HAUL┊ Sephora VIB Rouge Sale

So I know I'm supposed to be on a no-buying ban but the Sephora VIB Rouge Sale was just too tempting for me to pass up. I did control myself, picking up only 3 things for myself (the other two items are for my mom). The 4x bonus points was a good deal :D

I griped a lot when I hit VIB Rouge and this is a continuation of a previous post where I talked about the gifts I received for hitting VIB Rouge. Anyhoo, enough blabbing--let's get into the haul!

Sooooo many bloggers talked about this little lippie so I had to try out one. With 16 colors available, I had a hard time picking. I eventually left with Dior Addict Fluid Stick in 689 Vertigo. This is my first luxury brand lip product and I'm excited to report that this is a major hit with me! It goes on glossy but dries down to a comfortable semi-matte stain. Eating and drinking does not disturb this color too much. It wears down evenly so there isn't awkward lip ring action going on here. Scent-wise, it isn't unpleasant nor is it overpowering. The vibrant pink is bright but not neon, so it's perfect for summertime. I forgot about it for a while but I will definitely be pulling it out more often now! The only thing standing between me and more of these babies is the price. At $35USD each, these Fluid Sticks are quite a pretty penny. Still, my eyes can't stop looking at 893 Trompe L'Oeil, a raspberry plum shade.

FOTD┊I'm "Fall"-ing for You: Autumn Bridal Makeup with Lover.ly!

Autumn Bridal Makeup 

 I'm a bit too young to be thinking about this but in an effort to provide diverse content on my blog, I present to you all an autumnal bridal makeup tutorial, "I'm 'FALL''-ing for You"!. Since we're beginning fall here in the Northern Hemisphere, I wanted to incorporate a lot of gold and copper to mimic the colors leave turn in fall. It's a bit metallic and shimmery but a matte look wasn't something I would personally want on my big day. Anyhoo, let's hop onto the tutorial!
