New Products September 2013 #3 Little Target Haul

My birthday money was burning a hole in my pocket and since my boyfriend was dying to get the new grand theft auto game I headed to target for the midnight release. Was this a good idea? Hello no. One  no night time snuggles he pulled an all nighter to play and two at 12 am it is really hard for me to say no to anything. To be fair though nearly everything was on sale. Only downside the cashier charged me twice for one if the items! It was a $3.00 item but whatever!

The first item I got was a 75g tub of Lucas Papaw Ointment because it was half price at $11.50. I love this product, I'm almost finished mine and I have no idea where mine is currently. So snatching it up at such a low price makes sense. Post on this product here. 

Next came the Australis Fresh & Flawless Pressed Powder in Natural. This is a cult product I'm Australia and one I was not sure whether I would repurchase. However it was on sale for $4.00 which is extremely hard to say no too! I think I will keep it hidden away until summer as it is slightly too dark for my skin and can look a little orange. Although I have bought this product at least 3 times in the past 12 months so I do actually love it, just not so much for my pale winter skin! 

Essence Nail Art Express Dry Drops this is a product I have been dying to try for a while now I have bought it for other people and heard only good things about it. For only $3.50 I am not sure what took me so long to buy it! I am looking forward to seeing if this does really help nail polish drying time as it will be an excuse to do my nails more often. 

Soon after was the Essence Lash Mania ultra volume mascara. This one at the bargain price of $1.00. Okay I am slightly worried as to why it was so cheap but I am sure this will be a decent everyday mascara for work or just times when I am wearing glasses and don't need lots of length. 

Another Essence Product the Home Sweet Home collection eyeshadow in 01 h

Happy Couching. This is a nice deep brown colour which I thought would be a nice crease colour not too shimmery and not too matte. I just think Essence is such great value for the amazing quality. I paid $3.50 and I am pretty happy with that. 

Surprise Essence again another bargain product for only $3.00 the eyeshadow Quattro in 07 Over The Taupe. Which is a really pretty and simple neutral quad which would be nice for when I travel later in the year. It will also just be nice in general as I am fan of the neutral, as I like a bold lip. 

The final Essence product is from the Sun Club Collection the nail polish in 01 BBC Pink Heat. Which came to the amazing price of $1. It is a stunning bold colour which will look amazing this spring and summer. Let's be real I will wear it in the winter too. 

What did you spend your birthday money on this year? 

Get any bargains?

September Bellabox 2013

I just got my September Bellabox! Yay! So I wanted to share it with you all. 

This month's box was partnered with Cleo and was focused around spring party essentials. Basically sping racing, which fingers crossed that I will be going this year! 

The first item is the October issue of Cleo. I was so shocked and happy to get this. I was so glad that I didn't buy this the day before like I planned. Not much to say about this item but I will be reading all of it. 

Montagne jeunesse blemish mud masque:

This was one of their essential items it is retailed for $3.99. I loved face masks, while writing this posts I currently haven't a face on my mask. This is a blemish one which isn't what I am looking for at the moment. However I will try it or maybe I will make my housemate use it (she will be featuring in a blog series soon!). Overall I am happy getting his product. 

Elegant touch envy wraps:

This is the colour item and it is retailed as $8.99. I am excited about this item as I still haven't used this style of nails, even though I have a few waiting for me. I am not a fan of the actual colours however I think it will be amazing to use on a younger cousin. So overall I am happy getting this. 

Schick hydro silk razor:

This is the award winner and is retailed for $9.99. I have never used this brand but I am looking forward to use this. I currently use Venus one so once that is finished I will use this one, or I will wait until I move later in the year. It's a razor not too much to say about it other then I will be using it. Overall I am very impressed with getting this item as it is one that won't be lost in my samples draw. 

Manicare glam Kelly lashes:

This is a trick item and retails for 11.95. I am pretty bad with false lashes but I have tried this brand before. I really do like this brand and trust that they will be a great quality. I will use these soon so that is exacting. Overall I am really happy with this item as this is a beauty product I don't have much of so it can't get lost in my collection. 

Footcare gel ball of foot cushions: 

This is an essential item and is priced at $8.99 for 2 pairs. This is a create product to receive as I do love to wear heels and this will make them have a chance to feel better. Overall I am really happy with this item as I was looking to buy this the other week, I will use it. 

Garnier amber solaire natural bronzer spray:

This is a cult item along with the Priceline pick and retails for 14.95. I am new to tanning myself, getting it done for myself is just so much easier. I am excited to try this as it in the shade light and all of ,one are in deep bronze cheer. Over all I am happy to have this item and plan to try this out to perfect tanning. 

ASAP pure mineral eye pencil:

This is a colour items and retails for $20.00. This is a brown eyeliner and I excited to have this as I don't currently have a brown eyeliner. This is a item that will look good as a subtle liner for every day wear. Overall I am happy with this product and thing it will be useful. 

I am really happy with the whole box. I think it was amazing value. So excited to use all of and tell you my thoughts!
