Small Collective Sephora Haul!

I recently made a few trips to Sephora when I bought just a couple things each, and instead of making super mini hauls, I thought I would combine it into one almost-normal sized haul. This really isn't too interesting, just mostly a few things I needed, so don't get too excited haha!



1. Korres Lip Butter in Pomegranate ($12, Sephora): I love this and it was totally worth the money. I had heard so much about it, and I wanted to try it! I actually just did a review that you can see here.

2. Boscia Green Tea Blotting Linens ($10, Sephora): Like I said, just a necessity, especially in the summer! These don't contain mineral oil, which can clog your pores, and cause acne!

3. Sephora by OPI Chic Nail Prints in Snowflakes ($5, Sephora): I have been wanting to try these or the Sally Hansen ones. Though, I can't justify spending so much on a disposable nail polish after one use. Sephora's are $15 and Sally Hansen's are $10. So, when I saw these on the sale rack along with two other wintry designs, I thought it would be great to try out during the holiday season this year!

4. Benefit Feelin' Cheeky Minis Set ($15, Sephora): I feel like everyone and their mother has gotten this set since Blair Fowler (juicystar07 on YouTube) included these in her Sephora haul last month. Though, I am proud to say that I actually got this before Blair posted that video! (yes, I just had to put that out there...) From buying this set I know that I will definitely purchase the full size High Beam once I run out, possibly along with Benetint and Posietint.

5. Sephora by OPI Nail Polish in IM Beauty ($5, Sephora): Again, this was on the sale rack. I have always wanted to try a Sephora by OPI product. Though, Sephora by OPI is more expensive than OPI, and I already have a hard enough time justifying spending $8 on a nail polish as it is. So, when I saw this one on sale for $5, I snatched it up. Good thing I was really wanting a yellow nail polish!

So, that is my entire collective Sephora haul. Not too exciting, I know. But if you would like a full review on any of these products, please leave them in the comments-- even if its the blotting linens!

NOTD: OPI's Suzi & The Lifeguard

Hello everyone! Today I am posting my first Nail of the Day! I actually didn't do these nails by myself, I got a manicure/pedicure because my birthday was this week. So, I saw this nail polish on the rack, and it looked very irridescent and beautiful. (Plus, I'm only allowed to wear pale pink nails to school....-___- ) So, I chose this one.

Here are my nails...
I really love this color so much, the next time I am at ULTA I am definitely going to purchase it!!!

May Favorites!

Yes! I have been waiting all month to do this post, and I am so excited I can finally do it! Well, here are some of my favorite products from the month of May…
Aloe Vera: Haha, this one is sort of like a joke, but not really! I just got the worst sunburn over Memorial Day weekend, and I am bugging out because it hurts so bad. Though, aloe vera has become my new best friend for a little while…J


OPI’s Steady as She Rose: This has become my go-to nail polish of the month! I love this color. At first, it looked like a pinky-rose color, but now it looks like a lavender-rose color. Either way, I have been wearing it non-stop this entire month!
Flowers: I have been obsessed with flowers this entire month! I actually went out and made flower hair pins to pin in my hair with a bun or a braid. Actually, yesterday, when I was lying out on the beach in my orange and yellow bikini, I put the orange flower clip in my hair to tie the whole ensemble together haha!


Aveeno Active Naturals Continuous Protection Sunblock for Face SPF 30: Last summer, I put this sunscreen on every single day, and always got sunburned on my cheeks! Now I have worked out a sunblock routine: I apply two coats of this all over my face, and then any sunblock stick I have hanging around, I apply that on my nose and cheeks on top of the sunblock. I haven’t been burned at all! (I wish I could say the same for the rest of my body…)


 
Bath and Body Works Stress Relief Hand Soap in Eucalyptus Spearmint: I bought this in the lotion form for my mother on Mother’s Day, and she loved it just as much as I did! So, when the hand soap was on sale for 50% off, I had to pick it up, and I have been loving it!

Sephora Advanced Lash Booster Mascara in Black: I received this as a gift and I just opened it this month. This mascara is clump-free, incredibly lengthening AND volumizing, and I can’t talk enough about it! I love it! And the price ($12) is more than a bargain for such mascara. Definitely my go to mascara for now on!
Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Shampoo: I have tried this shampoo with the conditioner before, and it wasn’t my thing. Though, I picked it up again, and with a different conditioner, it is absolutely incredible: I am never going to switch again! (Now I just need to find the perfect conditioner…)
Bath and Body Works’ Country Chic Collection: I first smelled this collection while shopping with my best friend, and we both loved it so much, we bought each other it! We got the fragrance spray. However, since I am basically out of shower gel and the Hello, Yellow! sale starts June 10; I think I can wait just a few more days to pick it up in shower gel and lotion form to enjoy it just as much!
So there are my favorites for the month of May, I hope you enjoyed them!
