Summer Solstice Shopping Spree! part 2

Im starting this post with a quick mention of the product I bought with my sponsorship money from Apothica.com and SkincareRx.com

I bought another Too Faced eyeshadow Palette to complement my Too Faced Natural Eye Palette shown below:

From Google

From Apothica.com

This is the Natural at Night Eye Shadow Collection from Too Faced.

I've always wanted it and so I treated myself and bought it even though I have a ton of eyeshadow palettes laying around...

The colors are wonderfully pigmented and beautiful as expected from Too Faced Cosmetics

I find myself wearing theses colors day or night and wearing them together with shadows from the Natural Eye Palette

Here we have the eye look cards to help you figure out which looks to try

Here are the colors without flash

Here are some samples I got with my order:

Equinox Gel Cleanser

Replenix Brightening Polish

Too Faced Shadow Insurance

From American Eagle Outfitters

Keeping with the theme of Day and Night Looks, I got these these 2 tanks from American Eagle.

They're boyfriend style racer back tanks with a metallic finish on the front.

I also got these 2 Boyfriend Cardigans on a whim :)

They're sooo comfy!

From Charlotte Russe

There was a 30% off sale at Charlotte Russe so I went in to get a bunch of stuff.

I love shopping in the store rather than online because the cashier always takes off an extra 10% when you show your student I.D.

For all this stuff I paid no more than $35...if there was no sale I'm sure I would have to twice as much

On top is an awesome wallet I got.

It has standard wallet parts but it also comes with a zipper pouch.

So it can convert from a wallet to a wristlet to a crossbody purse for day time use.

The straps are detachable so you can also use it as a clutch for the night time.

The handbag is amazing cute and fun!

I just needed some more earrings lol

I never wore aviator shades before so I picked up 2 for $3.00 each to try them out for the summer :)

From Old Navy

Old navy was having a 30% off sale too and I had an in-store 15% off coupon to buy some summer fashion staples with.

Just bought some summer dresses for day and night looks.

I also bought a thin cardigan for cool summer nights and I picked up a cute chambray style shirt

From Forever21

I got all the tops in the sale section

Just needed some more jeans lol

Above 4 images belong to Forever21.com

I picked up a random sports bra and some jewelry

Pretty much just shoved all the new tops and dresses I bought into one of my empty drawers lol

I did the same to all my new jeans :-P

And thats the end of my super massive summer haul!

All together with coupons, giftcards, sales and birthday money I spent about $500-$600

I wont be shopping again for a while....

Sephora Haul part 4

This is the final installment of my super Sephora haul.

I love going to the ultra chic Sephora Stores in NYC!

The sales staff are very kind and knowledgeable.

From Left to Right:

Sephora Collection The Perfectionist Makeup Sponge in Purple

Soap and Glory Hand Food Hand Lotion

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment in Petal

Sephora Collection Colorful Dual Antibacterial Sharper in Pink

Sephora Collection Perfecting Cover Concealer in Sand

I went to a small event introducing the Urban Decay travel-size De-Slick oil controlling makeup setting spray.

Its now being sold at sephora stores and on their website.

I got a bunch of Lancome skincare and foundation samples while I was there.

Fun Fact about Sephora Stores:

If you want free samples just tell one of the sales people that your interested in buying something.

They'll most likely fill up samples of things you want (but they skimp on product) themselves or let you fill sample containers by yourself if the store is busy.

I always go when the store is busy and load up on samples myself

If you run out of the containers they give you, there are more sample holders under the makeup tables with the big mirrors :)

If you feel guilty about taking so many free samples then buy something cheap.
