Beauty goodies that arrived today

First, went to ULTA to do some holiday stocking shopping for DD and checked out the MAC items in the TSV - the lipstick is gorgeous and have to agree that it would look good on anyone - its a medium toned rose/brown shade; its got some substance to the color but not bright or dark.  The eyeshadow palettes are small but I'm ok with that.  Just don't expect a large 9 shadow palette but I still think it is worth it.  The shades are definitely neutral shades but pretty and saturated looking, not drab or washed out looking.  The colors for the Spring AD are really nice and I would say muted and soft but not drab just not bright.

 

When I got home in the mail there were 3 packages waiting for me.  Paula's Choice discoloration serum (a replenish so not new to me); Flower Beauty Spice Petal cream lipstick - so pretty!  Heard this was a dupe for Charlotte Tillbury's Pillow Talk - don't know if it is or not but its a soft neutral pink with a touch of brown I think in it.  It looks darker in the tube than how it went on.  A good everyday color.  Also received Tarte Bloom blush.  This is a new blush from Tarte and its a peachy pink but not coral soft blush that looks so pretty on.  I am so happy with this blush.  Good wedding day color.  

 

Happy with everything that came today which is always a good thing!

Sounds like a fun makeup type of day!  Wedding day color?  Are you getting married or just "in general"  Today is my 42nd wedding anniversary.  That's a long time to keep the same thing without upgrading LOLOL!  I thought about that on my wedding day.  But I can honestly say I love him sooooooo much more now than I did on the evening of Nov 16, 1979
