Beauty Haul!

Beauty Haul Bonanza!

So the other day I went to CVS Pharmacy because I had just gotten paid and I wanted to browse their hair and skin care and as well as their makeup counter. This is not going to be a review of the items purchased because I'm going to be trying them later on, and some of them are actually presents for other people. So let's get started, shall we?

The first item on the list (drum roll please)... Garnier was having a 3 for $10 sale at CVS so I figured why not get three! So the first product I bought is the Garnier Fructis Pure Clean Fortifying Shampoo. It is 94% biodegradable (totally cool!) and contains no Silicone, no Parabens, and no Dye and also has Acerola Berry Antioxidant in it. It's mainly for Normal Hair and it claims to give stronger, healthier hair with no weigh down. I have actually used this product before and when I did use it I LOVED it because it left my hair super soft (and natural because it didn't have chemicals in it!) and it smelled great! It actually smells kinda citrusy which is great for a pick me up in the mornings.

The second product I bought is the Garnier Fructis Fall Fight Fortifying Shampoo with energizing Caffeine, fortifying biotin and fruit vitamins. It's made for falling or breaking hair and it stimulates your hair when you massage it into the scalp, preventing breakage for fuller looking hair. It smells like pineapples and lemons... but in general it smells deliciously fruity :)

The third product was the Garnier Fructis Daily Care 2in1 Fortifying Shampoo and Conditioner. It has Grapefruit Antioxidants and Natural Proteins. It's for normal hair and it strengthens and energizes for a healthy shine. And it actually does smell like grapefruit! I've known all the Garnier Fructis products to not smell disgustingly sweet and cloying, but they rather have a nice fruit scent that is refreshing :)

I then looked at the other shampoos/conditioner and saw one that was eighty-two cents (I KNOW RIGHT?) and was like "Woah! I need to see this". It's Alberto's VO5 Tea Therapy revitalizing shampoo in blackberry sage tea. It says it's formulated to be revitalizing and give hair volume and bounce and energizes limp locks and restores hair's natural beauty. So I wanted to try this shampoo out to compare it to other shampoos (such as Garnier Fructis) and see if it's the same or even better in performance.

The next product I got is actually a present for my dad. My dad LOVES Old Spice and I got him some of their body wash. It's part of the fresh collection and is called Denali and OH.MY.GOSH. It smells AMAZING. It's description is "smells like wilderness, open air, and freedom" which I found kinda funny, but I really can not express to you how good it smells....

So next I got two Revlon products. The first one I got was the Revlon PhotoReady Primer + Shadow in the color/number 505 Impressionist. It comes with five colors: a primer, one for the lid, one for the crease, one for the brow bone, and then a general highlighter to add shimmer. It also comes with two dual tip applicators. It's very pigmented, such that I barely put my finger on the product and I had already picked up a good amount of it. It looks pretty cool, and there's a lot of shimmer involved so I'm pretty excited to try it out ;)

The other Revlon product that I got was the Revlon Lash Potion by Grow Luscious in 001 Blackest Black. It's a waterproof mascara that gives you volume and length. It says, "the formula with strengthening proteins, amino acids, and essential vitamins, revitalizes lashes. The illusionist wand drenches lashes for dramatic volume and combs through lashes for clump-free length". The brush isn't a curved one (which I actually like) and it's pretty big so I can't wait to try it out. The packaging is very eye catching as well because it's purple, green and pink and looks really cool ;)

I also got some lip balms. The first one is a present that I bought for my best friend because she loves citrusy scents and she loves EOS - evolution of smooth - lip balms so I got her the one in the flavor tangerine. It says it's 95% natural with vitamins, zinc and shea butter. I have the one in sweet mint and I love it. I especially love playing with the packaging it comes in. But when it comes down to it, it's just a chapstick and it honestly doesn't really do any better of a job than any other chapstick. I also bought another one and this one was the Blistex simple and sensitive hypo-allergenic and non-irritating formula chapstick. It says it hydrates with Cocoa Butter, Jojoba, and Sunflower Seed Oil, contains just six ingredients and has no flavor, no fragrance, and no color.

So the last two products I bought were Maybelline New York 24hr Color Tattoo by Eyestudio eyeshadow. I bought the one in 34 Tough as Taupe and the one in 70 Barely Branded. Both are ridiculously pigmented and have a creamy consistency which I find fascinating since I've never used a creamy eyeshadow before. I can't wait to see how it wears, although this 24hr claim seems little bit far fetched for me.... ;)

Well, there you have it! My beauty haul! I didn't include information on the SlimQuick product because I'm still debating on whether or not to use it, so I'll keep you guys posted on that!:) I hope you enjoyed this post, and there are more to come most definitely! Next I'll be giving a review on some products that I've been trying out so far this month, and how much I like or dislike them :) Have a wonderful weekend and stay safe! God Bless!
