Lush, MAC, OPI, & NYX Haul!

After months of holding myself back, I finally let loose and got a large haul thanks to wonderful Black Friday deals that extended all weekend. The wait was seriously worth it as I saved quite a bit of moolah. I'll review of all these items once I've tried them out but for now, enjoy the haulage:

MAC Strobe Lotion
MAC sharpener (for Engraved
MAC Select Cover-Up in NC45
MAC Moisturelush Cream sample (which I may add the stingy makeup counter lady was unwilling to part with because "people take advantage of it"...as I am checking out...with a boatload of makeup...WTF)
NYX Jumbo eye pencil in French Fries
NYX Lipgloss in Ice Princess (which I've been using this relentlessly and may hit pan at a record speed)

Lush Grease Lightning
Lush Sea vegetable soap
Lush Dark Angels
Lush Whoosh Shower Jelly


A Grape Fit; You Don't Know Jacques!; Barefoot in Barcelona


This is love. Go buy it now.

Can't wait to review these products for you guys! Which ones would you like me to review first?


Also, a HUGE thank you to Beautygirl24, The Beautifier, xcharleym0ox and Krystle for the blog awards they've recently given me. I'm so grateful for every single one, and I promise to post it up ASAP. Just want to say thanks here. You guys are so awesome. :)

Ok Lush it is! I'll do Dark Angels and Grease Lightning first as I've already used it a lot this week. The Whoosh and sea vegetable have not yet been used because I'm "preserving them" hehehe.

Ashwini said...

@Cynthia: the sales assistant at the Macy's MAC counter was being mega-reluctant to give me a sample of the Moisturelush Cream. She claimed they stopped giving out samples because people took advantage of it. I mean I understand if someone isn't buying something and is trying to get several pigment samples, which would last you forever. But here I was checking out with 3 MAC products, and asking for a moisturizer sample which might last me a week, and she was throwing a fuss. Finally she caved. Argh I HATE crappy sales assistants. Stick to Nordstrom, not Macy's for good SAs.

what a lovely haul! I think I should follow your lead and just save like crazy until I have enough money to completely let loose! I have a tendency to just buy a little bit at a time, but I do this frequently. Then I feel guilty for shopping all the time. I think I'm going to wait to do any hauling until after Christmas! You will have to let me know about the MAC moisture lush cream and the strobe lotion =)Oh and you'll love the NYX jumbo pencil. I use french fries a lot!

Ashwini said...

I agree totally. When I buy a little at a time, I feel guilty. This time, I knew I had saved up and was shopping during big sale time, so there was no guilt. I'm happy with every single purchase. :)

It seems I am the only one who has never tried a LUSH product....every make-up lover has tried it....*sad face*

amynaree said...

Oh and heyyy haha I have NYX JEP in French Fries for few years now.
And can't wait for your review on MAC moiturisers, and Lush Dark Angels... omg what a haul!! ;)

PS: the MAC SAs never give us any samples, do you have to ask for it? crappy MAC SAs not only where you live, here in Brisbane too... hahaha!
