This haul was done on Saturday March 26th 2011 at both Wal-Mart and Shoppers Drug Mart - we’ll call it a drugstore haul. There is not one item on this list that was over $10.00 CDN.
Anyway, enough with the jibba jabba - here’s the haul!
Spa Resource Pro Series Foundation Kabuki Brush
This line of makeup brushes is new to my local Wal-Mart; I was going to buy a Bronzer brush when I saw this one. I decided to give it a try. The bristles are synthetic, but they are really soft and densely packed. I am looking forward to giving this brush a try. I love kabuki brushes, but usually find the bristles are too stiff/scratchy for my liking.
NYC 16 Hour Smooch Proof Lip Stain (x2)
Rock on Ruby & Endless Spice
I’ve used these stains once each and so far I am impressed. My reviews of lip stains are usually less than stellar, but I think I may have found something I like. A review will go up soon.
NYC Extreme Lip Glider Lip Gloss in Carnegie Melon
I own one of these already, and wanted to try a new shade; this one is more natural and less obvious than the other one that I have got (a bright red). There is a fruity scent to these glosses that is refreshing but not too sweet. There is no flavor at all (yay!).
Wet n Wild Wild Shine Nail Color in Rain Check (Ciel Suprise en Français)
I decided to pick up another one of these polishes after my experience with Night Prowl. This color looked odd to me - I haven’t seen one quite like it before. The polish is a metallic sky blue with a silver base. I think this will be my toe color this week!
Wet n Wild Fast Dry Nail Color in Shade 224C The Wonder Yellows
Strangely enough, I didn’t already have a color like this in my nail polish collection. So, into my shopping basket this bottle went. I actually restrained myself from buying the whole collection - they are in very bright rainbow shades, which is what I was attracted to. I am glad I didn’t, because I already have every other color in the collection except this one!
Wet n Wild Megalast Lip Color (x3)
Rose Bud, Mauve Outta Here, Think Pink
I was inspired by a post by Everyday Makeup Blog and decided to pick up some colors. I’ll be wearing these shades this week and a review will go up next week! I have 904B Rose Bud, 907C Mauve Outta Here and 901B Think Pink.
Maybelline Volum’Express Mascara in Black Brown
I go through a tube of mascara in less than two months...I wear it every day. I’ve been using Cover Girl religiously for awhile now and decided to buy a comparable formulation from another company. This seemed to be the closest match. I have used this once (today) and was not terribly happy...we’ll see if things change.
GOSH Eye Pigment (x2)
Satin & Meringue
The only reason I picked these two little containers up is because they were on sale. Normally, I don’t like working with pigments and loose shadows. I am hoping these will be nice go-to colors for simple days where I just want a smidge of shimmer on my eyes.
Wet n Wild Eye Shadow Trio (x3)
Spoiled Brat, Silent Treatment, I Dream of Greenie
Yay trios! I have four now....love them!
Essie Nail Lacquer (x2)
Buy Me a Cameo & Turquoise and Caicos
Essie was on sale at Shoppers this weekend, so I picked up two bottles. Turquoise and Caicos came out last year, and I don’t know when Buy Me a Cameo came out - I just know it reminds me of a color I use to have and wear a lot in high school (which met its end when I accidentally dumped the whole bottle on a new pair of capris...which were ruined...).
I hope you enjoyed this post! Reviews will be coming soon for most of these products - one will actually go up later this week!
Happy Monday!
