i'm not good at math.. but i'm good at sales!

I can figure out discounts super fast. Sad. I know.

Anyway, I made a random stop at the mothership, I mean the Rack, on Saturday and as soon as I walked in, I saw a giant table covered in Giorgio Armani and Trish McEvoy makeup!

Most of it was seasonal stuff like bright coral lippies and seafoam green eyeshadows.. But of course I managed to find a couple fun things. I picked up a Giorgio Armani high color cream lipstick in a punchy berry color. I'm more of a neutral lip kinda girl but lately I've been intrigued by the berries so what a great way to try it!

(That photo really isn't true to color. Stupid lighting... It's more purply-fuschia, less orangy-red.)

The funny thing is, no one was even looking on that table until I started rummaging. Then all of a sudden there were five or six other women digging for colors. Good thing I snagged a couple glosses too! Each was under $10.

Done!

Not really. After the makeup frenzy, I looked around the unusually crowded store and noticed signs that said nearly everything was an additional 35% off! (Including the items in my hot little hands!)


So I grabbed this too!

Hope you guys all had a lovely Easter with loads of chocolate bunnies and fake grass and baskets and plastic eggs that I can never open.

confession

I took a mini break yesterday and walked over to Nordstrom. I'd been obsessing about getting a nude colored lipstick and at 3:30 pm, I decided I had to have it right then and there.

I picked up an ArmaniSilk lipstick by Giorgio Armani in #27. It looks darker online than it does in person.



That purchase totally satiated my need to spend money. So much so that even though I spent an hour at Target killing time before dinner, I didn't buy a single item!

*cheers*

Speaking of makeup, Rimmel stuff is on sale at Walgreen's through Saturday.. Buy one, get one free! I love their mascaras. (And no, I didn't buy any!)
