Love the idea behind this gift. At first glance I thought $20 bucks for one lipstick and four little chocolates seemed overpriced but given the former already has a US$16.00 price tag paying just a bit more for a beautiful packaging and some bites of fancy deliciousness feels worthy.
Not interested.
This is a cute idea – I like visiting the Maison du Chocolat that’s under the Louvre. They sell the most awesome chocolate pearls for making hot chocolate…
Cute concept! But French chocolate though? Nope.
😉
Oh wow, this actually has chocolate in it. Ha!
I know, right? I was thinking they were lip balms or something before I read all the way through.
(That being said, I’m in love.)
Christine, is the lip colour available on its own (permanent or LE?) or only in this set?
Sephora has it listed individually as well!
The lipstick is a gorgeous color and is a creamy matte stain. The price of $16 is very reasonable and the size of the tube is thicker than most. I have a few shades and love each one. Fig and Mulberry are my favorites.
LoL.. I initially thought the chocolates were eyeshadows in the shape of chocolates. I’m rather disappointed they are not actually.
I had the opposite reaction. I was like “ARE THOSE REALLY CHOCOLATE?!?!” And then I was like, “YES!!!!”
Very cute!
Or you could just buy a box of chocolate and a lipgloss separately, and actually get to pick out both. This baffles me.
Oh my, chocolates and red lipstick! Life doesn’t get any better than this. Except wouldn’t it be awesome if the lipstick was chocolate flavored,too? yummy…..that lippie would be gone in no time 🙂
Something about it is not jelling with me. Maybe if they were two different boxes? Cute concept, but somehow odd to me; and I’m usually a sucker for gimmicky stuff like this. I’d rather skip the chocolate and get extra gloss 😉
Hmmm…lip color and pralines? They had me at “hello”.
At first this seemed way too expensive but then I realized the lip product is $16 and the pralines are worth $12.50 so $20 is actually a good deal. So a good gift, but not something I’d buy myself. Also having the makeup and food so close (and selling food at sephora) is a bit weird.
perfect valentine’s day gift for a makeup lover.
I think this is a great gift for a girlfriend!
This is so cute, and I like the mulberry color. How does it get better than chocolate and makeup?
I kind of like the idea of this, but like other people, something about it isn’t sitting well with me. Maybe it just seems weird to me to buy chocolate at Sephora? I’m thinking I’ll pass.
After seeing the in-store damage after Sephora’s last 20% event (boxed product being opened and swatched, sample displays smashed and looking absolutely nasty) the thought of Sephora selling something edible puts a nasty taste in my mouth. I’m taking a pass on it too.
Maybe i’m in the minority, but I love this idea!! Quality chocolate alongside a sensual, longwearing shade of lipstick sounds so pampering and decadent. I have to agree though that sephora selling food does seem a bit strange. I might have some concerns about freshness. I think this would have been even nicer alongside a more luxuriously packaged lipstick as sephora brand doesn’t exactly strike me as particularly special…maybe A for idea and a B for execution?
I hope the entire package comes sealed in plastic because chocolate can pick up the fragrance/scent of anything that its around affecting the taste of the chocolate.
I think this is a cute idea! As a makeup junkie I would think it was a great V-day gift from a BF. 😉
But i game for all lipstick shades except brown so it would make it a easy gift. Some one that likes only a few colour families might not like this product.
Actually, this is a good deal as well as a cute little Vday gift for a friend. Some years ago, I went into La Maison du Chocolat on Madison Avenue and I was shocked to discover that the chocolates back then were about $100/lb or something quite shocking. i left empty-handed
I worked at Sephora over the holidays and we actually got this for New Year’s. The lip color is gorgeous and has a really great formula (and the chocolates weren’t so bad either).
Interesting concept with actual chocolates in the box.. 😀 .. but I think the box could have been better with few more products than just a lip color.. 😛
I like the idea, probably wouldn’t buy it for myself but would love to receive as a gift. Unfortunately I don’t think its something my valentine would ever think of/discover, he’s only been in a Sephora once, with me…and I think it was a bit overwhelming for him 🙂
Will this be available in Canadian stores as well?
The stores don’t seem to have this product, and online rep had no clue as to what I was speaking about. Is this an old promo or is no available in all stores and online? Tha know you.
Bought 3 of these at my local Sephora today (one for myself and two to gift to my best friends). The chocolates are yummy and so is the lip color. I actually called my store first to ask if these were in stock. They weren’t even out on display yet, so mine were pulled from the back and held for me. It did feel a little weird purchasing something edible from Sephora but I felt pretty confident that my items were sanitary. My advice to anyone interested in purchasing this set is to call your local store to confirm they have them and then have it held. It’s worth the price in my opinon 🙂
