Head Down to CVS

I love make-up. I am not in a full face of make-up everyday but I love to try different things. With the exception of my MAC Studio Fix powder I am not really brand loyal. I wear everything from drugstore to speciality brands and I LOVE getting things on sale. CVS is a great place to get make-up on sale and if you are adventurous like me you can try new brands, colors etc. at fraction of the cost when taking advantage of their BOGO specials. On any given week you can find brands BOGO specials on different brands, By One Get One 50% of BOGO FREE! But what really makes my heart race with excitement is when I see that CVS is trying to clear space or get rid of a discontinued product and they are marked with that beautiful little 75% sticker! The downside of that is if it is a product that you love or fall in love with, most likely it is marked at 75% off because the item is being discontinued or the store is making room for new shades of the season.


My haul from yesterday:

3 Loreal HIP shocking shadow pigments (in Unashamed, Visionary and Valiant) Regular Price: $12.99

I really like the HIP shadow pigments. I have purchased them in the past. The colors are so pretty and have great staying power. They are loose pigments and each one comes with it's own little brush. Unfortunately this CVS only had these 3 in stock, I would have purchased more.

1 Black Radiance bronzing pallet Regular Price $4.99

This was 50% off. I have wanted to try bronzer so I thought I would grab something inexpensive and experiment.

1 Revlon 3d Extreme Mascara Regular Price $10.79

I am pretty loyal to the classic Maybelline Greatlash but have been trying a few other brands that promise magnifying and thickening so I thought I would give this a try.

1 Revlon shadow in Gold Sparkle Regular Price $4.99

None of the other colors in this line really grabbed me even though they were going for $1.25. I brought this gold because it has huge flecks of sparkle in it and I thought it would be nice to have one hand for a festive occasion.

Total (including 8% sales tax): $17.05

Total Savings $43.35
