:p Hi Everyone! So, yesterday I went to Sephora only going to buy some skin care products for some hormonal skin issues ( I'm sure many of you ladies could relate). Anyhow I ended up buying:
Clinique Acne Solutions 3 Step Kit
Laura Mercier Oil-Free Foundation
Laura Mercier Secret Concealer
Urban Decay Primer Potion


Gotta say I adore the Laura Mercier skin stuff....It really gives you that "flawless face" that the brand is known for. The Oil-Free Foundations are yellow based and they have a good variety of natural looking shades. I bought the shade called Sunny Beige. I have light olive-toned skin so that yellow base is great for my skin tone and I just have to use the foundation in spots. One thing I don't like is the price....ouch $42!!! But I feel it will last.

The Concealer is great--it's made for the under eye area which I have had a hard time finding---A colotr that fit my tone and really covered those dark circles and this does.

I haven't tried to skincare line from Clinique yet but will tonight...I did try out the UDPP and it is a great base and the price is good....my eye shadow is STILL on and I applied it at 8 am and it's 11:15 pm!!!!!!!!!

Overall I am very happy!

Nice haul!

Hope the Clinique skincare works for you. Acne sucks, and it seems like it's so hard to find a good routine sometimes.

I love UD PP. I just finished my first bottle. I'm using TF Shadow Insurance now to see how they compare, but I still love the PP.

Great purchase! The Sephora near me just started carrying Laura Mercier products too, so now I can play with them more. Enjoy!

I'm glad your acne is cleared up! I just found a cleanser that really helps my skin and it's a great feeling.

I love Laura Mercier's face stuff! I have the TM, Moisturizing Foundation and Silk Creme Foundation. I'm very cool toned so I'm amazed at how well her yellow toned foundations blend into my skin. I really want to get her foundation primer too, I tried a sample of it and Smashbox and Mac's just don't compare!

Great haul:)
