Sharing on Thanksgiving (Sephora Haul)

Before I start rambling on, I wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you all enjoy a wonderful hearty meal and spend precious time with all your loved ones :) I would also like to give thanks to all my readers who have supported me and made blogging so much more meaningful. I love you all, and I hope I will be able to deliver more in the future.

I apologize for the lack of posts once again. I know I say this a lot but I really have no other excuse than that I have been busy with school and life. This quarter has been hectic. I'm usually out the door for school in the morning and I don't get back until 7-8PM. When I get home, I only really have time to eat, do homework, and sleep. That doesn't leave me a lot of time to worry about blogging as much as I love sharing with you guys. Adding to that, I still have yet to figure out a lighting set up that will allow me to take good quality pictures in my room that is horribly lit. If you guys haven't already noticed, I am really big on taking good quality pictures for you guys and I just can't bring myself to deliver badly lit photos. I hope you all understand where I am coming from.

For the holidays, I am planning to perhaps do another giveaway like I did last year, but I have not figured out all the logistics of it yet. When I do, I will surely let you all know. I am also thinking about giving my blog a makeover, but I will see how time will work in my favor this coming winter break.

Now finally to the main point of this post. I wanted to share with you all my Sephora Friends&Family and V.I.B Event haul. I hope you guys aren't tired or sick of all my haul posts T^T but they are a lot easier for me to do than reviews, especially since I am so limited on time these days.

For the F&F sale I got the highly raved Laura Mercier Translucent Powder, 2 packs of the Boscia Peppermint Blotting Papers, and Sephora by OPI's 'Looks Like Rain, Dear'. Haven't tried everything yet so I can't say much, but I am going to paint my nails later with the new polish! :D

Looks so gorgeous and it just totally reminded me of Catherine from Strawberry Mochi. :D

As for the V.I.B Event, I went with one of my good friends. The Sephora I went to, I felt lacked a a little in preparation. There were so many people and they ran out of totes very quickly. I still had fun, nonetheless, with my friend. We were both on the hunt for the perfect red lipstick for the holidays. We literally scrambled through the entire store swatching every red lip product in sight. Our hard work paid off in the end :)

We both picked up the NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in 'Cruella'. It's the perfect matte scarlet red color. One of the MA's even stopped me to comment on how good it looked on my lips after I had tried it on. I was instantly sold! I also wanted a more moisturizing red lipstick that wasn't matte and the MA recommended me Givenchy's Rouge Interdit Satin Lipstick in '20 Illicit Raspberry'. Totally fell in love with it so I picked that up too. I have tried it and it is definitely a great lipstick. Last but not least, I picked up my first NARS eyeshadow in the infamous Galapagos. I'm sure you all already know what that looks like so I didn't take a photo of that.

So that was pretty much my haul. Gotta love Sephora's sales! I hope you all enjoyed the post, and since I spent way too much time on it than I planned to, I really need start working on some homework now.
