40% Off @ CVS Haul

CVS Drugstores have Wet-N-Wild, NYColor & Physicians Formula whole entire line on sale for 40% Off this week, I was pretty excited because usually its not that much. & it was the entire line, not excluding certain items so even the newest fall collections are eligible! And the 99 cent items were ringing up 40% off! So this is what I've picked up so far...I may go back..! Also always be sure to check for coupons when you come in. They have the machine up front and now you don't have to have your card you can just type in your phone number and it prints right out, I had $5 worth of CVS Bucks I didn't even know about and I applied them to my purchase so that was exciting ! This current sale runs until Saturday then Sunday it all changes again! So hurry hurry and let me know what deals you find!

Standing in line with my finds & my coupons!

I ended up with 2 WNW products & 2 NYColor products that were all 40% Off and I've been wanting to try the Maybelline Fit foundation stick so even though it wasn't on any type of sale whatsoever I still bought it, hey I had extra $5 off w/ my CVS bucks.
 
I already am in love w/ WNW eye shadows and I love neutrals so here we go.

NYColor eyeshadow look - Skyrise Steel palette & Big Bold Curl mascara

Last week the wonderful people at NYColor sent me a box of goodies to try & review on my blog. I'm already a NYColor fan but they sent me new items to give a whirl. I haven't had the chance to try them all out yet but I'm getting there...

 
This is my box of goodies! Thank you Danielle @ NYC, she was amazing to work with. Super nice and very helpful !
 
 
Lots of fabulous lip products ! Gloss, Balm & Stains (oh my!)

 
mascaras with curled wands are my favorite !!!

 
Defiantly been wanting to try a new primer, hmm maybe this will be my new holy grail primer!

 
I LOVE eyeshadow palettes that come with colors that compliment each other,  makes for a no brainer application when I'm in a hurry & great for travel.. and I haven't used the sparkling eye dust but I did swatch it and it's super pigmented !!!!!
 
 
Today I posted this photo on Instagram and I did a whole face using a mix of new NYC products and ones I already had (West Side Wine blush is my FAVE) crazy me deleted half the photos on accident :( but I do still have some eye pictures showing off the Big Bold Curl mascara & the Skyrise Steel palette
 
 
I covered my lid in the white "highlight" color then put the gray tone in the crease, layered the black on the outside corner of my lid and lightly brought it in about halfway then mixed the black & gray to make my crease more intense then the white highlight on the brow bone. Added a few layers of the Big Bold Curl mascara onto curled eye lashes and I'm done. I would probably not do this as a day time look again but defiantly for a night out !! The shadows went on easily and blended great , they did not leave fall out all over my face and that's always a plus!

Mini Make-Up Haul 8-27-13

Any store I EVER go into I always check their beauty aisle for any deals they may have, the Dollar Tree is no exception. Actually its one of my favorite places to pick up great beauty deals for only $1 !!!! If you've never been to a DT you need to go asap ! They most always carry the L.A. Colors brand but other notable brands I've spotted are Bonnebell, E.L.F., L'Oreal, Milani, Covergirl, Sally Hansen, NYColor & Olay. I can't promise yours will have those... it is hit & miss. Sometimes I go and leave with nothing other times I spend more money than I would like to admit in a place where nothing is over a dollar. Besides cosmetics & make up brushes I've also bought nail polish, np remover, make up remover wipes, emery boards, tweezers, cuticle clippers, and so on and so on ! Oh and they have nice candles holders , and other glass dishes and small vases that easily double as brush holders and for only $1 !!!!! So I stopped in today and this is what I bought....

My Mini Haul !
 
L'Oreal blush in Caribbean Coral & bronzy color blush but it will be used as Bronzer for contouring!
They had another color of blush...Flamingo? I didn't get it but I should have.
 
NYColor eye shadow palette in Urban Spice
 
L.A. Colors loose pigment eye shadow in Black Pearl
besides the black I seen white, gold, & a pink. Should have bought those too.
 
E.L.F. Studio contour brush
I've bought tons of E.L.F. brushes from DT but never a Studio Brush. Of all the ones they had today this was the only one I didn't have so I grabbed it.
