Estée Lauder Warehouse Sale — Winter 2012

Jack and I went to the Estée Lauder warehouse sale on Friday. I reminded him to not let me buy any make-up because I have bought way too much recently and, let's be honest, I just have too much of it in general. I wasn't really planning on buying anything (I went "just to look"), but I picked up a few things that I thought were worth it.

Origins Gloomaway Grapefruit Body Soufflé, A Perfect World Intensely Hydrating Body Cream, and A Perfect World Highly Hydrating Body Lotion

Like last time, I stocked up on some Origins body moisturizers because I love them but would never buy them at full price. I've never tried the Gloomaway line, but it smells amazing so I picked up the Body Soufflé because it was on sale for $20 from $36. And since they're some of my favourite body products of all time, I re-bought both the A Perfect World Body Lotion (for $18 from $31) and Body Cream (for $20 from $39). I was tempted to buy the Ginger Cloud Smoothing Body Balm as well, but I'm on a budget and thought spending $60 on body moisturizer was more than enough.

MAC Pressed Pigment in Spotlit, Fluidline in Local Wares, Cremesheen Glass in Meteoric, and Lipstick in Shy Girl

Now, what was really worth it was the $5 MAC charity grab bags (all the money goes to MAC AIDS Fund and the Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign). They don't display the contents anymore so each bag is a mystery, but from what I saw, each bag had at least three MAC products from collections that were released quite recently (one of which had a nail polish from the Marilyn Monroe collection!). Mine included a Pressed Pigment in Spotlit from September's Face and Body collection, a Fluidline in Local Wares from August's Styleseeker collection, and a Cremesheen Glass in Meteoric from July's Heavenly Creatures collection. I kind of regret not picking up more of the grab bags, but it's cash-only and I only had $5 on me. I take solace in the fact that I probably already have most of the products contained in the bags. But the free gift this time? Shy Girl lipstick. Totally worth going for that alone, since it's permanent and retails for $18 (and is universally flattering!).
