Four Great Sites I Love to Shop from!!

Most likely everyone has heard about these sites, but I just want to give them a big THANK YOU! I am such an avid online shopper and want to applaud them for feeding into my addiction.

               CHECK THEM OUT :)


1. Nonpareil Boutique

• This is an amazing site to buy makeup from! I loooooveeeee NYX cosmetics, so this is usually my go-to site. Along with NYX they have, Milani, the balm, E.L.F, Red Cherry Lashes, and other great brands! The site usually has 20% off sales every so often.
• (20% off now until December 30th!).

• Shipping comes pretty quickly and I cannot love this site anymore than I already do!!

 

2. The Beauty Sampler

• I love MAC pigments, they're gorgeous, but what a waste to spend $20 per pigment. The Beauty Sampler has tons and tons of MAC pigments for only $2.49. On the site now they are offering a selection of 128 samples, like really? That's a fantastic selection!! The tend to always have a sale for 15% off. I am always getting emails from them, such a great deal!

• Not only do they sell pigments, but the have glitter samples, solar bit samples and even mixing agent samples. The samples are 1/4 teaspoons. Great site, you need to check it out!

3. Hautelook

• There are lots of sites like Hautelook who offer discounted items, but I think this site is the best of the best. If you do not know about this site, it offers 50-75% off designer labels. I feel that their prices for certain brands are extremely good. Each Brand is offered for about 2-3 days. Not only have they sold designer brands, but they have also sold brands like NYX, Stila, and Urban Decay. They sell everything from cosmetics to fun get-a-ways. All you have to do is sign up and shop! 

 

4.Restaurant.com 

• If there is one thing I do best, it is definitely eating! My friends and I love to try out new and different restaurants. Restaurant.com is great because, they offer gift certificates to restaurants for 80% off, yes, I SAID 80!!! Now there are some restrictions, as with most things. You cannot use more than one gift certificate at a restaurant and most will not let you buy off the specials meal and you have to spend a minimum of $35 per restaurant and they put in gratuity of 18%.

• They offer different pricing gift certificateS that range from  $10- $100, but you can get a $25 gift certificate for $10 and with a coupon code (that they give) you can get it for $2! It's a great way to try a place you would not normally go to. It's also a great gift to buy for friends/family.

I hope you check out the sites! Happy shopping everyone!!

A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS!

So for my first blog entry, I thought I would share a few of my favorite items!!

1. Big Sexy Hair Root Pump Mousse.

I have long hair, but it is not too thick on the top. I can't get over how amazing this product is for me. You can actually feel the volume in your hair. I put it on before I blow dry my hair. After I finish blow-drying and flat-ironing, I give my hair a little tease and it's just amazing how voluminous my hair gets. 

2. Neutral Eye Palette by Too Faced

I am such a neutral eye fanatic! It is definitely my go-to look. What I love about this palette are the different types of finishes- Matte, shimmer, and a glitter base. The color pay off is so amazing.

3. Hair elastic ball

I seriously think this is the coolest thing I own!! I wear my hair up a lot when I am at home. As soon as I walk in the door my hair goes up into a bun. I tend to lose my hair elastics all the time! Aaaahhh! So annoying. This hair elastic ball is perfect for when I can't find any. I received this as a gift and think it is just so unique!

4. Bath and Body Works- Secret Wonderland Candle

I am a big big fan of B&BW's candles. I just think they smell fantastic. This sent is so different from what I have smelled before. It's like a vanilla-floral scent. It is just amazing. It is a 3-wick candle and the smell stay in my room for at least 2 days! I could not get over that.

5. Bow Rings

I looove bows. Love love love them! I think they are so fun to wear with any outfit. I got mine from Forever 21.

6. Nail Polish- Destiny Pink (Milani) Lincoln Park After Midnight (OPI)

I have lots of polishes, but I seem to stick with nude/pink colors and deep purples. These two are my go-to colors. The one from Milani is great to wear alone or add some light pink glitter polish to it! Fun fun! I love the deep purple of the OPI one, it's a shade lighter than Lincoln Park after Dark and you are able to see more of the Purple shade to it.

7. PINK Body Spray in Bold &Playful

I love perfume, but for me body sprays are a lot cheaper and I am able to buy different varieties at a reasonable price. I love Victoria Secret's body splashes. They are not as fruity as B&BW. This scent is definitely girly and fun and you can't go wrong with a baby pink bottle!!

8. NYX Glitter cream in Ice Queen

I am pretty sure I used to be a drag queen in my past life because I LOVE GLITTER! I cannot get enough of it! When I came across the NYX palettes I was in heaven. I love the MAC Glitters, but these NYX palettes are so easy to use and affordable- $6 for a palette I believe. I usually wear them under my eye, its fun to wear on a night out with the girls!

9. Rimmel Lash Accelerator

I can't get over this mascara. I am a huge fan of Rimmel mascaras. I have worn this everyday since a bought it, probably a month ago and WOW what a difference. My right eye has shorter lashes than my lefty (weird right?!) and I notice that my right eye looks fuller than it has with this mascara. It is definitely something to try!!

I think this is enough for my first post. Thanks for reading!
