Sephora Hauls: Friends & Family and VIB

It's that time of year again. Where the sales run rampant and it's hard to say no. This is evident in the amount of purchases I've made lately. I'm sure my bank account will hate me for it at some point but I have lot of new lovelies to play with so I'm currently okay with that!

Friends & Family Haul:






I've already been using these products for a couple of weeks now and some are instant loves.

Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation in 3.5- I'll do a full review on this soon but I am very disappointed in this foundation.
Lancôme Hypnose Drama Waterproof mascara- <3 The first mascara that I have repurchased in a very long time. Full review to come.
Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture Mat in Rouge Rock- After one use it became my favorite red lipstick. Beautifully matte but not drying in the least.
Clinique Take The Day Off Eye makeup remover- This a staple product. I use it every day and rebuy it often.
Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder
Anastasia Brow Powder Duo in Stawburn- This is a great match to my red hair!
Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo- This is the best one I've used so far but the scent is very strong and that turns me off from it.
Yves Saint Laurent Glossy Stain in #4- This shade is lovely! Slightly vampy but wearable for every day. I'm a fan of the formula as well.







L to R- YSL Rouge rock, YSL Glossy Stain #4 one layer, two layers



VIB Haul:





Shiseido Luminizing Satin Eye Color Trio in Fire
Sephora Pro Smudge Brush #11
BECCA beach tint in Dragonfruit
Guerlain Lingerie Du Peau Foundation in 31 Ambre Pale
Illamasqua Rubber Finish Nail Polish in Prosperity and Devotee
BI 100 point reward- Bumble & Bumble Thickening Spray


I also placed a second last minute order to purchase a secret Santa gift and I also threw in another YSL glossy stain (#10!) three more shades of Illamasqua rubber finish nail polish and Diorshow iconic Mascara for me.
