Mini Sephora and Forever 21 Haul

I know what you’re thinking, you already did a haul last week. Well I was at the mall and there was Sephora just calling me. So I gave in and bought a couple of things. Then I went to Forever 21 and decided to see if any of their cosmetics were worth the buy, so we’ll see.

First I bought some headbands from Forever 21. It was Buy One, Get One Free, so I thought I’d buy them.

Then I saw this cute eyelash curler, I just had to.

Then I bought some lip crayons in the shades, Nude, Lavender, and Rust. I have some swatches below in that order from top to bottom.

Then I got a brush holder. I’ve seen makeup artists use this, so I thought I would give it a try.

Then I got some makeup sponges. I’ve never tried the actual Beauty Blender but I have tried them from Real Techniques, and I just wanted to see if they could compare.

I bought a new hair brush and some bobby pins. Just the basics.

I’ve seen this at Ulta and I thought about getting it but I didn’t want to spend too much money on it, so I thought I’d try it for $5. I hope this heated eyelash curler works and helps keep my lashes curled.

Now from Sephora I got a few things, not doing much damage to my wallet. First thing I got was the Benefit Hervana Blush. I’ve heard good things about it so I wanted to try it myself.

Then I stocked myself up on some primer with the Urban Decay Primer Potion in the Anti-Aging formula. Never tried that before, hopefully it’ll make me look younger than 20, just kidding.

Last thing I picked up was a lip liner from Sephora. It’s in the shade, 16, Nude Beige, and there is a swatch below.

Thanks for reading! Sorry I haven’t posted this weekend. I have had some crazy hours at work, making it hard to post. But fear not, I’ll be back tomorrow with  some new things coming up on Beauty Amateur Hour. Stay tuned.
