Haul from Stila’s 50-75% Off Warehouse Sale

A long time ago I remember buying that Sephora 10th Anniversary can thingy that contained Stila products that did not match my skin tone (I didn’t know that back then) and I immediately hated it.  I had gotten that Convertible compact (too light), a mascara (just didn’t like) and a lipgloss (hate the brush applicator so I tossed the whole thing).  I never used the compact, but I did use up the mascara.  I still have my kajal pencil in Onyx which I love love love and that was all I loved about the kit.

Since then, I haven’t been interested in Stila at all except for their kajal liners.  I had only bought the kajal pencil in Topaz since then and that’s it.  Sad, right?  Well, I wasn’t feeling Stila like that.  *shrugz*

Stila had come out with that Barbie collection and when I saw that black Barbie with an afro I wanted that kit so bad.  I didn’t want to spend the money on it because I didn’t want the lip glaze or the mascara.  I just wanted the eyeshadows and the blush…with the can of course.  Love the can!

How did I end up with this kit?  Well, Stila had their Warehouse Sale two weeks ago 50-75% off. I took a look at the inventory on their website and saw that this kit was  more than half off so I purchased it right away.  I purchased it along with some other items like the smudge potsboth more than half off.  I got one in Pomegranate and one in  Purple Pumps.   Another thing I really wanted for a long while, but I wasn’t trying to pay full price for since I have a lot of MSFs, was that Illuminating Finishing Powder in Bronze and that was half off so I purchased that too and got more than half off.

Here is the Barbie Loves Stila Foxy Doll set…that came with a Stila can (which I love and it comes with a little doll bio book which is too cute- I have 2 now), a Lash Visor Waterproof Mascara in black (I think – haven’t tried it yet and won’t for a while because I have too many mascaras to try out), a Lip Glaze in Foxy (looks good, nice color and consistency, but I still hate the brush applicator – makes a mess if you’re not careful), and a trio palette with Foxy Barbie Doll on the cover that protects two eyeshadows (one is pearly white shimmery color and the other reminds me of a less shimmery MAC Patena) and a blush that looks like the color of  my Pomegranate smudge pot.  Retail Price: $40.00,  Sale Price: $18.00

A Very Sad, Mini MAC Warm & Cozy Haul

Unfortunately I am very disappointed in the fact that I didn’t want anything more than what I picked up from this collection, Warm & Cozy.  I am devastated that I didn’t want anything from the All Races, Love Lace and Lilyland collections as well.  Eeeeek!

So what this means is that I am not really in a good mood right now.  I had a list of stuff I wanted and I came up with that list from looking at bloggers/youtube guru swatches and reading the descriptions of each product from the MAC website.  I went to my MAC counter and I was only able to purchase two things…YES TWO THINGS…in good faith in the fact that I will use these products for sure.  If I had bought anything else I probably would be trying to make trades or sell by the end of next month from non-use.

OK so this is what I bought and I am very happy with my purchases.  Honestly, I am still thinking about picking up 5N lipstick from All Races and that Raven kohl power pencil from Love Lace.  I may just go back and get those soon.
