CVS Clearance Haul (Feat. Kiss, PF, Clean & Clear, Maybelline, CG, Revlon, L'Oreal, and Essence of Beauty)


Hey everyone! So its that time of year again! CVS is having their clearance sale again! Yay! This time, they don't really have that much but thats fine with me. Its better than not having anything on clearance at all. What makes this clearance sale even better is that CVS is printing out 30% off entire purchase at the red box machine. Even though these 30% off coupons can't be used on sale and promotion products, they can be used on clearance items, which makes the deals even better! But if you use manufacturer coupons, then you would save even more money!

WHAT I BOUGHT:
PF Hydrating & Balancing Moisturizer SPF 15
PF Ultra-Hydrating Day & Night Cream
I bought both of them items because they were only $4.99USD each. Regularly priced, they were $19.99USD plus tax. I don't know why they are on clearance when they were just recently released but I guess PF is discontinuing the Moisture Balance line since CVS tends to put discontinued items on clearance. I might give these to my mom since I already bought the SPF15 one a few weeks ago and don't really need a back-up.


Clean & Clear Advantage Popped Pimple Relief Gel Pen
This was under $3USD but I had a $1USD off any Clean & Clear coupon, which made the deal even sweeter. I love Clean & Clear so I bought this to try out. I really like how its meant for on-the-go. Plus it does dry to a white film like the other Clean & Clear acne stuff that I have. This one dries to a clear film so its great to use whenever and you don't have to worry about it peeling and looking nasty.


CoverGirl Shadow Quad "225 Berries & Cream"
This was only $3.15USD and I had a $1USD of any CG product, so I only paid $2.15USD plus tax. Yeah! I bought this because I haven't tried CG shadows much and I also don't have a lot of purple shade shadows.


Maybelline Stylish Smokes Quad "12Q Plum Smokes"
This was on clearance for $4.15USD and with my coupon for $1USD off, I only paid $3.15USD plus tax! I love these Maybelline quads so I always try to buy a couple whenever they are on clearance. Again, I bought more purple shades because I don't have a lot of purple shadows in my collection.


Kiss Nail Dress "Princess"
I wasn't sure about buying this since I already know how to do cheetah/leopard print designs on my nails but these have fake "studs" looking bumps on the nail stickers. I am not sure if I am going to keep these or give them away. This was $3.49USD but with my $1USD off coupon, I only paid $2.49USD plus tax.


Essence of Beauty Smokey Eye Shadow Brush (X2)
These were $1.75USD each. When I got home, I found out these inside the packaging, there is an $1USD coupon for any Essence of Beauty brush and it has no expiration date. I am definitely going to be using these coupons to buy more of these brushes. I actually like these kind of brushes since they are great and all you would typically need for an eye look. The shadow brush is great for all over the lid and to apply shadow onto the crease. Plus the other end is great for applying darker colors onto the outer corner and blending.


L'Oreal Studio Secrets Anti-Dull Skin Primer
I bought the one meant for light skin. They have another one for medium to darker skintone but since I have light, fair skin I bought the one meant for light skin. I never tried this primer before but have always wanted to get it. I never could justify paying over $12USD for a drugstore primer that I might or might not like so since it was on clearance, I knew I had to get it. This was $6.65USD but with my $2USD off coupon, I only paid $4.64USD plus tax. If you have tried this primer before, definitely let me know if its any good or not.


Revlon Moon Drops Lipstick "590 Lilac Champagne"
I never tried this line of lipsticks from Revlon before but since it was on clearance, I bought it to try out. I bought the one that has a creme finish since I don't really like lip products that give off frosty finishes. This was $2.49USD but with my $1USD off coupon, I only paid $1.49USD plus tax. That is definitely a great deal for a Revlon lipstick!


So that is all for my CVS clearance haul. So far, I haven't tried any of these products yet but I will soon! Have you ever tried any of these products before? Have you been taking advantage of the CVS clearance sale? Definitely let me know if you have tried out any of these products before an what products have you been buying from the sale! All I know for sure is that I am definitely going back and getting some more items! So definitely stay tuned for my other CVS hauls, which will be coming up within the next few weeks.

CVS Haul (Feat. L'Oreal, Ardell, and PF)

Hey everyone! Guess what? I somewhat overdid it at CVS today. LOL They were having a great deal on their gas card promotion that I just could pass it up. If you would like to see how I did my transaction for the gas card, I will show it below (keep in mind, I had a bunch of coupons LOL). Plus the CVS store that I went to had some Ardell Double Up lashes on clearance! I never tried Ardell lashes before so I only bought two to try out. Plus the double up lashes are more fuller than their regular lashes.

What I bought:
ARDELL DOUBLE UP FALSE LASHES
These were on clearance for only $0.88USD plus tax, which is a super great deal for name brand lashes. I never tried these before but I remember people talking about these on YouTube before. I bought two different lashes. Both are black but one is 205 and the other is 203. I can't wait to try these out but I will probably be keeping them until my friend's wedding.



PHYSICIANS FORMULA HYDRATING & BALANCING MOISTURIZER SPF15
I had a $12USD off CVS coupon for any PF skincare item (exclusing cosmetics) that was expiring, so I thought it was the perfect time to buy it. Plus I also had a $5USD off any $15USD skincare CVS coupon as well. This moisturizer was only $19.99USD, so minus both coupons (which is $17USD off), I only paid $2.99USD plus tax. I haven't tried this yet. I wanted the one for acne problematic skin but none of the CVS stores that I went to carry that. All they had was the moisture balance and another for anti-aging. If anyone has tried this, please let me know!



Now be warned before you scroll down! LOL You are going to be seeing a bunch of L'Oreal Single Eyeshadows. Keep in mind, that I will not be keeping all of these shadows to myself. I might have some in a giveaway and give some to my family and friends. I bought about 14 single eyeshadows, since they were the cheapest item to take advantage of the gas card deal. The shades that I bought are:
830 Deep Mocha (x2)
405 Taffeta (x3)
803 Seashell (x3)
820 Golden Sunset (x2)
805 Morning Light (x2)
820 Golden Sunset (x2)
901 Frosted (x1)


830 Deep Mocha (x2)

405 Taffeta (x3)

803 Seashell (x3)

820 Golden Sunset (x2)

805 Morning Light (x2)

820 Golden Sunset (x2)

901 Frosted (x1)

I split everything into two transactions because it was more easier. I am going to show you how the scenarios will look like with CVS coupons included or just with manufacturer coupons. LOL Keep in mind, that prices may vary by store and region. Also, be sure to include taxes into your calculations. I will be showing the transactions without taxes included because taxes vary by region.

Scenario 1 (with CVS coupons and manufacturer coupons combined):
Buy (8) L'Oreal Single Eyeshadows at BOGO 50% OFF
    - (4) will be priced at $4.99 (full price)
    - (4) will be priced at $2.50 (50% off)
        => Use $3 off $10 cosmetic purchase CVS coupon
        => Use (8) $2 off any L'Oreal Cosmetic Item coupon (found at most CVS stores on new L'Oreal displays)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Total (before coupons): $29.96
Total (after coupons): $10.96
Plus get back $10 GAS CARD


Scenario 2 (without CVS coupons):
Buy (8) L'Oreal Single Eyeshadows at BOGO 50% OFF
    - (4) will be priced at $4.99 (full price)
    - (4) will be priced at $2.50 (50% off)
        => Use (8) $2 off any L'Oreal Cosmetic Item coupon (found at most CVS stores on new L'Oreal displays)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Total (before coupons): $29.96
Total (after manufacturer coupons): $13.96
Plus get back $10 GAS CARD

If you any any questions, please feel free to ask! This is a very great deal, so definitely take advantage. Just typing up these scenarios is making want to go to CVS again and buy some more. LOL But then I have to remember that with the tax, the price is alittle bit higher but its still a great deal! So far, I have (2) $10 Gas Cards and the limit is 5 per household card.
