collective haul CVS, Walgreens, ULTA, $3 philosophy at Big Lots

so sorry i didn't upload this the day i bought the philosophy makeup... had i done so then you probably could've found some at your Big Lots. a few of you are coming up empty... i feel so bad! i really wasn't going to even upload it until next week sometime, but Gina/citrushearted really wanted to see it since she also found some herself earlier that day.

next time i'll try to post my time-sensitive hauls that same day or the next. i'm sorry if i didn't give you that opportunity to get anything... or at least look. on the bright side, at least you saved your money. LOL xoxo Kathleen

collective haul! Sally Beauty Supply, Walgreens, Ulta (Hunger Games polishes)

this is another pre-recorded video from March... i'm going to try to upload the rest of the videos that i recorded in March really soon because they're already over a month old! yikes! this is what happens when i record too many videos at once and then only upload once a day. i just don't want to spam your subscription box!

after this video, i think i've only purchased 2 more nail polishes in the last month... can you believe that? i believe i already showed them, but i might not have... i can't remember what videos have already been recorded and not uploaded... so you'll eventually see them... and the only new nail polishes i'll purchase will be the ones from Hello Kitty at Sephora and possibly any high end dupes from Revlon. Revlon is so good at releasing dupes! i think i have 4 of them already but not all of them...

but yeah, this was my last biggest nail polish haul... no more hauling like this! the last makeup item i purchased was on the 16th and it was one of the L'Oreal Infallible cream eyeshadows (the black sparkly one). i'm dying to get my hands on the eleventhgorgeous Palladio lipgloss but the last time i checked my local Sally Beauty Supply, they didn't have it. i haven't checked ULTA either... but at least i'm being upfront on what i'm looking to buy... and not just buying in bulk. LOL (that's how i'm justifying my future purchases.) let's see how long that goes... xoxo Kathleen

Aveeno, baby wipes, WnW nail polish haul (and lots of rambling)

so it was yet another rainy, gloomy day here... and i didn't feel like making a show & tell video or any other video like that so i just had a tiny haul to share with you.

i used the baby wipes to spot clean my brushes and i must say that they work! it worked well with my eye brushes since they don't have a lot of bristles, but when i tried to clean my face brushes, especially my foundation brush, it was still discolored from the foundation. i'm not too bothered by it (since i didn't really spot clean my brushes before today), but i'm impressed with how clean my eye brushes got with just one baby wipe. i think, for the most part, the eye brushes need to be as clean as possible since they are used very close to the eye and you don't want to get an infection due to pure negligence. so with this realization (better late than never), i will continue spot cleaning my brushes with these baby wipes. sheesh. that was a rather long-winded explanation just about baby wipes. LOL xoxo Kathleen
