Shu Uemura VIP Sale

Another weekend gone, but there is good news on the horizon!  Shu Uemura is having their annual VIP sale.

Fragrance of the Week: Frederic Malle Iris Poudre

I love iris more than Ron Burgundy loves scotch.  The flower, the fragrance, how they will grow even in foggy San Francisco, everything!

In fact I have loved every iris based fragrance I have smelled except for Prada's Infusion d'Iris.  That being said, it is only natural that I would gravitate towards Iris Poudre.

Shu Uemura Lip & Cheek Fun-tasy: Lip and Cheek Tint in Heroine Rose

I got a package from Shu Uemura today....

Shipping was a lot faster than expected, however I do still have another order that they have yet to fill.  I'm also a little sad because the tote that I thought would be given to me was not the one I received.  I mean, I like this tote as well but I thought it would be a white tote with an all over pattern.

Cosmetic: Diorskin Nude Shimmer Instant Illuminating Powder

It finally arrived!  And I couldn't be happier.

I've been contemplating the need for a proper highlighter.  One that doesn't look overly glittery, pink, yellow or bronze.

Confection Blurp: Chocolatier BLUE Chili

So today I spent my day off wandering downtown.  As usual I did some browsing and some shopping and discovered a new favorite chocolate shop on Market St.

Chocolatier BLUE has locations in Berkeley and HOLY CRAP Santana Row!  As well as San Francisco, Omaha, Lincoln NE and Denver.

OCC All Star Mini: A Sephora Exclusive x 4 Set

Sigh the holidays are here.  Where does the time go?

So today I have a little set that was lust at first site for me.  If you like OCC Lip Tars then you're gonna want this set.  But before you rush into it, read the reviews at the Sephora website here and read on about my thoughts of this mini lip tar set.

Shu Uemura and Takashi Murakami Team Up to Make Your Holidays a Little Brighter!

Oh hells!  Well I think I'm in trouble.

So just as the post states, Murakami is doing a collab with Shu Uemura this holiday.  This is to promote his (Murakami's) upcoming artwork "6 Heart Princess".

You can see the collection here.  Also, if you spend $25 and enter in SHUTOTE at checkout you get a free limited edition Takashi Murakami tote bag.  The pictures make the bag seem miniscule compared to the model but I'm hoping that's just bad photoshop.

Dollar Tree Find: NYC Sweet Splash Gloss Stick Plus Giveaway! (over)

Oh Dollar Tree, how do I adore thee!

You really never know what you'll find at Dollar Tree.  This time I have 3 NYC Sweet Splash Gloss Sticks in Pink Spark, Mango Punch and Revived Berry.

Guerlain Crazy Paris Eye Palette in Neon Look

Friday night and listening to Mary J. Blige.

I'm also full of hummus and tacos.....

But enough of me, lets get to the review.

Random Blogging and Giveaway (over)

So we are in the thick of Fall it seems.

The Dior auction has now ended and I am waiting for my highlighter to come.

I spent a good amount of money at the Barney's Love Yourself Event, as always.

The weather is getting colder and I am starting to see dry patches on my face, time to switch to Winter skincare mode.

I also went to the Nordstrom Beauty Trend Show.  Very fun indeed.  Spent a full 8 hours shopping that day.
