It's Beauty Event Time at Nordie's Again!

Nordstrom does this to me all the time. I was visiting today to purchase perfume for a girlfriend who is having a birthday this weekend, and what do I find? Yes, my friends, temptation. With any $100 purchase you can receive a croc embossed train case filled with the following items:

  • Fekkai Glossing™ Shampoo and Cream Packettes (0.3 oz. each)
  • Clarins Extra-Firming Tightening Lift Botanical Serum (0.1 oz.)
  • Lancôme Absolue Ultimate ßx Serum (0.33 oz.)
  • Clinique 7-Day Scrub Cream (0.24 oz.)
  • BVLGARI Jasmin Noir Eau de Parfum Natural Spray (0.05 oz.)
  • Origins Checks and Balances™ Frothy Face Wash (0.24 oz.)
  • Mario Badescu Hyaluronic Eye Cream (0.17 oz.)
  • Kinerase® Clear Skin Regulating Mask (0.24 oz.)
  • Jack Black Industrial Strength Hand Healer (0.5 oz.)
  • Too Faced Lash Injection Extreme Thickening & Lengthening Mascara (0.17 oz.)
  • Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash (1 oz.)
  • MARC JACOBS Daisy Eau de Toilette Spray (0.04 oz.)
  • Bare Escentuals® Paraben-Free Mineral Veil (0.2 oz.)
  • Donna Karan Cashmere Mist 'Cashmere Silk' Packette (0.03 oz.)
  • Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy Eau de Parfum Spray (0.05 oz.)
Good in store and online, while supplies last. Find out more at Nordstrom.com.

Oh, what did I end up getting her? Well, I brought her with me so she could pick out her signature scent. I really thought it would be Tom Ford's White Patchouli (she's kind of a patchouli girl), but she ended up loving (and I did too - I mean LOVE) Bvlgari's Jasmine Noir, which is a sample in the case above! More about that later, though...

Saks Fifth Avenue is Having a Great Beauty Event

It's really too bad that there isn't a Saks anywhere near me, but this is good online too. So I'll be doing some shopping.

Beauty Event at Nordstrom + What I Bought at the MAC Counter

Nordstrom's is having yet another beauty event that forced me into spending over $100 at the MAC counter. Seriously!

With every $100 purchase, you receive the following:

  • Bare Escentuals® bareMinerals® Face Color in Pure Radiance (0.02 oz.)
  • Bvlgari ‘Eau Parfumée au thé blanc’ Oshibori Refreshing Towel
  • Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch (0.13 oz.)
  • Donna Karan Cashmere Mist Body Lotion (0.2 oz.)
  • Ed Hardy by Christian Audigier Eau de Parfum Spray (0.05 oz.)
  • GoSmile Advanced Formula B1 Tooth Whitening Ampoule
  • Kinerase® Intensive Eye Cream (0.1 oz.)
  • NARS Potent EFA Cream (0.24 oz.)
  • Pangea Organics Facial Cleanser—Egyptian Calendula & Blood Orange (0.1 oz.)
  • St. John Signature Eau de Parfum Spray (0.05 oz.)
  • Shiseido ‘The Makeup’ Pre-Makeup Cream SPF 15 (0.21 oz.)
I don't see any sort of ending date on this event, just a note about how it's available "while supplies last." If you are visiting the Norfolk Nordstrom, you best move yourself on in there, because people were snapping these things up.

What did I spend $100 on? All MAC, of course. Every single liner in the Starflash collection, Orpheus, Raven, Feline, and Mystery. LustreTwin in Red Flame/Orange Flicker (which is so beautiful I can barely bring myself to wear it), Mineralize Eyeshadow in Odd Couple from Electro Flash, and Mineralize blush in Gleeful from the Sonic Chic collection.
