For this year's birthday gift from Sephora I got the Marc Jacobs Lip & Eye Duo!

The eye part is the Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Eyeliner in Blacquer 42 (regular price $25). This is very pigmented, creamy, twist up, black liner.

The lip part is the Le Marc Lip Creme Lipstick in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang 216 (regular price $30). On the website the color is described as "baked rose" and I would describe it as a very deep warm toned pink with a slightly satin finish. Very pigmented and creamy, I can see myself wearing this a lot!

Has anyone used these before? Any thoughts, reviews, opinions?

I'm really excited for these!

I am wearing the lipstick today. I love it..it's a shade that will suit a lot of skin tones. it's creamy but stays for a long time...very long time. it appears matte but is very comfortable on the lips. I love the liner too specially for the waterline. I just am annoyed that these are too tiny and this year Sephora does not have anything extra for vibrouge. I know, its free gift and I shouldn't complain but they used to have little something extra for rouge. these products themselves are quite nice though!

Thanks, Aru! I was quite surprised with how small the products were when I pulled them out of the box but I can't complain about something that was free (:

Alexis I chose this too for my birthday gift! Love the lipstick formula but I doubt I would buy the full size. I cringe buying 20+ dollars lipsticks... But 30? *cringe lol

Livi, I doubt I'd buy the full size lipstick either especially since this is the kind of color that every brand makes lol.

I'm debating whether to get this or the Fresh set... So many choices!
