Great Find at Target!

So today I went to Target just to browse for a bit, well really I needed some facial wipes, but even when I go in for one thing I end up browsing through most of the store. Anyway, as I am walking by cleaning supplies there's a clearance display so I start digging through it and I found a Physicians Formula Flawless Airbrushing Kit - now the shade for the pressed powder is in light and I am a medium but! I loved the bronzer and blush and after looking at the price I decided that it was worth it even if I didn't use the pressed powder (not a powder girl anyway since I have dry skin) regular price $19.23-- clearance price $4.86
I can't wait to try these guys out!

Urban Decay 3 Deluxe Samples

This morning I received an email from Urban Decay for an offer they are currently running. With any $40 purchase you will get a Supercurl Curling Mascara (which I happen to love), a 24/7 Glide-on Pencil in any color ( I have a few, love them all) and lastly a Stardust Eyeshadow in Bobby Dazzle. I think it's a great offer and might just go ahead and get that Naked 2 palette.

CVS Huge Beauty Clearance Sale

So, one day sometime this week (can't remember when exactly) I read on one of my favorite blogs nouveau cheap that some people had spotted some major savings at CVS and mind you this came as a surprise to me since just a couple of weeks back there had been clearance stickers all over the Beauty section but with no actual savings, this time around though it seemed like it was finally true. I was out and about on Saturday going to get my eyes checked out in a city about 40 mins from my house and by chance there was a CVS by the Dr's office so after my appt. I decided to go in and check for myself if the sale was indeed happening. OMG was it ever! my favorite part of this sale is that REVLON which is one of my favorite drugstore brands had stuff for 75% off, I was in heaven, I browsed around for a bit and bought some Revlon and L'oreal stuff- went to the register and my total was only $27 and some change. Today I went on nouveaucheap again to check if there were any new findings and of course there were. Now I had access to a master list, and boy was I itching to go to my favorite CVS. Sadly, when I got there nothing had any stickers, so I pulled out my trusty iPhone and went to the master list. This time around I grabbed the Physicians Formula moisturizer and a bunch of Revlon lipsticks, my total this time around was $20 and some change. All in all I am so happy with these two purchases, I have added things to my collection which I have wanted for a while, others I just thought would be fun to try out. Anyway, I'd rather post the pics than continue to type with horrible grammar.

 I love that this has to different settings- Haven't tried them yet but will soon.

 Picture coming soon! Decided to get this because of the small wand, I have stray lashes at the outer corner of my eyes that regular wands don't reach.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects

So last month I received a Beauty VoxBox from Influenster and in it I received the Sally Hansen Salon Effects in Kitty, Kitty, I cannot express how excited I was because I have been dying to try them since they came out but just never got around to it (I think I feared they wouldn't work) So when I saw them in my VoxBox I was beyond thrilled, I kept saving them for a "special occasion" but I have t come across one so far and so today I just said "that's it! I am putting these on" and so I went ahead and did it. The application was so easy, the instructions very simple and the results are great. Peel, stick, pull, smooth out. Done. I love the Salon Effects so far and not only do I recommend it but I will definitely try them again!

Circle Sunglasses

I've wanted circle sunglasses for a very long time now, the problem was that the ones I lusted for were by Chanel and....yea! Anyway the ones I finally got are only similar to the Chanel's in the fact that they're both round, nonetheless I love the ones I could actually afford (which was about $8 with free shipping from eBay) major win in my book.

Maybelline MegaPlush Volume Express

Ok, so I read about this mascara on nouveau cheap (one of my favorite blogs) and went on a hunt for it. I hit up my favorite stores: CVS, Walgreens and Rite Aid but I couldn't find it, then one day I went food shopping at Target and decided to check out the makeup section (I don't usually because I don't feel they have good deals) and there it was--- waiting for me! I grabbed it faster than you can say "Oh there it is". I finally was able to try it the next day and though it is not absolutely amazing it is very good! The formula is so light yet it gives good length and volume. So far I'm on my first week of giving it a try and I can say that this might be the drugstore mascara I've been looking for.
