I Feel Terribly Fancy Now That I Own Chanel Oil Blotting Sheets

fancy makeup

A friend of mine gifted me with a $35 package of Chanel Papier Matificant de Chanel recently. Dude, these are probably my most expensive blotting papers evers!

I feel terribly fancy!

That’s the thing about makeup and beauty right? Sometimes it can just make you feel pretty even if you aren’t wearing it on your face!

How about you?

What beauty product have you purchased recently that really made you feel good? Or even pretty?

Do share!

P.S. I’ll probably never used these blotting sheets! They are just too pretty for use. I’ll just keep them in my purse and occasionally take them out to maybe stroke them or whisper to them how pretty they are!

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    I just bought the Urban Decay Highlighter in Fireball yesterday. I have been lusting after it for a while, but found that the Colourpop highlighters worked just as well and are so much cheaper. But then my tax refund came in, and I went for it. No, it’s not really expensive, but it’s something that I didn’t need. And I love it. I kept taking it out of my makeup box and swatching it over and over.

      haha! I love that feeling of “I really didn’t need this but it is so pretty!” Enjoy it Erin 😀

    Bobbi Brown Art stick in “hot orange” . Omg, When I put that on, I feel like j.Lo on the red carpet in a pair of Jimmy choo’s. Lol, slightly dramatic, but you see my point! I keep the rest of my makeup light and that lip colour brightens my whole face up.

    I splurged on Lipstick Queen’s Eden. Her lip products, from the packaging to the contents, feel so luxe and perform so well.

      I agree. People hated on her $50 lipstick silver screen lipstick because it was so costly, but I’d totally splurge again on it. It’s a fabulous formula!

    In keeping with your last (?) item, my Lorac Pro palette. I know it’s not so super fancy but I don’t typically use eye shadow palettes so using one makes me feel fancy and kind of like a makeup artist (in my head, anyway). My Marc Jacobs lipstick, too. And some perfumes — like my new Jo Malone.

      doesn’t matte 🙂 as long as it MAKES YOU feel fancy 🙂

    Anything by Le Mer. It’s a splurge without a doubt. However, 35.00 for blotting papers. Not sure I could do that. Not even for the iconic Chanel.

  • Jasmine

    Anything by Hourglass. I got the blush palette and the primer. The packaging is just sooo nice.

    My slowly growing collection of Tom Ford and Guerlain make me feel like a princess in a tiara! Yes, I am a BBT nerd.

    • Isabella Muse

      I hear ya ;-D Tom ford makes me feel like the queen of England!

    I guess any time I buy high end, it makes me feel a little fancy. The pretty colors, the packaging, the quality…it’s the little extras. I almost never buy luxury brands, but I’m sure I’d feel fancy if I did.

    Guerlain Meteorites make me feel fancy. Especially the pressed version in that heavy, silver and enamel compact. My Guerlain eye quads do, too. Red lipstick in a pretty tube always makes me feel glamorous and fancy.

    I have a few items from Guerlain that make me feel fancy, and luckily they perform well too. I also bought the La Mer concealer a couple months ago and I love it despite the price; best concealer ever IMHO.

    A couple years ago I bought myself that fancy camellia printed Chanel Christmas highlighter. I’d been craving it and got it as a present to myself with some semi-windfall money. I don’t think I’d ever paid $75 for a single cosmetic item in my entire life (aside from fragrance). And ridiculous as it is, it’s too pretty for me to want to actually USE it very often. It’s got that gorgeous 3-D flower thing on it and I don’t want to rub that out. But just having it makes me feel like it’s a really special treat.
    Crazy, huh?
