It's the Most Wonderful Time of The Year....

We hope each of you had a beautiful.flawless.holiday and got everything you wanted - whether it be lazy days lounging in your fave robe and/or pj's, to taking the hordes *we mean mall* by storm, to cashing in on some of those unbelievable deals!

As we have mentioned several times before, retail seasonal changes are the best times to update your beauty arsenal and find great cosmetic deals. If you are anything like us, you can NEVER have too many cosmetic bags and travel cases. The following great bags/sets + unbelievable post-holiday prices = absolute "MUST HAVES".

Clinique's Lash Impact Gift Set is a true "gem"! As if the cute purple cosmetic bag is not reason enough to buy it, the 4 travel sized mascaras will have you "SOLD"! Each of the mascaras will solve just about any lash dilemma: The "High Impact" Mascara volumizes and lengthens; "High Impact Curling" Mascara coaxes lashes to their most upturned look; "Lash Power" Mascara vows to keep lashes looking their best for 24 hours; while "High Definition" Lashes delivers extreme length and definition.

What is better than one gift? Two gifts in one! That is what you get when you purchase Lorac's Double Booked Full Face Collection.
