The glossy black bag I left Sephora with is full of expensive face creme; a new tinted chap stick; a sexy new perfume; and a promising high-tech acne treatment. All of these products look so pretty, buried underneath that bright red tissue paper!
Somehow I am able to ignore the price while in the store. After all I saw lots of other girls in line to checkout bought many of the same products I did. It is only when I unwrap the gifts I bought for myself do I once again see the receipt....$200!
Do I need all of these products? No. Do I want all of these products? Yes. In my ongoing quest to find the perfect lotion, the perfect blush and the perfect concealer for my oily combination skin I feel completely justified in spending this amount of money. It is only a couple of weeks later, after I have sprayed, applied and moisturized that I regret my purchases. These products were not made for girls like me.
Does this happen to me regularly..yes. Should I have learned my lesson by now...you would think so. Do I have a beauty product addiction problem...probably. But, do I believe someday I will find the perfect face creme, the perfect eyeshadow and the perfect blush...yes.
I just hope I find them all before I go broke.
