I don't know about yall but I had been DYING to get my hands on the 2014 Sephora Favorites: Superstars! I have a rule though that I cannot buy anything before Christmas. Now while I usually break it to buy a dress or something fun I'm very good about staying away from Sephora. Luckily it's a 30 minute drive that turns into 45 around Christmas. Also I know my default is always to ask for gift cards for Sephora so I always know I have a little something coming my way!
This year was definitely the hardest! I mean have you seen the Superstar Kit?!?! It's literally the superstars! Just look at the beauty!
As expected I walked away with quite a few gift cards to my guilty pleasure and couldn't wait to spend them! So casually I started online shopping immediately! I added that kit to my cart so fast you could hardly blink. I looked around to make sure there weren't any other kits available I was interested as well. Nothing I just had to have so I skipped over to the gift sets. I just love this time of year because there are so many "gift sizes" so you can try new things you wouldn't want to buy full size!
So then I saw it! The Elizabeth and James Nirvana rollerball set. Both the Black and White for $20. I had gotten the White as a gift for rewards several months back and fell in love and had been dying to try the black! So I obviously snatched that as well. Then came the hard part: picking out samples and promos.
I had spent $100 so I picked out something for the 100 points spend. Normally I save these up but I was feeling crazy so I spent it at the 100! I got bumble and bumble thickening spray because I'M OBSESSED! I love this stuff so why not get a travel size?
Then I got Laura Mercier smooth finish flawless fluide as my promo. I'm loving what I see so far! Then for samples I wasn't crazy about any of them so I just selected a few random things. I got two perfume samples: one being Chloe which I also got in the Superstars then I got one called "Alien" by Thierry Mugler. Lastly I got some foundation which I thought said medium tone but was actually formulated for dark skin tones....so I gave that to a coworker. (I pay very close attention clearly!)
