I'm back with the rest of my rather extravagant VIB Sale haul - you can see the face bits I picked up in the sale here. After I ordered the things I talked about on Tuesday, I thought about how many lip products I've had on my wishlist and somehow justified ordering four of them. They're all nudes, which I'm sure you're super surprised about (not).
The first one I got was the Surratt Beauty Lipslique Lipstick in Nu de Soleil. I'm on a bit of a Surratt kick lately (see my first impressions of other products here), and when I saw Estee Lalonde haul this shade I knew I needed it. It's quite a warm brown-y nude, but it's a sheer formula so it only adds a wash of that warmth. It looks so pretty on the lips, even on my cool-toned skin, and it's just the perfect fall nude. The formula of these is insane - it feels so luxurious and creamy on the lips, adding a glossy sheen without being sticky or tacky whatsoever. I'm going to need every color now, please (top of my list is Bandy - I would have gotten it instead of this one but it was sold out during the sale and it's taking all my self control to not order it right now since it's back in stock).
I also decided I needed one of the Guerlain KissKiss Creamy Satin Finish Lipsticks - I've had them on my list to try out ever since I read Eva Alt's Top Shelf on Into the Gloss. She just seems like the coolest ever, and I want basically everything she writes about on ITG. She didn't mention what color she uses, so I just looked up swatches and ended up getting Rosy Boop (369). I thought the name was cute and it's such a pretty pink shade - a bit different than the shades I normally go for. This adds the prettiest pink glow to the lips, and I just can't get enough of it. I'm wearing it on my lips in the picture I posted of my new tattoo on Instagram. It has a bit of shimmer in it, but it only makes the lips appear fuller, not frosty. It also has hyaluronic acid to help plump up the lips, and I really do notice a slightly (really, really slightly) fuller appearance without any stinging. I definitely think I've started a dangerous Guerlain obsession with the Terracotta bronzer from Tuesday's haul and now this.
T-B: Surratt Nu De Soleil, Guerlain Rosy Boop, Buxom Hot Toddy, The Estee Edit Sunday Vibe
I mentioned yesterday that the Glossier Lip Gloss got me back into lip glosses - so much so that I actually bought another one! I had had the Buxom Full-On Lip Cream in Hot Toddy on my wishlist since seeing Faith post about it a while ago. Everyone talks about White Russian so I'm sure I'll get that one soon, but I was really into these warm nude shades this time around. This gives such a beautiful glassy sheen to the lips without being sticky, and it feels super minty and nice on my lips. If every lip gloss formula was this nice, I'd be a regular lip gloss wearer.
The last lipstick I got was a bit of an impulse buy - I saw this photo on The Estee Edit's Instagram and decided all my problems in life would be solved if I just had this lipstick (not really, but I really liked how it looked). I wasn't even sure if the person in the picture was wearing anything on her lips, and frankly, that's what sold me. I picked up the Mattified Lipstick in Sunday Vibe and oh Mylanta is it something special. The formula is lovely, and it reminds me a lot of the Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipsticks - super creamy and comfortable on the lips, but definitely matte. The shade is a gorgeous pinky nude that's just an enhanced version of my lips. I've been patting it into my lips pretty much every day since I got it.
So that's it for my Sephora haul! I'm pretty much drowning in new skincare at the moment so I actually was able to restrain myself on that front. Like I said at the end of Tuesday's post, please please PLEASE leave links to your haul posts/videos below, they're some of my favorites to read/watch!
