My Solo Trip to Sephora Today

Yes, you read that right. I did venture out solo to Sephora today to attend "1 Day Flash Sale by Benefit" in conjunction with They're Real Push-up Liner launch. I am never usually bothered by these events but the possibility of getting Benefit eye hamper worth MYR900.00 (for the first 3 Sephora White Card members to purchase) proved to be way too strong for me to resist.

Let me start by saying, little tyke was waking up nearly every couple of hours last night so I didn't have the best sleep. And while I was getting ready to leave, I discovered I have a diaper (unused!) in my handbag...don't ask why it's not in the diaper bag because I have no idea how it get into my bag in the first place. Few hiccups in the morning and I was running late. I finally arrived at Sephora at 9.35am and I saw....

Let me tell ya, gurrrllll...these women ain't messing around when it comes to getting freebies! One even took off her shoes so she can run like the wind. I was feeling a little disheartened and I told Kevin that I wasn't sure if I should be bothered with waiting, maybe I should come another day. Kevin told me to stay just to watch the mayhem that was coming and boy, was I glad that I stayed.

As soon as the door started rolling up, these sistas broke out some moves ala Tough Mudder! And damn, they can run! Then the shoving and pushing started at the cashier...while I silently stood in a corner taking a video. I must admit that the whole situation was amusing to me and I had a good chuckle out of it.

I got myself They're Real Push-up Liner and ever famous Tarte Lights, Camera Lashes mascara! I have been wanting to try this mascara since last year but I didn't want to spend so much money only to be severely disappointed again (I'm looking at you Benefit They're Real mascara!) so when I saw it was available in travel size, I just had to get it!

Gentlemen Only by Givenchy is my Father's Day gift to Kevin. He has been looking for a new cologne and this one smells brilliant! It is light, crisp and refreshing with enough muskiness to it. Not overpowering and just perfect.

And these are the free gifts that I received from buying Benefit Push-up liner! It ain't an eye hamper worth MYR900.00 but hey, I am pleased with it. I am always out hunting for a great deal and this, is a great deal to me!

Maybe I should change my blog name to "The Beauty Bargain Huntress"? Hmm....
