…for your face!
Pretty in (#ipsy) Pink started off strong with Smashbox Cosmetics – Photo Finish Primer Oil (0.13 oz.). If they wanted me to fall in love with any product it would be this. I am truly a fan of facial primer and Smashbox has a history of impressing me. The 1 oz. size sells for $42 on smashbox.com. This smaller size would have retailed around $5.46.
The next item was definitely a good runner up. Chella – Lipstick Pencil in Passionate Pink (0.04 oz.) was a tad darker than I usually wear, but it’s not too dark that I won’t wear it. I definitely need to continue to branch out with my lip colors. Every time I try a new color I feel like it looks weird on me but I don’t know if it’s because I’m not used to wearing lipsticks or because I actually look weird. Haha…I definitely won’t be asking my husband. He hates it when I wear chapstick – “Eww, it’s sticky!” He’s the real weirdo. I believe this is the full-size so it would have rang in at $18.
I’ve been meaning to branch out and learn more about all the different kinds of brushes I can use, so I was pleasantly surprised when I received the Luxie Beauty Flat Definer Brush 221 (wt. 0.5 oz.) which retails at $16 on luxiebeauty.com. I will learn how to use this! Ha!
The Paula Dorf – Baby Eyes Enhancer (0.02 oz.) is a really nice product. Although I like the color and the concept behind the eye enhancer, but I’m not sure how often I’ll use it. On pauladorf.com the 0.4 oz. is $20 so this enhancer would be $1.
Promise Organic – Ultra Moisturizing Argan Crème Facial Lotion (0.5 oz.) smelled amazing. Argan and organic. Beautiful words to my ears.You can find the larger 1.7 fl. oz. on promiseorganic.com, which directs you to cvs.com where it retails for $14.99. The site says “exclusively at CVS/pharmacy” on their site. This smaller size would be $4.41.
This bags total would have been $44.87. I think I got a pretty good deal.
