Haul: Sephora (friends & family sale)

I received a coupon from Sephora in the mail a couple of days ago for 20% off everything in the store. The sale only went on for a few days.. so I made sure to rush over last night an hour before they closed to buy a few things. I wish I would of written down a list before I went.. I walked in having no idea what I was looking for.

Here is what I ended up getting -


Nars Madly Blush ($28) is described on the Nars website as a seashell pink. I would describe it as a warm, soft pinked mauve. I originally thought it was going to be too light and not show up on my skin tone.. but it actually really surprised me and warmed up very nicely to my skin tone. I think its such a flattering color and perfect for every day! I think it's my new favorite blush.





Sephora #2 Cute Caramel Nano Lip Liner ($5) is the perfect warm, soft pink. A great shade to pair with any nude, pink or peach lipstick. 



I wore it today with my OCC Cha Cha lip tar and it was perfect!

And lastly, these were complete impulse buys.. (as everything else). Two Sephora brand eye shadows. The trio is called "Sunbaked No. 2" and the single is called "Glittering Sand No. 9." I couldn't resist swatching them in the store and they are so shimmery and pigmented! They are perfect for all over lid colors. Can't wait to try them out.. :)

I'm overall really satisfied with my purchases! Did you end up getting anything from the sale??
