Small Haul 7/20/2011 (sephora)

Hey all!  Just wanting to share a quick haul that I got the other day.  This all started with the Makeup Forever mini set that Sephora was giving to VIB's...if you want to learn about becoming a beauty insider or VIB, go here.

Sephora Haul!

I went in to get my staple mascara, MUFE Smokey Lash.  I also added in the Dior Addict Lip Glow :)!  The mini VIB kit contained:

• mini smokey lash mascara
• mini lab shine
• mini hd powder
• mini aqua liner

All the minis are super cute and very practical.  I was hoping the bad would have been a bit bigger, but I love it all the same.  

I also had some points that I was thinking about cashing in...this is what I picked for my 500 point perk...

Pacifica Indian Coconut Nectar Trio including...

• body butter
• perfume
• body wash

What you all been hauling?  :)

Bath and Body Works haul - 5/3/2011

So, I was home in Indiana this weekend for 4th of July festivities.  This meant, once again, that I would make my way down to the outlets in Michigan City.  As I am on a low-buy, my awesome BF was kind enough to help me make some purchases. 

I stopped at Bath and Body Works as they were having  a great sale on the Summer Vanilla's collection, as well as hand soaps (their hand soap is my ultimate fav!)

From the Summer Vanilla collection, I picked up a Lemon Vanilla body butter, body wash, and body spray!  This smells like a lemon filled bakery.  Almost like an iced loft house cookie :).  I also purchased one Kitchen Lemon Anti-Bac hand soap, and two watermelon scented summer edition soaps.

BB&W Haul :)

I love this store, but also hate the way I fall in love with scents that are either limited edition, or never make it back for another appearance!  This, along with a body spray and body wash for my boyfriend was purchased for about $20.00 USD at the outlets.  Can't beat that!

Scents of Summer 2011

I enjoy the way a scent can instantly transport you somewhere, evoke a memory, make you feel different.  This here is a quick compilation of scents that I have collected, that invoke that feeling of summer...sun, warmth, and bronze skin.

 

From left:

1. Ed Hardy Ed Hardy Woman

     2.  Escada Marine Groove

     3.  Escada Taj Sunset

     4.  Eau de Vie Pina Colada  (no longer found at Sephora)

     5.  Lolita Lempicka Forbidden Flower

All of these scents are very much in the sweet, gourmand, citrus family.  I sometimes switch to a heavier scent such as Gucci Rush during the evening or night, but these are usually my go to's.  What are your favorite summer scents?
