Avon Calling … Avon Haul!

This is what happens when you order one thing from an Avon catalog and your Avon representative gives you the next campaign catalog along with a sample of a lipstick. Checking out the sample you then try it, love the color and decide to order it … along with other things that you may OR may not need.  Story of my life, particularly when it comes to Avon ordering because Avon sucks you in every time!

Here’s what I picked up:

Avon Totally Kissable Lipstick in Mauve Allure

Avon Totally Kissable Lip Gloss in Mauve Kiss

Avon Totally Kissable Lip Gloss in Sweetly Peach

Avon Glimmerstick Lip Liner in Mystery Mauve

QUESTION:

What is one of your favorite Avon products?

Dollar Tree Milani Haul

While at Dollar Tree I was quite surprised to find Milani lip products especially because I’ve heard rave reviews about some of the Milani lip liners.  So for $1 who was I to pass up such a great deal?  My local store didn’t have a very wide selection – they had 3 lip liner shades and 2 lip gloss shades.  I’ve read elsewhere online that some stores have had baked eye shadows available as well as additional lip gloss shades available.  So with that, I picked up 3 lip liners and 1 lip gloss shade.  Upon getting home, I was super excited to swatch and was pleasantly surprised with the color payoff on all four products!

Here’s what I picked up:

-          Milani Lip Gloss in Red Delicious

-          Milani Lip Liner in Simply Natural

-          Milani Lip Liner in Berry Charming

-          Milani Lip Liner in Satin Rose

QUESTION:

Have you picked up or spotted any Milani products at Dollar Tree?

LONG awaited CVS haul!

Yes, I’m really far behind, but better late than never.  This is a haul I did I want to say … in July ::hangs head in shame::.  I want to say it was July, but it was around the time that CVS was doing their second round of clearance on beauty related items.  I saw a haul by Madison (on LUUUX) featuring the 3D Sally Hansen polishes and if I recall correctly, I saw swatches by Heatherann (on LUUUX) for one of the shades so I made an excuse as to why I needed to rush to CVS right away.  Thankfully when I got there they still had the Sally Hansen polishes which were on clearance for $1.75.  Oddly enough most of the shades that others were picking up were not on clearance at my store only 4 colors were – but I only purchased 3 because the fourth was just a shade I would never wear because it was so light.  I had ECB’s to spend so I made sure I reached my $20 limit to save $5 and I stacked it with a 25% off and a few manufacturers coupons so I only ended up spending I want to say around $5 for all of this if I remember correctly.

Here’s what I picked up:

-    Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate Lipstick in the shade 08
-    Sally Hansen HD Hi-Definition Nail Color – Byte
-    Sally Hansen HD Hi-Definition Nail Color – DVD
-    Sally Hansen HD Hi-Definition Nail Color – Wavelength
-    Covergirl Outlast  lip color in 536 Spicy Beige

What’s in my purse – Beauty Edition

I tore my handbag apart yesterday afternoon in search of a nail clipper (that I could not find).  I quickly realized how much STUFF I carry around with me on a daily basis just because my purse is a black hole and holds everything but the kitchen sink.  No wonder my shoulder starts to hurt after lugging my bag around for a while.  I sometimes have more this depending upon the situation, but nonetheless this is what I carry around with me daily – minus a stick of deodorant which I forgot to picture.  Yes, I carry deodorant with me … that’s not weird, is it?  I admit I only use 4-5 of these things regularly, other than that they are just taking up space and helping make my right arm stronger than my left.

Here’s all that I carry around:

Olay – Wet Cleansing Clothes
Neosporin To Go Anti-Bacterial Spray
Vitamin Water lip gloss
Blistex – Lip MedEx
Udderly Smooth lotion
EOS Cucumber Melon lotion
Walgreen’s brand SPF 55
Avon – Silicone Glove lotion
Elf – Berry Blush lip gloss
Maybelline Baby Lips – Peach kiss
Atomizer filled with Fancy by Jessica Simpson
