yesterday's damages & a giveaway win

 

hi guys! yesterday was super fun, i took my mom and mother in law out shopping. they'd never been to ulta before and i had the wondrous 20% off [high-end] coupon. so we kinda went a little crazy...mostly me though. my mom was in the market for a new kabuki powder brush, and somehow i convinced her to get a real techniques expert face brush. she didn't like their kabuki, but she liked how dense the e.f.b. was. my mother in law is not so adventurous when it comes to makeup brands, she's strictly a bare minerals person. she got a foundation, high shine eye color, and the new lash domination mascara (somewhat adventurous!), and two bottles of china glaze polish.

what i got: 
amazon: nyx lipstick in vitamin (needed a little extra for free shipping & sent it to in-laws' house with hubz' b'day present)
ulta: cnd (buy 2 get 1) stickey base coat, air dry topcoat, & solar oil; simple face care starter kit, eye makeup remover liquid & wipes, protecting light moisturizer; revlon colorstay concealer in light, maybelline sunbaked neutrals palette
big lots: elf blending eye brush
rite aid: simple soothing eye balm

sunbaked neutrals, concealer in light, vitamin lipstick


then, after ulta, we went over to charming charlie's. my mother in law had never heard of it and we had to drag her in. she found a shirt and a bracelet she really liked. mom didn't get anything, but she convinced me to get this wallet. i don't have a little wallet that can fit my phone, to have on the go with a couple cards and some cash. so this one is pretty nice and i liked the studs a lot. annnnd you can easily access your phone through the window on the back. also, there's enough room in there that i don't have to take my black phone case off! sweet! and this bracelet had to come home with me. it was calling me...yes. ($15 wallet & $10 bracelet)



afterward, we went over to office max and i found my desk chair! this one was a lot cheaper than the one i picked out at office depot and it was on sale! i got it for $80 (reg. $130). i love it!

giveaway win: mid-june, i was informed that i won part of a giveaway on popsugar's youtube, for benefit cosmetics' the rich is back! palette, a bene tint & high beam. and it finally came in yesterday! w00t! i'm super excited about the pigmentation of this palette. i'm not sure how frequently i'll use the blue, but that combination of neutrals is stunning.
