Estée Lauder Warehouse Sale (Spring 2011)

I went with Sydney to the Estée Lauder warehouse sale this afternoon. The selection this time around didn't impress me too much; there were a lot of repeat products from the last couple of sales, featuring collections that date back to 2008. I was hoping they'd have some of the stuff from last summer or fall, but no such luck (perhaps during this summer's warehouse sale). I actually ended up getting way more skincare than make-up as well, mostly because I have way too much of it (like, did I really need another pale gold eyeshadow?). So, my final haul included:

MAC Cleanse Off Oil, Fix+ Lavender, and Green Gel Cleanser ($12 each)

MAC Lightful Active Softening Cleanser ($20) and Charged Essence Serum ($25)

MAC Lipstick in Made With Love, Shy Girl, Lavender Whip, and Speak Louder ($10 each)

MAC Charity Grab Bag ($5): Mineralize SPF 15 Foundation Loose in Medium Deep, Cremesheen Glass in Boy Bait, Lipmix in Burgundy, and #41 Lashes (not pictured)

The $5 MAC grab bags usually have four products in each bag, and it's always a hit-or-miss. They only had one variety this time around as well, whereas they usually have two or three different kinds of bag selections. This one ended up being worth it for me for that tube of Cremesheen Glass alone (which retails for $22), but I can't see myself using the other products (the foundation and Lipmix are too dark, and I gave the false lashes to Sydney because I don't wear them). It's a win-win situation either way, though, because the $5 is donated to breast cancer research.
