ULTA Haul!

So, on Friday, I actually got to Ulta. Thank goodness I ordered my Carrie Underwood polishes online, as my Ulta did not have them in stock. I got 4 things.



The first 3 things were a little dry shampoo (free), conditioner, and 24 eyeshadow applicators.



 Then, saving the best for last,

Gwen Stefani's signature shade!



Inside, it has all this nail art stuff I probably won't use.

A "look book", the studs and such, and nail glue.

So that was my Ulta haul! Thanks for reading!

Recent Nail Mail- Zoya, Llarowe, and ULTA

I have a LOT of gift cards burning holes in my pockets and Zoya had their "free" polish promo.

I'll start with Zoya.

Left to Right: Blaze, Elisa and Purity


2 coats each of Blaze, Elisa and Purity


Next, I'll show what I got from Llarowe, along with a brief review.

Glitter A Peel and Glitter Food from Nail Pattern Boldness

This is a manicure with Essie Licorice and Glam Polish Candyland where I used both products. Glitter Food took away my usual problem with star glitter! Normally, at least one point sticks up.

All 10 nails came off in one piece with Glitter A Peel!



Finally, I ordered some polishes from ULTA.

Nicole by OPI: Carnival Cotton Candy, Carrie'd Away, and Lips Are Dripping Honey

3 coats each of Carnival Cotton Candy,  Carrie'd Away and Lips are Dripping Honey


And of course, I got samples!

I Won 5 Spellbound Nails Polishes!

So I won one of those massive, epic, multi blogger and indie giveaways. I had not heard of Spellbound Nails before, and I was excited to get my prize!

All 5 polishes together!



The first polish I received was Watermelon Seeds.


The second polish I received was Upelkuchen.
The third polish I received was Carnival Lights.

Swatches of Watermelon Seeds, Upelkuchen, and Carnival Lights (2 coats each)

The fourth polish I received was Pishsalver.

The fifth and final polish I received was All of Time and Space.
Since a lot of the glitter is in the back, here is the pretty glitter!




               
Swatches of Pishsalver and All of Time and Space (2 coats each, alone)


So those are my 5 new pretties! I am most looking forward to trying Upelkuchen out of these 5.

Cheeks Tinted Red from her Victorian Romance Collection looks like something I will pick up VERY soon :)

You can find Spellbound Nails on Etsy and Storenvy. Spellbound Nails also has a Facebook page.

Thanks for reading!

Freebies in the Mail #6

Since I haven't posted in 2014, HAPPY NEW YEAR! It's time to quickly show off some freebies. One giveaway win will be getting its own post.

The first freebies are 4 Cafe Escapes K cups! The cups were Chai Latte, Cafe Caramel, Cafe Vanilla and Cafe Mocha. It also has a coupon for $2 off a box of Cafe Escapes K cups.



                                             The second freebie I got was a sample from PONDS.



                                        The third freebies I got were a Glade trash bag and Clorox wipes.


                                                 The fourth sample I got was a Suave lotion.
                                   
                                                  I got a free polish code from Julep and used it to get Julep Betty.

                                                              Bzz Agent sent me a razor, a coupon for free shaving cream,
                                                              and coupons for more razors.

                                                           


                                                             And finally, Bath and Body Works posted a freebie coupon for    
                                                             a preview lotion over the weekend.

                                                            That's it for now! Sorry this post looks SO awkward.

Freebies... Over the Past, I Don't Know, Month and a Half? OOPS!

So I actually have not gotten that many freebies, unless you count giveaway prizes (which in my world, will be a different post).

Cereal, which I don't eat. But my sister loves Greek yogurt, so I snagged the sample. She thought it tasted, "Okay". 

The Mocha Latte sample... I don't like coffee, my sister does. She got a look on her face and poured this down the sink. It was hilarious.

Face wash. Haven't tried it yet.

Tea. I figured my sister would drink it, she likes it, I hate it. Haven't tried these samples yet.

"K Cup" style cups of coffee. Grabbed the samples just to see what we would get. These all went to my great grandparents who have a Keurig as well.

Lipton Tea K Cups. Figured we could try them. My sister had already gotten a box of the sweet tea, so we kept that, but my grandparents got the black tea.

Caramel Macchiato K Cup sample. My sister did not enjoy this either. I was amused again.

Rimmel mascara. Thank goodness, because I needed new mascara. I actually liked this sample.

To wrap it up, we have 2 Starbucks K Cup samples. One is Vanilla and the other is Caramel. My sister has yet to try these.

Thanks for reading,

Jennifer




Sample Review #3

I'm back with more sample reviews :)

First, I have the LOVELY (hahaha) Maybelline FitMe Shine Free Foundation. As I stated in my initial post, 3 different shades are included. I peeled back my sample, and this was it...


When I showed someone else, they agreed with me. This is NOT enough to try on my face. I liked how it applied, but it would not be the same if I bought the product. The product is a stick.

The second product I will briefly review is Centrum Flavor Burst Vitamins.
I was afraid because they are grape flavored. It was not completely intolerable tasting, but it was a strong taste. They were easy to chew as well.


So those 2 will be it for this post! Thanks for reading!
