Collective Haul (Feat. Target, Dollar Tree, Sephora, & Ulta)


Hey everyone! This is probably my first collective post on my blog. Usually I like to separate my haul posts by stores so people won't get confused but since I want to get all these products up on my blog, I decided to just put everything all together in one post. Keep in mind, this haul wasn't done in one day. Just to let you know. LOL These products were bought from Target, Dollar Tree, Sephora and Ulta. I am just going to categorize everything by the store. I was thinking about doing a video on this but I might just do my second video on a new haul instead. Let me know what you guys think!

TARGET:
◊ On-The-Go Essentials Vaseline & Q-Tips (x2)
I bought the last two that I saw at this Target. I have never seen these On-The-Go Essentials at my Target stores before so I was surprised to see them on clearance. I made sure to grab all the ones that I could find since it was such a great price. They were $1.74 each and you know that the Vaseline Lip Therapy are already about $2-$3, depending on the store. Plus you get a pack of Q-tips in a travel container! I love the Vaseline Lip Therapy so when I saw that they had them in a bonus pack, I just had to buy these.


◊ Revlon Nail Polishes "220 Enchanting" & "590 Trendy"
I can't remember the actual price that I paid for these but I remember I had coupons for them. You know me, I hardly ever buy a drugstore beauty product without using a coupon. Enchanting is a medium lavender. Trendy is a gorgeous medium-toned teal. I love Revlon polishes because they are usually opaque within two coats. I actually thought that both of these polishes are creme finishes, which are some of my favorite finishes for polishes but if you look closely, Enchanting has a tad bit of pink shimmer in it. That was actually a nice surprise when I got home and looked at it closer!


SEPHORA:
◊ Sephora I.T Blending Brush
This is actually my second purchase of Sephora brushes. They are on sale right now and I couldn't help myself. I have been wanting to try out a high-end blending brush for a while now so I bought this two try out. The only thing that I didn't like was that there was no tester for this brush at the Sephora store that I went to so I didn't know what this brush looked it. When I got home, I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't like the shape of my other typical blending brushes. To me, this blending brush looks like a fuller, fat eyeshaadow brush. Hopefully this will still work great as a blending brush.

◊ Sephora Pro Precision Crease Brush
There wasn't a tester for this brush either so I couldn't tell how this brush felt. I could see a bit through the bristle holder but I couldn't tell how dense it was. Its a nice skinny crease brush. I would probably end up using this to apply shadow onto my crease and my outer corner and blending it out a bit. I have already washed this one and am a bit sad to see some of the bristles straying out. Hopefully it will stay soft and keep its shape after constant use.


ULTA:
◊ Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil "004 Black Brown"
I never tried this before but right now, I am looking for a great eyebrow product and I have been wanting to try the Anatasia Brow Powder Duo for a while now but for right now, I wanted to try out other drugstore brow products first. I heard a lot of great things about this brow pencil so I decided to give it a try. I like how it comes with a brush for your brows. I was looking for swatches online while I was at the store and Dark Brown looked like the only dark shade without any red undertone to it.

◊ Healthy Sexy Hair Soy Renewl Argan Oil
This was actually a sample. Ulta had sent me an email saying that they were giving out this sample with no purchase necessary. I never tried any of the products from this brand before so since I was already at the store, I figured I might as well show them my email and get the sample too. Its actually a pretty small sample but the small bottle is cute. After finishing this up, I might just keep this as a display with all my other little items.


DOLLAR TREE:
◊ Cotton Rounds (x2)
I really like these cotton round and the best thing is that they are only a dollar each! Each pack contains 80 cotton rounds and these are really good. You would think that these would fall apart and leave little fuzzy bits all over your eyes or face since these are a dollar but nope, these actually hold together even when they are soaked through with makeup remover and/or toner. If you have been looking for some good cotton rounds without having to pay about $3-$4 for a pack, you should try these. You might end up liking these and end up saving money in the long run.


So those are all the products that I bought in my collective haul. Hopefully nothing was confusing and it was much easier to read by categorizing everything by store. If you have tried any of these products before, definitely let me know your thoughts on them. Plus if you have any eyebrow products that you are loving right now, please let me know which ones you are loving by commenting below. I just might try them out. Right now, I have been loving the ELF Studio Eyebrow Kit for the longest but the only problem is that I use up all the wax but hardly ever make a dent in the powder so it always seems like a waste to me, with the brow powder. I might get the Anatasia Brow Powder Duo but I am going to wait for the 20% off at Sephora before I buy it. LOL Also, in case you didn't know yet, I just posted my FIRST video on YouTube so please feel free to check it out. Please SUBSCRIBE and LIKE! The link to my YouTube channel is linked below.

CVS Haul (Feat. Physicians Formula, Milani, Clear, Nailene, & Vaseline)


Hey everyone! Its been a while since I've been shopping at CVS. I think its probably been a month since my last shopping trip there. I don't really shop at CVS that much anymore because the one by my house tends to have rude employees. There is only one cashier thats really nice but I rarely see her whenever I do shop there so its not really worth it to continue shopping at a store where the employees don't even give a concern. Plus the store is really messy and there is dust all over the product, which is just plain nasty.

What I bought:
CLEAR Scalp & Hair Therapy Total Care Nourishing Shampoo
I remembered that I had a coupon for a free Clear product, hence the whole reason why I was at CVS in the first place. I don't really know how I got the coupon but it probably came in through the mail. Either way, I love coupons for freebies! I am sure that all you guys love coupons for freebies as well. While I was there, I decided to check out the makeup aisles to see if there were any good deal running for the week but there were none that really interested me.

CVS PHARMACY Organic Cotton Rounds
I actually never knew that companies made organic cotton rounds so I thought that I might as well give them a try. These cotton rounds claim to be 100% cotton, certified organic, and grown exclusively on organic farms. I have tried these so far and they are really good, just like any other cotton rounds that I have tried. They don't fall apart or leave little fuzzy things on my face or eye area. These were on clearance at my CVS store for $1.08 each.


NAILENE Perfect Tip (x2)
I don't remember the exact price that I paid for these but they were 50% off. I bought these because I thought that they would be great for doing french tips or designs using straight or curved lines. I have done french tips myself before but I always hate how my lines are never straight so hopefully these will stick on good and work out. Each pack comes with 96 tips so I think that these will definitely last me a while.


PHYSICIANS FORMULA Eye Booster 2-in-1 Day & Night Lash Boosting Serum (x2)
I haven't tried these but I have tried the ones in the fat tubes, which is pretty the same except that you can wear the other one as an eyeliner. These come out clear so no one would be able to tell that you have serum on your lash line. These claim to make your lashes appear more glamorous  dramatic, and luscious. Supposedly 93% saw more defined lashes. I thought I might as well give this a try since I have short lashes and I would love for them to be longer. These were on clearance for 50% off. The price was somewhere around $6 for one.


MILANI Color Perfect Lipstick "07 Rose Hip"
I know, I know! I told myself that I wasn't going to be buying anymore makeup for the meantime but I just couldn't help myself. I heard that selected Milani lip products were on clearance for 75%, meaning that they would be priced around $1. I think I paid under $1.50 for this lipstick. I do have one other Milani lipstick, which I bought during the last CVS clearance sale and I hate it. It smells horrible and has no pigmentation at all, except for leaving shimmer on my lips. Since so many people were hauling these lipsticks, I thought maybe I just got a dud and decided to check out the other shades. There wasn't that many left at my display and the majority was wiped out. I bought Rose Hip because it looked like a really pretty shade plus it didn't have a horrible smell like the first Milani lipstick that I bought.


VASELINE Lip Therapy "Original"
This is my second repurchase! I love this stuff! Can anyone tell me if the big jar of Vaseline is exactly the same as this little jar because I would rather just buy a huge jar of this since I definitely see myself repurchasing again and again? If you haven't tried this before and have somewhat dry lips, you should definitely give this a try.


Thats it for my haul. I haven't tried any of these yet except for the Vaseline, which I am loving in the winter. Its just so moisturizing and feels so nice on my lips. I have swatched the Milani lipstick but haven't worn it yet because since its such a bold color, I want to wait until my lips are back to normal. If you have tried any of these products, definitely let me know how you feel about them.

QUESTIONS:
Have you tried any of these products before?
Have you ever used organic cotton rounds before?

Target Haul (Feat. Sonia Kashuk & Vaseline)


Hey everyone! I haven't been to Target in such a long time and have been seeing a bunch of posts online where they have been clearancing their nail polishes but so far, none of the ones that I have been to have anything good on clearance. Hopefully they will start clearancing their nail polishes soon because I have seen some really pretty ones lately but I don't want to pay full price for them. LOL I already have a bunch of polishes in my collection and don't want to buy anymore unless I can get them for dirt-cheap. Since I didn't see any polishes on clearance, I decided to walk around the beauty aisles anyway to see if there was anything good on clearance and I came upon two Sonia Kashuk sets.
  • Sonia Kashuk LE Studly Haute Hair
  • Sonia Kashuk LE Lips & Nail Colors
  • Vaseline Lip Therapy "Original"

The two Sonia Kashuk sets were on clearance. The SK hair set was $9.99 but on clearance for $2.98 plus I had a $2 off SK coupon, which meant I only paid $0.98 plus tax. I thought this set might be cute to give to one of my little cousins as a stocking stuffer. The other SK set was mainly for me because well, its makeup. LOL The SK set with the lip glosses and nail polishes was originally $12.99 but on clearance for $3.88 and with my $2 off SK coupon, I only paid $1.88 for this set. Yay! It comes with great colors for the fall and I love how you can match your lipgloss with your nail polish. I have never matched my lipgloss with my nails before but I thought this was a cute set, plus I never tried SK lipglosses or nail polishes before so this was a win-win for me.

The last product that I bought was the mini Vaseline lip therapy. I never tried Vaseline before but for some reason, my lips have been super dry and they have been peeling sometimes, especially when I wear certain lip products that I now try to avoid. I have been hearing so many great things about the Vaseline product so I thought I should give it a try. So far its been working really good but I wish that the packaging was a bit better, maybe in a stick form so I wouldn't have to stick my finger in there all the time. Although the packaging is pretty cute being all teeny-tiny though, I must admit. LOL
So those are all the products that I bought from Target. If you have any suggestions for any products that might help keep my lips moisturized and stays long on my lips, please let me know! I have been looking for something to get my lips back to normal ever since those L'Oreal Infallible lipsticks messed up my lips but so far, have just found okay products but not the holy-grail one. If you would like to see some swatches and reviews on the SK lipglosses and nail polishes set, let me know but I am not sure if any of you guys would still see it at your Targets since it was LE item. Just let me know anyways and I will post one up.
