth has released a line of cannabis sativa seed oil based products guaranteed to soothe irritated skin and keep you moisturized. I was able to try the Green Releaf Therapeutic Sleep Cream Skin Protectant courtesy of the brand and Brandbacker and am now ready to share my thoughts on it.

Lipstick Queen has released a line of Rear View Mirror Lip Lacquers, a new lipstick with the shine of a gloss, the vibrancy of a lipstick, and the moisture of a lip balm. I have four colors I'll be showing off:

• Little Nude Coupe: pinky beige nude
• Joy Ride Java: subtle cocoa
• Berry Tacoma: bright raspberry
• Low Rider Raisin: deep plum wine

The last thing I need is another sticky lip gloss that makes my lips look larger than they already are. Good news! This ain't one of them! The Becca Glow Lip Glosses are not sticky at all, smell like a vanilla cupcake with just enough frosting, and is flattering to my full, luscious lips. I have been using these since the summer when I want an easy go-to, I only have 10 minutes makeup. They tick all the boxes for what this picky lip gloss person needs in a gloss. I'm showing off the shades Chocolate Geode and Rose Gold, which were gifted to me by my lovely and generous gal pal.
