Moving day is finally here! As I mentioned before, the boyfriend and I are moving states, AGAIN. As a result I will be without internet for a while :( So I leave you now with some Sephora goodies!
I decided it was about time to make a little dent in my Sephora Wish List =) Not to mention I have been out of my HG cuticle cream for quite a while now, so it was needed!

Illamasqua Powder Blusher in Nymph |
Illamasqua Powder Blusher in Nymph... Bubble gum pink! This is like a more pigmented MAC Well Dressed, which is one of my favorite blushers. Not quite as cool toned though. I love this blush and know it will be one of my most used from now on! =) I swatched it below next to my other pink Illamasqua blusher, Chased.

Make Up For Ever Diamond Powder in Smoky 15 |
Make Up For Ever Diamond Powder in Smoky 15... Taupe gray shimmer. Let me start by saying this is NOT what I was expecting. First let's just look at the
color. It is bronze with some blue/green specks in it. When I first opened this I thought they had given me the wrong thing! Second, the
texture is very gritty and it isn't at all a powder. More just small pieces of glitter. I was expecting the glitter to be much more finely milled, because of the "powder" in the name!
I'm rather disappointed. I didn't know what I was getting myself into! haha

Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Poke... Bright violet purple/ shimmer finish. This is a new color, and looks so pretty! You can't tell much in the picture but it shimmers a silver shade. I have yet to try this one out, but I can't wait!
(check out my other favorite Illamasqua polish here!)
Sephora by OPI Top Coat in Spark-tacular!... I have been lusting over a Deborah Lippmann polish in, Birthday Cake...? Not sure on the name, but this polish reminded me of it. At half the price I snatched it right up!

Dior Creme Apricot Fortifying Cream for Nails |
Dior Creme Apricot Fortifying Cream for Nails... This is my HG (holy grail!) multipurpose nail cream. I put this on my cuticles before I go to bed to get rid of the dry skin around my nails! You only need a very little amount. I also use it at night on my lips because it is SO hydrating. I can still feel it on my lips when I wake up in the morning! I really am just obsessed with this product. It's a bit pricey at $23.50 for 0.35 oz, but it lasts forever so I think it's worth it =)
I also purchased the
Boscia Pore Purifying Black Strips for the boyfriend. I hear they work best after you take a shower and your pores are open. So the next time I get a chance to corner him in the bathroom after a shower, he's trying them out. Whether he like it or not! haha =)
So, have you tried any of these products??
