So excited! Today I got my HauteLook Lip Beauty Bag. It’s been a while since I got a bag from them I was wondering if they were going to offer them anymore. I should have skipped but the bag itself is super cute.

PRICE: $24 + $5.95/shipping & taxes.

Mirenesse ~ Glossy Kiss Shade 2 (Flirty Kiss) ($26.55) & Mirenesse ~ Lip Bomb #2 (Siren Red) ($35.10): Mirenesse has their own sub (VIP Club). They have pricey, yet high quality fabulous cosmetics.  Either one of these items alone is more than the cost of the bag!  I love the lip bomb (have several shades now.)

Allegro Lip Gloss Case

Laura Geller Italian Marble Lipstick (Sugared Maple) ($18) This is the entire reason I got this bag. It is so gorgeous! I’ve never wanted a lipstick this bad. LOL

LORAC ~ Lip Lustre Gloss (Ruby) ($15): This color is gorgeous! I’ve also come to love LORAC thanks to other subs.  Their coverage is great, it’s not sticky and it lasts a long time.  Just a great gloss!

Swoon Lip Gloss Reusable Wand ($15)  SERIOUSLY? Why didn’t someone think of this sooner? Or at least share with me!  You can use it with any gloss to get every last bit out.  FYI: You have to be gentle with this because it is easily breakable, so keep that in mind.

Lord & Berry ~ Shining Lipstick Crayon (Scarlett) ($16): This color is seriously CRAYON red!  YIKES! Not for me. Lord & Berry is a great brand though.

NYX ~ Lip Liner (Fruit Punch) ($4.50)

Crown Brush Lip Liner Brush ($1.94)

La Fresh ~ Lip/Eye Makeup Remover Packet ($0.75) I love La Fresh products! So convenient!

So… The value of this bag is roughly $140. I paid $24 w00t woot!

I highly recommend joining HauteLook. It’s free, they have awesome sales and amazing beauty bags!

I paid for this bag myself, and all opinions are 100% mine. ~D

WHEW! btw, I love this one much more! 🙂
