Last night I was happy to find mail I have been patiently waiting for and love it!!!
First off my Allure Sample Society box came in, this has to be my favorite beauty box to get because no matter what I almost always use all the products or know exactly who to give it to that will love and use it.
From my Allure box I will for sure be using this 3 products
-I loved when I got the Malin + Goetz body wash a couple of boxes ago so this lip balm I am sure I will also love and come on you know I love lip products. Only bad part is no SPF but that’s ok….
-Benefit Roller Lash I am super excited for because I know Ulta and Sephora were giving them out for free but I never managed to snag one so to get this in my box when I was sad I wasn’t able to get a free one is awesome!!! I look forward to testing this out and seeing how it compares to my other mascaras. I don’t have a “holy grail” mascara and am always looking for one 🙂
-Cargo Essential Lip Gloss in Taos, I initially felt eh about the color and wished I got a red, pink, or berry color but after some thought I am actually excited to try it out. The whole point of these type of boxes is to try out new stuff and since I definitely don’t have anything in this color it will be nice to see how it looks and maybe open me up to a whole new range of lipglosses
The stuff I won’t be using
-Oscar Blandi Texture & Volume Spray, sadly I don’t use dry shampoo but my husband, Dan loves dry shampoo!! So he is excited to get a travel size to take on his next trip 🙂
-Juice Beauty Green Apple Age Defy Moisturizer, I am always eh on moisturizers and to be honest after trying out oils and other new moisturizers I have gone back to my always dependable Ponds Cream. I don’t want to rock that boat again so after skyping with Reify this morning I will be sending this to her and know she will use it and love it more than I would ❤
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH is all I can say after patiently waiting for weeks for these babies to come in ❤
I am so happy to own the Nars Dual-Intesity Blush in Adoration. Omg this blush is soooo beautiful!!!! I don’t own Nars eyeshadows but ugh if it is like this blush I am buying some of their shadows for sure during the Sephora Sale.
I will be trying this on today and post about it soon.
I also caved and bought Nars lipsticks in Schiap (hot pink) and Roman Holiday (light pink) I can’t wait to see how they compare to my Nars Audacious. I have never tried these lipsticks from Nars and will be wearing Schiap today 🙂
Have an amazing weekend!!!

Awesome mail day! Love those bright colors! Let me know what you think of the regular Nars lipstick line. I used to like it, but it is too drying for me now. Maybe because there are so many awesome new products!!! 🙂

Omg that’s why I hesitated getting them for so long, too many people saying too dry. I chose colors I knew for sure I would wear regardless and ones I had matching lipglosses just in case they were too drying. I will definitely let you know how I feel about them. Yes to amazing products coming out, can we talk about Tom Ford’s summer line? OMGG swoon! I was sad I missed their white packaging last year but happy they have it this year and you bet I will be getting one of those lipsticks. They are sheer which I normally don’t like but TF is like Hourglass to me and neither can do any wrong in my eyes so I can’t wait ahhh!!! ❤

I really hope they work out for you. Maybe it differs by color since I do not have those colors. New TF lipsticks! Awesome! Now I am staring at the new ES Pure Color Envy Sculpting lipstick colors and the Burberry Lipsticks! LOL It never ends…

I have Roman Holiday and love it. It’s pale and smooth and easy for me to wear…and was my first high end lipstick, so I’ll always have a special place in my heart for it 😉

Thanks Leah! I thought Roman Holiday was much lighter so I am happy it isn’t as light as I originally thought and can’t wait to try it on 🙂

I just remember being in awe of so much makeup. I was in high school at the time and super excited to purchase it. Not sure why I gravitated to Nars but I’m glad I did. 🙂 I had tired the sample lipstick of Lancome and such but this was like a big deal. 🙂
