First Stop - Sephora

I know I mentioned a haul video but i dont think that is going to happen. I have filmed it twice and still I am not excited to upload so instead lets do this the old fashioned way. There will be posts about a small haul at Duane Reade and my lovely visit to Bleecker street NARS store but today lets talk about the bits I picked up at Sephora. I went to Sephora twice but the first time we were in a hurry so I just grabbed the two things I new I "needed" and one little extra.

I marched right up Tarte stand and bagged the Tarte Amazonian Clay 12 Hour Blush in Natural Beauty(Link). If you saw my NYC wishlist post you know that I have been eying it forever and I love the formula of these blushes. This shade looks proper scary in pan but translates like a natural oh-you-made-me-blush kind of color on the cheeks. 

As I was at Tarte stand and it happens to be one of those brands I cant get in Dubai I decided to try their mascara as well. I chose the Lights, Camera, Lashes (Link). 

Next I practically ran to Kat Von D products cause gosh I have waited a long time to get my hands on that Tattoo Liner(Link). I plan to do proper reviews of the products later on but I can't control myself with this one. It is my favorite liquid eyeliner of all time. If you can go get it today or make your friends get it for you or make stranger get it for you or anyone in the states basically. It is awesome! If you want to be less dramatic you can of course order it online.

On my way out I grabbed the Sephora Lip Cream Stain in 01 (Link) as well. Yes I had heard all the hype and yes they sell it in Dubai as well. No I do not know why I was being stubborn and not picking it up. Saving you from long gushing I'm just gonna say its worth ALL the hype!

So the second raid to Sephora was at the end of the trip and very deliberately so. This way I had bought most of the things (shoes, bag, leather jacket) so I knew I had to go easy on the hauling. I did of course get a few more things. I got another Sephora Lip Cream Stain(Link) cause its that good. The only other shade that stood out was 03 so into the basket it went. 

All we have left is two skincare bits, an odd "I-wonder-what-this-is" purchase and a last minute grabbing at the check out. I got the Boscia Luminizing Black Mask(Link) and the Ole Hendricks Truth Serum(Link). The random purchase is Philosophy In The Buff Sun-Kissed Face skin perfector. I shall report back about this one. Lastly the bright pinkness and my curiosity made me grab the BeautyBlender (Link) lined so nicely next to the cashier.
 

 I have included a quick face of the day. I am wearing a light dusting of Natural Beauty blush, the tattoo eyeliner and the 03 Lip Cream Stain. The same look has been going on for about a week now with the lip color alternating between the two Cream Stains and the two Nars lipsticks I managed to hord.

So this is it with the part 1 of my beauty haul. I shall be back with new stuff soon.

I hope you have a perfect Monday and thank you so much for reading!
