Chicago Haul

Hauls....... oh how I love them. I really enjoy watching and reading about other's haul videos. I am interested to see what sort of products and gimmicks (in my case) people purchase. As stated earlier I am often bamboozled into purchasing an item through any means of sparkly packaging or pretty packaging in general. Because of this I have been disappointed many times, I am not deterred, however.

Recently, I went to Chicago with my mom and sister. I picked up somethings that I have been wanting to try for quite awhile. The first stop I made was to the Yves Saint Laurent counter in Nordstrom's. I have been wanting to try some of their lip products for a very long time but have not been able to get my hands on them; as they are not sold here in good ol' Nebraska.

I only picked up one item. WOW talk about self control. The product of chose was their Rouge Voulpte in #7 or lingerie pink (pictured below). LOVE IT!!!


It is such a nice bright pink. I usually go for more netural pink or nude lips. But have been trying to venture out of my box, in regards to lip products. I really like the texture of this liupstick it is very smooth and I feel pretty mosturizing. I will have to say that its staying power is lacking. But I am willing to overlook it as the color is so nice.

I also ventured to the MAC Pro store and picked up a few things including a few eyeshadow compacts. The only new product that I purchased here was fleshpot lipstick. I love creme d' nude and have been wanting to try its sibling for quite sometime. I am still trying to work with this one to see how it works best. On its own, I find it to be a bit too pale, at least for me. Let me know how you use this lipstick!

Well, that was about all for my makeup haul in Chicago. I did but some other things fashio related so let me know if you would be interested in seeing those.
