Kohls Couponing Haul Part 2: Sandals, Cologne Set, and Dinnerware for under $7!

Yesterday I was at it again doing my couponing. I swear couponing is like a rush getting so much for oh so little. 

My most recent haul came in at just under $7 yesterday $6.91 to be precise... 

Yes I got EVERYTHING pictured above for $6.91! 

The Jumping Bean Double Pack of Flip Flops were originally $18.99 they were on clearance for $5 and some change I used a $5 Kohls Cash e-mail coupon plus the current 15% off savings pass that expired 8/18/13 my grand total on these came to only 54 CENTS!

All items purchased were purchased in separate transactions and did follow Kohls coupon guidelines.

The following item I got was a pair of Sandals for my self I had one more $5 Kohls Cash e-mail coupon left so I wanted to find something reasonably cheap that I would wear / use I fell in love with these sandals in the coral color which was out in my size so the next best color was black as black goes with everything. These sandals were originally $19.99 on sale for just $7.99 after $5 Kohls Cash e-mail coupon they were $2.99 I stacked a 15% off savings pass with the Kohls Cash coupon and paid just $2.71 after tax for the sandals. 

The 3rd item had to be my favorite score. I got a Juicy Couture Dirty English Gift Set originally $45.00 on clearance for $13.80 I used a $10 Kohls Cash Coupon taking it down to $3.80 stacked a 15% off savings pass and paid just $3.16 with tax for this item. 

My final item or items of my haul were 3 plastic salad plates I loved the design on these they were clearance for just $2.39 each and 2 plastic ombre blue tumblers that were clearance for 79 cents each. I combined all these products together used a $10 Kohls Cash Coupon plus my 15% savings pass and paid just $1.06 for all 6 ITEMS! 

Victoria Secret $10 off ANY purchase of $10 or more

When it comes to getting mail next to getting packages of stuff I ordered I love getting mailers with coupons for free products or a substantial discount. Among my favorite mailers are the Victoria Secret mailers. 

About once a month I get a mailer from Victoria Secret that contains a coupon for a free panty which is totally awesome panties at Victoria Secret are 9.50 and up so to get a free pair is a nice score but what I like better is when they send out these $10 off $10 or more purchase coupons. I'm a bigger girl I can't fit those panties I always joke when it comes to Victoria Secret her secret is she doesn't make panties with enough fabric to cover my ass! I tend to mainly shop at Victoria Secret for bra's and body care. Generally with the free panty coupons comes a $10 off any bra coupon too which is nice but with these $10 off $10 purchase coupons I can use these on anythings even body care so I was glad to get this one pictured above. 

It doesn't begin till the 27th of August but you best believe once it does start I'm going to use it towards some smell goods. I will pry use it in conjunction with a sale such as 5 for $30 body care so I get the most bang for my buck sell pricing plus coupons = best value. 

Bath & Body Works Weekend Freebie

I'm late posting this as I just seen it on Facebook, but Bath & Body Works is doing a weekend FREEBIE yes FREE No Purchase Necessary print the photo out  and go in store or use the code online. I would go in-store so you don't have to pay shipping and you get your choice of either a free Sweet Peony Dream Travel Size Lotion or a free Sexy Dahlia Rush Travel Size Body Lotion. 

I actually got Sweet Peony Daydream free the other day when I used my mailer and have to say I smelled both these scents and couldn't pick so I think I'm going to go back and get Sexy Dahlia Rush. Neither scent are completely unique but they do smell pretty and hey they are FREE! 

Lucky Find: Lavish Lavender Maybelline Color Tattoo Eyeshadow

About a week ago I was out visiting my brother he lives in the middle of NOWHERE. Paris to be specific no not Paris Eiffel tower Paris but Paris Township Ohio. I volunteered to go get his prescriptions filled at the local drugstore since he wasn't feeling well. Rite Aid had about a 15 minute wait so I chose to browse the makeup section and came across a lucky find. Maybelline Color Tattoo Eyeshadow in Lavish Lavender. This LE shade has been SO HARD for me to find I felt like I hit the lottery when I found this and could only find the one I had found I was hoping to find another for a giveaway since Maybelline Cosmetics were buy 1 get 1 half off no luck but this did end up ringing up on sale 6.99 and I saved 3.50 on it so I actually only paid 3.49 for the shadow STEAL! I have yet to try it but I know already I will love it the color is just stunning! 

Ulta Birthday Haul Red Carpet Gel Manicure System + Some Extra's

Every year for my birthday I always get some birthday cash. Cash tends to be the best gift as I can go buy what I want. Between my Mom, Grandma, and My friend in NY I had a decent amount and did want to invest in one thing without blowing all that cash so I did use a portion of it to go to Ulta and get my self to Red Carpet Gel Manicure System. This has intrigued my interest for a few months as I really haven't seen a bad review on it and also the products were much easier to access compared to my Haute Polish system where I would have to ALWAYS order my nail. With the Red Carpet Gel Manicure system I know I can always go to my local Ulta store where they have a vast selection of the polishes. That's the next thing I want to do is stock up on polish their are so many color options and the polishes are reasonably priced at 9.99 which is cheaper than Haute Polish plus Ulta Generally has a $3.50 of $10 coupon that can be used taking the polishes down to $6.50 

So what came in the kit you may be wondering? 

Purify - Use to clean your nails prior and post manicure 

Prep - Sanitize nails 

Structure - Gel Base 

Red Carpet Reddy - Gel Polish 

Brillance - Gel Top Goat 

Revitalize - Cuticle Oil 

Erase - Gel Manicure Remover 

Pro Light - 6 Watt LED Light 

I also picked up some extras...

3 Sided Buffing Block 

Nail File 

I will be going back to Ulta this week to pick up some more polishes as the 3.50 off $10 purchase coupon began Yesterday... 

June 2013 Beauty Favorites & Empties

It seemed that as fast as Summer came June went I really feel this Summer is going to fly by. I sure hope not Summer is one of my favorite seasons my birthday is in the Summer July 4th (Yes I turned the big 25 two days ago!) All the county fairs begin. I feel summer is just about fun. 

The only fun I really haven't had so far has been with my makeup melting on my face on hot days. Not all days have been hot here in Ohio thank goodness but on the hot ones its gone in under an hour its like why bother putting it on? 

So... On with the Favorites! 

June 2013 Beauty Favorites 

Too Faced Boudoir Palette When I first purchased this palette I had a love hate relationship figuring out what colors to combine for eye looks lets face it I'm not a "Makeup Guru" but I did find 3 colors in the palette that I adore for my most worn makeup look and those colors are In The Buff this tends to be my all over color I wear this from lid to brow than I layer Sugar Walls on my lid for my primary lid color and stick Voulez Vous in my crease. 

Dinair Personal Pro Airbrush System This has been in my favorites for months and isn't going anywhere soon I love this machine this makes doing makeup a breeze I do all my primary makeup first so my shadow, liner, mascara and lips than go over my whole face with my airbrush foundation and I'm done. If I'm really patient I even airbrush my shadow. 

Urban Decay Sin Primer Potion when it comes to eyeshadow primer this has to be my hands down favorite one I even like it better than the original because of the added champagne shimmer. I don't really wear any shadow colors this primer wouldn't work well with. 

Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer I swear this is my miracle worker for the hot days I know my foundation will not stick I just use this concealer over my red spots rub it out luckily enough I have good skin so I can get away with calling it my foundation for the day. 

Sephora Native Nude Lip Liner if you seen my YouTube video you know why this is my favorite like I said this is the one lip liner I have that goes with nearly every nude lipstick I have. 

Dior Urban Lipstick since I talked about Sephora Native Nude Lip liner I should go in order and tell you why the Dior Urban Lipstick this month and that's because it works perfectly with my lip liner to just tone down my naturally highly pigmented pink lips and turn them into a gorgeous pinky nude. 

Urban Decay Zero Liner for years and yes I mean years I have been using the MAC Blacktrack Fluidline which I love but my issue is I do wear my liner in my waterline and I don't like the extra step of attempting to set my waterline liner with shadow so I recently switched back to a pencil product and the one Ive been using most is the Urban Decay Zero Liner this liner is the perfect black although I heard perversion is darker I was able to pick Zero up in a 3pc set with 2 other colored liners to try at a recent price at Ulta. 

Lorac 3D Multiplex Mascara I LLOOVVEE this mascara because of the brush end of statement LOL. I tend to love mascara brushes that have that slight curve to them as well as the plastic like bristles those two features really make mascara application clump free for me. 

Timebalm Apricot Skin Renewal Moisturizer I purchased this moisturizer way back when there was a The Balm product hype I found it in my local Marshalls as part of a set and picked it up on a whim I won't lie I have NEVER used skincare products on the regular I really need to but this is my most used moisturizer and its nearly gone!

Victoria Secret Fabulous Trio Sorry I forgot to photograph this with my favorites as well as the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind shame on me but this set I am so obsessed with I got lucky and found it at the most recent Semi Annual sale and I bought out every set of it I could find I even gave away one on my channel not to long ago this scent lives up to its name it truly is Fabulous! The shower gel tends to be the most potent product as it lingers after a shower I like to follow up my shower and use the lotion and body mist I will say I have been reserving this scent for special occasions if I know I'm going somewhere nice or out for the evening this has been my signature scent. 

Last but not least this has to be my ultimate favorite! 

Tigi Bed Head Curlipops Tapered Curling Wand Why do I love this because I suck at using a curling iron with a clip but this I tell you I can handle! I love my hair curled now it looks so much better it adds volume its not flat and boring. I'm even considering going out and buying one of these to give away to you guys! 

On with the empties...

I was recently asked if I would start sharing my empty products of the month it wasn't something I knew for sure if I wanted to share I didn't want to be criticized for how much product I buy and how little I use in a period plus I didn't really want to make a separate video on such but I figured I would oblige to my subscribers and share my empties after all they do fit in nicely with my monthly favorites. 

I'm a lotion freak I tell you after every shower and before bed every night I use lotion I even have my daughter started on this if only I was as faithful to my facial moisturizer as I am to my body lotion I would be good to go. 

I finished 3 bottle of lotion total Philosophy Pure Grace Lotion I picked this up at TJ Maxx last summer because I was interested in seeing how I liked Grace my self a lot of people tend to favor the Philosophy Grace scents but I have to say my self I didn't like Pure Grace and wouldn't see my self trying any of the other "Grace" scents. Another lotion I finished and wasn't to thrilled with was Victoria Secret Tahiti Secrets Lychee and Monoi Oil I picked this scent up about two years ago at a Semi Annual Sale and I had been using it on and off but it was time to just use it and finish it I have so many lotions that I open and start using and than I move onto another I hate being restricted to one scent but yet I have so many open products that I really need to commit to and finish. One lotion I did love and used up is a cult favorite Victoria Secret Lovespell are you seeing a trend with Victoria Secret I just really do adore Victoria Secret body care. 

Two other products I finished were Bath & Body Works products lets face it I won't lie I'm just not loving Bath & Body Works like I use to their scent selection doesn't impress me anymore I feel like they are catering to the younger generation I'm 25 and don't want to smell like a fruit basket that's not to say I don't like fruity scents I do but they have to be blended right I feel that Victoria Secret has nailed it with there fruity floral scents I feel those are more age appropriate for me so I am trying my hardest to phase out the majority of my Bath & Body Works body care I even donated a whole hoard of it to a local nursing home to residents who don't get such luxuries. One shower gel I did finish was Bath & Body Works Rio Rumberry this is fruity there is no other way to put it to me it smells like a sangria which is basically sugared fruit with wine I liked this for summer and its been one of the few Bath & Body Works scents that have caught my attention. The last Bath & Body Works product I finished was a hand soap now I love Bath & Body Works for hand soaps that's because Victoria Secret hasn't dappled into that market yet lol! My finished hand soap with Bath & Body Works Pink Sugarplum Foaming Hand soap I love both the foaming or deep cleansing from Bath & Body Works I keep these soaps in both my bathrooms and kitchen next month you may see 2 of these empty! 

Sephora: Benefit Real Birthday Turn-Ons

It's almost here my birthday that is and with every year comes an exciting Sephora birthday freebie. 

This year I was pretty impressed but I'm beginning to think their isn't much that's "free" that wouldn't impress me. 

This years Sephora Birthday gift is the Benefit Real Birthday Turn-Ons 

This little birthday gift packs quite a punch with a travel size Benefit They're Real Mascara and a mini Benefits Watts Up Highlighter. 

Both products are new to me I've tried benefit products but never this highlighter or mascara. I have to say the product I'm looking forward to using most is the mascara I've heard such rave reviews on the They're Real Mascara that I just can't wait to see what the hype is all about! 

I'm sure I will report back in the future with reviews on both of these :D 

MAC Tropical Taboo Mineralize Skinfinishes

Left to Right 

Rio Adored Lust 

Although MAC Tropical Taboo wasn't due to be released until July 4th it has made an early appearance on the MAC Cosmetic website at www.maccosmetics.com and what a sweet appearance it has been! I was so stoked to get my hands on the new mineralize skinfinishes and even more excited when they quickly arrived THANK YOU THANK YOU FED EX! 

As most of us know their were 2 re-promotes 

Soft & Gentle / Gold Deposit

and...

3 new shades 

Rio / Adored / Lust 

My favorite of the bunch has to be Lust in the pan it looks like a gorgeous rosy-shimmery pink but clearly in the swatches it doesn't come out anything like that I was surprised it came out darker than Rio this will be a light-handed MSF but will be beautiful for a summer time blush. None the less its a gorgeous "peachy" shade that I can't wait to wear! 

Rio and Lust are the 2 more pigmented of the 3 new MSFs and I recommend Adored only if you are fair or are looking to just use this MSF as a highlight.
