I just received my package early last week of the stuff I ordered
during Sephora's Friends and Family sale. I purchased four items. This was the
most exciting out of all my Sephora purchases. Why you ask? Because I ordered
from brand I have never tried before! I have heard nothing but good, no, GREAT
things about these brands and finally got the guts to try them myself.
I will start with Benefit's Dandelion blush. The package
says it is "Finely spun with delicate mauves and pinks, this exquisite
brightening face powder leaves a petal like finish. This is my first real
Benefit product. I received a sample of Girl Meets Pearl, but I have not tried
that yet. I was looking for a very light sugary sweet pink blush and I found
everything I wanted in this.
Next I picked up two products from NARS. I was initially
looking to pick up Orgasm but when I was reading through reviews I decided to
pick up Deep Throat instead. Someone had said it was a less shimmery version of
Orgasm so I thought why not? I wasn't really in the market for anything too
shimmery and I felt this would fill that spot. Deep Throat is peach with
shimmer.
The other NARS product I picked up I totally just picked up
on a whim. Honestly I mostly bought it because of the name, but I also think
that this could be a totally wearable everyday shade for me. Drum roll
please...I present to you...NARS BARBARELLA!!!
Barbarella is a sheer peach.
Last but not least I picked up a Makeup Forever eye shadow
in none other than Purple 92. This color has been calling my name for months
and I finally gave in. Who can say no to a matte bright purple!?
What did you end up picking up from the F+F sale? How was
your first time trying a brand new brand?
