I have a little haul to share. I made a couple of orders — one with Ulta and one with Sephora during the recent sales. Here’s what I picked up:
From Sephora I picked up two Urban Decay palettes half price! Plus, I got the Tatcha and Youth to the People deluxe samples with my Sephora points.
The Sunday Riley set was on sale during the Ulta 21 Days of Beauty. I also picked up some soaps, and got free shipping when I purchased the skincare. I haven’t tried it yet.
These are the Ont The Run Mini Palettes in G-Train and Bailout. I have the pink and blue/brown toned ones and I wanted these two. They were on sale for $12.50 each! I should have got the last one, Highway Queen (oranges), but I’m sure I will pick it up later. I love the formula of these palettes.
This is Bailout! Gorgeous browns and purples.
G-Train is warmer and has a couple of gorgeous greens! I will hopefully be swatching and reviewing these soon. And I’m sure I’ll be using one or both of these this month in my daily Shop My Stash (check out my Instagram @fortyflirtyfab).
This is the Sunday Riley Flash Fix set. It has the Good Genes All-In-One Lactic Acid Treatment and the Ceramic Slip Cleanser. I haven’t tried it yet, but it looks really nice.
For my Sephora points, I got two duos — the Youth to the People Adaptogen Deep Moisture Cream and the Superfood Antioxidant Cleanser. I also picked up the Tatcha The Deep Cleanse and The Water Cream.
