Retail Therapy...

I am not in good self for the past few days, it's been more than a week actually.  There's been a lot of issues going on so I am not okay.  Those issues that I have, I haven't spoken to anyone not even my bestie and hubs. Only yesterday and today that I had my retail therapy.  Honestly, as of the moment I felt good.  Retail therapy really works for me.  

Yesterday, I bought two items.  First, I went to Dior store and bought a lippy.  I had no plans of buying a new lipstick but when I saw Natalie Portman's new poster for the Rouge Dior Baume, I got so interested in her shade of lipstick.  First I went to Sephora to ask the shade.  The lady said, it's 558 Lili.  Unfortunately, it was out of stock.  So I ended up at Dior store and got lucky, yehey!

The next item is the Benefit Fake up Hydrating Crease-Control Concealer in 02 Medium.  I was hunting for hydrating concealer cos my under eye is a bit on dry side and not much on a dark circle.  I used it today, and I wasn't happy with the result.  It was hydrating but the conceal factor was not there.  In fact my under eye was balmy and even looked sickly, even after the finishing powder.  So I try to use my almost empty Revlon color stay concealer, dab a bit and winner, it was a nice combi :-)  Probably, I will buy a new Revlon color stay and will just use the two together.

By the way, the reason why I really went to Sephora is to check first the Clarisonic items, which I like to have long time ago. What I have by the way is the Olay Regenerist Advanced Cleansing System, it was a sale item.  I wasn't clear yet of the current prices and models available.  Though I read a lot of reviews plus the suggestion of the Sephora consulant, that I buy the Mia 2 instead since I do not have much problem on my face.  Finally, I was able to buy today, however. Yahoo!!  I will try to use this evening...excited!

Lastly, I also bought Laneige Water Bank Eye Gel.  I haven't tried this item yet. I finished Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado and I was really satisfied with the product.  It was really hydrating and when I used concealer it doesn't crease nor shows dryness under my eyes.   I wanted to buy a new one though I wanted to try a new brand.  If ever, after I finished the Laneige, I would definitely go back to Kiehl's.

The important thing, I actually availed my 10% off for the mia 2 and eye gel :-)

So, happy happy :-)
