My Magazine Haul! How Shopping and Reading Magazines Goes Hand in Hand for Me!

I get A LOT of magazines every month and it drives the hubby crazy. One of the ways I get rid of them quickly is by flipping through them and tearing out all of the articles and ads that interest me so that I can focus on those and throw the bulk of the magazine away. I then construct a wishlist from the torn out ads, and sometimes I actually end up buying some of the stuff! Recently, I've acquired quite a few things from my torn out ads and I thought I'd share my haul with you!

---

Dove Sheer Touch Skin Renew  Antiperspirant/Deodorant ($3.89 at Target)- I'm of the opinion that you can never have enough deodorant. I'm a big fan of Dove and have been using it for YEARS, but I really wanted to try the newer formulas. The "Go Sleeveless" formula moisturizes and calms shaving irritation "for smooth, beautiful underarms in just 5 days." The "Clear Tone" formula {the one I purchased}visibly reduces dark marks and evens tone with regular use over time. I thought maybe I could compare these two with the regular formula to see if there was any marked difference. Does that sound like an interesting post {I promise not to include pictures of my pits}?

L'Oreal Paris Infallible Super Slim Liner in Black ($8.49 at Target) - The only bit of makeup I never leave home without, is black eyeliner, preferably liquid and definitely long wearing. Of course I was drawn to this beauty! It has a precise 0.4 mm, ultra fine tip, has a quick dry formula, and is supposed to last for 12 hours. Plus it's super dark and opaque-that's basically eyeliner heaven for me!

Revlon Lash Potion Volume + Length Waterproof Mascara
($4.99 at target.com)- Put Emma Stone on anything and I'm all over it! No but really, it's been years since I've tried a Revlon mascara, and I've heard nothing but rave reviews about this one, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Plus it was $4.99 {already an awesome price} and I had a manufacturer's coupon for $1 off and a Target Coupon for $1 off so I got it for $2.99. SCORE!!!

Maybelline Fit Me Shine Free Foundation ($6.99 at Target)- Another product I've heard rave reviews about, me and my oily skin felt compelled to try this out too! It was a bit like kismet when I actually found my shade, so I bought it. I've actually used it a couple of times already and I really like it! It blends in so well, looks really natural, and offers light to medium coverage. It keeps you shine free for a while, but I find it works best when set with powder. One of my favorite things about it is ease of application {you can blend with your fingers}and its portability-it will be going with me on our upcoming trip to New Jersey. 

L'Oreal True Match Crayon Concealer ($7.99 at Target)- Another one I wanted, but absolutely had to buy when I found my shade {I feel like I've won a prize when I find a drugstore product in my shade}. I've only used it a few times, and on blemishes, so I can't yet attest to its real longevity. But I can tell you that it's almost surprisingly creamy and really easy to blend. Once again though, my favorite thing about it is the uber convenient packaging-this will be another item in my makeup bag for our road trip.

I got it all for $39.99 plus taxes, shipping and handling

Korres Greek Yoghurt Advanced Nourishing Sleeping Facial ($45 at  Sephora)- I've wanted this for a long while, especially after I tried the Wild Rose Overnight Facial and found it to be FANTASTIC, only to have the hubby tell me that it smells like and old lady and gives him a headache. So I was super stoked when the Greek Yoghurt version was introduced, but just couldn't justify spending the $45. Lucky for me, I happened to accidentally turn to HSN during an hour of Korres sales, and this beauty was being offered in a set, with the lovely item below, a body butter, and a facial moisturizer-for $39.99 AND it was available on flex pay! I had to do it, I had to do it. And I did it. It's been done. It's mine and it's AMAZING. I swear it's like waking up with someone else's skin when I use this, especially when I use it coupled with the Greek Youghurt Moisturizer. 

Korres Greek Yoghurt Nourishing Lip Cooler ($19 at Sephora)- I didn't even realize that this was one of the items in my magazine "wishlist" until I was going through the pages I've accumulated while cleaning. But lo and behold, there it was in the stack, and I just happened to have gotten it in the set mentioned above. I got the plain version and it's a new HG for me. It cools, buffs, hydrates, softens, and it tastes good-so basically it's the best lip gloss EVER!

L'Oreal Paris Sublime Suncreen Oil Spray SPF 30 ($9.99 at Target)- Um, once again, the draw of celebrity spokes models got me. Jennifer Lopez' big bronze booty beauty sold me on this sunscreen. Plus I've been obsessed with sunscreens as of late {I'm currently testing out a bunch for a sunscreen roundup I'm working on}, and my favorite formulas {especially for the girls}are spray forms. Look out for a post on a blog near you featuring this lovely. 

Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Lip Balm in Minty Sheer, Oh! Orange, and Fierce N Tangy ($2.99 at Target)- I've already admitted that I may have a slight problem obsession with lip balms and as I shared in this post, Baby Lips rank in my top 10 {though that list may need to be revisited after my introduction to the goodness of Korres}. Anyway, I had to do it. Again. And I'm not sorry. Except that now that I have these three, I want the other three. Plus a few for Peyton. I already said I have a problem.

Does anyone else read there magazines like I do or am I just a total weirdo {it's okay, I'm comfortable with that}? Have you tried any of the items in my haul or are any of them on your wish/shopping list? What are you absolutely loving now that I need to buy? My inquiring mind wants to know! Leave a comment below and let me know what you're thinking! Until next time...
