Sephora VIB Sale Mini-Haul

Needed new setting powder, came out with five things. I guess it could have been worse? 

I had originally purchased the new Bare Minerals side-by-side matte/glowy finish powders, but returned it this morning. I could never get any product onto a brush - and I tried it with all three of my powder brushes. It felt very dry, and seemed like a waste to keep. This Laura Mercier powder is very buttery and has a good amount of coverage, but I've only worn it for a day.

The polish is Formula X in Ignite. I've been searching for a not-too-brown, not-too-purple red for two weeks with no success until today. Sephora's website calls it a "smoking red" and that makes me immediately like it more.

This Smashbox lipstick is so so so so creamy AND LASTS FOR HOURS. AND FADES EVENLY. Can you tell I'm obsessed? I think I'm going to have to get another. Or two. Or maybe three? (No. Not three. That's excessive.)
The color reminds me of two of my fave discontinued lipsticks - Laura Mercier's Pink Grape (but this one is a softer, bluer tone) and Prescriptives Athena (The very first makeup I ever bought with my babysitting money. I couldn't wear it out of the house though, because it was, well, red and I was 12.) It's amazing, and I already took all other lip products out of my purse because I'm so confident that I'm only going to love it more.
