Bergdorf Goodman Samples

Yesterday, I went to NYC in an effort to escape the 30 inches of snow in Ct. As of yesterday the state was still half shut down due to the slow process of getting rid of the snow. It's supposed to snow again on Saturday, pray for us. haha I went to Barney's to select items for the Bag Event and to see if I could gather any more intel on the Bag event and after wandered into Bergdorf Goodman to play with Le Metier de Beaute's new spring lip glosses (I meant to take pictures for you all, but totally forgot - I apologize and I will see if the sa will send me some). I didn't really get anything, but I walked out with quite a few samples. The most generous was by far the AmorePacific counter. Those lovely ladies gave me 4 deluxe sized samples and quite a few foil packets.

Not only are these very generous samples, but look how cute the little container is! I also got some Revive, Le Metier de Beaute, and Tom Ford. I also played with some Chanel eyeshadows and the sa gave me her card with the information on it (thats the random card in the center). I'm going to have fun playing with my new toys and I'll let you know my thoughts in the coming weeks. 

Barney's/Saks Haul and Nastassja Skincare line

Rachel was a bad girl yesterday...=(

I think I might have lost my head a bit. There is the new limited edition Chanel Illuminating Powder (Poudre Signee De Chanel), 2 Burberry Eyeshadows, a Burberry Lipstick, 2 Lush eyeliners (which will be reviewed in my next Lush update), Koh Gen Do foundation, Armani Eyes to Kill, Sponge Krema Triantfillo (finally!!!), and a sample of something I'm not really sure of (it was kind of thrown at me). Soooo...I had a bit of fun? I think I might have a problem. My name is Rachel and I am a beauty shopaholic.

I got home from this haul and found my glossybox prize on my doorstep. I won the Nastassja Skincare line and was surprised when I opened the box and found the entire line, I thought I would get some products and mostly samples.

It also came with a 50% off my next purchase coupon. I really don't know anything about this line, so I'm going to do a little research and try these out and review them soon!

Barney's "Haul"

I put haul in quotations because I'm not really sure I want to call this a haul, but wasn't exactly sure what else to call it. The past month I made a list of everything I either wanted to get samples of or buy the next time I made my way to a Barney's. Well, yesterday I finally got my chance.

I sampled Tatcha Rice Enzyme Scrub so that I could compare it to my AmorePacific Enzyme Peel. I got samples of some more of the Sunday Riley line including Good Genes, which I have been really wanting to sample. I also got a sample of Rodin Olio Lusso as I have heard some wonderful things about it and I wanted to compare it to Sunday Riley's Juno oil. Last of the samples was from Malin and Geotz. I really wanted to sample their intensive hair mask and they also threw in a sample of shampoo (the rep told me that I could't get the full experience of the mask without it) and their detox face mask.

I had only planned on getting samples of some of the Sponge lotions, and somehow I was talked into purchasing. The rep told me that since I was young the only lotion she would recommend to me was Krema Imeras (day cream) and that it would be sufficient for my dry skin for both day and night. I am a little skeptical, but she seemed so earnest that I felt the need to believe her. We shall see.

The two other full sized products I bought were from Sunday Riley's makeup line. I bought her lipstick in Orchid and lipgloss in blackberry crush. I had been coveting this color online for a month and was dying to purchase it, but refused to do so until I had tried it. It is the perfect vampy purple! I will have to  swatch it for you at some point!

Do you guy's think I made some good selections? Tell me what you think!
