Above is a sample of what I purchased: a blush, face kit (including 3 face masks, face wash & makeup remover) as well as a hand cream in a small jar shaped like a kitten.

SEPHORA SPRING SOCIAL VIP ROUGE EVENT

  Ok, I’ll admit it, I’m a little obsessed with make-up – hence my VIP Rouge status. Do I regret it? Not even for a second :) This past weekend Sephora was organizing a VIP Rouge event for Spring, offering 15% off on everything in store + a make-up bag full of samples. I took full advantage of this event to stack up on all the make-up I was running out on + try some new products. Here is a little review of the goodies I got!
