Haul: TJ Maxx, Target, Ulta
Sooo with all the high end stuff I'm doing, I want to kind of throw in some more drugstore products for this blog. What I might do is just every once and a while go to the drugstore and just get like $20 worth of drugstore stuff and then I'll review and update you guys. I also think I'll try to go to stores like TJ Maxx and maybe Nordstrom Rack every once and a while because those stores are a great way to get high end products for a good deal... so yeah. I love a good deal, and I want to include some more good deals here. Lol.
TJ Maxx
I was really excited for what I got at TJ Maxx because its something I've wanted for a really long time, but its really expensive and I've never wanted to bite the bullet and buy it... and I was going to save my Ulta points for it... but then I got makeup instead... and I was happy because they had this at TJ Maxx for half off. And that something is... Marc Jacobs Dot Perfume! This stuff smells really good! I was a little nervous I wasn't going to like it anymore... but I thought it was a good deal still and I did end up still liking it... so I was super happy with that.
My TJ Maxx didn't have a ton of makeup, I know at some places they have stuff from Kat Von D and things like that... mine doesn't. They had some Elf and some nail polishes (I was looking for Pacific Blue... but they didn't have it!) I think I even saw a Butter London Lipstick and a BH Cosmetics contour palette or something. None of them looked like they were in the best shape though, but all the fragrance's that they had looked to be in good shape and they were wrapped up nicely and everything. I still checked before I left the parking lot that something was in the box, because I've seen people get things before only to realize they were not in the box when they got home... so just double check, particularly if your TJ Maxx looks a little messy in the beauty section. Lol.
Btw this was the $60 size of the perfume and it was $30 in store... so that was good!
Target
Target wasn't super exciting. I needed some shaving cream so I got the EOS in the Vanilla Scent which I like a lot. I have a small Whish shave cream that I'm going to use up... but still. Lol.
And I got a Dove Dry Shampoo. I've never tried this one and I'm thinking of buying some Dry Shampoo in the VIB Sale... but I kind of needed some just to see if it extends the life of my curls so they look a little better with second day hair. I'll update in a Monday Musts or something with how this works.
Ulta
This is the drugstore part of the haul lol. And this was more than $20... but I got some good stuff. Lol.
First and foremost the non-drugstore part I went in for my free Birthday Gift which is a Full Size Marvelous Moxie Lip Gloss in the shade Birthday Babe. I have one of these that came in the I <3 my Bff set. That one is kind of sheer and sparkly, but this one is a bit more opaque. Its pretty! I like it and it was free!
Then I got another Essence Gel Nail Polish in the shade Amazed by You. I love the other ones of these that I love the one in Let's Get Lost that I have and I love this purple color too! I wish they had some of the colors that they had online... but thats okay. This is the one I wanted most, so I'm happy about that! I hope its as awesome as the other one.
Then I looked at the Maybelline Matte Lipsticks and I got the color Rich Ruby. This is such a beautiful matte red color. I actually think I got this one for my friend. I love Maybelline lipsticks... they will be featured greatly in an upcoming Top 5 friday with some Top 10 Products... but yeah. These are good and I love the color and I'm excited to use it.
Then I looked at Prestige's makeup and I got two eyeshadows that just looked like they needed to come home with me. I got the True Metals Eyeshadow in the shade Copper... This is a color I probably have quite a few of in my collection, but it looked like something I could touch and play with and it would look amazing and soft and I just wanted it in my life... Its beautiful, it swatches beautifully it feels beautiful... its everything I wanted and more .
And even more exciting than that shadow probably is the shadow Hocus Pocus. This is one of their Long Term Relationship shadows. It looks absolutely beautiful. It looks like Urban Decay's Solstice or the shade Kindness from the Coffee Break With Dani Colourpop Quad... its gorgeous and sparkly and it wanted to come home with me... and I let it!
Then I got something I'm a little sad about cause it looks like someone might have swatched it... but it is the Nyx Slide on, Glide on, Stay On and definitely Turn On Liner in the shade Golden Bronze... I kind of want to return this because it does look like someone swatched it... but I'm hoping they didn't use it cause I want to use it like right now... its such a pretty color. Its dull on the top though... which just frustrates me. These aren't packaged or sealed and its like what they hell Ulta, you could totally put a seal on this! But I don't think any of them were and I don't really live near an Ulta and I want this on my face right now! Ughhhh!
Its a beautiful color, I swatched it myself too... but damn. I'll probably return it or throw it out cause thats nasty and it wasn't cheap... so yeah. That was sort of a fail. Beautiful color... but a fail. And I was going to get a Rimmel nude liner but didn't because it looked picked over and they weren't in packaging either... so it especially sucks!
Anyway... total first world problem! Lol.
Byeee!
