My shopping haul for 10/3/2013

My shopping haul for 10/3/2013

 I had been drooling over this color for awhile and found it at tj maxx for 4.99 

I am a sucker for the color turquoise so seeing this for $3.99 and the reviews looked good so I grabbed this mascara. The glitter polish was so pretty I couldn't pass it up and it was only $0.99. 

 A friend had wanted to try these and so did I so I got them for 2 for $3. 

I have been seeing people showing swatches of Layla on Instagram and was dying to try it so when I saw this was marked down from 15.50 to 2.99 I had to have it! I had no fast dry in my nail arsenal so I grabbed these from essence for $2.99 and I can't wait to try them. The ulta polish in Gray was kind of a spur of the moment. As I stood there looking at the 0.99 price tag I came to realize as far as I know I don't have a single gray in my collection. So it came home with me!

 Have you tried any of the above products? What did you think about them?

and Purple Velvet review.

Since discovering that we had an Ulta store now in my town I had been wanting to take a trip to the new Mecca of makeup. I was hoping that they would offer more affordable brands then that of Sephora our other Cosmetics store in town. So finally after wanting to go for weeks I had free time to go and was on that side of town. When I pulled up I took this picture. I know you might think thats lame but to me I was on a new and exciting journey.

When I walked in the building I loved the atmosphere, I was hit with a calming wave of warmth but coolness at the same time which was a wonderful reprieve from the cold outside. Everything is white including the shelves so I guess you could imagine me with the look of wonder and awe that those people get that wonder into the progressive commercials before they meet Flo (or at least in the old ones). Its like walking into beauty heaven, I just wanted to look at anything and everything (which I did isle by isle.)
