I am so excited, I got my Sephora order in the mail yesterday! I actually ended up placing two orders because after I placed the first one, my Urban Decay NAKED2 palette, I decided that I really wanted to try out the new Urban Decay NAKED Skin Foundation. What I love about Sephora is that you always get to pick 3 free samples with every order so with placing two orders I got 6!! I as well had some coupon codes that got me a free Buxom Big & Healthy Lipstick and another coupon for the second order that got me a little bag with 6 perfume samples! I love perfume so I am so excited about this! (I will post codes if you want to order anything off their site =]) Sephora also has the option of spending $50 and you get free 3 day shipping so I took advantage of that for sure! Overall I spent a little over $100 and since I am in their Beauty Insiders' Club I got 100+ points for that order so I used 100 of my points and got a free gift!
So here is what I got!
YAY! I have been wanting the Urban Decay NAKED2 Palette for forever so I am so happy I got it! I have already used it for a brown smokey eye and the pigmentation is great! The colors are so beautiful and they are very smooth! The palette came with a travel sized Lip Junkie Lipgloss in Naked. I love the packaging on the lipgloss it is so adorable! The brush that came with the palette is very nice, the bristles are smooth and apply the eyeshadow nicely!
I am so happy I decided to place a second order to get this! I got it in the color 2; it matches my skin really well, although it does have a little bit of a yellow tint to it. I am so in love with it already. I used my ELF Cosmetics Studio Powder Brush to apply it, it went on so nicely! The coverage can be built up to how you prefer it, it does not even feel like you are wearing Foundation! I absolutely love how my face feels when I wear this foundation! It sales for $38 and is 1 OZ. It is definitely worth the cost and I will buy it again without hesitation.
This is the Sephora Be You Lip Balm in Coral Twist. I have never tried their lip balm before so I decided to give it a try. It is very sheer but it does leave a coral tint on the lips. It's retail price is $3 but I just looked at the site and it looks like they aren't selling it any longer..
The last item I bought is the Living Proof Shampoo. I really wanted to try this out because I received Living Proof's styling cream in my June Myglam bag and I loved it, so I thought I would try out their shampoo. I only bought a 2 OZ size because I am picky when it comes to shampoo so I did not want to buy the larger size in the case that I did not like it. (The 2oz size is $10) I tried this yesterday and I love it! I have become a huge fan of Living Proof now; I will definitely be buying the full size shampoo as well as a conditioner to see if I like that too. My hair is so soft and shiny right now it is incredible. I definitely rate this product 10/10!
Ok to the free stuff I got! First I will show you what I got with my Beauty Insider points..
Philosophy Purity Cleansing Gel (1 OZ)
I tried this as well yesterday an I thought it did a great job at removing my make up in the shower. It did not take away all of my eye make up, but it took away enough so that I did not get out looking like a raccoon lol. I really liked this cleanser because I have sensitive skin and most cleansers make my face breakout in a rash but this one didn't so I am very happy with this!
My free products with the coupon codes!
The first code I used was 6SCENTS and when you enter this in at the checkout you can chose between 4 different bags of perfume samples. I picked 'playful' mostly because it had the Aquolina Pink Sugar perfume, I already got one in my Beauty Army sub and I love it! The other perfumes that came with this are Marc Jacobs Oh Lola, Versace Bright Crystal, Clinique Happy, Ralph Lauren Romance, and Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia. I really enjoy all of the scents, I absolutely love perfume samples because I travel a lot and I can actually take these small bottles on the plane. I smelt the Giorgio Armani one and I was like this reminds me of something from when I was younger and I just couldn't think of what; I called my mom and was telling her about it and she told me that she actually wore it when I was younger! Isn't it funny how after so long we still remember scents even if we cannot always pinpoint them? The second coupon code I used was YOURGIFT and it will let you pick a deluxe sample gift; I picked the Buxom Big & Healthy Lip stick in Marrakech. It honestly isn't my color once I actually saw it in person but I think it will look pretty good with a darker lipgloss over it!
Free Samples!
Have you bought any new products lately?
