BITE. Iluminous Creme Lipstick for VIB Rouge . . $1K. That is the ridiculous amount you need to spend at Sephora to be a VIB Rouge. Shame on me and the reason why I am doing this blog. No $$ on beauty products for one year. . . Sooo...the Thank You gift two years ago for being a VIB Rouge was this Bite lipstick. I've had it for 2 YEARS, never used it until the other day. Little did I know this was a matte lipstick and I. Am. Obsessed. 2 year old matte lipstick and IT IS NOT DRY. Must have more preservatives than a McDonalds Chicken Nugget. I love both so...winning! . . #vibrouge #sephora #bite #bitebeauty #livingonsamplesforayear #livingonsamples #preservativesbedamned #makeup #mattelipstick #mattelip #whatonethousanddollarsgetyou #youwinsephora #wellplayed

ESTEE LAUDER. Advanced Night Repair. Sample size. . . The size of this sample is phenomenal as well as the product. Whenever Grandma gets her Youth Dew, I get her GWP and there is always a sample of this, which lasts me about 2 months. Great serum if you want to step it up a notch. I noticed quick results and my skin looked great while using it. . . Thanks Grandma. . . . #todayssample #livingonsamplesforayear #livingonsamples #gwp #esteelauder #advancednightrepair #greatskin #skin #skinblogger #beauty #beautyblogger #cheapthrills #findyouselfagrandma

MACADAMIA - FLAWLESS CLEANSING CONDITIONER . Ummm...no . . Cleansing shampoos are not for me. Yes, they are gentle, but in a "I might as well just have run water through my hair" kind of way. As a person who grew up in the inferno that is the Caribbean, anything less that industrial strength car detergent mixed with Clorox will not make my hair feel clean. This was a full size product that came in an Allure box. Only lasted about 3 weeks but could be due to never feeling clean when "washing". . . #livingonsamples #samples #nospending #macadamia #cleansingconditioner #beautyblog #beautyblogger #haircare #hairproducts

CHANEL - SUBLIMAGE L'ESSENCE . Oh La La! HOLY GRAIL of serums . . You see immediate results and it smells expensive. Which makes sense, because this serum is $425. 😳I got deluxe samples in Paris and I only use it when I do facials. I cannot see how I can afford buying this in the future. But oh how I love it. Merci, Chanel! Sample will last 2 weeks used day/night . . #chanel #holygrail #nospending #samples #skincare #beautyblog #beautyblogger #livingonsamples #nospending #savemoney
