Sephora FF2010 Wishlist

It's around the time beauty insiders receive notices on the Friends and Family event at Sephora. I have not received anything yet am counting the days (ahh...slightly sad).
I am pretty prepared for this year's ordeal as I already have my list set (somewhat, keeps on changing a bit every other day).

Here's what I have (for now).

1. Coco Mademoiselle Eau De Parfum
    This is my scent. I've tried samples and I never get sick of this. Plus I am a large fan of Kiera Knightley so props to Chanel on their spokeperson choice. I have fallen for the marketing. The cherry on the top.

2. T3 Straightener
    I have been waiting for a straightener as it seems a more economical option as opposed to getting a straight perm. Plus I could use it to curl my hair. The debate between T3 and GHD is on going. I choose this because they seem similar, depending on hair type, and this is more economical. Maybe GHD after I receive my 'real' paycheck.

3. Boscia Luminizing  Black Mask
    Sort of an addiction to masks and the reviews for these have been great. The first time I went to get this at Sephora, they had been sold out. Hopefully enough will be available for the F&F.

4. Bobbi Brown concealer
I am dreadfully in need of a good concealer that can cover up my numerous acne scars.
Hopefully this one will work as reviews are great for that purpose.

5. Sephora Mineral Loose Powder
   I initially got hooked on the majestic powers of loose powders through Sheer Cover. However I am almost done with my stock and Sheer Cover is a bit tricky to purchase. I had been debating if I should get Maybelline or Body Shop as their reviews have been good throughout various beauty blogs. However I recently discovered this on sephora's website an reviews quite fit my purpose.

6. Laura Mercier Pistache Hand Cream







    love this scent. hate the price of the tub. so I have resolved to try the hand cream first and make a plunge if I REALLY feel it afterward.

7. Tocca Giulietta Solid Perfume
such a lovely light scent that is less likely to bug those sensitive to fragrances, even after I reapply.
