I have a few hundred points "burning in my pocket" for months. I want to redeem on items that I really want to try. Whenever I visit the stores, the 500 point gift just does not seem that attractive to me. So I started to "stalk" online as they have updated gifts pretty much on a weekly or bi-monthly basis.
LaVanila The Healthy Deordorant in Vanilla Grapefruit
Too Faced Beauty Editor Darlings Set
Too Faced 3-way Lash-lining Tool
Ever since I got my Too Faced Chocolate Solei bronzer, I have been very impressed by their product and decided to try more items.
The set includes: Lashgasm Mascara, Insurance Anti-crease eye shadow primer, gloss volumizing lip gloss, Insurance Smoothing Anti-Feathering Lip Primer and Primed & Poreless Skin Smoothing Face Primer
I have been using the Urban Decay Eye primer potion and am pretty happy with it. But you know, always want to branch out and try other brands. So decided on this set so I can try this and the face primer. My current face primer is the Benefit Pore-professional.
This 3-way lash lining tool looks pretty interesting. Claims to do lash emphasizing, tight lining and eye-lining. So a 3-in-one tool.
You can flip the head the other way to have just dots. I think I will use that the most to just dot on the lower lash line to make my lashes look fuller. The staying power is pretty impressive. As I was just swatching, tried to see if it smudges and it doesn't. Need eye makeup remover to rub it off so hopefully it will stay put on my lash line as I have a bad habit of touching or rubbing my eyes.
My birthday gift, a mini-duo of the Fresh sugar lip balm
100 point gift: Lavanila Vanilla Perfume
500 point gift: Nars gift set which includes Blush in Orgasm, Velvet matte lip pencil, Pore refining primer & Smudge proof eyeshadow base
I have wanted to try the highly-raved orgasm blush for the longest time. I have accumulated so many blushes that I cannot justify in buying another high end blush.
Mystery gift bag
They had a promo earlier. Mystery bag consists of 2 Sephora instant radiance foundation, bareMinerals eye brightener, Lancome La Base Pro, Sephora Outrageous volume mascara, Nars pure radiant tinted moisturizer & a perfume by Chloe
Quite happy with my mystery bag as it is always a joy to open up a free gift bag and see what goodies I'm getting. Most excited to try the Nars tinted moisturizer and the bareMinerals eye brightener, which hopefully can help with my dark circles underneath the eyes.
So many goods! Love the NARS bonus you got:)
ReplyDeleteSo happy got the NARS free gift. I'd rather spend points on something I enjoy using.
DeleteNice haul. I also got the NARS 500 perk set and the Sugar birthday gift :) My birthday is in a week x
ReplyDeletean early happy birthday to you! Isn't the NARS perk set amazing? I have been wanting to try the Orgasm blush for the longest time. So happy I got it :)
Deleteoh wow! that Too Faced set looks great.
ReplyDeleteand now i am also curious about this eyeliner!
that 500 point perk with the NARS is awesome! i'd love to try Orgasm one day!
I'm enjoying more of these gift sets as I always want to try new things and these are the perfect sizes before buying them full-sized.
DeleteThanks for dropping by my blog! I've been using the h20 cream for about a week now since I last blogged and you're right! It's pretty great! haha.
ReplyDeletePs. the NARS gift set sounds so good! I've heard so many reviews on the "orgasm" blush too - how did you like it? Any better than the other blushes out there?

The orgasm blush is very nice. Very pigmented and just love the color! I only used it a couple of times since I got it. Very impressed and happy with it so far. I got the ELF duo set which consists of a blush and bronzer very similar to NARS orgasm and laguna. I will do a post on that soon to do a comparison.
DeleteI'm dying to try Too Faced products! They all look so fancy and nice. Great haul love, enjoy! xx
ReplyDeleteI am really enjoying Too Faced products. If you need a bronzer, try their Milk Chocolate/Chocolate Solei. They are absolutely amazing and smell like chocolate :)
Deletethanks for dropping by, following you back :)
ReplyDeleteGreat haul. It looks like you def got great products here. I am thinking of checking them out too.
ReplyDeleteI am most excited about the Too Faced and NARS products. I have always wanted to try NARS orgasm blush and now I got it, definitely can see what the rave is about. Beautiful color!
DeleteCute haul! Those sugar lip products look so awesome!
