​Welcome to the Allure box for August.  I think I missed last month's but I am here to talk about the box for August. So let's jump into it right quick.

​Hey guys. I picked up some items from the Welcome Back sale from Sephora. Which is still going on till the 23rd of August. What I really love about this sale is that it doesn't matter what tier you're on, you're still going to get $15 off $75 and $20 off $100. Usually it does. Also, you can use this multiple times in the store but only once online. I, of course, ordered online.

​Guys...I'm so excited to talk to you about a new product that I've been trying out since the beginning of June, give or take. Before we get started though I have to say a big thanks to Rodan + Fields for sponsoring this post. All thoughts and opinions are my own of course. Let's get into it.

​Hey guys, I wanted to talk about some makeup today. I recently picked up some of the Cover FX monochromatic duos. I bought one blush duo and both bronzer duos. So lets get into it. 

*obviously not sponsored*

​Hi folks. Today I'm going to give you hopefully a short post, as long as I don't get too carried away, about the book "Skin Care A No-Nonsense Guide" from Caroline Hirons.

​Hi everyone. I hope you're well. Let's talk about the latest box from Allure.

​Today's post is going to be a haul from both ULTA and Sephora. They arrived only days apart and I'm actually still waiting on 2 more items from Sephora. I just thought I'd go ahead and do a haul post since it's all new product I've not tried. It's mainly skincare.  Cause I'll be honest, I'm not doing a ton of makeup looks right now since I'm home ya know? There is a sprinkle or two of some non-skincare items though. These orders were from sales that both stores were having at the time.

Hey guys, I'm currently writing you whilst inside a hospital. My husband is having surgery after a freak accident happened. So I'm hanging out, mask on and everything, writing blog posts. I'm being as careful as can be. We have no other choice but to have surgery and just glad we're still in the window to have it. He's never had surgery, unlike me. So that's equally scary. I'm the only one allowed in. Everyone else has to wait in their cars in the parking lot. So it is, what it is. 

​Ok guys, so by the title you will be aware that this is going to be a buying guide for the Sephora Spring Sale event. However, I am HIGHLY aware that right now we're in the middle of a pandemic. I know there are many not working right now and I understand we have more important things to think about besides a sale. I'm doing this because I always do a buying guide, and I very much need a sense of normal right now. I need a distraction. I'm worried and stressed out too, believe me. I currently have ulcers from stress and my own sickness. So I very much need to dive into the beauty world right now and blog so I can maintain some sanity. If you can't shop this sale, that's fine. There will be other sales.  Maybe I will list something you already have and forgot about (kinda like the shop your stash series) and you'll dig it back out or give it a try again. Maybe it will give you some ideas for Mother's Day because you can ship orders or gifts to someone's house while still in quarantine. Maybe it will just remind you there is a sale right now if you need to restock something and right now you can get a discount. At the very least, maybe it will just give you something to read to take your mind off the current situation as well. The sale started for VIB Rouge 20% off on the 17th and goes to May 1st, VIB is 15% and is 21st-29th, and 10% for Insiders 23rd-27th. The code is "SPRINGSAVE" and is an unlimited use. With all that out of the way let's go.

​Greetings all! I thought I would break up the "shopping your stash" posts and bring you this one today about what I've been doing during quarantine. Maybe it will give you some ideas of what you could do, or something you've forgotten about that you used to love.
