I recently took advantage of the Sephora family & friends sale and bought a few things recently. It’s rare to be able to save 20% off at Sephora! I stuck to items I REALLY, REALLY wanted





I got the Multiple stick from NARS in Luxor. It’s new & part of the holiday collection this year. It’s described as a “[a]n iridescent pink to be used on eyes, cheeks, lips and body.” I do own two other Multiple sticks as well and I absolutely love them. I don’t have that much pink in my makeup collection-this is a subtle product that can be used anywhere and that’s what I absolutely love about it. I warn you- start off by using this little by little because it is highly pigment and you most definitely do not want to over do it.


I have to admit that it was the cute packaging that attracted me to Philosophy’s new set, The Winter Escape. I am a sucker for marshmallow & cocoa scented body products and I am mostly let down in the end because the scents are usually artificial & overpowering. This is not the case with these products! Also, you can’t beat the price-$25! I adore the Peppermint Hot Cocoa 3 in 1 shower gel & the Marshmallow lip gloss. This gloss keeps my lips shiny for HOURS! It smells like a warm toasty marshmallow-not too sweet, very subtle. The peppermint hot cocoa smells just as authentic- it smells JUST like my CoffeeMate Peppermint Mocha or an Andes mint. YUM! Yet another way to enjoy hot cocoa & marshmallows sans all the calories!


I bought another tin of the fabulous Smith’s Rosebud Salve. It’s my go to product every winter. It keeps my lips so soft & smooth-you can also use it on scrapes, minor cuts or burns & on dry skin. I’ve been using it for about 5 years now and I really wouldn’t look anywhere else because I’m so satisfied with this product.
