Looking Good is the Best Revenge...

Nah not really, I think happiness is...but I thought that was a cute line on the tissue paper I got from my Benefit haul!

a box of goodies in the mail could make any girl happy =)

I ordered from the Benefit website because of the 20% sale they were having and so I got some freebies!

That Gal brightening primer sample (that Iyah loves)

You Rebel tinted moisturizer sample

and a full size Color Plump in Yoo Hoo (haha I keep thinking it says "Yoo Ho")

the gloss in "Curfew" (Sunset Radiant) that Mona recommended as a topper gloss, it's a "buh-buy" product so it only costs $8 instead of the regular $16!

This is what I really had my eye on...CORALista!! I really like Benefit's blushes, very pretty yet natural looking. Try this one at the counter!

Mona and Diana/Mayaari/Right Boobie have been raving that Benefit's Creaseless Cream Shadows/Liners are better than MAC Paint Pots, so I took advantage of the 20% off and got two. They're both shimmery but it's a bit hard to show with my camera.

sippin n dippin (peach parfait) and samba-dy loves me (I love that name!)

with flash

sippin n dippin is a pale, golden "peach parfait" color, it kind of blends in with my skin tone but gives a hint of yellow shimmer (whereas I tried birthday suit at Sephora and it just blended in completely...so aptly named!), and I haven't tried samba-dy loves me yet but it looks like a nice shimmery sand shade. They are definitely creamier than Paint Pots. I hope they'll come out with more color choices (like greens! *ahem*).

You might rememberI got the Boscia Willow Bark Breakout Treatment (there are two sizes, I got the To Go version) not too long ago (about a month ago)...

Here's what Sephora says:

Willow Bark Breakout Treatment To Go

What it is:
A convenient click pen for on-the-go spot treatment.

What it is formulated to do:
Boscia Willow Bark Breakout Treatment To-Go pen contains a gel which helps provide relief from breakouts effectively and safely, even for sensitive skin.

What else you need to know:
This preservative-free, botanically-rich proprietary formula offers a gentle and effective means to ensure your skin stays clear and healthy-looking. Now you can fight surprise blemshes any time, any where, with this convenient mini treatment stick.

I put it to the test this week when a mean ol' pimple waged war on my face...and the breakout treatment totally failed. =( Sure it was gentle, but it didn't actually do anything...I don't think it made a difference (maybe it might have kept the pimple from being super ugly, but it was still ugly). I used it day and night and the pimple still survived for days until finally it was gone, leaving a big scar. I wonder if I should keep the breakout treatment and give it another chance, or exchange it for something else at Sephora (like a good concealer, haha).

Any suggestions for a good spot breakout treatment, spot scar fader (not Ly-Na) or concealer?

P.S. I've been playing Sims 3, will post about that another time!
