About the Brand: Vera Wang
"In 2000, Vera Wang's enthusiasm for couture fashion resulted in the launch of her highly acclaimed ready-to-wear collection. The Council of Fashion Designers of America honored Vera Wang by naming her "Womenswear Designer of the Year" in 2005. Known for her nonchalant approach to style and luxury, Vera Wang's ready-to-wear collections resonate with her signature layering, intricate draping and exquisite attention to detail."

About the Brand: Kevyn Aucoin
"Kevyn Aucoin is celebrated as perhaps the most influential makeup artist of our time. There's no doubt Kevyn's technical abilities were unparalleled. But his philosophy and fondness for celebrating individuality are what set him and his artistry apart in an industry so prone to norms and traditions. At a time when the world of makeup artistry was impersonal, distant and out of reach, Kevyn was the first to welcome beauty enthusiasts backstage. Kevyn Aucoin made it his mission to share his techniques with anyone willing to learn them; he made his methods accessible to millions in his bestselling books – The Art of Makeup, Making Faces and Face Forward. In them, he divulged the secrets of his art, teaching makeup application step-by-step in his own words. These makeup 'bibles' are timeless must-haves for artists and beauty consumers today."

Kevyn Aucoin + La Perla Sample Sale | 12/5 - 12/10/17



Kevyn Aucoin + La Perla Sample Sale
Shop both lingerie and cosmetics!

This sale was even better than I thought it would be! I didn't get to shop the La Perla sale but I got a ton of Kevyn Aucoin makeup! The prices are phenomenal! Everything is under $20! Check out the price list below, as prices are specific to each product. There are about a dozen different makeup brushes, and plenty of face makeup shades. 

I do have a tip that I'm going to remember to follow next time: for the next beauty sample sale, I'm going to try and make it to a tester station or get shade matched on everything in advance. That way once you get to the sale you're familiar with all the products and have a list of all the shades you need. I had less than a half hour at the sale, and I spent quite a deal of time swatching lipsticks, glosses, eyebrow pencils and face makeup. Stay tuned for a follow-up post of my Kevyn Aucoin shopping haul! Sale details are below and happy shopping!

About the Brand: La Perla
"La Perla was started by Ada Masotti. Creating an atelier of corsetry in the name of the best italian tradition. Presenting her creations in boxes lined with velvet as if they were precious jewels, led to the name La Perla - representing the most feminine and harmonious gem."

About the Brand: Kevyn Aucoin
