What was inside your Birchbox this month?
Guess what finally showed up?
It’s the free Target Beauty Bag I posted about way back in August.
How cute is the bag? It’s actually more pinkish than the picture is showing.
Look at all the samples!
Included in the Beauty Bag this year:
And on top of that you get a packet of coupons for Beauty Products.
A great freebie!
Did you sign up for the beauty bag?
Have you received yours yet?
I’d love to hear your opinions!
Best,
How gorgeous is Nicole Scherzinger?
I’ve been a fan for awhile and recently while flipping through one of my magazines (Glamour) I read an article on her favorite beauty products and thought I’d share them with you.
Her Skin Secret is : Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint in Bronzed $38.00
Her Shiny Hair Secret: Moroccanoil Treatment $41.00
Her SPF Mega Splurge: La Prairie Cellular Radiance Emulsion SPF 30 $425.00
Her Favorite Mascara: Dior Diorshow Black Out $25.00
Her Lipstick that doubles as a blush: Chanel Rouge Allure Lip Color in Darling $32.00
It seems Nicole, 33, likes to splurge when it comes to her beauty products.
I mean $435.00 for a SPF?!?!
It better make me look 10 years younger for that price, haha.
What do you think of her favorites?
Have you tried any of them yourself?
What were your thoughts?
Have you heard of Birchbox?

I was out doing some Christmas shopping tonight and decided to stop into Ross. Do you have those where you live? If so check them out because right now they have some amazing deals going on.
I picked up the Jason Natural Products Orange Cranberry Satin Gift Set for only $4.99. It’s on Amazon right now for $17.99!! This set would make a wonderful gift for someone, though I must admit I’m keeping this one for myself. It comes with a body wash, hand soap and lotion. I love Jason products and this scent is wonderful. I’m very excited about this deal.
I also picked up this ELF Smokey Eye kit for $3.99. This kit contains: Drama Eye Shadow, Black Earth & Water Mascara, Eye Liner in Black, Smudge Brush, and Eye Lash Curler. The eyelash curler is my favorite drugstore curler it works great! This kit would make a nice little gift for someone or you could use it as a stocking stuffer.
They also had several other Jason and Elf sets, Playboy brand makeup, lots of name brand haircare gift sets and stuff from lots of other brands. I was in a hurry so I just grabbed these two things and left, but it’s definitely worth checking out if you live near a Ross store.
Have you found any great deals at Ross, Marshalls, TJ Max or similar stores lately? Please share.
