Haul of the Week 1.29.14

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I hope you're week has been lovely so far! I'm still trying to kick this cold, but I really don't like resting! Can you believe that January is almost over already? I can't! I still haven't had many packages come in, and still no sign of one I ordered three weeks ago, but I did get two lovely packages this week.



What did you get this week? Anything new from a shop you haven't tried before?
Have a wonderful day!

Haul of the Week 1.22.14

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I hope you're having a wonderful week so far! I'm so glad that this week just seems to be flying by since Rob had last Monday off. I ordered some balms two weeks ago from two different *new(to me)* shops, but neither package has shipped yet. It always makes me so weary to purchase from sites that aren't Etsy or a direct shop from a shop I know. I've received confirmations for both orders, but nothing on shipping which kind of stinks. I was hoping to have more to share with you today, but I just have a teeny tiny haul for you this week.


That's it!
What goodies did you get this week? Did you get something awesome?
Have a lovely day!

Haul of the Week 1.8.14

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Today's Rob's birthday so I've got some birthday stuff to get together for him. I absolutely love gift shopping and making peoples' days special so I'm really excited, as is he! I'm baking a cake and getting his last presents all together, so today I'll have fun doing that. I haven't posted a haul in two or so weeks, so this haul this week is kind of a conglomeration of everything I've picked up since Christmas which actually hasn't been that much (might need to change that!). Enjoy!

Like I said, not a lot has been going on in the lip balm department over here. I have so many I need to review that I don't really want to buy a ton more if they're just going to be sitting around for a while waiting to be reviewed. That's also why sometimes my Mini Mondays are replaced with other things or written last minute, because I'm usually trying to find some balms to write about! 

What balms did you get this week? Anything new you'd recommend I try?
Have a wonderful day, everyone!

Haul of the Week 12.18.13

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I cannot believe that Christmas is only a week away! I'm so excited to give gifts this year and I'm also excited to spend some time with my family. After I posted my haul last week, I received so many packages! I had a ball opening everything and was super excited to show you all my haul. I hope you enjoy!

Haul of the Week 12.11.13

Happy Wednesday, everyone! More and more of my Black Friday packages are arriving this week and I'm so excited to go through everything! And of course, I'm excited to share everything with you all. Here are some things that I received this week:


(review)




The picture of the skin cream was one of my Black Friday hauls from LWF (I have another coming next week I think) and the lip balm picture is this season's installment of my lip balm subscription from LWF.


Have your Black Friday orders started coming in? What goods did you get?
Have a wonderful day!

Haul of the Week 12.4.13

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I still cannot believe that it is December, I had to check three times to make sure I was putting the right date. It just does not feel like it should be December yet! I'm sorry today's post is late, I didn't really have a haul, but I knew I was getting a package last night. With the sun setting at about 4:20 pm every day, I lose the light to take decent pictures of everything. This week's haul is small, but I'm hoping next week's is much bigger!

I've only used the eye cream twice (since I just got this package last night), but so far I LOVE it! I haven't tried the lip balms yet because I decided to wear red lipstick yesterday and didn't want to get them all messed up, you know what I mean?

It's been a while since I've done a drugstore brand lip balm review, so when I saw these I decided to try them out!

What balms did you get this week? Have your Black Friday purchases started arriving yet?
Have a wonderful day!

Haul of the Week 11.27.13

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I hope you're having a wonderful short week this week! We're headed to Chicago today and we're really excited to see our families! Thanksgiving is my absolute favorite holiday, I mean, come on, who doesn't love a holiday centered around being thankful, eating amazing food, and spending quality time with the ones you love? You've gotta love that! My haul this week is kind of a combination of balms I've gotten over the last two weeks, packing things up kind of messed up what I was supposed to be taking photos of and posting about. I hope you enjoy!



Yes, did you see all of that? Eco Lips sent me over one of every one of their products to try! Holy cow! This all in addition to being able to create my own balms using [My] Eco Lips. Thank you SO much, Eco Lips!

What balms did you get this week?
Have a lovely day and a wonderful holiday tomorrow (if you're celebrating)!

Haul of the Week 11.20.13

Happy Wednesday, everybody! It has been so hard for me to get back on track this week, which is awful because I have to take the GRE tomorrow. This past weekend was so draining since we got very little sleep and didn't really have any time to rest. I cannot wait for this weekend so that I can finally catch up on sleep and just do absolutely nothing for a little while. I don't have too much to show you today, but I hope you enjoy this week's haul!
I took advantage of Wicked Soaps' anniversary sale they had going on about a week and a half ago and got myself some new balms.

I haven't been able to open my October Birchbox yet (I had it shipped to my parent's house in Illinois since we didn't know if we'd be living here or not), so I was really looking forward to my November box. I really love a lot of what's in this month's box and I cannot wait to use everything!
If you'd like to sign up for Birchbox, please use my referral link!

What did you get this week? Are you a subscriber to a beauty box? If so, which one(s) and what do you think of yours?
Have a wonderful day, everyone!

Haul of the Week 11.13.13

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I hope you're having a great week so far! In two days we get to move into our new apartment and I couldn't be more excited! I'm not looking forward to our move this weekend though because we're flying into San Francisco very, very early Saturday morning and moving all our stuff from storage (basically all of our stuff from our old 2 bedroom apartment) into a truck and driving it up here to be back by 2pm on Sunday. So this weekend will definitely be super exhausting! I apologize if there are any missing posts this weekend, my mind will probably be elsewhere. Anyway, I'm really loving all of the balms I got in the mail this week!

I was amazed and what I found in my package from Jen this week, she threw in 8 extra balms in my order! Holy cow! They're all seriously amazing. Also, I really love her lotion and lip scrub! You really can't go wrong with any Little Batch product! Also, don't forget that through the end of November you can get free shipping from Little Batch with code: FreeShipLBW.


The President/Founder of Eco Lips contacted me last week to see if I'd be interested in trying out their [My] Eco Lips balms. Uh, how could I possibly pass up such a wonderful opportunity? I created my first balm almost immediately! What [My] Eco Lips allows you to do is pick everything that goes into your balm and fully customize it. You're not just picking out a flavor or a label design, you're picking everything that goes into the formula as well! I was nervous to receive mine because I picked a few ingredients that I wasn't familiar with and thought that the balm may turn out bad, but boy, this balm is incredible! I love the consistency of it! I'll do a full review on this later, you're not going to want to miss that!

What balms did you receive this week?
Have a wonderful day!

Haul of the Week 11.6.13

Happy Wednesday! We just found out on Monday that we're staying here in Seattle, yay! So I apologize if there's a few days I don't post, we're going to be moving our stuff up from San Francisco (driving it ourselves) and then have to unpack so that'll take up a few days. I'm also taking the GRE in less than 3 weeks, so I'm going to be studying like crazy. ANYWAY, my hauls have been pretty small lately, but I've been doing it on purpose so that we could have some extra money for this move and because I'm waiting for Black Friday. Are you cutting back on buying balm until then? Here's what I've got for you this week:

In addition to hosting a giveaway on my blog, Adriana was kind enough to send me these two balms to try. They both smell amazing!

I'm slowly finding all of these Intense Moisture Softlips...I just need one more! I cannot stop using these balms, I really like them!

What balms did you get this week?
Have a lovely day!

Haul of the Week 10.30.13

Happy Wednesday! I have a pretty small haul this week because we're trying to save some money in case we are moving here permanently (yeah, we still don't know...it's been over a month). So I have to think long and hard before I buy something, which is something I'm not used to when it comes to balm! Just joking, I've actually become a lot less impulsive in the last couple of months. Anyway...here's what I got this week:
I finally found one of the new Intense Moisture balms from Softlips, I wish I could get my hands on the others! I haven't stopped using this since I bought it. 

I was contacted by a Mary Kay representative to see if I'd like to try out some of their products for a Halloween look. I have a post going up in a little while about which look they had me try. 

What did you receive this week?
Have a lovely day!

Haul of the Week 10.23.13

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I hope you're having a lovely day! I'm trying to transition from Vegas-mode to my usual daily routine, so I'm hoping today I'm much more productive than I have been since we got back on Sunday. How long does it usually take you to transition back to your usual self/routine after a vacation? The one awesome thing about going away for a little while is coming home to a ton of packages! Here's what welcomed me when I came home:

I really can't stay away from any new LWF balms, and I'm pretty obsessed with Amanda's perfume oils so I had to get a few more of those as well.

I know, there's no lip balm in this order, but I'm becoming more and more obsessed with smell goods!

I was contacted by a Mary Kay representative to see if I'd be interested in trying one of their new holiday gift sets. I chose their Viva Red! set, so stay tuned for my review after I try these out a few times.

My package I received last week from ChapStick was open and missing tubes of their new ChapStick Gingerbread Kiss, but they quickly sent me some new ones!

I've been having some bad luck with packages lately, I was supposed to receive this last week, but it went missing. But, Ashley was super awesome and sent out a new package right away. Boy, these were definitely worth the wait!

What goodies did you receive in the mail this week?
Have a wonderful day!
