It was an awesome trip. I think that for the past three days I have gotten a total of 9 hours of sleep and right now I am feeling it.

I went to the Vegas Pro store on THursday and it was a zoo. So many people for such a little store. They had some cool models (male and female) walking around in bathing suits with the D'Bohemia theme. It was really cool.

I gambled a lot

and partied a lot too! Had a great time with my family. Last night, we saw one of the Cirque Du Soleil shows called Zumanity. Its an erotic version of Cirque Du Soleil. It was amazing! I also got a chance to go to to Wynn Hotel (it just opened on 4/28) and it was freaking amazing. Such an awesome hotel. Overall, it was a great trip!

Oh I'm so jealous! I wanna GO TOO!!!

Sounds like you had a great time!!! I didn't even know they had a Pro store in there... where is it? In the Ceasars forum shops?? (That's where all the other good stuff is - so I'm only assuming! LOL) But I was still a "MAC Virgin" at that point.. so I really wasn't looking for it either.

Where is the Wynn Hotel?? Is it on the strip? I have heard about it - but not that much info... you have me curious now!

Trisha, keep in mind for future needs, Chanel and Clarins are owned by EL also so you'll get discount with them also

LOL i dont need a pro card as i have all the pro stuff i want (mainly the e.s), i get 65% off MAC with staff discount anyways, plus my Selfridges store card gets me 35% off anything on our beauty/frag/skincare floor at work!

It is in the Forum Shops at Ceasars Palace.

The Wynn Hotel is not on the strip (meaning Las Vegas Blvd) but its a block east of it. Here is a picture of it.

Oooh... nice!!!! I was there in Oct. of 2000... Stayed at the Aladdin... (right after it's grand opening in August) that's a great hotel too! But that one looks really cool!

And guess that MAC Pro is another one to add to the list of "Great shops at Ceasars' !!! LOL

How wonderful Marisol, I am so glad your trip was fabulous. Did you shop a lot? Get some rest first and let know the details tomorrow

I finally made it to my MAC store Saturday. I got the shade fluidliner and also broke down and got Pink Apertif l/s (my new favorite MLBB shade) and Flash of flesh lipglass (why did I try it on----so gorgeous, though I 'm waffling because I've been trying to get away from lipglasses as dbf hates the texture of them, and I like kissing dbf). I also got brush cleaner----the bottle is much bigger than I expected so that was cool.

Hopefully I'll try out the fluidliner and lipglass tomorrow. FOF looks awesome on top of pink apertif (tried it on at the store and my lips were fabulous).

Sorry Trisha for that huge list

My friend has the same benefits that you have through EL and she gets discount from Chanel and Clarins since EL owns them also. I checked with EL and they say the same. Maybe it is a USA thing.

Lilla, here is the list, it might not be completely up to date, but as far as I know EL doesnt own Chanel & Clarins (we get letters all the time about this kinda stuff)

Wow Trisha, that's very interesting, I never knew that..never realized that so many different companies were owned by the "parent" one

 

[wongy74]

Great Hauls, Kim and CWHF! I love Shade and FOF. I got Coco too, and it's my fav of the pigments in the D'bohemia collection

Beaute l/g is also *very* pretty, almost a twin of Chanel's Cristalle l/g in Melon, but much cheaper!

 

[Liz]

welcome back marisol! glad to hear that you had fun

i wore bagatalle the other day. i like it a lot! d'bohemia comes out more corally than pink. oceanique is pretty. used it as a brow highlight.

 

[Marisol]

Finally unpacked all my stuff and here is what I got:

D'Bohemia e/s

Star Violet e/s

Viva Glam V lip gloss

Cedarrose shadestick

Tinted Lip Conditioner in Rose Remedy

For some reason, I wasn't too impressed by the D'Bohemian colors. I am bummed because I was really looking forward to it. I still want the Temperly palette but the only place that has it close to me is the Saks in Beverly Hills and they charge $12 for S & H. That means it will be close to $60 with tax and everything. Still debating it.

Now I am really looking forward to Belle Azure.

I only got the 3 shadows from D'Bohemia... . I like the "Prose & Fancy" e/s because its a nice muted blue/green... although it looks close to meadowland in pics, it's actually more blueish in real life.

D'Bohemia is similar to Paradisco, but with more shimmer. And Bagatelle is close to Woodwinked but a tad lighter. :icon_love

I knwo what you mean, Marisol. For me, the l/s in D'bohemia were disappointing to me. I didn't get any. They all look like stuff I already have or really ML without the BB! LOL!
