New Purchase: Look what came in the mail… early

October 5, 2011 by Kim S. / blog, Hauls / 0 comments

Since purple is my favorite color. I ordered the Clarisonic Mia in Lavender from Amazon for $104. I used a $100 amazon gift card my job had given me. I’ve wanted one of these jammies for the longest time, but, I just couldn’t justify spending that amount of money on something like that no matter how amazing it sounded. It’s been on my birthday and christmas lists, but, I never received it. I was happy to have “free” money to use on it, and not feel too bad about the purchase.

I was supposed to receive my clarisonic on Friday, October 7th, but, it came today! .:yippee:. I’m hoping I am able to try it out this evening.

Reviews to come!

Do you have a clarisonic? How do you (or not) like it?

Haul: MAC Cosmetics and Sephora Purchases

August 9, 2011 by Kim S. / blog, Hauls / 7 Comments

When MAC re-stocked the Blogger’s Collection online, I instantly went on and snagged two of the All of My Purple Life lipglasses. I’ve wanted one since I mentioned it was coming out (see post). Of course, they immediately flew off the [online] shelves, so I missed out. With this order, I also picked up a Brow Pencil in Spiked that I needed.

I must say, I love it. It is a true purple. Purple is my favorite color. All of My Purple Life looks great over MAC Go For It lipstick (ltd edition), and Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Katricia Lip Tar. I lost the latter sometime last week, and now I have to re-order one! Grrr!

I twitpic’d a picture of what the combo of the Go For It l/s looks like with All of My Purple Life.

From Sephora (via Mintbox.com so I can get my 5% cashback) I picked up some ClickR Skincare Products. One of the items I reviewed (see post), the Daily Dermabrasion Wash, and another is one I wanted to try, the Hot Face Mask. I will review the Hot Face Mask as well as the Vanishing Mist (sent to me for review) very soon.

With this purchase, I received samples of Boscia’s sunscreen, Philosophy’s Hope In a Jar, Love Chloe perfume, and a mini lash primer.

Haul: Sleek Makeup – Contour Kit, Blushers & Pout Polishes (Swatches Included)

March 31, 2011 by Kim S. / blog, Hauls, Product Swatches / 5 Comments

I finally purchased some Sleek Makeup products. My husband had some family come up from London so I sent my order to their house to take advantage of the $4.99 shipping, which is MUCH better than $13.99! I wish they would do something about that. That’s the only thing that kept me from ordering previously.

I bought the following items:

Blushers: Scandalous, Sunrise, & Sahara ($6.50 each)

Face Contour Kit: Dark ($10)

Pout Polish: Pink Cadillac ($6.50)

First Thoughts:

WOW! These things are TINY! Especially the Contour Palette. I’ve seen pictures before, but never seen it in someone’s hand. When I thought about the palette I was thinking it would be similar to Make Up For Ever’s Contour Palette. I guess that’s why it’s $10. It’s perfect to carry around with you when traveling since it’s small and lightweight.

The packaging is very simple. The only thing that came in an actual box was the Contour Palette. Kudos for being green.

I may purchase something from them again depending on if I can get someone to do what I did to get these products OR if Sleek has a special.

I will do a review when I get a chance.

Do you own any Sleek Makeup Products?

What are your favorites?

Mini Nail Polish Haul – China Glaze Crackle Glaze

February 24, 2011 by Kim S. / blog, Hauls, Miscellaneous / 6 Comments

Just last week I told you about China Glaze’s Crackle Glaze. The nail supply I go to to had them, but, by the time I got there only two were left; my co-worker purchased the white crackle glaze. Today I was able to pick up China Glaze Crackle Glaze in Broken Hearted, China Glazes First Mate (blue), and Sephora Black Shatter (so excited I found it!).
