Sephora Haul!




Just wanted to do a quick post on my latest Sephora haul. I am running out of my favorite liquid foundation Guerlain Meteorites Baby Glow. I pretty much use it every single day. The coverage is sheer but buildable and has 25 SPF coverage. My shade is 03 Medium. I was also running out of my Guerlain powder and decided to try something new. Sephora is currently sold out in the Meteorites Illuminating Powder compact all shades except for one. I'm sure they will restock soon though, it's an amazing powder. I'm kind of annoyed that when I was using it I accidentally had my brush too close to the compact and scraped it a little bit. 

That black mark is from my brush. 😢 
I use Light/2 Clair.


Also needed to replace my Beauty Blender. Does anyone else use these? I hate using my fingers and prefer a sponge. Some people swear by clean fingers is the better way to apply make up, but it's just easier for my to dab a sponge on my face. You do have to wash the Beauty Blender pretty often though. I think it's still worth it even so. Also got a free sample of Drunk Elephant's Protini Polypeptide Cream. So far it hasn't made me break out and I do enjoy the lightness of it. My current Clinique night moisturizer can feel a little too thick and heavy for summer time. I think once I run out of the sample I will buy a full sized jar. It's a little pricey, but I think worth it. 


My favorite item of the whole lot is Laura Mercier's Caviar Eye Stick Eye Shadow in Rush. It's a light metallic shimmer in purple/red that's buildable. I never use eye shadows anymore. They take up too much time to get just right and I don't have much skill when it comes to applying make up. These sticks are amazingly easy to use. The magnetic pink is also very pretty and has a metallic glittery sheen to it, similar to rush. Beam is my least favorite and I might return it. It's too light for me. 

I have not used the avocado hand mask yet, but I've been looking for something like this to use for the winters. They get dry super easily because of how much I wash my hands all day. I'm pretty excited to try this! 

Hope everyone had an awesome weekend! Here's to another week. Oh and just to give you guys an update, I placed a semi large order on Lululemon. Hopefully will have some reviews next week!

  1. Oo! Sephora is my other weakness. I always end up ruining my makeup products from scraping them or denting the powder with my brushes or even fingernails. I've just come to terms with that.

    1. I'm usually pretty careful, but just annoyed that it happened already! I just got it! #firstworldproblem, I know. LOL!

Review! Coach Soft Empire Carryall 40 Merlot

  I am super excited about this review! This has been the most anticipated Coach bag since The Rogue came out. At least for me. When I first saw this bag on the purseblog , my eyes widened and I was immediately obsessed. The Soft Empire Carryall comes in four sizes. Size 48 is ridiculously big, I cannot pull it off, but the 40? Perfect. Size 35 and 26 just doesn't give off the same wow factor. This bag is meant to be a statement piece and head turner. Kudos to Stewart Vevers for creating another hit that everyone will be obsessing over for a long time. I hear that more colors will be released soon, and I am hoping the distressed lived-in version will not be exclusive to size 48. In case it doesn't happen, I'll be using my Empire 40 as much as I can to give it a distressed look myself.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and please check out my video to see what fits! Coach Empire 40 Merlot This bag is huge, it's definitely the biggest bag in my collection. ...

Review! Balenciaga Rodeo Bag Size Small Plus Video

  You all know I love my bags, and as a Balenciaga collector, I don't often stray from the City and First style. The Rodeo (pronounced like Rodeo Drive) really caught my eye. It gives off a slouchy Hermes Kelly vibe, but way more practical to use.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. Balenciaga Rodeo Bag Small The Rodeo can be carried a few ways. It comes with a crossbody strap that is not adjustable but it is removable. Not sure why anyone wouldn't add a few extra holes to make a strap adjustable these days. Come on Balenciaga! Do better! The top handle is a bit too long for this to work anyhow, I feel like the top handle gets in the way. It sticks out and doesn't sit well in my opinion. I wouldn't carry this bag crossbody unless it was an unforeseen emergency and I really needed my hands free. This bag looks more chic carried by the handle or crook of the arm. It also looks nice left open with the help of the flap tucked in. The Rodeo resembles the Kelly bag ...

Fit Review! Aviator Nation Navy Hoodie 5 Stripe

  Is it already Monday? This weekend just flew by. For the first time since early 2020, I met up with a friendly neighbor and we went out for dim sum. At the end we hugged since I hadn't seen her in forever. I told her, "You're the first person I hugged since the pandemic started that isn't my husband!" 😄  For today's post, this is a hoodie I've been dying to try for months but kept putting it off because of the price tag. Aviator Nation is not cheap. Not a whole lot makes me pause because I'm used to seeing Lululemon hoodies priced at $128-$138. Aviator Nation comes in at a whopping $189.  For reference I'm 4 feet 11 and I am wearing a size XS in Aviator Nation. For Lululemon tops I typically wear a size 4. 5 Stripe Hoodie  Navy Size XS The interesting thing about Aviator Nation is their hoodies are unisex sizing. The available sizes are XS-XXL. The female model is shown wearing size XS while the male model is shown wearing size large. I took a c...
