A Quick Haul from Sephora!

Greetings!

It's been a while since I came to you all with a haul and it is a bit misleading considering I have purchased makeup since my last beauty haul posted here on the blog, forgive me, I will do better.  :) It's almost finals time and soon that will be occupying all of my time so I figured I'd come to you all with the fruit of my retail therapy. 

During this time of year brands repackage some of their bestsellers in gift form so that the newbie or even the expert can have a taste of what's been talked about the most this past year.  Of course I'm down for the cause since I love a value so I chose to partake in the new Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics mini lip tar sets, you could four miniature lip tars for just $20!  These babies normally range for $18 each in regular size, yeah, you may not get as much product but you do get to try three more than you normally would for just two bucks extra! The colors that come in the gift set are Memento, NSFW, Anime, and Black Dahlia (my current fave!).

I also decided to go ahead and purchase the mini Lorac Tantalizer bronzer, I saw the big one and made the clutch decision that I didn't need THAT much bronzer, lol.  The price differential was also a swaying factor me as well, this wonderful bronzer was only $7!

Sephora by O.P.I. Keep Me on My Misletoes, Even in the Summertime

Greetings!

In case you all haven't noticed I have been writing as a beauty reviewer for The Style And Beauty Doctor lifestyle blog.  You can find me there sometimes reviewing the latest on what's hot and what's not too hot in beauty!  Recently, I was sent a nail polish to review that I am sure you all would LOVE!  Stand back and take a look at all this glory....

What we have here is a super metallic champagne gold color that is sure to capture the gaze of many this summer.  Metallics are definitely on trend for this summer as they serve as an elegant contrast to the soft pastels that we all will be wearing this summer.  It only took me two coats of application to get this opacity and the dry time was fairly quick, about 15 minutes.  I would totally recommend this color to be worn year round, not just in the summer or the obvious, at your Christmas parties this season!

Do you have this color?  Do you love it?  Tell me in the comments!
