My "what the heck was I thinking???" haul

Girls, this is my grand Ottawa haul. Let's go step-by-step:

1) I got stuck in minneapolis for a night so I went to the mall of america and bought some goodies that were not liquid and I culd take in my carry on bag since I pretty much knew they were going to loose my luggage.. ended up buying more than I needed. LOL. Also bought a lipgloss and hid it in my bag hehehe. Bad, bad!

From MAC: 45 wipes since I had no cleanser with me; VGVI l/s and l/g (ohhhh my!!!! lovely!); concealer pencil since I had no liquid concealer with me; Beige-ing shadestick since I had no paints or CCB, Shell CCB, sharpener.

From benefit: Mr. feelgood primer since it is the only solid primer I could find. Didnt like it very much though. Also got a lip plumper pencil, more for the color since it doesnt really plump. LOL

From Bare Escentuals: Buzz latte lip balm (ohhhhh gosh, it smells so good, it's a great product!), Glimmers in hottie (darker) and In the buff (lighter).

From Bobbi Brown: Shimmer brick in Rose; e/s (diamond dust) in Gilded (OH MY!!! What a lovely golden shade!!!)

2) Then I went to MAC in Ottawa and got: Azreal blue pigment; Jubilee and Snob lipsticks, lightshade and slip pink e/s, and another e/s whose name I cant remember now. LOL

3) I went to Inglot which is a Canadian MAC wannabe (LOL), got a lipgloss duo in Cappucino (lovely!), a retractable lip brush and this wonderful blush brush that had a small highlither brush on the other side!!! I absolutely love this brush!

4) Jamie was playing golf so I had a MAC makeover and ended up buying some things.... Blacktrack fluidline and another golden fluidline whose name I cant remember LOL (EDIT: I remember now, it is Brassie); Shroom and Light brown matte e/s; prep+prime lash, 266 and 239 brushes, Bronze and Braden; and Cute yet sexy lip Varnishes (love it!)

5) I went to a drugstore and bought a Quo foundation brush and Quo light diffusing fundation in medium beige (just for variety LOL), La Roche Posay Anthelios SPF 45, 2 Eye creams/stick from Vichy and one face cream from Vichy.

6) Went to Bobbi brown and got the Gold Shimmer brick compact, a tinted moisturizer in medium (love it!), and an e/s in golden pink. I got free samples of the buffing grains for face (absolutely LOVE it, will have to buy the real stuff); an eye cream and a face base, all pretty good!

7) At Lancome I bought the fatale mascara and got a free sample of an e/s quad and a free sample of the Hypnose mascara.

Cute yet sexy is lovely, it is a light p[eachy shade, reminds me of charm factor l/s. All the lip varnishes were super dark though. I think I may end up buying the pink one too.

It gives an amazing deal of lenght and separation but no volume whatsoever. I will have to combine it with another mascara for volume...

Dang girl!!!!! That´s a huge haul!!!!

great haul!

Play time! Looks like you are gonna be in makeup heaven for a while. Congrats!

Fabulous haul Thais! How are you liking the Shimmer bricks? I saw tht gold one when I went to BB and couldn't justify buying three shimmer bricks at once. I know that I am going to regret it.

Tell us about the Diamond Dust? They didnt have it at my counter.

The diamond dust is a fab shade; but it is a very light pale gold color, more of a highlight color; if you need to use it on your lid you need to apply several layers to get a more intense color.Now, after I went home I almost kicked myself for buying this product; because I realized that it looks EXACTLY the same as the lighter shade in the Illusionary/Burning ambition mineralize e/s duo from MAC! They are exactly the same except that the MAC one has a little bit more yellow to it, just a bit. Check it out:
