Sephora VIB Haul + Birthday Gifts

April 9, 2014

I headed to Sephora last week to pick up a few items while taking advantage of their 15% off sale! I picked up a few items and also want to share a couple things from my friends for my birthday!

Bare Minerals Beauty in Bloom Set
bareMinerals - Beauty In Bloom

 

$45 at Sephora
I got this to try out the brand and thought this was such a great value.

The blush and eyeshadow are in the same size packaging! I thought it was nice they included an instruction card too.

 

Laura Mercier Mineral Powder Foundation
Laura Mercier - Mineral Pressed Powder SPF 15
$42 at Sephora
Been looking for a good powder foundation and this one seemed finely milled and not too drying for my skin.
Buxom Hot Escape Bronzer in Tahiti
Β 
Buxom - Hot Escapes Bronzer
$35 at Sephora
I realized all my bronzers were for contouring and I wanted to get one that I can dust all over my face for a golden glow.
The bronzer looks really dark here but it actually is very light (see review) and I’m having trouble getting it to show on my face. I love that both have a mirror.

 

L’Occitane Hand Cream
Β 
L'Occitane - Hand Creams

Β 

$12 at Sephora
I’ve been out of my L’Occitane for a long time and the bath and body works hand cream just isn’t the same!

Β 

Sephora Sharpener
SEPHORA COLLECTION - Colorful Dual Antibacterial Sharpener
$6 at Sephora
This sharpener has a bigger hole to fit my lip crayon.

I also went down to the states recently for some shopping!Β  I didn’t really need to buy anything but I just tried to stock up on some cheap finds!

Hollister + F21

Β 
Pink Sports Bra- F21- $9
Printed Kimono Jacket- Hollister- $12
High Waisted Lace Shorts- Hollister – $10
I pretty much just went through Hollister’s clearance items as they had additional 50% off last price πŸ™‚
I’m really excited to work these two pieces into my wardrobe for the summer!

Makeup

These items were from Target unless noted
Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer- $8
ELF Eye Refresh- $3
Burt’s Bee’s Cleansing Wipes- $5
Maybelline Color Whsiper- $5
Rimmel Apocalypse Lip Gloss- $5
Nail Art Tools- F21 – $5
L’Oreal Eyeliner- Marshall’s – $2.50
I definitely feel like I picked up some good bargains! I love shopping in Target in the states. Do you guys go cross border shopping? What’s your recent purchases?
