So today during my break between classes I decided to waste time at the mall. Dangerous territory, let me tell you! I checked out Forever 21's new makeup line, and unfortunately nothing really appealed to me, which is surprising because I love F21. I stopped in a couple more stores and then went to the Body Shop to check out their makeup. They were having two great sales on their skincare lines, Buy 1 Get 1 Free and then another that was 3 items for $20. Unfortunately the line that was having the 3 for $20 sale wasn't for my skin type...so I checked out the other one. The sales associate told me about their Aloe Vera Facial Cleanser for Sensitive Skin. I didn't realize until recently that my skin is sensitive but lately I have noticed that it does get irritated more than it used to and now it gets really red and blotchy. She sold me on this cleanser when she said that it would get rid of the redness. I only had $20 on me so I couldn't get the other two items...oh well she did give me some samples of the rest of the line to try out.
And since I parked in the Macy's parking lot I had to walk through the store to the exit....which is where the cosmetics counters are...which means that I had to stop! Hey, I'm not made of steel people! :P
So what did I get? The infamous Viva Glam Lady Gaga Lipstick! I have been swooning over this after seeing so many swatches on other blogs! And since I had just spent most of my $20 on the facial cleanser, I had to use like $4 in cash and put the rest on my atm...I am so weak :P
I love her signature!
This is like the perfect shade of Barbie Pink...actually not Barbie, more like cotton candy
Here is a comparison swatch next to Rimmel's Lasting Finish Lipstick in #900 Pink Blush (left), they look very similar, but the Gaga one is a bit more lavenderish(?) on my lips
So there was my haulage for the day....it's probably a good thing I didn't have more money :P
I will do an FOTD with the Gaga lipstick so you can see it on my actual lips.
