CVS Beauty Don't Stop Event

 Hello Everyone! 

*Disclaimer: I've partnered with Kaplow with CVS Beauty for this post for their All in on Skin Event. I want to thank Kaplow and CVS for sending over these products. All opinions are 100% my own.

Today I bring you another wonderful sale event at CVS. CVS first ever Beauty Don't Stop Event! As many of you know I've been shopping at CVS for years to purchase many of my favorite drugstore beauty products. Here are a few of the items that you can purchase during the Beauty Don't Stop Event. 

From October 25 – November 21, you can score weekly hot deals and ExtraBucks rewards on cosmetics, skincare, wellness, haircare and more.

I love using all these brands, so I can't wait to try these skincare products! Based on the description of these products, I think they're going to be good to use during the upcoming colder months.

CVS never disappoints me on their beauty products. I typically don't wear false eyelashes since mine are long, but I have been wanting to wear fake lashes. I like how Kiss has a starter kit. I also like the colors of the nail polish and eyeshadow. Gold is perfect for the holidays. I've never tried the Almay Eyeshadow Remover Pads, so I'm interested to see how well they will remove my eyeshadow. 

All these products would also make great stocking stuffers or Christmas gifts in general. Are you shopping the Beauty Don't Stop Event at CVS? 

Bath & Body Works: Christmas 2020

 Hello Everyone!

Can you believe that I haven't been in a Bath & Body Works in over a year? Yesterday I went to Bath & Body Works to do a few exchanges and use a 20% off coupon.

Update: I went two different days to Bath & Body Works and I was able to take a few more pictures when I exchanged my candles. 

I notice this year B&BW has various candle holders for the holidays. 

Santa Approved

This display is so pretty!

I went to Bath & Body Works when the doors opened yesterday morning so I was one of the first shoppers.  

At my local Bath & Body Works there only allowing 14 people in a time with mask and social distance mandatory.

I noticed that the bags are different from the past. I was surprised the Christmas Bags weren't out yet.

You deserve the best. Cute candle boxes

I love Christmas Cookie and Vanilla Bean Noel. These are my favorite holiday scents. Lately I've noticed that the sales aren't very good at Bath & Body Works. As Mentioned earlier in the post, I did a couple of exchanges for the newer candles and I had a coupon for 20% off. 

I was able to get a few hand soaps during the hand soap sale last weekend. I missed the last sale, but I'm glad I caught this one. 

What are your favorite Holiday products from Bath & Works?

Come Along with Me: Fall Edition

Hello Everyone!

Since this pandemic started I mentioned that I only go out when I have to. For the first time in months I actually went to a few non essential places. I went fairly early to avoid crowds. 

Yesterday started out cloudy, but mid afternoon the weather was warm and sunny. I guess South Carolina forgot it's Fall lol

A new Big Lots recently opened so my mom and I went to check it out.  This used to be a Bi-Lo Grocery Store.

I mainly went to browse around the new store and check out the Christmas Decor. Big Lots has a lot of pretty silver Christmas decor this year.

More Silver Christmas decor

This is more of the traditional Christmas decor and color in this aisle. 

This morning, like yesterday started off cloudy and 

Foggy. This isn't Lake Murray lol.

By mid morning the sun made an appearance. I really wish the Fall temperatures would return. It's been warm the past few days.

I forgot to take pictures in Dollar Tree since I went in to get a few more home essentials. 

Here's Lake Murray :)

I haven't had Jersey Mike's in a few months, so I had a sub for dinner. I actually had points I forgot about and got a free sub.

A few more home essentials I picked up. I didn't go to that many places since I'm still limiting going out. I had a nice time out and about. I saw people without masks on, please remember to wear your masks! 😷 

Updated Wednesday October 28, 2020

I waited a few days to check out Hobby Lobby because the store is always so crowded, but this morning I went when the store opened and the crowd wasn't too bad.

Homegoods 

Homegoods is another store that is always crowded, just as I did with Hobby Lobby, I went when Homegoods opened. 

Homegoods had so many beautiful items in stock this morning. 

Homegoods Happy 😊 

Home Essentials

 Hello Everyone!

I mentioned a few months ago when the pandemic began that finding items in the store was challenging especially groceries. It's challenging finding some products, but I've been having more luck with finding home essentials. 

Before I start today's post I wanted to mention that I didn't know that Fed Ex delivered on Sunday. I received this PR Sample from Zoya for their Intriguing Collection: Holiday 2020.

Adulting is finding a new vacuum at a reasonable price and being happy about it lol.

I started taking the Hair, Nail, and Skin Gummies by Natures Bounty and I've seen positive results. I received a bottle from CVS, but once I finished those I caught a sale for the largest bottle. My nails are continuing to grow healthy.  I usually wear the disposable masks, so when CVS had more in stock I picked up a few more. Thankfully I've been able to find Toilet Paper and Paper Towels when I go out.

Adulting is also finding essentials you need in one trip and being happy about it lol.

A few years ago I purchased a set of these Cellar Ware dishes and I absolutely love them. I caught a good sale for this set. I just wish that I could've found another set of the appetizer plates.

Look familiar? As I mentioned these are the exact same dishes as the other set that I have. I also added a few single bowls.

My mom is so thoughtful she told me she saw this Time Magazine featuring Ruth Bader Ginsburg and she thought I would love it since I admired her and her career. My mom knows me so well :) 

Last, but not least I can't post a home essentials post without candles and a wax warmer. I haven't purchased candles or wax warmers in a long time since I have a good bit from my candle stash. I'm actually just getting back into buying candles more. For the past few months I've been using wax warmers, but I did miss burning candles!

My Thoughts 

Zoya never disappoints me with their collections and the Intriguing Collection is gorgeous! The sparkling shades and cream colors are perfect for the holidays seasons. There are classic red and green shades with other shades of red and green that will go well the holiday season. I love how Zoya incorporates blue tones. I'm so happy that blue is getting noticed more for the holidays. I think blue is such a mysterious beautiful color!

All the colors are gorgeous, but I can't wait to wear Regina, Meredith, Koley, and Lottie. I must be ready for the holdiay season because I'm loving all things that sparkle right now! What are your favorite polishes from this collection?
