The Lipstick League – Week of 11.17.14
Question of the Week: Do your beauty spending habits change during the holidays? Do you tend to purchase more (or less) beauty-related items for yourself at this time of year?
EauMG’s Answer: I wish I could say that my spending habits change at all during the holidays. They don’t. We don’t do the presents thing in my family so I don’t really change my habits. This sounds terrible, but if anything, I guess I spend slightly more on beauty. Why? They offer so many great holiday gift sets this time of year and plus there’s all those holiday sales. I can’t resist those.

There’s so many neat gift boxes and collections this time of year! So I do spend more money on myself that I should be saving to spend on others. My boyfriend let me buy him a fragrance as a present so that’s killing two birds with one stone! 🙂
It’s impossible to resist! So many great limited edition/value sets.
Oh, cool! Do you know what you’re going to get him?
Van Cleef & Arpel’s “Tsar” which he used to wear apparently, and a few little Al Rehab 3ml oils to try, they’re so cheap that it won’t matter if he ends up not liking them.
I love Tsar.
I really need to try the Al Rehab oils. At that price, there is no reason to NOT try them!
