New Purchases

I recently went to CVS and only intended on getting one thing, NYC Bronzer in Sunny.
I heard really great things about it and I didn't really have a bronzer before it.
However.. there were sales and coupons!

We had a coupon that was 'Buy $15 in cosmetics and get $5 off'.
Then, the NYC products were Buy 1 Get 1 50% off.

Here's what I got and the approximate/rounded prices (I can't find the receipt to pinpoint the exact amount)

NYC Smooth Skin Bronzer in Sunny - $3
Loreal False Fiber Lashes Mascara in Blackest Black - $3 (On Sale)
NYC Eyeliner Pencil in White - 50¢
Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream in Light - $9


I look forward to reviewing them once I test them out more. :D

On an unrelated note:
I'm starting to consider a 100 follower giveaway and would like some suggestions.
What would you like to see for the prize(s)? Makeup, hair products, nail polish? What kinds?
Please keep in mind this would be my first giveaway. (:


Thanks for reading!

  6. Thank you :D
    I've been testing it out so I can try to get a review up soon.
    I was thinking that too, I was considering Naked or Naked2 but it's hard to find someone who doesn't have them! So I might do a "My Favorites" type of giveaway prize. (:

  9. I am super curious about how the L'Oreal mascara works out. I have been tempted to pick one up for awhile. This was an amazing deal considering how much you got! I love shopping trips that turn out like this!

    1. I've only tried it once and I wore fake lashes with it so I wasn't really paying attention to it alone. It was! My mom once left CVS and after the sales and coupons, they ended up owing her! Haha.

    1. I'm excited to do the reviews!
      Right now I'm a little worried because I just broke out and I'm not sure what the cause of it is. I'm hoping it wasn't the BB cream but I've tried quite a few new things lately so I'm not sure.

    1. I tried it once and I liked it but I'm not sure if it's the cause of a new breakout or not. My skin has been quite clear lately so I'm pretty upset that it happened. However, I have tried a few other things lately so I can't put the fault on it for sure. I'm going to test it again in a smaller area once I clear this up and see how it goes. (:

  14. You got some fun stuff! I wasn't really happy with the BB cream, though. I prefer my foundation..and a lot of these BB creams are just tinted moisturizers. I'm sad about that...maybe I'm just too old for them. lol

    1. Aww, I wore it with some concealer and I liked how it turned out. It looked a bit more natural than foundation but I see where you're coming from. Even so, I don't own a tinted moisturizer so it's not a complete loss if it doesn't give the benefits it claims. (:

    1. Me too. This one doesn't apply too easily but it really makes eyeshadow stand out more. It makes me want NYX's jumbo eye pencil in Milk even more!
