My Sephora Friends & Family Haul!
I didn’t place my Sephora order until the day before the Friends & Family Event was supposed to expire and finally just got my shipment last week! I bought a boatload of goodies to give as gifts this season with a couple of items sprinkled in there just for me.
Here’s what I stocked up on for myself:
My new favorite weekly treatment – Philosophy’s Microdelivery Peel
Laura Mercier’s Tinted Moisturizer in Nude and Donna Karan Cashmere Mist Eau de Parfum in a Rollerball. The rollerball only comes around once in a while and this is the first time I took advantage of getting one because it’s so easy to carry around in your purse!
And finally, gifts for my friends and family:
Philosophy’s Birthday Girl and Amazing Grace sets
Philosophy’s Birthday Girl
Philosophy’s Amazing Grace
Bliss’ Snow Suit gift set…
And, cute gloss sets from Tarte, Bourjois, and The Balm as well as the Marc Jacobs Solid Daisy Perfume Ring I saw on CityChic a couple of weeks ago. Keep an eye out because some of these gifts might show up during my “12 Days of Giveaways” sweepstakes!
The Balm and Bourjois gloss sets
Marc Jacobs Daisy and Tarte glosses
Did you take advantage of this great event? What goodies arrived in your mailbox from Sephora?

Let us know how the microdermabration peel goes! I’m addicted to masks/exfoliation!
I got… way too much lol - amongst which are the T3 evolution hair dryer and duality iron that I LOVE! I also stocked up on some Fresh stuff that I am addicted to as well as Nars makeup. And xmas presents of course ;).

Hey there!
I actually did a review on the Microdelivery Peel on the site a couple of months ago and I love it!

Sounds like you made out pretty well too! I’ve heard so much about the T3 but I’m pretty low maintenance when it comes to my hair.
The Fresh line also looks divine but I haven’t tried anything yet. What’s your favorite from them?

Hi Divine,
You should definitely check out the peel if you can. My skin definitely feels softer immediately after I use it. Talk about instant gratification!
Hope your day is going well!

wow! that looks like a great haul. i wasn’t too happy with my sephora FF haul and had to return a couple of items and only ended up keeping two things! I’ve always wanted the Birthday Girl set because the little vinyl bag is so cute , whoever’s receiving that gift must be lucky

Haha Nilla let’s go shopping together! Or shall I say let’s go broke together?! I love shopping! wOoot! More brushes, new things are always nice…yeah let me know if you like any of them, if I had to pick one though, I cannot live without my blending brush!
On December 13th, 2007 nilla cookie said:
Yeah Vanessa! I’d love to go shopping with you! You can help me come out of my shell and try bolder colors!
I’m definitely going to pick up a new blush brush and probably the blending brush.

Sorry your haul didn’t turn out as you expected, Petite. But at least you got to keep a couple things for yourself, which is never bad.
I hope she likes her Birthday Girl gift too, but I can’t say who it is on the site…
