I've been on a super low/no buy, but I did plan to purchase something today which I have been thinking about for two weeks. I went to Bath and Body and purchased 4 of the candles with a 20% coupon. Yay. I think that's reasonable considering I usually go nuts purchasing stuff. I even went into Sephora with Mom and Macy's and still behaved (thank goodness). The Marshmallow Fireside smells totally different than I thought it would...it kinda smells like a cologne with a vanilla base...to me anyway. I am LOVING the Cinnamon Sugared Donut...it smells yummy. I think this one might be my new favorite for the season. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Smashbox The Nude Lip Liner- Light

two beautyblenders

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar- Melange

and got the free skincare deluxe sample bag with my order

Cant wait for it to come in. Im especially excited to try the OCC lip tar.
Got my order in: 



 
Not an exciting order, but stuff basic skincare stuff from The Body Shop.

Vit E Moisture Creme x3, Vit E Night Creme x3, Vit E Eye Creme, Seaweed Day Creme. I usually use the aloe line for the night creme and the seaweed line for the day creme, but the Vit E day/night cremes were on sale for 50% off, and then they had that 40% sale going on and the member's card, so the Vit E night creme only ended up being $5.40 when they usually sell for $20 and the day creme $4.45 instead of $16.50. I go through cremes pretty quickly and I figured if I didn't like them, I could always go into a store and trade them for my usual since they supposedly retail for the same price. :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

The two more exciting orders before which I made the same week and haven't gotten yet either are a pair of shoes from ShoeMint, and a bag and pair of shoes from JustFab (from the ipsy deal). The ShoeMint shoes are supposed to come with two Butter Londons so I'm excited to see what colours those are going to be. Surprises are especially nice when you know they're going to be nice surprises lol.

 
Just got myself some lip make up from Ulta's 40% off sale. I don't need more lip make up but I want them so bad! I have been experimenting on red lip sticks to find out I look better in cool tone red than warn tone red. So I got myself a few NYX round lipstick in cool tone red to play around with (since they are $2.39 each now).

Two lip butters (Cherry tart and Strawberry shortcake), I wonder why I never got myself a Strawberry Shortcake lip butter. It's the perfect pink I have been looking for.

And a Revlon Balm Stain in Smitten! I've had my eye on that since it came out but the $9 price tag kinda scares me off (still very affordable but I can't really afford one for the full price now) After debating with myself for a while I picked a color I've been afraid to try.

 
My three most recent makeup purchases:

1) MAC moisture cover concealer in NW20 

2) NARS smudgeproof eyeshadow primer (first time buying this, I hope it'll work for me!)

3) Shu Uemura cleansing oil (I cannot live without this...)

2 & 3 are online orders, so I'm currently happily waiting for them. 

 
Wet n Wild Fergie lipstick in Just Peachy.

(I love the color and that it's matte but the application is a little awkward.)

Real Techniques stippling brush

Real Techniques Core Collection

ELF HD Blush in Superstar, Encore and Diva

I just placed my first E.L.F. order - I need a new kabuki brush and their price was right.  I also ordered a purple cream eyeliner, a nude eyeshadow palette, and a tinted lip balm.  If I like their products, I see a long and prosperous relationship between ELF and I, lol.  I also  just bought 2 of the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain, one in the color Crush and one in Honey.  Honey is too light and Crush is too dark for me, but mixed together, it's gorgeous and perfect.
I have the kabuki and it's really good. I find it's soft and really blends out my foundation to make it look flawless[what I mainly use it for]

For me ELF is hit or miss. Some products work amazing and others don't work as great. Most of the products are really inexpensive so if I bought 3-4 products and hate 2 then I'm not out that much. I really want to try their new cream blushes. They look amazing as well as the new tapered brushes, the pressed mineral eyeshadow and the whole baked line[eyeshadow, blush, bronzer]

 
I purchased a NYX palette a few months ago and just got around to trying it today...I was going to purchase a darker bronzer for contouring and then I saw it had one in the palette. I contoured for the very first time today!!!!!! YaY!!!!

 
I purchased the Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer. It was recommended by Paula Begoun so I figured I'd give it a try. I love it and unfortunately ran out four days ago. It ads great coverage, lasts without smearing or budging. It also blends better than any other concealer I have used. Sometimes I'll use it on the bridge of my nose for highlight and it looks wonderful. A must buy for sure!

 
I couldn't resist the temptation of the UD Gelinda palette. I've got my 20% off at Ulta coupon in my hot little hand for today. I think I'm going to pick up a few Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman brushes, and maybe something from that new Smashbox collection. (Love Me, I think it is.) I'm really trying to save my money for the MAC Archie's Girls collection when it comes out, although I suspect it's going to sell out in a matter of seconds.

lol yeah, that collection looks interesting. it's definitely nostalgic for me, I used to read those comics over and over again. I always related more to Betty but liked Veronica's style better...and yes...I am talking about a comic book characters style. lol! the Real Techniques Brushes are pretty soft. Are you going to get any of the new Whispers, Vivids, or the L'Oreal Stains?
 
I bought a whisper.. the Maybelline ones? Plus a Revlon suede.. love them! The whispers are great, give a glossy look and are long lasting. The Revlon suedes are nice and soft, with a good matte finish. I'm clipping some coupons and going back to the drugstore today lol. Rite Aid has Revlon, buy one get one 50% plus money back, so I can snag more foundation and another lippie.

yeah! all the new drugstore products seem so amazing. the Suedes look like they have a really different finish. I want to try those and the three new products by the other brands. I was thinking of ordering them from ulta.com or directly from the merchant sites. it bugs me how some of them are not sealed at all and others which are sealed with the little sticker seem to be pulled off.ugh!

I pick mine up at drugstores because I can usually get them buy one get one 50% off. Combine with $1 off coupons and cash back, happy and smart shopper lol. The suedes are nice and the finish is good. I like the colors, too. Pretty lasting..now the Maybelline Whispers are the same, but offer a nice glossy finish like a balm. Both are pretty great lip products.

I agree, I like the discounts but that's the only thing that freaks me out. although, the Walgreen's by my house is pretty neat and the ladies that work in the makeup section are just so sweet so maybe I will stop in there next month (trying to stay away for now). I may also venture to CVS, I have only been there a few times years ago.
