As I mentioned in my
BestDrugstore Beauty Buys last week, the famous Priceline
40% off sale was on and I went along with my Mum and sister after a
nice lunch at Groove Train to see what goodies I could find. I had a few
things in mind to pick up, but I was so overwhelmed in there that I didn’t end
up buying a single thing! I’d wanted to pick up some more back-ups of my essence
Long-Lasting Liner ‘Hot Chocolate’ but they had sold out, and it was so
busy in store that I couldn’t decide on which shade of the new Max
Factor Crème Puff Blushes to buy, so decided to wait until they are
next on sale. I also contemplated the Models Prefer Soft Touch Powder (Hourglass
dupe I heard?) and the new Revlon HD lipsticks, but they have
so many colours to choose from and I had no idea which one I wanted! I think
I’ve definitely changed my shopping style in the last year or so, I don’t want
to clog up my makeup storage with mediocre products so I put a lot more thought
into things I buy now – I kind of regret not grabbing anything from this sale,
though!
Mumma Bovary and my
sister aren’t really into makeup but I herded them through the throngs of
people to the essence stand for a cheap thrill. They each bought a bottle of essence
‘Kiss Me Freddy’ and the essence eyeliner ‘Hot Scorch’ (recommended by moi!)
Then Mumma Bovary popped a few more eyeliners into her basket (‘I
Have a Green’ which is my fave green liner, and ‘Berry Merry’) along with
a second polish in the dark ‘Headphones On’ shade. I love how
affordable essence products are for such high quality – a risk free cheap
thrill for sure!
What did you haul in
this Priceline sale? If you didn’t indulge, what is the last drugstore product
you bought for yourself? Is it a bit sad that my family bought from the sale
and I didn’t?
