Hey guys, it’s Serena Nicole. In this video I’m doing a huge collective birthday haul because I turn 27 on January 27th—my golden birthday year—and I did a little insy teensyweensy bit of damage. I start with the luxury goodies for my girlies who love designer: Louis Vuitton, Chanel, and Prada. I show you the LV Neverfull MM I grabbed for travel (especially for my Ulta Beauty Collective brand trip), the cutest dainty LV hoop earrings, and my Louis Vuitton fragrance (the one I fell in love with from a sample). Then I share the Chanel double C earrings I chose specifically because they’re thinner and not clunky, and my Prada Bonnie mini bag that’s perfect for beauty events and still fits my phone, keys, and lip combo. After that, I get into the rest: a super cozy SKIMS Valentine’s pajama set from Nordstrom, plus my Sephora and Ulta picks. I talk fragrances (including why I’m sticking to 1.7 oz sizes), a Dior Backstage Glow palette I’ve wanted “five ever,” and a hydrating moisturizer I discovered from a sample. At Ulta I grab new concealers to test, the Hourglass Vanish Airbrush Primer (because I accidentally bought the priming moisturizer before), and a strawberry lip treatment I’m literally wearing in the video. The biggest takeaway: treat yourself when you can, try samples first, and always buy what you’ll actually use—especially when it’s a pretty penny.
