I am fortunate enough
to do quite a bit of traveling, but since the long travels will have to be
postponed for a year or so with the baby in the house, I’m also lucky enough to
have friends that travel and are willing to indulge my obsessions (addictions, insanity – however you want to call them).
Anyway, I have a
very good girlfriend leaving for the States in a couple of weeks and this is my shopping list
for her. Let me just say that June is also my birthday month so technically I
will be getting some of these things as gifts, so it’s not as crazy as it
looks. Really, it’s not. I promise.
I’m a sucker for the
value sets which really are great value for money in my opinion. This time, I
have four quite a few on my list.
SEPHORA LASHSTASH TO
GO (28 $, 57 $ value)
SEPHORA PAINT IT PINK
(40 $, 122 $ value)
I really hope this set
will still be available by the time my friend hits the stores. It includes: Benefit
Cosmetics Roller Lash (deluxe sample), Deborah Lippmann nail polish in Baby
love, Laura Mercier Velour, Lovers lip color (full size - $28), MakeUp Forever
Artist Plexi-Gloss (deluxe sample), Urban Decay eyeshadow in Scratch (full size
- $19), Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Rose Gold (deluxe sample), a
Beautyblender (regular - $20) and the Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-hour Blush in
Blissful (deluxe sample). As you can see, the full size items alone are $67 so
it really is great value. I haven’t used a single item from this except for the
Beautyblender so I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
Alternative: BECCA
SHIMMERING SKIN PERFECTOR (20 $)
Since I really want to
see what the fuss is all about with the Becca Shimmering Skin perfectors so if
the option above fails, I would like to get my hands on the Glow On The Go set
that includes deluxe samples of Shimmering Skin Perfector in Opal in both
pressed and liquid version.
SEPHORA FAVORITES TIME
TO PRIME (25 $, $51 value)
I am a big sucker for
primers and so far all of the best ones in my life were purchased at Sephora.
But these are not just face primers – no, no – these are ALL the primers: Bite
Beauty Line & Define (lip primer), Formula X Prime Base Coat (nail base
coat), Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer with SPF 15 (face primer), Living Proof
Prime Style Extender(hair primer), Smashbox 24hour Finish Shadow Primer (eye
primer) and Urban Decay Subversion Lash primer. Let’s get primed!
BEAUTYBLENDER TWO BB
CLEAN ($40,00, $58 value)
Ever since I tried the
Beautyblender for the first time I’ve been hard pressed to find a sponge that
would be just as good. This set includes two regular sized Beautyblenders as
well as a Blendercleanser fluid that can be used on other sponges as well if I
don’t use it up on my Beautyblenders alone. Since a single BB costs 24 € here
(27 $), it’s a great value and I plan to stock up for some time.
BENEFIT COSMETICS CHEEKATON
BLUSH & BRONZER PALETTE ($58, $145 value)
This palette seems
almost too good to be true, but it isn’t. It includes six full size bestselling blushes and a
bronzer from Benefit: Dallas, Dandelion, Coralista, Rockateur and Hoola
Bronzer. Check out the value – I’m getting five products for a third of the
original price and they are all neatly stored in a lovely palette. What more could
a girl ask for?
And that is it for my
wish list. I’ll probably be adding some last minute items to it but these above
are the ones I’m really looking forward to using and I can’t wait to get them.
Let’s all say a big thank you to Urša who will be schlepping them around the
world for me (but then again, she is flying business class so she’ll at least
be well rested while doing so) :)
Do you have a MUST TRY
from Sephora for me? Let me know in the coments!
Until next time, stay
beautiful!
