Drugstore Skincare Haul!

I stopped by Walmart today with my parents to buy grocerys and whatnot, but me being the makeup obsessive freak that I am had to check out the makeup section. I didn't buy any makeup... (I had like four makeup products in my hand but told myself I didn't need it right now. Yay, be proud!) but I did pick up a couple of new skincare products! I've really been into skincare lately, so I might be doing a Skincare Routine soon! I feel like skincare comes BEFORE makeup.

So on my lovely trip to Walmart today, I picked up the Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Cleansing Pads! I wasn't expecting to get this (I wasn't expecting to get anything), but I saw it and it looked nice and I remembered hearing Macbarbie07 talk about it in one of her favorite videos! I used it a few minutes ago and I really like it, I have extremely dry skin and I feel like this moisturizes and exfoliates really well! They're basically pads with two sides, a cleansing side (which you use first) and a exfoliating side. It lathers like crazy which great, I think. I'll be doing a review once I use it more!

It has 28 pads, and I got it for $6.47 at Walmart!

The next thing I ended up getting is the Freeman Facial Peel-Off Mask (Cucumber) I also used this tonight and I don't really know how I feel about this. I have dry skin and I feel like this didn't help with that... I'm not sure yet! My stepdad who has oily skin also used it (LOL) and it worked AMAZING on him, it made his skin really soft and it whitened it a bit as well. I'll do a review once I figure out my thoughts towards it!
The mask comes with 6 fl. oz. and it costs $2.97 I believe!
So that is all I got at the all mighty Walmart. Again, I'll be reviewing both products soon! Have you tried any of these products? Do you like them? Let me know! xx

Haul: Walgreens and Dollar Tree + Update!

So before I go ahead and get right into the haul I want to apologize for not making a post practically all month. I can't say I've been busy because I haven't. I've just been using other websites and just kept procrastinating about making a post on my blog! The procrastination ends now. I'm hoping to be back for good- not being back for a month then not making a post for two months, no. I'm going to start taking my blog seriously. I love blogging and this is my only way to blog at the moment. I love you all! x

Now that my little update is done, I'll be doing a really quick haul. I went to Walgreens and Dollar tree today and picked up a couple of goodies I though I'd share with you all! I have a really good "dupe" for something in this haul as well! So keep reading if you want to save up to $84 dollars (:

Alright, so the first picture is everything I got from Walgreens and Dollar Tree. The second and third picture are the things I got from Walgreens. I only got four things. Cotton balls, two Sinful Colors Proffesional nail polishes, and a LE WNW Color Icon palette.

The first nail polish is a very pretty silver glitter polish called "Queen of Beauty" and the second and last nail polish I got is a beautiful silver metallic color called "Out of this World". I got both of these colors to wear on Thanksgiving, which in the United States is this Thursday (I have the whole week off! Yay!) Then I got cotton balls, which is boring. Just jumbo generic cotton balls to remove nail polish. The last thing I bought was the new WNW Color Icon Palette in Sugar Plum Fairy. I saw Stephanie's post (blog linked here) on some WNW palettes she picked up and I thought this was one was gorgeous. Lately, I've really been loving purple eye shadow so this is perfect. If you want swatches, I'll do a review once I start using it!

Now the Dollar Tree part. If you don't already know Dollar Tree is probably the only dollar store where everything is $1. Everything, nothing is $5, $4, $3, $2, or even $1.09. Everything is $1 or less! I love it, I spent $20.24 in total (but some things were for my mom and I got a bunch of snacks that I didn't include here) so I'm only showing beauty related things :P

So the first thing I got was a pack of 6 mini packs of tissue so I can take it to school now that I have a really bad cold! Then, I got a pack of makeup remover wipes. I really like the Target brand Up & Up ones but I saw these so I thought why not try it for a buck? I haven't tried it quite yet, but when I do I will be doing a review! Then I got a little loofah for you know, showers haha. I also got some nail polish remover since I've been really into nail polish and I'm running low on the one I'm using now! Now for the I guess you would call it dupe. The Daisy by Marc Jacobs dupe. The brand is called Jean Phillippe Paris. I'm sure you've seen these generic perfumes at dollar stores before, I know I have. I saw it and I was like "Oh! I love Daisy!" So I smelled it and I swear it smells EXACTLY the same! It's ONLY one dollar. If you like Daisy I reccomend this! Even though I already own Daisy by Marc Jacobs I thought either I can give it to a friend or keep it in my purse for touch ups! Then I got the generic version of Anais Anais by Cacharel. My mom used to use this ALL THE TIME when I was around three and four years old, I even remember spraying it in my eyes because I was curious.. Oh how stupid I was. It smells nice and floral so I had to get it!

I hope you guys enjoyed this haul, if you want a review or comparison of anything just let me know in a comment! Thanks for reading lovelies! xo

Transdesign Nail Polish Haul! OPI + China Glaze

(from l-r: china glaze for audrey, opi got a date to-knight, opi done out in deco, opi tickle my france-y, opi over the taupe, opi you don't know jacques, opi lincoln park after dark, opi my private jet)

Last monday I ordered from Transdesign and bought 8 nail polishes, shipping was EXPENSIVE. It was $20 to ship 8 nail polishes! I ended up spending a little over $60! That's crazy, but hey, I did it. I am very glad I did. The colors are all so gorgeous! I'm currently wearing "My Private Jet" which I painted two days ago and there has been NO chipping! Which for me, is crazy. I do a lot with my nails, including biting and they usually chip in like the first hour. Oh yeah, and the main reason I even bought My Private Jet because it is Kim Kardashian's favorite nail polish color.. (:

As you can see the color is absolutely gorgeous! I am obsessed with looking at my nails now (I know, conceited) What do you think!?

What are your favorite nail polishes? Do you like OPI? Have you tried OPI?

Sephora + MAC Haul!

Recently I ordered off Sephora, MAC, and another online store (I'll do a haul in a different post!) I was so excited to get everything in. Everything was here by Thursday. I ordered everything Monday, everything was shipped so fast! If you haven't ordered off Sephora, I advise you do if you're looking for a great deal! They're currently having a 20% off everything sale, which ends the third of November I think. I'm not quite sure so hurry! Here's everything I got!

(from l-r: MAC pro longwear concealer, bare minerals prime time foundation primer, NARS laguna bronzer, Stila lip glaze set)

Sadly, I only got one thing from MAC which I really did need. A concealer. The pro longwear is their newest concealer which came out last month, I think. It's amazing. I haven't tried out any other MAC concealers, but this is definitely the best concealer I've ever ever tried. Well, that's a lot to say for only using it twice.. Still, I cannot stress my love for it enough. If you're looking for a great concealer I highly suggest this one. The price isn't that bad, and I swear it will last you a life time. It takes so little to conceal everything. The only con I can say about this product is the pump. We all love pumps, I know, I know. But a pump on a concealer that is full coverage isn't the best idea. It pumps out WAY too much. Even when I am trying so hard not to pump a full pump a lot comes out! Other than that I cannot complain.

I finally bought the oh-so-famous NARS Laguna bronzer. I needed a good bronzer, now that I've decided I am loving bronzer. I love the color; it's not too orange and not too muddy. It's perfect. I'm not too knowing of bronzers but I do know that this is just lovely. (:

(sorry about the picture! the flash kept messing me up, forcing me to take almost 40 pictures of this little thing!)

Online this looked a lot bigger, I expected it to be a lot bigger. I was dissapointed when I opened my Sephora package, I guess I shouldn't have expected a lot when it only cost around $6. It comes with 0.5 fl oz which isn't bad at all! Most foundations and primers come with 1.0 fl oz which is only two times bigger. I tried it this morning and it works great! It's a lot thinner and more runny than smashbox photofinish primer but once it's all blended it feels the exact same. I am loving it! Hopefully it doesn't break me out!

 (Colors + Swatches from l-r: Majesty, Guava, Merry Merry, Seashell, Blush, Grapefruit, Apricot, Kitten)

I am super excited to wear them all! A lot of the colors look really similar but that's totally cool because they're all gorgeous colors anyways! I am probably most excited about Merry Merry, it's a nice sparkly red. I never wear reds, so that shall be interesting. They are all super smooth and NOT sticky! I was so suprised about that! I honestly thought they were all going to be extreamly sticky! They're not at all. They're super creamy. All the colors are very lovely. This was only $25! Plus the 20% off makes it $20 which makes it a super steal!

Random Mini Haul!

I was browsing around luuux the other day when I saw this post that said 50% off Wet N' Wild cosmetics, so of course I instantly clicked on the post and read the details! The deal ended today (sadly) so I had to go to make my mom drive me to Walgreen's! Don't worry; she bought a couple of things herself haha. I didn't go crazy, I only bought three Wet N' Wild things.

Also, I got a metal tin from the salvation army thrift store to put rings in. I'm not sure how that will work out but it was only $0.99, I couldn't resist.



                                                 (Wet N' Wild Walking On Eggshells Trio with swatches)

I got this trio for $1.50, yes $1.50. That is incredible. These eyeshadows are extremely pigmented, smooth, and easy to blend. This is a great trio for an everyday neutral look. Such a great steal!

(Wet N' Wild Lust Palette with swatches)

I paid $2.50 for this. WHAT? yes. The second color on the second row is really the reason I bought it. The color is so different. It's a flat black with purple shimmer. Most people describe it as what MAC's beauty marked was supposed to be. The matte colors are kind of chalky, but nothing terrible whatsoever.

(Revlon Nail Polish in Peach Petal)

The color is beautiful. I love it, the consistancy of it is not great; I'm still not sure on my feelings towards it. It dries super super slow, I let it dry for at least 10 minutes and it still wouldn't dry. So, I went ahead and put another coat and took this pictures and took it off right after. Hopefully next time I try it, it works great. Hopefully.

(Wet N' Wild Nutty single eyeshadow with swatch)

A lot of people said a good dupe for satin taupe is this eyeshadow. I don't agree. Its similar, but definitely not a "dupe". It is a really pretty color though! I will be for sure using this!

(*Sorry I didn't swatch the revlon lipgloss! There's tons of swatches out there, just google it if you were curious!)
