Sephora Dubai Haul
I honestly had thought that I would not shop for cosmetics at all when I went to Dubai. Though the call of Sephora was strong I didn't plan on setting foot in there coz I knew I would end up buying things :P But like all inevitable things it had to happen for one reason or the other...and I went in...and I was pulled under... :D Rather I went there twice, once in the Mall of Emirates outlet and then at the Dubai Mall one. The latter was a tad bigger than the former but I passed by all the US brands and headed straight for the Sephora in-house ones coz I really wanted to see what they had...Right now I'm kicking myself for forgetting to check out the Sephora favorite kits :( But anyhoo let's take a quick look at what I got...
Ok I will start with a slightly sour note :( It is so not fair that Sephora India opened a 2nd store in Delhi itself and did not branch out to another city instead...I mean really not even in Mumbai?!? What are the chances of us Kolkata girls seeing any action then? In the year 2500?!? Boo!!! Ok I had to get that rant off my chest :P As you may know I picked up a couple of pieces from Sephora Singapore. I really wanted to get some of their newly launched nail paints but that particular store was not carrying any and I was really not keen on picking anything from their makeup range simply coz I had a lot of stuff in my basket already from the other brands. They had this huge kiosk filled with different types of mask sheets and this was one of my choices. So let's take a quick look to see how it performed.
I so so so wanted to step foot into a Sephora! Even more so an international one! Just the thought of the amazing brands I could get my hands on there left me in a tizzy and for someone who has been sighing over some of the new launches and not been able to get her hands on coveted items the mere thought that I would finally get to experience Sephora left a twinkle in my eye and a spring in my step. The whole trip to Singapore was one major whirlwind from start to finish as it was a very last minute thing and we had very few days to prepare for it as well in the city itself.
Nail stamping has been my must-accomplish-no-matter-how-much-I-suck task. Seeing so many people create such beautiful designs with something seemingly so simple was always quite fascinating. Thinking that it was child's play I got myself a Konad kit last year sometime. Very merrily I set out with the bits and pieces which in this case were the stamper, the image plate, the scraper and the paints included in the kit, and tried my hand at "stamping". But whats this? I managed to get part of the image on the stamper but somehow completely failed to transfer it on the nail?!?
