Oooh this is a fun one! My biggest haul has to be when I was shopping in New York and I took a little trip to the MAC Pro store. I purchased a ton of pigments, brushes and eyeshadows. I know it was over $600. I wish I would of taken a picture of it. I was in MAC overload. :)
In terms of quantity my Sugarpill + Beautylish order was essentially all but two of the loose shadows and one palette plus eyeshadow. In terms of price it would be my Birchbox order which neared $300 but I paid under $6 out of pocket.
I would call mine a "haul gift" because I didn't pay for it because it was a gift from a family member but she gave me a collection of Sunday Riley skincare products and off the top of my head I think it all came out to $600 bucks. Cleanser, Juno serum, moisturizer, moisturzing sunscreen, some night serum, tinted skin primer, eye serum.
My largest haul in terms of money spent was a Sephora one I did toward the start of the year -- UD Naked 2 Palette, Illamasqua Rich Liquid Foundation (which I ended up swapping), and Laura Mercier Oil-Free Foundaton Primer. Over $110 before tax.
In terms of numbers of items, probably my most recent Sephora haul. UD Smoked Palette, a MUFE Aqua Shadow, a Fresh Sugar Kisses Mini Lip Duo (birthday freebie), a Buxom lipgloss deluxe sample (code used), a CoverFx Matte Foundation Primer sample (chosen at checkout), and a TokyoMilk Dark perfume sample (chosen at checkout).
I think my most expensive haul at one time was just gifted to me via my boyfriend who gave me Chanel make up, 2 eyeshadow palettes, 2eye liners, 1lipstick,1blush, and 1nail polish color,&1 lip gloss. As for myself I have brought so much for myself lets say in a weeks time, I don't know how much I spent( I think I am a boarder line hoarder)lol, but it was a 20 palette inglot eyeshadow, along with a 4color blush palette, along with 4 individual eyeshadows, a lipgloss, 2 face/body illuminaters, ordered gel eyeliners, more eyeshadow & eye liner pencils from bhcosmetics te very next day. I think I need an intervention ;)
My most expensive haul was when I ordered my MAC Pro Student kit which was almost $600 and came with a little bit of everything. In second place would come my IMATS 2011 haul I believe I spent almost $400.
I'm a sucker for online shopping, I believe in one night I ordered five Sugarpill shadows, six China Glaze polishes, two OCC Lip Tars, a few Illamasqua lipglosses and cream pigments from Sephora, and a couple pairs of earrings from Forever 21. I believe that was a $280 night haha
holy cow emma j!!!!!! that is a lot of money..how much makeup did you get?
and lauren d. LOVE the lip tars. so micely pigmented. and sounds like fun shantell!
It wasn't even thaaaat much makeup now that I think about it. But it's a professional sized kit and that includes my brushes, foundations, case, air brush kit. So it's a really comprehensive kit and the makeup was mostly kryolan so that's pretty expensive stuff and also I live in Australia and its all more expensive here unfortunately.
Hasnt happened yet. LOL. I think it will be this year , because I want some things from Urban Decay's holiday line ( the vice palette and the eyeliner set )
