Illamasqua Powder Blusher: Excite.

Hello Beauties! I have a short story for you guys, when I went to Sephora to get the Pantone blush duo I walked straight to that because I knew that's why I went in there and wanted to go in and out with just that.

As I was attempting to walk straight out of the store I spotted this beauty out of my peripheral! The Sephora near me does not have an Illamasqua section so I was wondering what this was doing there. I actually looked around the store in hopes that there was more Illamasqua but this blush was the only product because it was featured in the color of the year section. I quickly grabbed one of the last two they had left and headed to check out, again.

Sephora + Pantone Universe Color of the Year Blush Duo.

Hello Beauties! You ever just see something and from that moment on you can't think about anything but that until you get your hands on it? Well this product is exactly that for me. The Sephora + Pantone Universe Color of the Year Blush Duo was love at first site for me. I love the color of the blushes, the packaging and even the box it came it! I knew that Sephora was having a 15% off sale so I waited to purchase it but I tell you it was a hard, long wait knowing it was right there and I couldn't get it yet.

*Price: 26.00

*Size: .38 oz (each blush)

*Where to buy: Sephora stores and online

Sephora Friends and Family Haul!

Hello Beauties, I know I have to be about the last person to do this but I had to wait for my favorite item I got from this haul. I also added the one thing I got from MAC Winter and Ice Holiday Collection.

Sephora Anti Bacterial Daily Makeup Brush Cleaner - This is the one thing I can say I actually needed. I was using ELF's daily brush cleaner and I said once it ran out I would not be re-purchasing due to the smell. I'm so happy I decided to try this one because it smells so much better.

Kat Von D True Romance Eye Shadow Palette in Angeles - I had been eyeing this forever and I seen it was on sale for like $15 and I was like why not?

Tarte Amazonian Clay Long-wear Blushes in Tipsy and Natural Beauty - This sale was the perfect opportunity to get these because they retail for $25, but they are really long lasting. I love the one I already have and wanted to get more.

NARS DanMari All About Cheeks Palette - Originally I was not going to get this because I've heard so many bad things about Orgasm and Super Orgasm so with my 1st order I just ordered Desire, but once I saw this in person it was LOVE at first sight. It was out of stock for a while and luckily it came back in stock before the sale was over. Needless to say I returned Desire and I am so happy I got this. I love all the colors (besides Super Orgasm, only because I do not like glitter on my face) and even though these are not full size I feel like this was one heck of a steal.

MAC Paint Pot in Morning Frost - This was the one and only item I was remotely interested in. It reminds me of the paint pot form of one of my favorite e/s All That Glitters.
