Fall 2015 Walmart Beauty Box

Posted in beauty, haul, review by bloomingbeautybites

Happy Thursday loves!
Hope you’re all having a great week. It’s almost Friday!

Of course we’ve all heard about those subscription boxes and how great they are, but sometimes you just don’t want to pay $10-$15 per month. Walmart, however, has a beauty subscription that comes out every season and only costs $5 and usually includes a few full size products and lots of coupons! You’re basically just paying for shipping! This is my second time getting it, and you know what…I love it! You’ll see why in a minute. 🙂

Travel Sizes:

Dove Advanced Care beauty finish 48h deodorant

Loreal Sublime Bronze Tinted Self-Tanning Lotion

Aussie Mega Hairspray 24Hr Flexible hold

Act Advanced Care Plaque Guard Mouthwash

Full Sizes:

Schick Hydro Silk Disposable Razor

Revlon Ultra HD Lipstick in 875 HD Gladiolus

Samples:

Crest 3D White Brilliance Daily Cleansing and Whitening System

Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer with 2 different scents

Nivea Extended Moisture Body Lotion

Biore Self Heating One Minute Mask

I personally love this box!! I’m excited to try the Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer. I’ve heard its similar to the Nivea In Shower Body Lotion and of course the Biore mask. It really works wonders on the skin!!

Have any of you tried this box? What do you think about it? 🙂

DIY Scarf Organizer

Posted in Accessories, DIY, Pinterest by bloomingbeautybites

Hey loves!

I thought of changing up my recent posts since I’ve been mostly doing hauls. I was doing some spring cleaning and didn’t like how my scarves were just dangling in the closet, while they could fall and I would misplace them. That’s never a good thing. So I went on Pinterest and found a clever and easy way of making a scarf organizer.

Things You Need:

*A hanger

*shower curtain rings. I got mine from Dollar Tree.

*and of course the scarves! lol

How-To:

1. Open up the shower curtain rings and place scarf in them. You could either fold it twice to make it shorter, or not fold it.

2. After you place the scarves in the rings, you put the rings into the bottom part of the hanger.

Voila! This is the end-product!

In case anyone would like to know where I got these scarves from:

*striped infinity scarf: mark. (used to be a sister store to Avon before they merged together)

*knitted pattern infinity scarf: Walmart

*One sided plaid/other side flowers infinity scarf: H&M

*Burberry knockoff: Bargain store ( something like a .99c store)

* Cream scarf with dots: Target

What did you think?! It’s a first DIY post and I hope to do more like this soon. 🙂

PS. I updated my watermark finally and I’m loving it. What’s your opinion?!

Drugstore Beauty Haul

Posted in beauty, drugstore buys, haul, shopping, Target, Walmart by bloomingbeautybites

Hello Loves! I hope you all are doing great this week! 🙂 I always walk in drugstores just planning to look at the new products but I always get sucked in looking at the sales and clearance areas. Tsk Tsk for me. :p Hi. I’m Chrissy and I’m a beauty junkie! I ended up buying things from Target, Walmart, CVS, and Rite Aid. Walmart I bought the Trim Manicure Kit that included a nail clipper, a toenail clipper, 2 cuticle sticks, a salon board and tweezers. It’s practical and I needed to restock on the salon board and cuticle sticks. For some reason, I’m always losing my nail clippers and the time that I need to clip them, they’re gone! This only costed $0.97 and that’s the original price! I’ve never really took care of my nails but I figured I would start so I bought the Sally Hansen Cuticle Massage Cream with apricot oil for less than $5. It intensively moisturizes and conditions which is a plus since at work I’m always using my hands. I was looking at my Ibotta app (which is a rebate app for purchasing different things and getting cashback) and found that they’ll pay you back $1 for buying the Olay Fresh Effects Va-Va-Vivid Cleaning System. These usually run about $10-15 a piece but I was lucky enough to find a few on clearance for only $5! It comes with the Shine, Shine Go Away Cleanser along with a cleansing brush. CVS Just recently, CVS started selling NYX products finally! Now I can earn that $5 ExtraCare Buck for beauty purchases including NYX. I got the NYX Wonder Pencil in the shade Light. It can be used as a concealer, eye brightener, and a reverse lip liner. I used it as an eyeliner for the waterline and my, it works wonders! Literally as its name! I’ve heard marvelous things about the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 20 Sand Sable. I’d advise to go to that magic red machine that gives you coupons when you scan your card because you’ll be surprised sometimes. When I scanned my card, I had one coupon that was $3 off any Maybelline cosmetic and another coupon that was $5 off a Physicians Formula purchase. I can’t complain on those! Target The only thing I got was the NYC Long Wearing Nail Enamel in 141 Red Velvet Rope.
