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!

Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale Haul

 Hello, everyone! How was your weekend?

 Here's everything I picked up during the sale.

Sweet Carrot Cake Cleansing Gel Hand Soap

This was a free reward. I purchased the foaming soap in this scent months ago and I really liked it, so when I saw this was still available I knew I wanted to get it. Unfortunately, this leaked during shipping so I lost a little bit of it. I'd say like 10% of product leaked out. Thankfully an associate online helped me get a replacement. It's a different scent since this one is now out of stock, but that's okay. 

Bali Mango Ultimate Hydration Body Cream

I'm slowly buying products throughout the year to give away at Christmas, and this will be going into that pile. It was only $3 and some change, so definitely a steal of a deal. 


B&BW x Disney Princess Cinderella Fine Fragrance Mist

This is also going into the gift pile. This was also $3 something, which is amazing!  

Mahogany Teakwood Body Spray

I bought this years ago for my husband and he really liked it. It was on sale for only $4, so of course I got it for him. 


Aromatherapy Shower Steamers in Lavender + Vanilla

I've been wanting to try out some shower steamers, and this was under $4. I'm super excited to find out if these help me feel relaxed. 


Aromatherapy Body Butter in Lavender + Vanilla

I had a promo offer for a free item for my birthday last month, and I used it on this. 


Lavender Lemonade Cleansing Gel Hand Soap
 
 
 This is the free replacement I received for my Sweet Carrot Cake Soap. 

That's everything I ordered this time. What did you pick up during the sale?

Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have a great week!
