Very late Christmas Haul

I got a few different Sephora gift cards for Christmas this year and wanted to quickly share the things I picked up!
I splurged and finally bought the Urban Decay Naked palette. After standing there for what felt like forever staring at the original version and the Naked 2 palette. Swatching like a mad woman. I finally decided to start with the OG. And I have been using it non-stop!
I picked up one the tarte Amazonian clay blush in "Natural". I have heard nothing but rave reviews about these puppies. I ended up purchasing what may be considered a more unusual color. It's a bright almost cherry toned blush that really gives that winter cold flushed look to the cheeks and I don't have any thing else like it in my collection. These are highly pigmented and do have great staying power like everyone says. I'm sure I will get more of these at some point.
I've looked at and passed up Benefit's eye Bright pencil for years and finally got it with my gift card. Not much to say about this yet, it's my first venture into using a flesh toned pencil on the waterline so I don't have much to compare it to.
Lastly, I got another tube of MAC's Rebel lipstick which I already own so I went and swapped it at Nordstrom for an eyeshadow in Coopering. I have been lusting after this since watching Nikkie Tutorials look inspired by the new Tom Ford makeup ad (one of my favorite looks of late)
Thanks for reading!
