Lovely goodies from Urban Decay!

I've been picking up Urban Decay products for a few months, but haven't had time to haul them before now. Around the beginning of April my area got both an Ulta and a Sephora and I the fact that I no longer have to drive to Chicago to pick up makeup has made things very interesting for me! My poor husband is in hell.

For me it's been a dream! Last Christmas my local Dillard's department store got in a shipment of Too Faced products to sell for the holidays. When I saw them I had an absolute GIRLGASM! Seeing my excitement, several of the cosmetics department associates came over and asked me why I was so excited, had I heard of the brand, and have I used some of the products. How could it be that these professionals had no idea what Too Faced was?! It's not like Dillard's just hires anyone for those positions, they actually hire trained professionals, licensed estheticians and makeup artists! But none of them had ever heard of the brand, and company policy didn't allow them to put out testers as it wasn't a brand they were going to be carrying after the holiday. Flabbergasted, I finally bought a few things and then handed them over so that they could do some swatches and pray at the altar of Too Faced.

Anyhow, my point is that just a few short months ago I was a beauty addict without anyone to share my addiction with. The opening of both Sephora and Ulta has given me an opportunity to join with other like-minded friends who text me if they walk into Ulta and they're handing out free samples (and OMG did they EVER that first month!)or coupons. It's been wonderful!

Which brings me back again to Urban Decay and my collective haul. It all started with the Naked Palette...
