My deepest apologies for not blogging yesterday, I know you guys cried off all of your mascara because of it. With my reunion this past weekend (which ended up being a true BLAST from the past, thanks to everyone who came and partied!) and with celebrating an amazing Heat win Sunday night at the first Playoff game of the season, Monday’s blog came and went sadly enough. But the show must go on and makeup must be blogged about, so how about a Cosmetic Case of the Tuesdays? Hell, we’re still all counting down until Friday…
So amongst my purchases during Sephora’s Chic Week in which VIB members received 15% off, I splurged on a lipstick. Usually I try to be fairly conservative with my lipstick purchases since I buy so many (cue to my MAC collection), but once I tried on Givenchy’s new Le Rouge lipstick in Fuchsia Irresistible, #205, I knew I had to have it. It is the most gorgeous shade of vibrant fuchsia, one of my favorite colors this season which can totally make an outfit! The lipstick is semi-matte and is encased in genuine leather, ooh la la!
After my lipstick purchase I thought I was content. That is until I made the mistake of browsing on Sephora yet again and realizing that Givenchy makes a matching Fuchsia Irresistible nail polish. While I’m not totally one for being matchy-matchy, this polish is gorgeous in itself and I do think it can look very chic when you have such a gorgeous shade on your lips and your nails, just as long as your ensemble is pretty simple (think black and white). I obviously realized I had to have the polish as well. And for those of you who think it’s just a nail polish and there are a million others out there, I’ll have you know I brought it to the salon for a mani on Friday and I’ve received multiple compliments on the shade since! And yes, this too is topped with a leather-like cap. Double ooh la la!
Check out the goodies and treat yourself as well, you deserve it!
Xo,
Leah
