Beauty Notes: Ladies, I present you with a dilemma...
Posted by Dain, Thursday, August 18, 2005 12:03 AM (Eastern)
(And apologies to all non-ladies in the audience.)
Actually, this is a poor dilemma to lay before your feet. I have a $85 gift card to Sephora, and it beats me, whatever am I going to buy? I can't think of anything that I really, really want, except to repurchase NARS Key Largo, and maybe a couple of Dior lipglosses. But this is a vague desire, given that I don't wear brown eyeshadow too often, and lipcolors aren't a major issue for me the way everything else seems to be. If only Sephora sold Stephane Marais, I'd buy Perfect Concealers unto posterity. I'm torn, should I buy what I've always wanted but never got around to buying? Should I make sensible, useful purchases (like brushes)? Or should I buy something frivolous and fabulous that I'd never be able to justify elsewise?
Any and all suggestions are welcome!
P.S. I am leaning towards the frivolous and fabulous. (D.C.)
P.P.S. Such prodigious luck! And now, $50 for Saks Fifth Avenue. I think maybe one of those LE palettes from Clé de Peau, otherwise horrendously priced at $95, but very reasonable at $45. So gorgeous, I wish I could have all of them.

Well, you already know what I'm going to say. :)
As long as there's no expiration date on the card, keep it--until it becomes obvious what you should spend it on.
