Beauty Purchases 7/1/21

Katcat1 — Thu, 01 Jul 2021 02:31:16 GMT

Happy July, Beauties! It has been extremely humid where I live and it's suppose to return to normal starting on Thursday (I hope so). I hope you all have been busy beauty shopping. There is always something we need. I purchased the following:

----EO Products Shower Gel in French Lavender

(scented with essential oil)

----Desert Essence Hydrating Sugar Body Scrub

----Giovanni 50/50 Hydrating/Clarifying Shampoo

Share your purchases and have an awesome 4th of July. I hope we will have fireworks this year. Stay safe always.

Good morning!

Just yesterday I purchased:

Big Sexy Hair Root Amp Spray Mousse -- I haven't used it yet. I'm still trying to find a replacement for the old Suave Root Boost that was discontinued a couple years ago.

Neutrogena Rapid Repair -- I've been using the RR cream in the jar and love it. Yesterday I purchased the RR night moisturizer in the pump bottle for a change... and it was $3 cheaper. Teehee

@Katcat1 Happy 4th to all our Beauties!!!

I caved and purchased several Trish items during her sale: The leopard makeup bag w/ a few items inside, the Eye Base Essentials, a Gel liner Pencil and the pink pencil to use in the corners of eyes and inside my lower waterline.

I also purchased a few drugstore items mentioned on that thread.

I'm trying to hold out for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale...sometimes there are good sets of skincare products/makeup.

BTW Beauties, July 20th is the Nordstrom Beauty Bash Day during the sale.

Last week I ordered a lot of items but didn't count them as I want to wait and make sure I get them first.

So, I purchased from Carmindy her eyeshadow trio, blush, and bronzer.

From Laura Geller I ordered a taupe kajal liner, two lipsticks - Honey Bun and Dolce, her large size French Kiss/French Vanilla highlighter, and a new foundation she has - Double Take Baked Versatile Powder Foundation.

Two black eyeliners - one from Revlon and one from L'Oreal.

So far so good, like it all.

Edited to add: The Laura Geller eyebrow pencil in Taupe arrived today. In the past, Taupe has just not worked for me but this was on sale so decided to try it. Glad I did, it looks fine. Had been using IT Cosmetics super skinny gray pencil and liked it so will use both.

I purchased Madison Reed Haircolor, as well as

PUR Mineral Foundation and Primer. have been wanting to try for a long time now. I also purchased some books(not beauty related)...I think thats it for me for now anyway.....Hubby bought me a new perfume if that counts, its called Chloe Nomade-it smells really good, but not sure about the staying power-he picked it out himself, if I would have been with him I would have chosen Flowerbomb-really want that perfume!But happy that he thought of me while in Ulta getting his Men's Clinique skincare! Have a great weekend ladies!

@CANDLEQUEEN That was really considerate and sweet of your husband to buy perfume for you. You know how many husbands would do that? Not many. Enjoy your new fragrance.

@tototwo I would like to know how the Big Sexy hair root mousse works. Do you like it? Did it really perform and give results?

@Katcat1 They usually have offers and kits not available at the counters during the sale. If you can get an "in" with a counter mua (basically just ask and give your name as a contact), they can "put aside" products for you ahead of the 20th. If you spend a set amount of money, you recieve a Nord. tote w/ a lot of samples.

I was getting tired of plucking my brows and other hairs on my face that pop out occasionally like on my upper lip and close to my nostrils. So instead of going to a laser specialist, which costs hundreds of dollars after you're done, I decided to get this at-home laser device made by Epilady. It's a pen with a laser tip which is used to zap individual hairs in a precise manner. I've been reaching for this laser pen instead of my tweezers and already I can tell it's working! It's been about 3 weeks. This thing is not cheap though but compared to the price of one professional laser treatment it's a bargain. I'm nuts about this laser pen...LOL!

Epilady® Absolute Laser Hair Remover (permanent hair remover)

$190

I bought the Hipdot Flowerburst Palette:

I also ordered some Bath & Body Works stuff. (Thanks, lady who posted about the sale!! 😄) And I placed a Colourpop order. Nothing really noteworthy in those orders except maybe the lip gloss I got called "Vanda." Website says it's an orange-y red shade, but it looks coral to me in the swatches. I think it will look coral with a light application...hopefully...because I don't like orange-y reds. I guess I can always mix some peach gloss with it if I need to.

@monicakm I bought it from Hipdot's website. Hope it is as pretty in person.
