Hi there! So I found some really good deals
recently. Idk if they’re still available
but if they are, I wanted to get the word out!
Even though drugstore prices aren’t crazy expensive, I still love me
some good deals. I mean, why not save
money if you can, right? (Please click on the photos to enlarge them!)
Sonia Kashuk Jewel of an Eye Palette
Original $19.99, Clearance $9.98
Back of the palette for additional info
I kept hearing about this Sonia Kashuk
palette on blogs. They had been saying
that it contained some really great jewel-toned shades that would be
perfect for Fall. Now the original price
was $19.99, which to me is a bit pricey for a drugstore palette. I heard that it got marked down to $9.98 AND
there were Target coupons available for it.
Clearance price + coupon? I felt
like it was practically calling out my name.
Check out coupons.target.com & the new Target Cartwheel app for coupons & extra discounts! I was able to save an additional $1 on the palette bringing my final price to $8.98! :)
Nicole by OPI Gumdrop Polishes
That's What I Mint, I Lilac Gumdrops, & Lemon Lolly
Original $7.99, Clearance $4.96
Then, I couldn’t help but peruse the beauty aisles and lo and behold, I
found nail polishes on clearance too! I LOVE nail polish and I
was extra happy about these particular ones as I’ve never tried the sparkly
textured type of polishes before. I had
been wanting to try Zoya’s ($9) & OPI’s ($9.50) sparkle textures but I
thought they were too pricey.
Nicole by OPI Gumdrop Polish in Lemon Lolly
I tried out the yellow one (my
fave color) and absolutely loved the look of it! Unfortunately, it’s a bit sheer on its own so
I applied 1 coat of WnW’s Wild Shine Nail Polish in French White and 2 coats of
Nicole by OPI’s Lemon Lolly. The texture aspect didn't feel too gritty, which is something I can appreciate. I kept the
polish on my nails for about a week and it held up pretty well! Very minor chipping and tip wear. Removal was pretty easy too, definitely
easier than a traditional glitter polish.
All in all, I can’t wait to try out the other two I picked up!
Wet n Wild Wild Shine Polish in French White
Original $0.99, Sale $0.59
Physicians Formula 2-in-1 Eye Booster Liner + Serum
Deep Brown, Ultra Black, & Black
Original $10.99, Sale $6.59
Last week, CVS was running 40%
off sales on Wet n Wild & Physicians Formula products. First of all, WnW is super cheap but 40% on
top of those prices? I was amazed! I couldn’t find anything else I wanted from
the line except for the French White polish though. But I needed to stock back up on my HG liquid
liner from Physicians Formula so I figured I’d pick up 3 of them (40% off so
why not!). I’ll do a separate post on
these liners w/ swatches & everything in the future.
I know Sephora is not drugstore
but I had to mention these. I’ve been
hearing really good things about these shadows for the past couple of months
and I was super bummed when I couldn’t find them in stores or on
Sephora.com. A couple weeks ago, they
started popping back up on the website & b/c I had a free shipping coupon
code, I figured I’d pick some up!
Sephora Collection Outrageous Prisma Chrome Eye Shadows
Outrageous Metallic Grey, Taupe, Bronze, & Lilac
Original $16, Sale $7
Just thought I'd mention: the Grey is called Taupe Silver and the Bronze is called Golden Taupe on Sephora.com but the packaging says 'Outrageous Metallic Grey' and 'Outrageous Metallic Bronze'.
Overall, they’re REALLY good quality. For $7, you get 0.12 oz (standard eye shadows
are 0.05 oz). The pigmentation is strong
w/ 1-2 swipes, the colors are multi-dimensional & metallic, and they can be
used dry or wet! Definitely consider
picking these up if you see these in store or online!
Whew, that felt like a super long post! My advice is that whenever you shop at the drugstore or at a high-end beauty store, always check the clearance/sale items b/c you never know what awesome products you can find. Also, look out for weekly sales going on at drugstores to save extra money!
