Clinique Gift with Purchase at Nordstrom

You have one more week to pick up this fabulous gift with a $25 purchase (GWP) at Nordstrom! After resisting for the last week, I finally surrendered and got mine yesterday.

The bag is cute, but I must have 500 makeup bags, even after giving away so many. It's large-sized, so I will keep it and use it for something. What's inside, though, is even better. Here's the list, along with my comments.

• 7 Day Scrub Cream Rinse-Off Formula (1 oz.) - great exfoliator anyone can use
  
• Sun Face Cream SPF 30 with key chain (0.24 oz.) - tiny portion of a superb sunscreen; will give the key chain away
  
• Even Better Skin Tone Correcting Moisturizer SPF 20 (0.5 oz.) - I can try this one, although it may not be heavy-duty enough for me
  
• Travel-size Shimmering Stripes Powder Blusher in Peony - this is a gorgeous bronzer/blusher; love it!
  
• High Impact Mascara in Black (0.14 oz.) - Clinique's mascara's are world-class
  
• Different Lipstick in Ice Bloom (0.14 oz.) - beautiful color, and I love Different Lipstick!
  
• Long Last Glosswear SPF 15 in Fire Berry (0.07 oz.) - again, beautiful color
  

Not all GWPs are created equal. This one's worth seeking out, and the $25 can be spent easily. I purchased two Different Lipsticks. You could stock up on Black Honey if you can find it. Is there anyone who doesn't love Clinique's "works-for-everyone" sheer, slimline lipstick?

If you don't have a Nordstrom nearby, there's always the Web!
