I love this shade, it works great with brown, hazel eyes

It completes your look when you use it browns and greens

It is pretty Long Lasting.

It is so easy to use

Also it looks forever to remove it completely from the lids

it does not wear off  and no smudges

 

 

 

If we compare both Sephora and Collection 2000 eye liners we see that

 

Both are long lasting

Both of are difficult to remove from the lids

On Sephora liner you need to be careful while using if you use a bit pressure if might sometimes smudges

even though Sephora Liner Called Teal Blue it is more close to Turquoise Blue

while Collection 2000 is giving us the actual teal green colour / shade

i have been using Sephora one for a long time now and it is still fresh as the day i purchased

it did not dry or it got difficult to get the shade on my lids

Don’t have your friend’s current address? Waited until the last minute? Just got a gift from a friend who wasn’t on your list? Sephora has made it easier than ever to give the perfect gift this holiday season with the launch of the First Data℠ eGift Social℠ solution Social, a new Facebookä application that allows clients to send and receive real Sephora merchandise and gift cards in an instant.

“The launch of the eGift Social program allows our more than 1 million Sephora fans to give real gifts or gift cards even if they can’t get to one of our stores,” said Bridget Dolan, Sephora's Vice President of Interactive Media. “With eGift Social, Sephora is leveraging the real-time social media experience to bring its signature, sophisticated and fun shopping experience to the client wherever, whenever.”

To access eGift Social, log on to www.facebook.com/Sephora and select the Instant Gifts tab (http://www.facebook.com/Sephora?v=app_10339498918 ).  There you will be able to choose from a variety of fun, fabulous products or select a Sephora Gift Card, all without ever leaving your Facebook page.  Sephora has selected gifts that are fan favorites and are sure to get your friends talking, including Philosophy’s Hope in a Jar, Benefit’s A Little Bit of Bad Gal, or even NARS Blush in Super Orgasm.

Once you have selected and purchased your gift, it will show up instantly on your friend’s Facebook wall and can be redeemed for the actual item online at www.sephora.com or in store*.   Transactions are completed safely and securely online through a partnership with Bank of America Merchant Services, for a seamless online shopping experience. And best of all,  Sephora’s gifts are covered under the Sephora Return Policy, so products can easily be exchanged or returned, and the gift cards never expire or lose their value. Fun, instantaneous, and worry-free gifting this holiday season - courtesy of Sephora.

Sephora is encouraging you to be more naughty than nice this holiday with Beauty Envy, a fun, new interactive Facebook App that allows you to keep, swap and even steal the most spectacular virtual beauty gifts of the season. This free App will have you and your friends vying for items from the hottest brands, including tarte, TARINA TARANTINO, bareMinerals, Laura Mercier and Hourglass. And as a reward, Sephora is offering players a free gift with any online purchase and a chance to win the real version of their virtual gift – one winner a day for 30 days.

Sephora worked with Rally, a specialty unit of Universal McCann focused on social media, to create the new App.  Download the free App beginning November 23, 2010 directly from Sephora’s Facebook page and immediately start receiving virtual gifts! First, play to find out what your virtual beauty gift is from one of more than 200 coveted items randomly selected by Sephora. The gift can be kept or swapped the following day when you have a chance to virtually exchange your gift again. Sephora’s gift to all who play is a promo code for a free, limited edition tokidoki beauty tote bag with any online Sephora purchase, while supplies last. This reusable tote features the criminally cute designs from the cult tokidoki beauty collection presented exclusively at Sephora.

Next, share the App with your friends via Facebook, and that’s when the fun really begins! The Beauty Envy App tracks the gifts your friends have received and allows you to view them by clicking on “My Beauty Envy Friend.” From there, you can decide if you want to keep what you have, swap it for a new random selection from Sephora, or if you’ve got beauty envy, steal something you like even better from one of your friends. That’s right! You can take your friend’s virtual gift, but be careful; one of your friends could be ready to swipe yours as well!

The Sephora Facebook Beauty Envy Game will also show you which virtual beauty gift has been stolen the most that day and allow you to browse and “Like” your favorites. By Liking your favorite products, your friends will know what you really want from Sephora this season. After all, the best way to avoid having real beauty envy is to ask for you Like, your friends will thank you.
