Sample Saturdays at Nordstrom

Glambo is a fan!

Did you know that Nordstroms gives out free cosmetic samples every Saturday?

Last weekend, we received mostly perfume samples. Since this Glambo Girl applies perfume before leaving the house, spraying a fragrance in the store isn't usually an option. Perfume samples are great for traveling, and have helped us discover new favorite scents. Nordstroms also gives other types of samples, and often has them available on the counter ready for your selection. If there is a product you would like to try, a sales associate will prepare a sample for you to take home.

Free cosmetic samples? How could Nordstrom not get a Glambo Kiss of Approval for their Sample Saturdays?

On the 12th Day of Christmas...

I took some time for a ...

MAC-over!  I took a good hour and had one of the pros at my local Nordstrom MAC counter make me over.  This was a perfect Christmas Gift-to-self.  The awesome pro that helped me, Josey, really knew her stuff, and was eager to share tons of information and new products.

I opted for a full MAC'd-out eye, with the glam false lashes and all the works.  I felt so pretty, and came home with all of the MAC goodies I need to replicate this eye at home for a proper Holiday Evening out (New Year's Eve, perhaps?).

The folks at the MAC counter ask that you commit to spending $50 when you have them do your makeup (and trust me, I spent more), but there are so many great products to choose from that you'll be sure to find something you love to take home. 

This Christmas, be sure to do something nice for yourself, too.
