I have a kick off meeting tomorrow for work and went to CVS today to pick up some travel things since I'll be staying over night in a hotel (that's 10 minutes from my house) and I don't want to deprive my boyfriend of shampoo and conditioner while I'm gone. I of course had to go look at some makeup while I was there and picked up a few things.
The first thing I got was the
Vichy Dermablend Corrective Foundation in the color Opal (15). I've heard a lot of great things about this foundation and I used to use the Dermablend Cover Creme a few years back. They are very different products but you get essentially the same results. I'll be using this as more of a concealer than a foundation because of the coverage it offers.
I also picked up a
Milani HD Concealer in the lightest shade. It is one of those click pen concealers like the YSL Touche Eclat. I plan to use this under my eyes to camouflage my dark circles.
Last thing in the cosmetics department is also from Milani. It is the
Milani Liquif'eye eyeliner in black. It's really creamy so you can blend it out but once it sets, its staying there. I swatched this on my hand and it literally was like using a liquid eye liner. After about a minute I tried to rub it off and was unsuccessful. It is a very pigmented inky black.
I ran out of my Macadamia Natural Oil Deep Repair Masque today and I didn't have time to go to Ulta to pick up some more. While looking for a travel shampoo and conditioner today I stumbled across something that I've wanted for a while but could never find it in any of the stores near me. It is the
Pantene Pro-V Restore Beautiful Lengths Replenishing Mask. I've been trying to grow my hair out for about 2 years now and while it's getting pretty long (almost to my elbows) it's starting to look damaged. I don't think this will take the place of the Macadamia Oil Masque but I'm hoping it'll be a nice stand in conditioner until I can pick up some more.
Well that was my little haul. Not a lot of stuff purchased today but I'm pretty excited to try out something new. Let me know if you've ever used any of these products. I'd love to hear what someone else might think about them. I'll leave you with a cute picture of Bailey.

Would love to hear your thoughts on the Pantene and the Milani concealer. Love the Milani liquif'eye, one of the best eyeliners I've ever used :)
