Sephora Haul

     I hope everyone is having a a good week! I was planning to post a FOTD today but my eyebrows look AWFUL (practically Wolverine status here, I'm not exaggerating) and I can't bear to post any pictures, haha. I'll get them done tomorrow and post a FOTD then, I guess!

     I got a lot of Sephora gift cards for Christmas, especially from my mom since she had no idea what to get me this year. I used some of them  right after the holidays when they were offering 20% off sale items. I can't beat a good bargain, so I picked out some things I've been wanting to get.



     One of my favorite things about shopping for makeup is all of the awesome packaging that the products come in. Everything is so pretty and it makes me want to buy more and more! 

Here's what I got:
  • Kat Von D True Romance Eyeshadow Palette
  • Urban Decay 24/7 Eye Pencil Duo; Ransom and Burbon
  • Philosophy Have a Cherry Christmas High-Flavor Lip Shine
  • Smashbox Studio Pop for Lips
  • BareMinerals The Star Treatment Eyeshadow Palette




       I'm so excited about all of these purchases ;__; Everything I bought was on sale to begin with and 20% off, too, which justifies my splurging. This sale was a great way for me to explore some new brands and all of the stuff I got has been wonderful. I'll definitely be writing separate reviews for the majority of these products, because I'm impressed with all of it.

FOTD will be coming soon, my lovelies! Cannot wait to get my brows back into shape :)

Love,
Izzy

Haulin' at Lush: The Bargain Edition

It's very fitting that the first real post I'm going to publish is a haul, especially because we're still so close to Christmas!

I was in NYC on the 26th with a good friend of mine and I had heard about the BOGO going on at Lush. We braved the terrible weather and hurried down to the store on Herald Square, and I was not disappointed with what I found! Everything I bought was included in their sale. :)

The Goodies! 

What made the day even more exciting was the reply from Lush that was waiting for me when i got home and checked my Twitter :D

A pleasant surprise!


All in all, I got:
  • Twilight shower gel, 250 mL
  • Ponche shower gel, 250 mL
  • Bubblebeard bubble bar
  • Magic Wand bubble bar
  • Golden Wonder bath bomb x2 (I used one already... it was heavenly!)
  • Butterball bath bomb x2
  • Cinders bath bomb x2
  • Crackersnap bath bomb
  • Dirty solid gorilla perfume



 All of the bath bombs (minus Crackersnap) were in two gift sets that I bought because they were cheaper in the gift packaging than buying individually! They were in the Mr. Frosty Gift.

The workers at Lush were telling me I HAD to get Crackersnap because it was available individually at their store only. Even though it was $10 it'll definitely be worth it because I'm sure it can last me about four baths.

So excited to put these bath bombs to use!

I'm pumped about the bubble bars, too. Using them is going to make me feel like a kid again. They remind me of magic wands! :D

I'm especially excited about the perfume! The "Dirty" scent ironically smells so fresh :)

 I'm still very new to Lush, so buying new products with such a great deal going on definitely gave me the chance to try out some of their stuff (even though the majority of it is from their limited edition holiday line- who cares, it was buy one get one FREE!!) I spent about $65 in all, which is a STEAL for all the stuff I got.

Do you want an individual review of any of these products specifically? Drop me a comment and I'll have no problem about writing about it! Did you pick up anything during Lush's BOGO madness?
