Teeny Tiny Haul~February/March 2013

I have a teeny tiny haul to share with you.  I have been trying to shop my current stash and go on any beauty shopping sprees which has been extremely difficult.  There are always new products being released and I want to try everything but I am saving for a trip at the end of the month and for IMATS in April (woohoo!).  I have a few products that I did pick up over the past few weeks.  Keep in mind that I am on a "low buy" not a "no buy" and that these purchases were made over a span of a few weeks.  

First, I picked up the new limited edition Wet n Wild eight pan eyeshadow palettes in Going in the Wild and Nude Awakening.  They were around $4 at my local Face Values store.  I was thrilled to actually find these because Wet n Wild's limited edition products are almost impossible to find.  The quality of their eyeshadows are amazing for the price and I cannot wait to try these out!  Plus the LE packaging is so pretty!

Mini Review: Lorac Natural Performance Foundation

I am addicted to foundations.  I am on a quest to find the perfect formula for oily skin that leaves a lasting satin to matte finish.  I purchase more foundation than I will be able to use in a lifetime and it has gotten to the point where my husband told me I cannot buy another one until I have used what I already have.  That's when I knew I should really shop my stash.

I purchased the Lorac Natural Performance Foundation about six months ago during a 20% off everything promotion at Ulta.  It retails for $36 for 1.0 fluid ounce and comes in ten shades.  I have NP5 which is a pretty good match.  (It is difficult to find a perfect match in foundation because I have yellow undertones.)
