I recently renewed my VIB status at Sephora, and with it, received a 10% off discount on my next purchase. I also had a Sephora gift card burning a hole in my pocket! The great thing about those coupons is that you can use them once online and once in-store. This works out great for me because the closest Sephora to me is a Sephora in JCP, and those don't have the full range of products like a stand alone store does, or like the website. During the VIB sale (which was 15% off), I went into Sephora for one thing in particular, but it was sold out. Every summer, Sephora in JCP comes out with a Sephora Favorites Summer Obsessions kit that is exclusive to Sephora in JCP. They usually come with a makeup bag and quite a few items, from deluxe to full sizes. I bought the one last year, and really wanted this years! They put me on the waitlist and then called me once it came in so I could pick it up. Here's what this year's looks like:
The cost is $39 and you get a FULL-SIZE Beauty Blender Pro ($19.95) and a FULL-SIZE Nars lipgloss in Turkish Delight ($26). Those two products alone cost more than the entire kit! Also included is a travel size of the Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes, a deluxe sample size of Benefit's Watt's Up, a travel size Tarte Amazonian Clay blush in Fearless, a travel size Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer, and travel size Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray ($14). Plus the makeup bag! I needed a new Beauty Blender and I've wanted Turkish Delight for years, so this was perfect! Here are swatches of the bronzer, blush, highlighter, and lip gloss:
That is actually the only thing I picked up in-store. The other things were ordered online, and here's a shot of those!
One other item I wanted during the VIB sale was the Clinique Cheek Pop in Pink Pop, which was (in)conveniently out of stock during the entire sale. I managed to snag that, as well as the Urban Decay Primer Potion in Enigma, a 100 point perk which was the Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear Brow Gel (travel size), a Makeup Forever 100 point perk of their new Artist Plexi Gloss in 202, 100 point perk of Caudalie's Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet, another of the Soap & Glory Hand Food lotions (no longer on the Sephora website), and since I needed a matte dark brown, long-wearing eyeliner, I picked up the Sephora Contour Eye Pencil in Tiramisu. I have heard great things about this formulation, and I haven't quite found that "perfect" brown yet. I got some great samples to try out, as well! Coffeebreakwithdani was singing the praises of Urban Decay's Enigma because 100% of the proceeds go to empower women. I am all for women empowerment! I haven't had a chance to try most of this out yet (which is why this is a haul and not a review) since I haven't worn makeup since the eventful ER trip. Trust me, I'm more shocked than anyone that I haven't worn a stitch of makeup in five days. I'm breaking it all back out tomorrow though!!
