  I have heard from several makeup bloggers that Nars Albatross is a must have highlighter for WOC. Do you find this to be true? Also that the dupe for this is E.L.F Gotta Glow...I have this but honestly have never used it. I'm curious about that Anastasia Brow Kit too lol....Great Haul!! @Wowmua Albatross is an awesome highlighter, believe all the hype on this one! It looks white in the pan but once its applied on skin, its a sheer golden tone, not too glittery/sparkly either. A little goes a long way. Great for contouring cheeks when paired with a darker blush or concealer. I've never tried the E.L.F. GG. Maybe you can tell mel how it works for you! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Oh and I love the Anastasia Brow Genius! My eyebrows never looked better and it lasts all day. I can fake like I have high arches w/o looking too made up. It can be time consuming but it's worth it if you have sparse eyebrows like me. I checked your blog and you got a great haul too! I love a good deal on make up as well! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Elf is Not even a close dupe! Albatross is absolutely beautiful and shines a gorgeous golden color. I would absolutely invest in it. if you'd rather not spend as much $$ on it, I would pick up inglot's freedom pan eyeshadow in 26 (on the left), which is the exact same golden yellow sheen as albatross (right) but does not have a white-ish base. Here's my picture of that swatch:



The quality is the exact same buttery quality as nars, there is no chunks of glitter (since it's a pearl finish) and for the massive amounts of product that you get for it, $6 is totally worth it. (i'd just also recommend getting a single pan palette from inglot).

Wow!! That is gorgeous. I actually like the Inglot shadow better. That would make a pretty brow bone highlight too. I will be getting this for sure. I will come be sure to follow up with you after I try it out. Thanks a bunch!!

My birthday is this coming Saturday (12/28). My husband bought these for me. He doesn't know it yet :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> He hasn't done any shopping for Christmas or my birthday. I'm helping him out ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I even used a coupon for the Urban Decay. I saved him $

I keep spending and spending. It really is nice only getting gifts for two people this year. That means all the killer sales I can spend and spend some more on me. I haven't went crazy on makeup just clothes and other stuff really. I did buy a salon gift card and got one free for exact same amount! Chopped off my hair and went bright red. Santa dropped off a kitten for me last night, a little Maine Coon!!! Now I gotta splurge and get it some gifts. FYI those OPIs I got 2 for $5!!!

Little butthead is hard to get a picture of. I jokingly put on fb I wanted a puppy or kitten for Christmas, and ended up with my new family member. It'd be nice if I got a Tibetan Mastiff as my puppy... lol.

Aww, so adorable! I love the white mittens.

 
I totally just made a huge splurge!

From Saks:

-Chanel Nail polish in Black Pearl 

-Guerlain Meteorites Crazy Pearls

They had free shipping guaranteed by Christmas as long as it was ordered by a certain time today, and my ordered already shipped and it was already picked up by Fedex! Yay!

From Sephora:

-OCC Mini Lip tar set (I bought this for my mom)

-Too Faced Chocolate Bar palette! I'm so excited for this!

I also paid for 1 night shipping on this, and while not picked up yet (which I was totally not expecting anyway), it does already have a tracking number, so that's good!

Ahh, I love Maine Coons!!!! Awwwww your cat is so precious!

 
I purchased Naked 3 with my $20 off $50 VIB card on the day it was released online at Sephora. And then Saturday night my husband took me to Sephora and let me pick out some things for Christmas because he didn't know what to get. xD I picked up:

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Dim (LOVE this)

Too Faced All I want For Christmas set (definitely worth purchasing)

Diorshow Black Out Waterproof Mascara (eh, it's decent, but I have to wipe the brush off because way too much product comes out)

Tarte's Thoughtful Treasures ( I was surprised by how much I adore the Lipsurgence in Energy)

Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray

Boscia Peppermin Blotting Cloths

Sephora Daily Brush Cleaner

He's super amazing and surprisingly supportive/tolerant of my makeup obsession.
