Beauty Haul: BSS ( Beauty Supply Store) and Big Lots

Made a drive by to one of the local BSS' in town. Eh, it was a rainy Saturday and I was bored. So, I trolled the store and found some goodies!

Kleancolor No Color No Honey Palette ( Strange name, uh. O_-)

I bought it for the bottom four rows...I like the deep colors in it....$2.99

NK Polish-$1...Mardi Gras, Mystical and Magical....as you can tell I'm trying to make up for never finding Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure.

NK Lipsticks ( got a post coming up on these and some more of them I already have)-$1 Chocolate, Purple Rain, Vibrant Orange.

White Diamonds ala Dame Elizabeth Taylor Oil....for nostalgia's sake.:)

$1 earrings

Then I dropped into Big Lots on Sunday...pressing my luck that I will bump into something epic in the beauty section. The obsession with discontinued products is getting worse!

Revlon Flexi-Buff Foot File-$2- uh? When did they sell these?

Sally Hansen Deep Callus Remover-$2- I'm putting together a pedicure kit for spring/summer feet for me. I hate paying for pedicures. In most cases, I do a better job than the techs.

Sponges-$1- I thought they were cute.:/

L'oreal eyeliner in Nude- hmmmmm.....dupe?

Ms. Manicure dual mineral brush- I like it already.

Fresh Coat: Revlon Perplex, Walgreens Sally Hansen Sale, and New Toms Shoes Essie Polish!!

 Happy Monday!!!

I won a bottle of Revlon Perplex from Gloss and Sticks and received it in the mail on Friday and on Friday night it was Fresh Coated on my nails!! This color...can possibly...replace my favorite polish on the planet, OPI My Private Jet. I keep looking at my nails....It's just gorgeous!

 Perplex without the flash

 Walgreens has a BOGO 50 % on Sally Hansen polish and 2 for $4 sale on Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear polish. The sales can be stacked so....

 As you can see, I got Virtual Violet and Rockstar Pink for 3.00...$3.24 after taxes. I might go back and stock up!!! That's a great deal on some of Sally Hansen's best polish.

A couple weeks back I signed up for a free bottle of polish from Toms Shoes and Essie for Go Without Shoes So Kids Don't Have To Day, which is April 5, 2011. There were only a limited amount and Toms sent me an email last week letting me know I got one and it would receive it soon. That was fast!! The One Day Without Shoes polish came via UPS ( if you signed up and are looking for it) today. Can't wait for a Fresh Coat of it!

Jamie's Weight Loss Diaries....#11 Weigh In....

***Thursday is Weigh In Day...I weigh myself ONCE a week. I can't jump on the scale every day, all times of the day, when I feel fat, before a date....too much on my medicated brain. lol! Once a week is good for me. I'm a born again scale person. I'm just now embracing the scale. I avoid it all thru my teens and twenties....***

March 24, 2011

0 lbs

Down to 221 lbs

(18 lbs lost since 12/30/2010)

I lost no weight this week but I've learned....no gain is good and no loss is good too!

Nothing special to quibble about other than  my time of the month is here and my appetite is all over the place.

I'm ready for summer vegetables and fruit....strawberries, cantaloupe, grilled food....yummmm!!!

Re-joining the Y since they are waiving the joiner's fee and my cousin is going to help me become addicted to working out! So she says!!

I need some new lunch ideas....leave what healthy under 500 calorie lunches you like in the comment box!!

Making Jewelry from PS I Made This!!!

 I ordered this used copy of PS I Made This off Amazon for less than $3. I'm huge fan of the site and I love to want and wish I could make jewelry! lol! Makes no sense. I want to be crafty!!!

 I saw the author, Erica Domesek, make this same necklace on some talk show. Its cute and concept is simple. I would like to make a more sophicated designed one with different colored pantyhose and cylinders. I'm going hunt around for something different.

Anyway...

 Here are the instructions. I could not find bigger balls. Matter of fact, I knew where  I could find them, but I wasn't in a Wal-Mart mood so I went to the local dollar store....

 Bought what I could find....

Made the necklace!!! I like it, but I can't help to think, I'm wearing bouncy balls and pantyhose around my neck. LOL!

Who knew Victoria's Secret Sold This Stuff?? A mini haul:)

I never get "regular" Victoria's Secret catalogs. Only the sale ones. lol!

So, I'm flipping thru the recent sale one I got and there is a coupon code for $10 off any purchase, $10 minimum. My mind goes beserk. Basically just need to pay for shipping on $10 of free stuff. Deal!!


I went straight to the beauty section and picked:

Beauty Rush HyperGloss Conditioner in Appletini-  I didn't know Beauty Rush had hair products. Got this because I needed more detangling conditioners. Its smells amazing!!!

Flexible Hold Hair Spray in Berry Kiss- I can used this on fro-hawks and updos. But seriously, the Garden Collection sells hairspray?

PINK by VS Polish & Bling in Purple- nail polish. no explanation needed. Didn't know they sold this either.


Have you ever seen any of these items in the stores?
