makeup and beauty lovers rejoice! the Sephora shopping event is upon us. if you don’t know what I’m talking about, here’s the scoop: twice a year Sephora allows you to purchase all of your makeup and beauty favorites at a discount. the first event is in April (the sale is running now thru the 13th). the second event is held in November. if you are a Beauty Insider, you will receive 10% off of your purchase thru 4/12. if you are VIB or VIB Rouge, you get 15% off of your purchase thru 4/13. this is the best time to stock up on all of your favorites and get those more expensive products at a discount.
there were a few things that i needed and a few new products that i wanted to try so i placed my order a few days ago. they are due to arrive this week.
here’s what i purchased:
Too Faced Better Than Sex Waterproof Mascara | Ouai Texturizing Hair Spray | Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Firenze | Bumble and Bumble Surf FoamSpray Blow Dry | Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara | Sunday Riley Power Couple Duo: Total Transformation Kit | Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Trooper | Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Soft Brown | Kat Von D Tattoo Liner in Mad Max Brown
the tattoo liners and brow wiz, i have had before. i am most excited try the rest of the products. i am trying to get my skin care routine perfected. i have heard nothing but great things about the Sunday Riley products, so i thought i would give them a try. the Too Faced Mascara is one of the best mascaras out there right now. i was so excited to hear that they came out with a waterproof version. a few of my favorite youtube vloggers rave about the Marc Jacobs mascara so i thought i would give it a try. it is supposedly comparable to the Better Than Sex mascara. the Ouai Texturizing Hairspray is also getting a lot of hype on youtube. i usually use Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray or Amika Undone Texture Spray. those two brands are amazing, but i cannot wait to try the Ouai spray! Bumble and Bumble products always get great reviews, so im sure i will love the surf foam spray. in the reviews i read on Sephora.com, it is supposed to give flat limp hair volume. i need volume, so i hope thats true. i already have one of the Stila liquid lipsticks and i love it. this formulation rivals the Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks. the color that i bought is available to VIB Rouge members. if you have it, let me know if you love the color.
