Sephora F&F and VIB Rouge sale!!


It's that time of year again!! The fall is always an exciting time for make up junkies because it's always the time for Sephora sales.  Yes, sales!  Sales don't happen at Sephora (or like ANY make up counter unless you have a special coupon, ha) often--in fact only about 2-3 times a year.  

Many thanks to Lane for giving me a promo coupon for the Friends & Family sale! Don't fret if you didn't get a chance to get a F&F coupon because Sephora is having their VIB/VIB Rouge sale the 2nd week in November.  Since I received this 20% off from Lane in an online coupon and a in-store coupon, I decided to pick up some of my favorite items, and also get some things I've been wanting to try for a while!  Here's what I picked up in two embarrassingly large hauls...


haul 1:
1) Benefit Holiday blush palette (Holiday collection)
2) Hourglass Ambient Blush palette (Limited Edition)
3) NARS All Day Luminous Powder Foundation (New!)
4) Two Faced La Belle Carousel (Holiday collection)
 

haul 2:
1) St. Tropez Self Tanner starting kit (A new obsession!!)
2) Anastasia Brow Wiz in Taupe (holy grail!)
3) MUFE HD foundation in 120 (has been on my wish list forever)
4) Marc Jacobs Beauty Face Brush #2 (NO WORDS, amazing!!!)
5) Ole Henrikson face wipes in Nurture Me MakeUp Removing and Clean Truth Brightening


 Ambient Blush Palette



 Benefit blush palette

 

This brush is so dense and it blends any foundation in flawlessly! I would never pay full price for it, but with a discount I can't deny. :)

It's FALL!!


HELLOOO! It's been so long, guys.  For that, I apologize!  But, I'm back! And I have some really exciting things planned.  For now, since Fall is here, I thought I would show you some of my favorites for the season!  You know the drill. :-)

Skin:

1. Aveeno Stress Relief Foaming Bath - one of my favorites for fall, and I do love my baths!  
2. Murad Clarifying Toner - with the weather back and forth, it has my skin going crazy.  My t-zone is oily, and my cheeks are dry... this helps even it out and keeps my skin fresh!
3. Nuance Firming Neck and Chest Balm - because I can always justify adding another step to my beloved skin care routine ... this is one serious moisturizer, and I love using it on my dry hands this season!
4. Ultra Repair Instant Oatmeal Mask - soothing, hydrating, calming... you need this.  
5. Tarte Maracuja Oil - helps even out my fall combination skin.  Oil counteracts oil... this stuff is awesome!
6. MAC Fix + - I wrote about this product a couple posts back.  I was a little on the fence, but not I can't get enough!  It revitalizes everything about dull, dry skin! I love it. 
7. Soap & Glory Smoothie Star Body Buttercream - because everyone needs a nourishing body lotion that smells like vanilla and other yummy stuffs. 

Make Up:

8. Lip Liners - in Venom, Most Natural, and Naked2 - I love filling these in and wearing them as my lip color, not just lip liners.  They stay on forever, and they are perfect colors for fall. 
9. Bite Agave Lip Mask in Champagne - An everlasting lip balm, with a hint of pink shimmer, perfect for the colder weather. 
10. Essie nailpolish in Bahama Mama - this is been on my nails for almost three weeks straight! 
11. YSL Touche Clat - a hydrating foundation, my top pick for the colder months.  This is a pricey foundation, so I only have it in one shade, and I cannot WAIT to pick it back up here in a few weeks when I'm completely back to my normal fall/winter pale self (woo hoo)!
12. Lip Colors - Bite Beauty High Pigment Pencil in Heritage, Sephora Collection Rouge Shine #46, and MAC lipstick in Craving - because these shades are perfect for fall and they are beauuuutiful.

That's all I have for your tonight.  What are you obsessing over this fall??

xoxo, Molly
