I Was Bad Again: Another Haul

For some reason, the other day I decided it was time to knock off a few of the items on my ever-growing "products to pick up" list.  Probably because I had gone at least a solid week without purchasing any type of cosmetic product and it was killing me.

Most of the damage was done at Shopper's (a Canadian drugstore for my non-Canadian friends) but I also managed to give my bank card a workout at Sephora and Lush.

I'm planning on reviewing most of the products I purchased at Lush, so to avoid being redundant, I am leaving those as a surprise for next time.

I'm also planning a little review and compare of a few of the products pictured above, so stay tuned for that!

So starting my little reign of terror at Shopper's, I picked up a L'Oreal Color Infallible Eyeshadow in Hourglass Beige.  In my recent drugstore favourites (which you can check out HERE) I mentioned the colour Iced Latte as one of my favourites. If you were wondering if the two colours are the same, they sort of are; you probably don't need both.  But for some reason I felt like I did.

I finally got my hands on a Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfecter in (01), a rosy pink shade. 

Next were two colours from Maybelline's new Vivids collection in (870) Shocking Coral and (895) On Fire Red.  I am really excited to try these and if they are particularly good or bad, I'll be sure to do a review with swatches. So far, I've noticed they smell a bit like fruit-scented Play Dough.  So take from that what you will.

Covergirl Clump Crusher Mascara was the next to make it into my basket.  I usually am not one to branch out mascara-wise, but spidery, clumpy lashes are one of my biggest annoyances, so I decided to give it a go.

I also picked up two more shades of Maybelline Baby Lips in Yummy Plummy  and Coral Crush.

Moving on to Sephora, where I was very pleased with my restraint.  I picked up a gift for a friend and for myself a YSL Glossy Stain in 10, a gorgeous red.  In my Lipstick Alternatives post, I mentioned that I had a couple of L'Oreal's Aqua Lip Lacquers which are supposed to be a dupe for YSL's Glossy Stains.  It was killing me a little bit that I hadn't even tried to original so I gave in.  

Finally, I just wanted to share with you this friggin' amazing 100 point gift Sephora is currently giving out!

Look at this!! 

Yes that is a full sized Benefit High Beam ($30 CDN)! For (sort of) free.  Even though I already have one of these and it will likely last me quite a while, I just love getting full-sized products for free.  It also came with a Benetint and a mini the POREfessional primer, which I have been wanting to try.  This is definitely one of Sephora's better moves in my opinion.

So that is (mostly) all of the damage I did.  I hope you got some enjoyment out of my complete lack of willpower.
