Sephora Favorites Beauty Oil Essentials UPDATED



 This month is going to be a pretty big beauty/skincare month for me because I want to invest in some products I've had my eyes on, one of which is the Sephora beauty oils set. I purchased the set yesterday and I was hesitant because it's a lot for a set that I'm probably only going to like 50% of. Oils are very personable however not all of them will work for everyone.

 I've provided a list of the oils and what my initials thoughts are/if I already like or dislike them.




 - 1.7 oz Boscia MakeUp-BreakUp Cool Cleansing Oil-     Have not tried.

- 0.5 oz Nude Skincare Perfect Cleansing Oil-        Its light but did not remove all of my makeup, would not purchase. UPDATE- I've grown to really like the almond smell, I use it before my purity cleanser and it feels nice on my skin. It's one of those products that's not a must have but it's nice to have.

- 1 oz Clarins Tonic Body Treatment Oil-     It smells very herbaly and is ok moisturizing wise, would not purchase.

- 0.5 oz L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil-              Have not tried, it smells ok. Wish I got a bigger sample....UPDATED- It smells lovely. It has a fresh sweet almond scent. It's moisturizing but I find body butters from the body shop do a better job for much less money. I think this is a nice luxury product for those that don't have really dry skin.

- 0.5 oz josie Maran 100% Pure Argan Oil Light-   Not a fan of the feeling nor that they took out crucial components that gave it the liquid gold look and silky texture, it works ok for my 9 month old to prevent cradle cap however I would only repurchase the original.

- 0.23 oz Tarte Oure Maracuja Oil-           LOVE, currently using my old bottle still.I have a full review up already.

- 0.5 oz Ole Henriksen Pure Truth Youth Activating Oil-             Have not tried however I heard it smells like fish oil so I'm very hesitant.... 


- 0.34 oz Nude Skincare ProGenius Treatment Oil-             Tried once last night at 7pm and it is very greasy feeling and you will look oil slicked after until you go to sleep and wake up the next day, my skin does feel VERY soft however I have not made up my mind. (I need to make sure I don't break out). UPDATED- I adore this, it has not broken me out and it does give me a grease face however I wake up with the softest skin. This is a great oil to use when your skin is feeling very dull and dehydrated. This would be lovely after using a mask.

- 0.05 oz Bite Beauty Cinnamon Lip Plumping Oil-           Hate, the plumping components are irritating, it didn't look like anything special on and it didn't smell very nice I doubt I'll ever use it.

- 0.85 oz Bumble and bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil-     UPDATED- It works nice however I'm not sure how much I like it yet.

- 0.85 oz Alterna Bamboo Smooth Kendi Dry Oil Mist-    I've tried another spray from this brand and it's ok but just sooooo perfumy and the other one left my hair looking a bit too shiny with a oily feel. I know this one is strongly fragranted so I'm expecting similar results.

- 0.5 oz Josie Maran Argan Oil Hair Serum-                 I really like this hair oil, I probably wouldn't purcahse is because I think its overpriced plus it has a herbaly smell but I like to use it before I straighten my hair.



    If I think any products are fantastic I will do a full review however I buy beauty and skincare products every month and I don't always talk about everything but I do try to share my favorites.


 I did test out the new Stila liners and I will have up a review on those soon so keep an eye out!
For now I will say they are similar the the Mac black based mineral eyeshadows. Not in feel but appearance wise.
