Haul: MAC Superglass
Excited for: Mother’s Day, I suppose, since I’ll get to see my parents on Sunday 🙂 Too bad I have a final to study for and a paper to write today and tomorrow so I can spend Sunday with them!
Haul:
For mom: Guerlain meteorites and bodyshop body butter in coconut, pink grapefruit and shea butter.
for me: MAC mineralize foundation SPF 15, Ladyblush, stila smudgepot.
I feel like I wanna get a smudgepot or a paintpot in purple. But can’t find out. Is Sheseido’s cream shadow any good?
Scored a bunch of the Dylan’s Candy Bar Bath & Body items at TJ Maxx!
Haul: MAC Humid Eyeshadow 😀
Excited: About sleeping in and tomorrows linocut printmaking session, going to be making mothers day bookmarks and cards.
Urban Decay eyeshadow in Aquarius, Haight, and Dashiki, China Glaze in Four Leaf Clover, OPI DS Mystery, Earth Therapeutics Aloe Vera & Kiwi body scrub. Looking forward to picking up the OPI Shrek collection and taking my Mommy out to dinner after work on Sunday.
Hi Christine! Happy Friday! My last haul was MAC Liberty of London. I’m holding out for their summer collection which cannot be here soon enough. I have really high hopes for their body oil!
Cheers, Elizabeth B
Hauled my FIRST ever Chanel Glossimer!! I got it in bikini peach. I am so in LOVE! Seriously…I think this may have to trump my Shu Uemura glosses.

From the papier collection I got the peach paint pot, 2 lipsticks, 1 lipglass and a blush. From the Chanel collection I bought the Nouveau nail varnish, genial and super lipstick and the pop fluo gloss. Phew! 🙂
Haul: Chanel Rouge Coco in Egerie: a soft, slightly pink tinged coral on my lips.

I have some back to mac stuff so, I’ll plan on picking up either a dazzeglass in Moth to Flame or an eyeshadow in Straw Harvest if it’s still available at the MAC store. Also need some facial cleanser so, I may go ahead and get the gel cleanser (the green one) as well.
Excited about Mother’s Day as well. Going to church and then a movie with my three year old and I may cook a home made soul food dinner.
Happy mother’s day to all the mothers.

Makeup haul: Nothing… so far. I want to pickup some of the OPI Shrek nailpolish colletion but am not sure it’s out yet.
Also, I need a new eyeliner (what’s a good replacement for Estee Lauder’s Double Wear Zero-Smudge Liquid Eyeliner???)
Non-makeup haul: Hardwood floors + new couches!!!! 🙂
Exited for: TGIFF! Yes, I put an additional F in there! lol We will be looking at paint combos this weekend as the bf and I are taking some days off next week to paint + install our hardwoods. And Mother’s Day will be fun as I get to hang out with my mom. 🙂
have not hauled in a LONG TIME, but i am looking forward to mac’s To the Beach collection.
I finished all my undergraduate course work yesterday!
Yesterday I finally received 4 Urban Decay pigments that I got at the HauteLook sale a while back!
This week finals finished for me, and on Saturday I’m going to chocolate festival with some friends! Crazy thing though- it snowed here in Colorado in May! 😛
Found the last Lancome pop n green quad, groupie lipstick, teal kiss eyeliner, hypnose drama excessive black, had to have: smashbox heartbreaker pallette kiss n tell, baked starlight, lip shine melon drama and berry hot, urban decay naked,estee lauder gloss stick wild plum and lip gloss wild orchid and shiseido perfect rouge tender sheer rs326.
Wanting urban decay summer palette and waiting for Mac back to the beach collection…
Scored some Pret-a-Papier stuff: Instant Chic blush, both nail lacquers and a Chromographic Pencil!
Ah, it wasn’t really much of a haul, but I finally purchased Chanel Genial. It’s so cute and perfect for summer!
Otherwise, I’ll be chilling in my apartment studying all week!
My latest mini haul was a Chanel Rouge Allure lipstick in “Comedia” and a Chanel Glossimer in “Courtisane” Loving both!!
Haul: My MAC package arrived in the mail today. It included Cherish and Vegas Volt lippies, plus Beautiful Iris and Nocturnelle shadows. I love most of them, but I’m not too crazy about Cherish. It’s quite brown, which doesn’t look great with my fair, rosy skintone. Topping it off with a gloss helps, however.
Haul: Bobbi Brown blush brush, Bobbi Brown eye liner (Caviar), Bobbi Brown Calypso Glaze metallic lip colour (yeah for a coral that NW20 can wear!), Clinique Happy Heart gift set (perfume, body cream, body wash)
Excited for: Not so much – my sister and nieces are leaving after a visit of 3 and a half weeks – going back to Australia (I live in South Africa) and I’m not sure when I’ll be seeing them again 🙁
It’s been a very BIG week for me hauling-wise. 🙂
Firstly I got several items from Pret-A-Papier and To The Beach. (TTB is only out online in the UK, coming to the counters next Thursday, but they’re already sending the otders out. Will go back next week to check out the e/s and lipsticks and lipglosses I didn’t order (only got Thrills l/s and Splashing l/g (plus Marine Life and Hipness)).)
Secondly – very excited about this – I finally found a BNIB Guerlain Meteorites Voyage Powder in Midnight Diamond that I’d been wanting for AGES! I had to pay full price for it (ouch!), but I really really wanted it. Now I just have to wait a few days for it to arrive. 🙂
I also picked up a few other things including 6 new L’Oreal Glam Shine glosses (love them), Chanel Glossimer in Bikini Peach and a free Chanel Genial lipstick (free with my Boots point). 🙂 Oh and few things from the new L’Occitane make up collection and Body Shop summer collection.
For the first time in a LONG time I have no haul 🙁 I had to put myself on a no buy for makeup since I was buying wayyy to much all the time lol…so I’m not allowing myself to buy any makeup until the to the beach collection and then none again until the digi pops : (
Haul: 3 Body Shop shadows in Pink Champagne, Baby Pink and Violet Shimmer; Mac’s Lala and Expensive Pink shadows and Just Superb cremesheen glass!
Excited for: Going out for mother’s day dinner tomorrow, playing with my new makeup and doing some baking.
Haul: Urban Decay: Pigments from Haute Look: Baked, X, Asphyxia, Rockstar & Gunmetal,
Mac: Prep and Prime Lip, Sugar Overload Super Glass, Stars & Rockets Eyeshadow, Star Violet Eyeshadow.
ive been very good all i have bought is a lip scrub from lush. (its so yummy! but it probably isnt very healthy to be eating it like this :)] im saving up for to the beach 🙂
I want to get this! do you love it?
Dolce and Gabbana Lipstick in Soiree
Chanel in Madamoisselle Lipstick (SP?) lol
MAC Superglass in Cherry Electric and Superflash!
YSL Faux Cils Mascara Black
Badgal Mascara black
Diorshow Iconic mascara in Chestnut
And Benetint Lip Balm.
Right now I am awaiting FEDex for the D and G and Channel L/s’s …It’s hard though when you bought them on your parents card without them knowing and you at least want to hide that you got them as long as you can…Waiting here looking out for delivery is not easy on the nerves lol…I just had to have them though.
This week I bought:
YSL lipstick No1
Mac Pearlglide eyeliner in Blackline
Mac eyeshadows in Sumptuous Olive, Ricepaper, Quarry, Shadowylady & Gorgeous Gold
15 Pro palatte from MAC
I finally got my hands on Industrial and Blackline, plus picked up Humid and Seedy Pearl e/s and Bare Study paint pot. It seems a bit stiff and a tad diffcult to apply but I shall persevere. I’ve only done one look with it so far (for work yesterday) and it lasted so well. Just wish it was a bit softer and more creamy to apply.
Oh well. Picked up an Estee Lauder e/s palette from strawberrynet, 7 lovely shades including pink, matte ivory, deep purple blue and a couple of browns. Gorgeous.
Plus a red Signature Hydra Lustre listick, double ended wand with Double Wear mascara and concealer and a Pearl High Gloss. Very pretty!
Oh and a Bourjois e/s duo, a warm shimmery pink and bright iridescent violet. Surprisingly good pigmentation and very soft and smooth to apply. I ordered a Bourjois mascara and metallic eyeliner set, that should arrive next week.
Excited for a friends 30th birthday party tonight – I am making 2 dozen cupcakes today and wearing a fabulous black cocktail dress tonight – gonna do a smoky gold eye and red lip!
I got Circa Plum Pigment and Fairylite Pigment, Archetype Paint Pot, a free birthday kit from Sephora, and a free 500 point gift with lots of Korres goodies in it. I’ve been pretty good, for me, this week. =)
Oh yeah! I’m sooooooo excited for the end of exams and no more school! =D Now begins the wedding planning!
I got Viva Glam Gaga lipstick which looks a little pornstar on me since im of a darker skin tone, so i can’t wear it but i still feel good about buying it since it does go to a good cause. Also got Estee Lauder More Then Mascara which is LOVE!! It lengthens and defines which is awesome! Also I got Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow in Samba-dy to Love which is pretty but it does crease soo kinda defeats da purpose lol and the Benefit girl was soo nice and gave me a free lipstick in Sugar Cookie which is now my new favorite lipstick!!
Im excited for this big dance tonight that im going wit a couple of friends so dat should be fun! 🙂 Good luck on ur school Christine! Ur such a hard worker 🙂
I bought the Sephora OPI Nail Lacquer in Read My Palm and Essie in Splash of Grenadine. Oh and I completely forgot about the MAC Superglass, darn it! I wanted to pick up Cherry Electric.
Here’s my April/May 2010 haul!http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd282/Disneytwinmom/IMG_4513.jpg
I hauled the new Too Faced nude lipliner & Glamour Glosses in Flirt & Sex Pot(all from Summer 2010). They are currently offering a 30% discount on their website: code TFDC30. Got another Glamour Gloss at Ulta in Pillow Talk. These are fabulous products; great pigmentation, minty cool flavor and very pretty colors (some with shimmer, some matte). I also hauled (thanks to this website) my first ever Rouge G in Guerlainade. Horribly pricy, but a 10% discount at Sephora knocked it down by $4. It is gorgeous; could become an HG very quickly for me.
I just ordered a bunch of stuff online, 4 backups (not kidding!) of black line because it literally became a new staple, undercurrant pearlglide, zinc zone, dirty and the black shade of greasestick, bare study paint pot, utter fun lipstick and dollymix blush. PLUS chanel glossimer in venus, rouge allure laque in phoenix and laura mercier lipstick in hydrangea. (i may have been a little inspired by your summer season posts!!)
it’s definitely a lot, however it’s probably the last big make up purchase i’ll make for a while soooooo it’s okay, right?
I’ve purchased way too much.
Urban Decay Big Buddha brush, 24/7 Superstash, 24/7 Stereophonic, 24/7 Hi-Fi, too many pigments to mention (11 of them, in fact)
Mac Liberty of London A Different Groove lipglass , Deep Plum blush and my first Fluidline in Blacktrack and a 208 angled brow brush.
And then a trip to CCO where I picked up Mac Stark Naked blush, Pen n Pink eye shadow, Rollickin’ paint pot and Beelightful iridescent powder.
My wallet is weeping.
My Chanel counter finally received the summer collection so I picked up the Rouge Allure in Genial, and the nail polishes in Nouvelle Vague and Mistral! I wandered around Sephora earlier this week considering other things but managed to walk out without buying anything…so I’m proud of my self control. LOL.
Last night my boyfriend bought me Chanel Double Perfection Compact. I tried it on and loved it. I had to wait almost 3 weeks for it! They were out and had to order more. It was worth the wait! 🙂 Replacing La Mer loose powder.
This weekend I am cleaning, didn’t have time and was so tired during the week cause long work hours – tons of overtime! yay!!! LOL! 🙂 oh and seeing my mom tomorrow to take her out to lunch.
I hauled for essentials i was sad i had to put all my make up in storage i hope all my lippies dont melt!
i got this week
Nars Sheerglow, loving it so far
NArs Primer
Benefit High Beam
oh the beauty blender! I am loving it! Best tool ever! Better application then any brush, still love my mac brushes tho lol
Chanel black velvet np
China Glaze for audrey np
China Glaze peachy keen np
I’m about to order schiap (thanks to you :D)
Oh I’m late! But this week I turned in my Zoya Exchange polishes (12, and the new ones are supposed to get here Monday!! :D), caved on their 3 free Hot Lips glosses promo (so I only paid shipping), and I bought two R&R blushes off Editor’s Closet (with $30 in credits so I paid $19). I think I did a pretty good job at not overspending this week and I’m SUPER excited for everything to get here! 😀
Since Pret A Papier and To The Beach launched simultaneously here in the UK, I spent rather more than I wanted to, but I’ve learned from past experience that you have to order straight away to be sure of getting the items you want.
I got Coral Crepe Paint Pot, Chromagraphic Pencil, Instant Chic blush and Made To Order lipstick, Firecracker eyeshadow, Float On By and Rosemary & Thyme eye pencils, Thrills lipstick and Hipness blush.
The Marine Life powder and the 131 brush sold out very quickly (I didn’t want them anyway) so when they come out where you are, if you want them you’d best get in there quickly. With the Pret A Papier, the Groundwork Paint Pot is the only thing that has sold out so far.
Almost forgot – I also got Too Faced’s Pink Leopard Bronzing Powder and Too Faced Eyeshadow Insurance Policy which has the Shadow Insurance plus 6 eyeshadows. Each came with a free pink makeup bag containing a mini Lash Injection, a mini Mirror Mirror Lipgloss in Don’t Hate Me and a mini Starry Eyed Liner in Mad Mad Love. I got these online from Boots, and the offer was supposed to be one free gift when you spend over £20 on Too Faced, but it’s given me a freebie for EACH £20 spent on Too Faced. I’m not complaining 🙂
Oh, and I won a Benefit Lipgloss in Fresh Squeezed through Cadbury Flake (code on inside of wrapper, entered on website for instant win).
It’s a lovely colour and smells really peachy too.
I now have 2 lippies and this gloss all won from Flake, and another gloss on the way 🙂 I love freebies and prizes!
