A bit more from the Sephora spring sale: This was a BOPIS order. My last online order was split into 2 shipments and will probably show up later today.A few notes: SpoilerSEPHORA COLLECTION PRO Blush Brush #99 - bought a second one because I love the one Sephora gifted to me. Never mind what I said in 2024 - THE NO-BUY, LOW-BUY, BUDGET-BUY ACCOUNTABILITY AND SUPPORT THREAD about not buying duplicate brushes this year… that rule starts today! 😅 Besides, my 99 gets used for cream blush more than any other brush I own, so I’m sure this backup brush will also end up in regular rotation. Supergoop! Protec(tint) Daily SPF Tint SPF 50 Sunscreen Skin Tint with Hyaluronic Acid and Ectoin 34C - this was kind of a blind buy, as I wasn’t able to swatch a tester first but did swatch a couple adjacent shades. All I really want the tint to do is mask the zinc oxide in this sunscreen. I’ll find out tomorrow if it does that without tweaking my natural skin tone(s) much. SEPHORA COLLECTION Eye Mask Patches for Dark Circles + De-Puffing Blueberry - decided to see how these blueberry masks measure up to my favorite eye patches (JayJun’s green tea, Good Molecules’s caffeine, and Sephora’s caffeine). Gotta remember to test them this week. - bought a second one because I love the one Sephora gifted to me.

Voluspa direct: Let’s pretend candles do not outnumber diffuser oils in this photo.Now that I have a VOLUSPA Cordless Fragrance Oil Diffuser, I need more diffuser oil that’ll work in it, right? Neither Sephora nor Nordstrom currently carry the scents I wanted, so I had to check Voluspa’s site. Totally not my fault that I wound up there in the first place. And while I was there, I somehow wound up browsing candles even though I do not need more candles. I like how I tried to compensate by buying small and petite jar sizes. 😂 I mean, once those candles are finished, their jars will make beautiful holders for all my Sonia G. Keyaki brushes and other similarly short-handled brushes! See, I’m thinking ahead, not spending needlessly! 🫠 Fragrance notes from Voluspa’s product pages: SpoilerBurning Woods: smokey cedar, burning woods, embers, and Himalayan juniper.Makassar Ebony & Peach: solid black ebony wood, ripe peaches, & apple blossom.Moso Bamboo: moso bamboo, black musk, & Japanese cypress.Saijo Persimmon: persimmon, peach, & jasmine.Temple Moss: cool moss, dewy leaves, river rock, & precious woods. This is the main fragrance I was looking for. Wildflowers (GWP mini tin): native wildflowers, golden poppy, springing herbs, & soft citrus.
