Sparkled Beauty

The weekend has come and gone. I for once was not sucked in much with Good Friday sales. Shocking, isn't it? I only have a small haul for you for my regular stores, was tempting 2 online orders but I got into a "mommy tantrum" mode last night and didn't bother.

I headed to 2 locations of The Body Shop after work on Friday but all their Joy bags were sold out. Lucky for those of you who got a chance to grab a bag or two, I heard it was full of googies.

I did make my La Senza purchase for a trio of nail polish: Very Versailles, Hollywood Strip and Fuji Fantasy. Don't you love the names?

I grabbed Fuji Fantasy because it's a seasonal shade. Very Versailles is a pretty magenta creme, and Hollywood Strip has a pretty subtle magenta sheen which I hope shows up on the nails. We'll see if it does.

La Senza also came out with the roller tubes, some with sweet scents, some with their traditional fragrance scents. I only liked one scent among them (Coconut), so I passed.

As you probably know, Shoppers has the surprise gift card promo in the weekend. I was so sure I wouldn't need enough stuff to make it to $75, but... lol you know what happened right? :)

This is what I originally came in for: the L'Oreal Infallible Stars collection display. I spotted it a few days back but didn't like the CAD14.49 price tag on it. I was so excited seeing the weekend promo of 40% off L'Oreal, so I made sure I came back for it.

The display was still untouched when I got there, all 6 shades, and the liners. With the sale, the glosses came out a bit over CAD8 each. A steal eh? On the very left is Beyonce's Red, the most exciting shade among them. I grabbed one after taking this pic.

One of the reasons I love my Shoppers location: the clearance table :) They put cleared out stuff on a table, not at the end cap near the cosmetic section. A lot easier to tempt you, I'd say, lol.

I found these last weekend:
- CoverFX Redness kit CAD29.99 (reg. CAD45). It was still on regular CoverFX shelf but the sale sign caught my eyes. Can't say no to CoverFX.
- Smashbox O-Glow CAD10 (reg. CAD34)
- Quo Sahara shadows in Jewel of the Nile and Desert Mirage, 75% off, reg. CAD15 each.
- L'Oreal Infallible in Beyonce's Red - This was in the display above, I just threw it in the pic.

And there was more :) A few Gosh items were cleared out as well.
- Eyeshadow quartet in Vanity Pastels, reg CAD20. This will come in handy in the spring when pastel trend returns.
- Body Shimmer in Cinderella, reg. CAD20. I know I don't need it but the puff was so cute and fluffy, and I was sold on the name too
- Effect Powder in Doll and Lime, reg. CAD14 each. I have a bad habit of collecting these whenever I found them at clearance. They are eye candy to me :)

I heard sales are even crazier for Cyber Monday in the States. What are you planning to get today? Or what did you get in the weekend? I'd love to hear.
