REVIEW: Chanel Rouge Allure - 136 Mélodieuse

As mentioned in my recent post, I did a little shopping in Portland.

This was one of the items I brought back with me:

Chanel Rouge Allure 136 Mélodieuse is part of the Notes Des Printemps Spring 2014 Collection.

Portland Beauty Haul (Sephora, Macy's, Nordstrom, Premium Outlets, Target, Walmart)

The boy and I had so much fun (tax-free) shopping in Portland in 2012 (blog post), we decided to go again around the same time in 2013!

December 26-29, 2013, the boy and I went to Portland with our friends.  We stayed at the same place again, The Nines, which I am still recommending.  Club level was definitely sweet.
We caught the Clippers vs. Blazers game on the 26th, and pretty much shopped the rest of the days.

Here's my beauty loot.

M's Favourite Beauty Products of 2013

I really enjoy seeing the all stars line-up of beauty products from others, so I figured I would follow suit from my best of 2012 post and write one up for 2013:

Used Up Beauty Products / Empties #7

My final empties post for 2013!

REVIEW: Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter - 047 Pink Lemonade

I picked up this Revlon Lip Butter in Pink Lemonade from Shoppers Drug Mart in September for $8.99 CAD, after hearing about it from Amarixe.

REVIEW: Caudalie VinoPerfect Radiance Serum Complexion Correcting

I bought this in May, and have been using it on and off over the Summer months.  Over September, October, and November, I've been using this every night after double cleansing.  I figured that now that I've finished the product, I will write a post on my thoughts on this product.

REVIEW: NARS x Guy Bourdin Promiscuous Lip Pencils Coffret (Limited Edition)

I picked up the NARS Guy Bourdin Promiscuous Lip Pencils Coffret during the Sephora VIB sale.

Sephora VIB Sale Haul (NARS, REN, Dior, etc.)

Yes, I did just do a mini Sephora haul just a couple of weeks before the VIB sale... As mentioned in that particular post, I had a 10% discount code and wanted to get the items at some discount before they sold out during the VIB.

I didn't really feel like hustling and bustling with the crowds after work, so I had a game plan to just order online.  Plus, this way I would earn an extra 4% cash back through Ebates!

I have another trip to Portland coming up after Christmas, so I was very selective in the chosen items--US prices and no sales tax -- weeeee!  I bought the items if the discounted price was either equivalent or lower than what I would pay in Portland; otherwise, they will be purchased in Portland ;)
