before and after

This was the sad state of my most essential make-up after months of being too poor to replace anything that needed replacing...

But I finally got paid and went directly to Sephora...

My main purchase was new foundation. I went with Bare Minerals because I think it's ok to spend a little more on foundation. I also picked up some Sephora eyeliner (that is actually long enough to grasp between my fingers!) and two Sephora nail polishes because the Sephora brand was buy-one-get-one.

I appreciate that Sephora always has some sort of coupon or deal to trick me into thinking I am saving money when I really just end up spending more, it works every time!
