I have spent most of February (happily) in Chicago which meant lots of Sephora shopping! Hurrah!
This is only some of the stuff I bought (or was “rewarded”), but I thought I’d give a quick run through of it
Hair
I am a huge fan of all that is Bumble & Bumble. I always use their shampoo now. I have been on the Thickening Shampoo (and the Thickening Hairspray) but thought I would return to the one I used in the summer, which is the Creme de Coco, just for the smell! It’s $25 in Sephora and £18.50 in Boots here
I also purchased a travel version of their All Style Blow Dry cream. I have this in the larger size, but had forgotten to pack it. This handy travel size means that you can take it as hand luggage! It just improves blow drying your hair, and makes it look…well…better!
Eyes
I was very lucky, and received a gift voucher from some of my lovely friends in America. One of the things I bought with it was this beautiful Smashbox Full Exposure eye pallet which was $52 and can be found here. It’s £37 from their website here.
It’s a great mix of day and night- some matt shades and some glittery. I only wear browns/greys/blacks for eye shadow, so this is perfect. What I really like about this is the brush that it came with too. Sometimes the tools that come with make up are an afterthought. This is a great brush- I use it alongside my Mac brush as well to blend. I have never used Smashbox before, but I really like this pallet!
Scent
I also got Tom Ford’s Black Orchid perfume. It is just stunning. This is the perfume, rather than Eau de Toilette, so it is strong, but gorgeous.
It’s $75 at Sephora here– pricey, but worth it! You can find it in the UK for £52 here as well.
Free Gifts
I purchased all of this in a few trips, so got a few free gifts and points prizes. As it was my birthday month, I got these Nars lip pencils in 2 shades- one of them is very red! A nice gift, nonetheless! I also got a few 100 points gifts, including this Boscia face mask
