Big Lots is no joke

So we were out of bottled water so I offered to go buy a pack.... hehehe. I haven't been to my local Big Lots in a while so I was like hmm I will go there and wander the aisles. Well I am so glad that I did. Now one way or another in a lifetime you will hear about a place called Ulta. I let it be known now....am not a FAN of Ulta. Why? Because I'm a Sephora wh*re....no I kid...somewhat. Lol (sigh) the inner jerk made it's way out people gees chill out. Anyways I believe if I can find the brand or item at my local CVS, Walmart, Walgreens, or even Big Lots then I shouldn't be paying the same price for the item at Ulta. The Ulta here is far from me it's in another city/county. Friends of mine's took me there thinking I'd be hooked because I am such a make up lover....wrong wrong wrong. I do love make up but at a decent price. I am such a coupon diva if you went shopping with me you might blush at the scenes that unfold. Well back to my original rant. Big Lots was like striking black gold aka oil for me today. I got the 24pk water I was seeking but I also found after much rummaging through a few dirty due to busted make up containers holding loose make up products some Revlon Matte lipsticks!!! I just checked Ulta (boooooo) and the colors I bought today are available on Ulta's site too but for $6.99 a tube... I had a wtf are u fffing kidding me moment. Well guess what? I got 2 tubes for $4 yes $2 each tube. Let me tell u these colors are fabulous. I got 001 Nude Attitude & 005 Strawberry Suede!! Love these names, I'm such a sucker for witty named products (btw OPI delivers that every time go read the names of their polishes). I'm ecstatic I got these matte colors for such a bargain...eeeek. Well I bugged the guy who has been in my life for a while but rankings fall short because he was demoted from being ______ now to guy in my life due to not completing tasks I ask of. But as soon as he unpacks my junk I will take pics of looks I do and upload more videos to Youtube :). Also I bought a pack of Epielle Green Tea Cleansing Tissues but am afraid to use them got these suckers for $1 a pack of 30 tissues. Well since I do have a new cleanser I might take my chances so YOU know if u can trust this or not. Happy deals ck out ur local bargain stores and share sales if you know of some!

Dreaded trip to Walgreens #3951

Dramatic much? Why yes I am. So 8:30pm I decided to make a run to my local Walgreens.... wish I didn't have to but I did. I'm a CVS girl is what it seems but this Walgreens is literally a block away so I was like eh save gas why not. NOTE for next time I'd rather waste the gas to a Walmart or CVS even if they're 10-15 mins away. Ok about Walgreens (#3951) this particular one really hires ANYONE. This night cashier there, ugh, he is the definition of the cashier from a bad place.... one he is sitting on a stool or in a chair the handful of times I have to go there, two he has NO customer service skill. He will ring stuff up and if u ask about the signage he tells u "the item was placed in the wrong spot." or "it's for a particular flavor/color only." I am always baffled seeing him and dreading to be in the line for his register the only register open besides beauty. Well I went to this store this time cause I needed some female ish... besides that though the signs of FINAL SALE or Buy one get one free or marked down tags all had me pondering over other items. I stumbled upon a new face foam by AcneFree the sensitive cleanser was on sale for $4.29 it was $8.49, SCORE! Then I kept browsing the shelves I come upon the natural products, LOVE 'em, I browse through J/A/S/O/N no sale, Burt's Bees no sale then I see Say Yes to Carrots Lip Butters had a mark down but only for the Carrot flavored one $1.59. I tried to find the sale flavor it was gone so I was like eh why not try it so I grabbed two I got Pomergranate and Mint each stick of lip butter was $3.29 each. I left this Walgreens after Mr Grumpy-seat's line spending a little less than $20. Well I get home in a minute.  First things first I tried the lip butter :) eeeeeeek I love it. I have been dying to try lip creams and lip butters ever since StylSuzi on Youtube mentioned lip puffs she had tried from Boots!! Well this lip butter is not tacky, sticky, or oily. It's creamy almost really like butter!! The pomergranate is white I think the flavor was for smell name sake. I did have a patch of dry skin on my lip but this lip butter took care of that. I can say right now after owning this for 2 hours literally I say go get some!! The cleanser I will use after I am done w/ my Garnier cleanser, I have another 3 days 6 washes use I'd guess. I had to blog this cause ughhh I was happy w/ my finds but sooooo not happy w/ the cashier I dread seeing him when I walk in there... Walgreens is the last resort for me because of this name-hiding-chair-sitting-in-attitude-rich cashier.

NYC long wearing nail enamel in 105-Starry Silver Glitter has the cutest round glitters in silver glitter ever. silver speckles w/ pink and blue round glitters what is not to love?? This enamel was soooo affordable and was  skeptical on spending $$$ on a product that would chip easily/fast. I've used this a few times and I must say I love the wear on this .....(sigh) cutest glitter polish I own definitely and I do recommend this. Posting pics later on what designs I came up w/ mostly Katy Perry inspired but awesome designs none the less. :)

Baby Lips Cherry Me has me for sure!! Wish I would've gotten another one. So I've noticed not all CVS(s) advertise sales the same. I am a bit disappointed w/ store 2873. I see the 50-75% off ad tags around but NO stickered items to advise what was on sale. NOT one. I left there w/ out a new cosmetic item which I am a bit peeved over. The other CVS near advertise and actually have more in stock of what is on sale. I can actually tell what is on sale because I SEE the dang stickers on the items. (sigh) enough of me whining over one dang CVS lol. I am going to try Vaseline's lip therapy...the package is a mini container that looks like the big jars of Vaseline. I am such a sucker for packaging! I've been debating on ordering make-up to try from China, Korea. and even Japan. Ebay has me fighting myself right now. UGH. Well I will see what looks neat and post pics shortly.. :) ttyl <3

Been slacking but I AM BACK



Long time no update I know :/ ehhh life has been well blah... had to sort some stuff out set my priorities straight now I am officially back. So I was looking through my bag and found some Maybelline coupons and remembered CVS sent me a 20% off coupon. So I sent the coupon from my email to my card and set off for the nearest CVS. After singing w/ Adele (Set Fire to The Rain) and Rhi-rhi I made it to my local CVS, an 8 mins drive. Well I walk in and find the coupon scanning kiosk and now armed w/ more coupons I circle the 3 aisles of make up and finally decided on my purchase. Revlon, Rimmel, Physician's, and L'Oreal made my choices hard but I stuck to my coupons. I left with Maybelline's Dream Liquid Mousse in Sand Beige med.1, Baby Lips in Cherry Me, a Dove softening body wash, and lastly the new Vaseline lip therapy. My total was $16+change but I then redeemed my coupons leaving me w/ a total of $13+change. I am now home...it's late evening but I can't help myself. I ripped open the package holding the Baby Lips and OMG (sigh) I love the smell and the hint of color it gives...so wearing this tomorrow w/ a simple face. Once I use the other products I will give an appropriate review of my honest opinion. After purchasing an item I will only give a review after 2-4 weeks of use unless the item states a longer period before seeing results. :) Happy sales people!
