Heya Aspiring Gurus!
It is the weekend and you know what that means! Yes, I actually have time to write really nice blog posts with all of my free time. I decided to share an Amazon haul with you all today. I still have another Amazon haul in the works and the Lush one as well. I didn’t end up going out to shop today, because I woke up with severe hip pain. I’m hoping it will be much improved by tomorrow, because I am planning on buying a Christmas Tree, looking at new used cars, going to the Christmas Tree Shops, the Dollar Tree, Kmart, and Petsmart. I have a few Christmas DIYs in my mind as well and I’m sort of still thinking on how best to execute them. Hopefully, I can get back on track tomorrow. Anyways, here are the goods that you have been waiting this entire post to read about.
Replacement Brush Head Acne Cleansing 3 Pack for 6.02 USD
These are knockoff replacement Clarisonic brush heads that feel like the real thing. I think these are a tad softer than the legit Clarisonic heads and of course, these are not antimicrobial. Still, I feel like I can get a month’s use out of one brush head, which still makes it a better value over the Clarisonic version. I wouldn’t feel safe for using the heads for longer than a month, because I do not want to harbor bacteria. I might try a different kind in three months, when these are all used up. I’m thinking about trying out the deep pore cleansing brushes next. I am really happy to be back to using my Clarisonic again. I missed it so! It really does give my face a better clean that you can really feel.
Essence Mask Combo – 10 Different Kinds for 9.95 USD
I tried the seaweed one today and I have to say that I quite enjoyed it. I actually know have twenty of these with that whole mishap with my package. I cannot wait to try all of these out and you can bet that I will be doing Sample Wednesday of each different kind of mask. I will then do a review of the Brand of Masks as a whole. I’m going to be very thorough with this, since this venture into paper masks is very new to me. Does any of these look good to anyone? Which one do you want me to try next? Thanks in advance. I have to say that it wasn’t what I was expecting, but in a really good way.
The Long Road Home (Book 3 of A Place Called Home Series) by Lori Wick for 3.37 USD
I read the first book and enjoyed it (a book review to come!). The book that I got on paperbackswap was a two-books-in-one type, so I am already reading the second book in the series. I want to own the whole series, because I really enjoy the books by this author. I am pretty sure that I will like this book, but if not, it was only a few dollars and really no big deal. Lori Wick is to me like Meg Cabot is to Danielle: aka a really big deal. Although, I do enjoy Meg Cabot as well. I really wish that I could read all of the great books in the world. I know that I will never really read all the books I have ever wanted to read, but hey, I’m gonna try.
The Sims 3 Expansion Bundle With World Adventures & Generations for 17.11 USD
This was a really great two for one deal. I am saving this for a Christmas present to myself, so I refuse to open it. I have since wrapped this up, so I do not have to be tempted. I am super excited that I will be getting to play World Adventures. I have heard so many great things about it and I just cannot wait to play it. Generations looks like it will add a lot of great features to the game. The features that I am most excited for are the chemistry experiments and the bachelorette parties. I should make a little Sim movie and upload it. I think that that would be very fun and different. There are really just two computer games that I play: The Sims and Nancy Drew. Those are my nerd obsessions.
The Sims 3 Island Paradise for 19.99 USD
I bought this at Walmart, because I thought that it looked really cool and like I said, I am sort of obsessed. I was upset to find out that Walmart does not price match to their online price. I think that that is ridiculous and stupid, even Kmart price matches in the store. Whatever. I am never buying games at Walmart ever again. I am so disappointed with the store. I haven’t played this game either, because I am saving it for Christmas. I have two four day weekends coming up. One for Christmas and one for New Years, back to back, so I will definitely be getting a lot of game play soon enough.
So, that is my amazon haul, except for the one item that I bought at Walmart. I hope you all enjoyed this haul and this sneak peek into my life. Every day is getting us closer…to CHRISTMAS!! Talk to you guys soon!
With Love,
Selena Hannah xoxoxo
Looks like an awesome haul. I’ve never tried Snail essence masks.
Thanks! It sounds really wierd, but I’m interested in the skin benefits.Have you tried an aloe mask or a whitening mask before?
Yes. I have a blog post on an Aloe mask. It is hydrating & good for oily skin to balance the moisture. I like to use Aloe or Green Tea masks when my skin is irritated…it calms it. Whitening is good for fading acne scars & brightening the appearance of your skin. Hope this helps.
Thank you so much! This is really helpful and interesting. I cannot wait to write my own post about this. Let me know if you have any recommendations for me. Are you excited for Christmas? I know I am.
I am excited for Christmas too! Hope yours is awesome! 🙂 Look forward to your posts! 🙂
I hope mine is too. I wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy new year. I hope to see your Christmas Day haul and see what you got for Christmas. I love being nosy like that.
& no it is not weird. I started my blog & facial friday’s to learn about skin benefits too!
It’s good to know I’m not the only one.😁
great haul! that’s odd about Walmart. I mean, they used to have ads running they would match prices generally? But seems very odd to not match to their own online price really.
Yeah, I was fuming. They have adds running that they price match, but they refused to price match their own site. But I could go home, order it online, and then drive all the way back to the store to pick it up. Foolishness.
Hi Selena, Not sure if you do tags, but I decided to tag you for the Winter 2014 Essentials Tag (http://theworldofcos.wordpress.com/2014/12/17/winter-2014-essentials-tag/) since I enjoy your blog and enjoyed chatting with you about sheet masks on here the other day. Only do this tag if you feel like it. Thanks again! Enjoying your posts! 🙂
I will do this for sure! Thank you for tagging me. I enjoyed talking with you too. I’ll read your post and put up mine in an hour or so. I felt like skipping sample Wednesday anyway. 🙂
