I
used the exact same beauty products all throughout High School and College: any foundation, concealer, bronzer, blush and mascara brands you
could buy at any drugstore (I still wear by Cover Girl Lash Blast Volume
mascara… I swear by it!). One day I looked at my makeup drawer and realized
there were dozens of products in there that I didn’t use. Tons of foundations,
bronzers, under eye makeup, complexion evening powder, you name it. There were
countless products that I bought but then never used. Either the color wasn’t
right, it looking to caked on, it didn’t cover enough, etc etc. Nothing was
right and nothing worked for my skin.
Enter
Sephora (which FINALLY opened a store in Grand
Rapids Chicago
Since
Sephora has finally graced it’s presence in my life, I have slowly started to incorporate nicer brands into my makeup mix and now have completely (almost) transformed
my routine into Sephora only products. Sometimes I wish this wasn’t the case
(it’s costly), but once you’re used to one product that is more designer level
quality, it’s hard not to slowly invest in others. While chatting about my
makeup woes over coffee with a co-worker, she suggested a couple of brands to
check out. Off to Sephora I went, where they let you test out all products
before purchasing, and fell in love on site. To ensure I wasn’t making the
decision to quickly I spoke with one of the consultants, tried on some other
brands, and ended up landing on a different one that worked better with my skin
type.
The
rest is history…
