Did you take advantage of Sephora's recent Friends & Family sale? I wasn't going to...but then I naturally broke down and went for it. I honestly didn't know what I was gonna buy, so I said to myself "Sephora never offers free shipping or any decent discount, so I'm gonna buy a few items I'd normally hold off on". The next few posts will highlight those purchases. I'm doing my part to stimulate the economy -- at least that's what I keep telling myself :D So here are two lovely YSL Rouge Volupte lipsticks in Red Taboo (#18) and Exquisite Plum (#22). Both retail for $34 each, making them my most expensive lipstick purchases to date...

The 42-color Double Stack palette is one that I've been wanting to try for a long time, after hearing great things about it. It retails for around $24.95 at Coastal Scents, and comes with 42 matte shades, although some shades have a subtle hint of sheen. There are 10 blushes underneath the eyeshadows, along with some application tools. Those of you on a tight budget, check out swatches and a review to see if this palette is for you...

Am I the only one who dreads removing eye makeup? Like, it's not bad to the point where I just won't wear eye makeup at all, but it's definitely the one part I "sigh" over lol. Maybe I'm just lazy. Anyhooburgers, TheBalm makes an eye-makeup remover in a super cute tin container called Balms Away ($20), that's supposed to allow for super easy and super quick makeup removal. I've always wanted to try it, so I finally bought it and here's what happened...though I must warn you, some gross images are full-speed ahead!
