Summer Book Haul - 2025

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend?

I've recently put myself on a book buying ban until I read more of my physical books. I can quickly get through kindle and audio books, but I've been neglecting my physical copies. So my book hauls may be small for a while (I'm still accepting gifts of books lol). I started my buying ban after I bought a bunch of books though, so here are the books I've picked up over the last few months. Haha!

God of Fury by Rina Kent

 God of War by Rina Kent

 

The Assassin's Blade by Sarah J. Maas

 

My Funny Demon Valentine by Aurora Ascher

 

The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo

 

The Ragpicker King by Cassandra Clare

 

Heaven Breaker by Sara Wolf

 

Five Broken Blades by Mai Corland

 

Dracula by Bram Stoker

 

I know I have two other editions of this book, but this edition is soooo nice! The cover is soft and flexible like a paperback, but a bit thicker like a hardback. Plus, it's beautiful!

 

 

That's all the books I've purchased/received this time! Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have an amazing week!

 

 

New Beauty Haul!

 Hello, everybody! How was your weekend? Can you believe it's already the end of July?!

I really need to cut back on my beauty purchases. I have so much stuff that I need to use up before I buy any more products. I think it's time to go through all of my products and create a "use it up" bin. Anyway, here's all the new products I've received/bought recently. T.T To be fair, most of these were free. So there's my excuse this time.

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Wash

This was free from Influenster. I like that it's lightly scented since I use a lot of other scented products. This lathers up nicely and my skin feels clean after I use it. 

Sun Bum Sunscreen SPF 30 Lip Balm in Kiwi

 

I'm really trying to take better care of my lips. I never thought to use SPF on them until just a couple years ago. This is fine. 

Lip Smacker Lip Balm in Pink Lemonade

 

This was given to me. It's so nostalgic! Lip Smacker was my favorite brand of lip balm when I was in school. 

 

Summer Friday Self-Care Celebration Birthday Gift

 

My birthday was in June, and this was one of the options for Sephora's free birthday gift. 

 

Laura Mercier Lunar New Year Translucent Loose Setting Powder

 

Do I need this? No. Did I buy it anyway because it's a red lunar new year edition and it was on sale? Absolutely yes. 

 

Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint

 

This was also free from Influenster for review. I really like this skin tint! It's a perfect shade match and it looks so nice on my skin. 

 

Lip Smacker x Hello Kitty 10 Piece Lip Balm Party Pack

 

I picked this up from Ulta. I know, I know. I don't need anymore lip balms, but I can't resist when it comes to Hello Kitty products. 

 

Lip Smacker x Hello Kitty Peach Gummy

 

This was also from Ulta. It's very bulky, but it's cute. 

 

Olaplex No. 3 & No. 7 Duo Kit Birthday Gift

 

This was the birthday gift from Ulta this year. 

 

It's A 10 Miracle Leave In Product

 

I love this leave in treatment. It smells nice too. 

 

Philosophy Hope in a Jar

 

This was another free product to review from Influenster. 

 

Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion

 

I really like this, as you know. I repurchase it constantly. 

 

Kitsch x Hello Kitty King Size Satin Pillowcases

 

I had $50 worth of reward points to use at Ulta, so I ordered these two pillowcases (both on sale - one was half off for $13 and the other was only $6.50) and the serum under these. 

 

Peach & Lily Super Oasis Concentrated Serum

 

I've never tried anything from this brand before, but I've heard great things about it. I'm excited to see how it works for me. 

 

 

Armani Beauty Skin Tint in L1

 

This was another free gift for review from Influenster. I like this skin tint, but the shade is a tiny bit too dark for me. That's on me though. It can be difficult choosing a shade online. I thought I picked the one closest to my skin tone. 

 

 

That's all for now! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful week!
