Sephora Beauty Splurge Pt. VIII

Before starting Project 10 Pan I made one last Sephora purchase!

 

 

Sephora Beauty Haul #8

 

Urban Decay Ammo Eye Palette

Retail $38.00 on sale for $12.00!

 

Even though I already have the Ammo Palette in the new design, I could not resist purchasing this version. This looks to be an anniversary edition celebrating Urban Decay's 10th birthday! I couldn't go wrong at this price and it will be great to have a back up of their bestselling shades!

 

Shiseido Eyelash Curler

Retail $19.00

 

Even though I had already purchased an eyelash curler during Julep's Warehouse Sale, I thought it was time to really invest in a Shiseido curler since I've heard so many good things. I'll either give away the Julep one or keep it at my boyfriend's.

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION 3 In 1 Perfecting Base Coat

Retail $6.00

I can always use more base coat!
 

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Mirror Shine Top Coat

Retail $6.00

Doesn't hurt to have more top coat either!

 

 

 

SEPHORA by OPI Nail Colour (Just a little Dangerous)

Retail $9.00 on sale for $4.50!

 

I picked up a few colors from this line when they originally went on sale and became a big fan. I absolutely love dark purple polishes, so this shade is perfect for me! It's a little dark to see the depth of the color indoors, but in direct sunlight you can see all the little pink flecks in the polish.

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Flirt-It Lash Duo

Retail $10.00 on sale for $3.00!

 

I want to start getting into wearing false eyelashes more to add a bit of extra glam for nights out! I thought this set was a great value and it was rated highly.

 

Free Deluxe Sample: Lancôme Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover

I can always use more makeup remover!

 

Free Samples: Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder Foundation Mattifying Oil Free, Cover FX Total Cover Cream Foundation, and Josie Maran Argan Matchmaker Serum Foundation

There wasn't much variety in the samples offered, but free is free!

 

Reward Deluxe Sample (100 Points): Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick (Catfight)

 

If you haven't figured it out already, I'm officially addicted to Urban Decay! Even though I already got a deluxe sample of Anarchy and purchased a full size of Streak, I couldn't resist getting another baby lipstick! It was a bit of a gamble since Sephora didn't list the shade, so there was a chance I could have ended up with a duplicate. But I got lucky and got Catfight!

Spent: $50.50 plus sales tax. Total Savings: $37.50! I saved about 42%!
 

 

Sephora Beauty Splurge Pt. III

Just like my last Sephora purchase, almost everything I got was on sale! Can't beat well rated brand name cosmetics on clearance!! The only thing I did buy at full price was the Urban Decay palette-but it's to die for and I know I will love it!!

 

Sephora Beauty Haul #3

 

 

Urban Decay Ammo Palette

Retail: $34.00

 I could not resist splurging on this palette! I've been wanting to try Urban Decay and I just love the skull design of this palette! The eye shadow shades look gorgeous-I will have so much fun coming up with different color combinations! I love that this comes with a mini shadow brush instead of those cheap ones that usually come in eye shadow compacts! I am also super excited to try the Eyeshadow primer!

 

 

Eyeshadow: Smog, Mildew, Oil Slick, Last Call, Chopper, Maui Wowie, Shattered, Polyester Bride, Grifter, and Sin

0.13 oz Eyeshadow Primer Potion in Original

Mini Shadow Brush

 

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Kohl Expert Eyeliner (Brun Perfect)

Retail $8.00 on sale for $3.00!

I love kohl eyeliners and I will get a lot of use out of this neutral shade!

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Flashy Liner Waterproof (Flashy Blue)

Retail $8.00 on sale for $3.00!

I love colored eyeliners-they are so fun to use when you want to add a pop of color for an easy summer look!

 

 

SEPHORA by OPI Trend Tips (Blue Snake Skin Sparkle)

Retail $12.00 on sale for $6.00!

I love silver and turquoise and snakes, so this is perfect for me!

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Moisturizing Bronzing Body Lotion

Retail $16.00 on sale for $5.00!

Since tanning is bad for your skin, I stick with tanning lotions if I want a subtle glow!

 

 

Free Deluxe Sample: Murad Time Release Retinol Concentrate for Deep Wrinkles

Since I'm fairly young and don't have deep wrinkles, I may give this away.

 

 

Free Samples: Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau De Toilette, Marc Jacobs Honey Eau de Parfum Spray, Carol's Daughter Monoi Shampoo and Conditioner, and Marc Jacobs Honey fragrance card (extra freebie)

 

 Do you ever use tanning lotions or bronzers to change your skin color?

Do you like using nail appliques or do you prefer to stick with nail polish?

 

 

Sephora Beauty Splurge Pt. II

I've made yet another Sephora Purchase. As always, I was tempted by their sale items, free samples, gift with purchase, and free shipping with $50 purchase!! Not everything I got was on sale this time- I did pay full price for two items, but they were on my wish list.

 

Beauty Haul #2

 

 

SEPHORA by OPI Quick Dry Top Coat

Retail $14.00 on sale for $9.00!

I am loving this SEPHORA by OPI sale right now! And I can always use more top coat!!

 

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Lovely Lips

Retail $15.00 on sale for $7.00!

I'm love me some lip balm! I love reapplying lip balm throughout the day after drinking several cups of coffee or tea!

 

 

LORAC TANtalizer Highlighter & Matte Bronzer Duo

Retail $12.00 for 0.2 oz.

This item was on my wish list-I love that the highlighter and bronzer is in one compact, which by the way is so shiny!! LORAC also sells a larger version of this for $32, but I went with the smaller one. This compact is actually a decent size for being the travel-sized version that it makes me wonder how large the regular compact is!

 

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION The Shape Shifter

Retail $12.00

This has also been on my wish list. I love the color and think this kit will be perfect to stash in my bag for touch ups on the go!

 

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Outrageous Prisma Chrome Metallic Eyeshadow (Purple #5)

Retail $16.00 on sale for $7.00!

I had purchased this in Metallic Beige #1, and thought it was such a good deal to invest in another shade! Purple is a great color for me because it makes my green eyes stand out and I love metallic cosmetics!

 

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Pastel Pop Twinkle Light Eye Pencil (Sparkling Black)

Retail $12.00 on sale for $5.00!

I love black eyeliner-I can never get enough! It's a main staple in my makeup bag!!

 

 

 

Free Deluxe Sample: Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara

I wanted this just for the name! Plus I love the look of the packaging of the full sized mascara!!

This was a must-have and I'm glad I will get to try it out for free!!

 

 

Free Samples: COACH Coach Love Eau De Parfum Spray (tried it-love the scent), Bumble and bumble Surf Foam Wash Shampoo, BOSCIA Super-Charge Overnight Moisture, and Amazing Cosmetics Amazing Concealer (extra freebie!)

 

 

 

Lately, I've been buying more products form the SEPHORA COLLECTION and trying out some new brands. Do you like the SEPHORA COLLECTION or do you prefer to use other brands?

SEPHORA by OPI

As you all know, I picked up a few SEPHORA by OPI polishes during Sephora's 50% off sale. I purchased Mermaid To Order, Teal We Meet Again, Meet For Drinks, and I'm With Brad. You can view my swatches of Mermaid To Order here. Today, I will be showing you my swatches for the other three.

 

Teal We Meet Again

 

I'm always a sucker for teal, so I love this deep blue green color! 

 

 

 

Meet For Drinks

 

This color is a typical shade I'd wear. It's a deep magenta plum-perfect for a night out for drinks as the name suggests!

 

 

 

I'm With Brad

 

This color is definitely one of my new favorites-it's a mix of espresso and wine. I absolutely love coffee and wine, so this polish is the perfect vampy color for me!

 

Have you tried SEPHORA by OPI? What's your favorite shade in the line?

 Which of these three would you wear?

 

 

Sephora Beauty Splurge Pt. I

My addiction for Sephora is growing. With so many different brands and products to try, there's always something on my wish list. Not only did I find some really nice stuff, but everything I purchased was on sale!

 

My Sephora Beauty Haul

 

 

Illamasqua Nail Varnish Duo (Viridian/ Glitterati): Retail $25.00 on sale for $19.00!

I splurged on this gorgeous limited edition lacquer set. This is a new brand for me- I can't wait to try these rich colors!

 

 

 

SEPHORA by OPI Brush-On Cuticle Oil: Retail $9.00 on sale for $4.50!

 I was in need of some cuticle oil, and thought the tube would make it easy to use!!

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Pro Lesson Palette: Green Eyes: Retail $20.00 on sale for $9.00!

I'm a big fan of color by number cosmetics. It's great for those who are inexperienced in makeup application or those who don't have a lot of time to get ready. I know my way around a makeup palette, but sometimes it's nice having a predetermined makeup look picked out for you. I love that this palette comes with two looks (Smoky and Natural) to enhance my best asset!

 

 

SEPHORA COLLECTION Colorful Duo Eyeshadow (Color 10 Golden Pink): Retail $16.00 on sale for $5.00!! I'm new to trying Sephora eyeshadow and thought this was a steal to try out. This duo was available in three other combos, but I selected this one because I thought it was the most wearable.

 

Mermaid To Order, Teal We Meet Again, Meet For Drinks, I'm With Brad

 

Retail $9.00 on sale for $4.50 each! Sephora was having a huge sale on all SEPHORA by OPI products since they are replacing the collection with their new SEPHORA X line. There were so many polishes to choose from, but I narrowed it down to the top four colors I most wanted to try.

 

 

 

 

I just had to try my favorite out first: Sephora By OPI Mermaid To Order

 

I just love this color-it definitely reminds me of mermaids!! I wish I tried this collection sooner before finding out it was being discontinued. I know I'm probably missing out on some great colors!!

 

 

Free Samples: Prada Luna Rossa Men's Fragrance, Living Proof Nourishing Styling Cream, Philosophy Cinnamon Buns Shampoo, Shower Gel & Bubble Bath, Fresh Soy Face Cleanser, & Dior DiorShow Mascara deluxe sample

 

As always, you get 3 free samples with every order, plus I had a promo code for the deluxe sample! Somehow they also threw in the Men's Fragrance sample which I'll give away since I can't use it.

 

Spent: $55.50 plus sales tax. Total Savings: $50.50!! Not bad-almost half off!!

What did you think of my latest Sephora purchase? What's on your wish list?
