Recent Purchases: Sephora, MAC, Drugstore



I haven't made beauty related purchases in so long it feels like! But the past two weeks, I've been picking up a few things here and there, and I thought I'd share it all with you! First up, drugstore.


Suave Dry Shampoo, Suave Dry Shampoo, Suave Touchable Finish Hairspray, Aveeno Positively Radiant Skin Brightening Daily Scrub, Wet n Wild Color Icon Nail Color in Rockin' Rubies and Cost Is No Issue

The only reason I bought 2 dry shampoos is because Suave was on sale 3 for $5 at CVS, and I figured I'd grab two of what I need. I would have picked up three, but there were only 2 left! I've never used the Touchable Finish Hairspray before (well, I never use hairspray as it is), but I'm hoping it works out well!

I used to use Aveeno's Positively Radiant Skin Brightening Daily Scrub when I stayed with my family a couple summers ago, and I really liked it. My Aveeno Smart Essentials Daily Detoxifying Scrub recently ran out, so I thought I'd go back to old faithful! You should have seen my jubilation when I saw the Wet n Wild Ice Baby collection display at a local CVS. Since they weren't on sale, I only grabbed two, but they all looked so pretty and promising!

I also bought a pack of tampons, but whatever ;)



MAC Brush Cleanser

While at the mall with a good friend this past weekend, we stopped by MAC to lurk around and be annoyed by sales associates. I've been putting off purchasing a Brush Cleanser for MONTHS now, and finally took the splurge…all $13 of it. LOL! I can be so cheap sometimes. I've always shampooed my brushes, but since it's so time consuming I've been slacking. Hopefully this pink puppy will force me to be more diligent!



MUFE Mat Velvet + Matifying Foundation in No. 40, YSL Rouge Volupté Lipstick in Nude Beige, Sephora Collection Flashy Liner Waterproof in Flashy Ultra Green, Tarte SmolderEYES Amazonian Clay Liner Collection, Jack Black Balm Squad Lip Balm Quad, Kat Von D True Romance Eyeshadow Palette in Angeles, NARS Danmari All About Cheeks Palette



I haven't used anything but Jack Black lip balms. It's only been a week, but I must say they are AMAZING. I don't need to constantly reapply. It healed my lips. HEALED. MUFE Mat Velvet Foundation is my first high end liquid foundation, so I hope it was worth the splurge. I already have a YSL Rouge Volupté lipstick in Extreme Coral and love it, so I thought I'd pick up another one--but this time something more wearable!

This NARS blush palette is my first experience with NARS blushes, so I hope they live up to the hype. A Kat Von D eyeshadow palette for $12 after reduced pricing and a coupon code? I was sold. I'm a sucker for extreme value, which is why I couldn't pass up Tarte's SmolderEYES liner collection. It comes with SIX shades for less than the price of TWO!

I am very much excited to try out all these products. I'll try to post reviews and swatches once I've thoroughly tested them! What did you order from Sephora's Friends & Family sale? Any recent MAC or drugstore purchases? I want to know!
