Hello everyone,
I hope your weekend is off to a good start. I'm happy just having a weekend off to myself even if I'm not doing anything.
Sephora VIB sale started couple days ago. There was some trouble with their website but eventually I managed to order some more stuff but for now, these are a few products I picked up in store.
Here's the new VIB bag...yeah another bag but I like the design though. I wished they would switch things up a bit and give us something different for a change.
Anastasia Brow Powder Duo ($23) - I chose the color Ebony, a deep neutral dark brown.
Anastasia Brush #12 ($18) - I've been wanting a good brown brush. This one has a spoolie attached which is quite convenient. The bristles aren't scratchy but firm. I tried it the other day and I'm not sure if I like it yet. I find it a bit too thin for my liking. I'm gonna keep trying it out for the next few days and see if I can get use to it.
Fresh Soy Face Cleanser ($15) - this cleanser had a pretty high rating so I hope it doesn't disappoint. I picked the 1.7 oz to try out.
Jack Black Lip Balm ($7.50) - My favorite lip balm because it has the perfect texture. Not too thick or thin and non-sticky. Keeps my lips moisturized and comfortable for hours. I was gonna get the holiday trio pack but I didn't care for the mint flavor so I decided to just get these individually. I got Lemon & Chamomile and Black Tea & Blackberry.
L'Occitane Shea Butter Delights ($16) - I like their hand creams but I was particularly interested in the 100% shea butter cream in this set. It's been getting cold and my skin is feeling dryer. I wanted to try out the 100% shea butter for my cuticles and dry hands. I'm still debating if I should get the 5 oz tin but dang it's so expensive.
Sephora Perfection Mist Airbrush Foundation Light ($28) - I was in the market for a new high-end foundation. After doing some research, this Sephora foundation had pretty good reviews and the price won't break the bank so I just had to give it a try.
I redeemed 100 points for this Origins Ginzin eye cream.
Oh and the other day, my friends got me this L'Occitane hand cream and lip balm set. I was thrilled. It has a nice vanilla scent but the lip balm kinda taste like soap, haha.
I stopped by Walgreens yesterday to stock up on cough drops...Ughh...I'm sick and tired of this cough that just won't go away.
While I was there I spotted these new Revlon Ultra HD lipstick and lip lacquers. They were on BOGO 50% off sale. I was intrigued and the fancy name made me more curious to try. The packaging for the lipstick is meh a little disappointing, but the lipgloss looked nice!

What did you get from the VIB sale?
I wish, I WISH we had such sales here at Sephora...!!! Sephora in Singapore like all other beauty shops do not have an exchange policy for products that have been opened even though unused! So you gotta be real sure once you've bought something! I really would love that anastasia brow powder duo! Totally will get it when I get the chance, we don't have that brand here yet in store!
ReplyDeletewow that sucks you can't return a product you don't like. Sorry you don't have sales like we do :(. I plan on reviewing the brow powder.
DeleteCurious to hear your thoughts on the ebony brow powder duo, I've been eyeing it but unsure if it's too brown for my liking. That 100% Shea Butter is pretty amazing! Sadly I lost mine lol! It's hard to keep track of that little tin around my kids.
ReplyDeleteIt's a very dark brown, almost black but not quite. Will do a review and swatches. I find brow powders the easiest the use. I'm really liking that 100% shea butter already.
