The Lipstick League Question of the Week:
Spill it! What beauty products did you buy during Black Friday and/or Cyber Monday?
G's answer: I exhibited an enormous amount of restraint (for me, at least!) during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Here's my haul:
Macy's - Moschino Fresh Couture Gift Set (couldn't resist since it was $25)
Amazon - both beauty boxes
Sephora - Black Friday sets including Nest trio, Clean Reserve trio, Ole Henriksen trio, Alterna trio and Clinique duo
Sephora - Cyber Monday Kat Von D Lock It Brightening Powder in Peach (hoping this will be a good fit for me for setting under-eye concealer)
Cult Beauty - the 2 for 1 full-size Sunday Riley Ceramic Slip Clay Cleanser deal that was available on Cyber Monday
Ulta - nothing I can reveal here because I didn't buy anything for myself--only Christmas gifts for others
Nordstrom - again, nothing for myself; only Christmas gifts that I can't reveal here

Nouveau Cheap is Currently Craving: Make Up For Ever Pro Light Fusion Highlighter in Golden Pink. I recently saw this in person for the first time, and now I can’t stop thinking about it. Photos do not do it justice!

ReplyDeleteSephora: Heart shaped make up remover and the Clinique set (cleansing balm and mascara)

Macy's: Bobbi Brown mascara set and BB mini eyeshadow and lipstick set. And the lipstick sampler set ($20.00).
Rite Aid: three Revlon lipsticks
I think that is all!
I did not buy anything beauty related at all :(
ReplyDeleteI hear you Robin! I had so much FOMO, but none of the deals could measure up to the makeup I am already working through. I can't even bring myself to ask for anything for Christmas. On the bright side I have finally opened a Clinique gift set from 2 blackFridays ago.
DeleteI didn't buy a darn thing. At least, nothing beauty related and nothing for myself. But your post reminded me G, that you recommended Nest Indigo to me, and thank you for that! I wore it last night and went to an Xmas party and several people asked me what fragrance I was wearing. It's become one of my all time favorites.
ReplyDeleteAll Sephora:
ReplyDeleteBenefit Big Easy, and Ka brow.
UD Vice Vintage Lipstick in Roach and Smog, All Nighter foundation, Eyeshadow in Roach
Eye pencil in Sabbath and Dark Night 3 piece eye pencil set.
Stila eye pencil in deep burgundy

I'm $300 away from VIB Rouge and I still have my $20 gift to spend!
Just hit VIB ROUGE whoo hoo!
ReplyDeleteI was proud of myself! I only bought the Just Peachy Colorpop lip bundle for $12!!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't buy anything! I've been tempted, and I still have that Sephora VIB loyalty discount to us. My family has been low-key on gift exchanges the last couple years, too, which I appreciate, since it saves me time and money (and them, too).
ReplyDeleteI bought a lot of indie stuff, the Zoya 70% off deal, and that's it. Usually I buy my sister makeup or something beauty related, but she needs money more than makeup, so.
