Black Friday Roundup! Sigma, Amerian Eagle, Ulta and More!!

Hi everyone and happy Thanksgiving!! Today is all about family, food and being thankful for just being alive and healthy.  My family is doing this a bit different today. We aren't having the traditional Thanksgiving meal, we're having hamburgers and chips :) What's your favorite Thanksgiving dish? Anyway, along with Thanksgiving comes Black Friday shopping, the initial kickoff to holiday shopping.  This year, Black Friday is starting tonight, on Thanksgiving at some stores such as Walmart and Target at 8pm. Others start at midnight. My personal view is that this is awful for those who have to work instead of spend time with their family. But some people want to just get their shopping done. In anticipation of the huge sales, I thought I'd do a quick roundup of the sales I think are the best before my family gets here.





Let's start with fashion, shall we?


American Eagle is offering 40% off with free shipping. This is in stores and online. I even have a code for you! 35787891. This will be good through November 25. ae.com



Forever21 is offering 40% off today for Thanksgiving as well as free shipping on orders of $50 or more forever21.com


JCPenny's is where to be if you want great deals on fashion! Juniors jeans are $15 and sweaters are $12. Plus if you order online there's free shipping. jcp.com



If you live in the midwest like I do and have a Younkers, Rampage boots are only $20, plus there are several coupons included in the Black Friday ad that can  be applied to sale items. Pretty sweet deal if you ask me! Younkers.com

Makeup

Ulta is offering some pretty nice door buster sets. There are a couple Bare Mineral sets for only $10 . Conair hair tools only $10 as well and Conair products are really great quality, so if you can jump on that deal do it! Also worth noting from Ulta, hairdryers and flat irons from CHI are $74.96 with a 25% off coupon that's included in the ad. ulta.com

Sephora is also offering some $10 sets. YOu can check their facebook page which will have the sets listed. The one that jumps out at me is the Too Faced set that includes the Chocolate Solei Matte Bronzer and travel kabuki brush. Don't forget all the fantastic gift sets such as the Sephora Lash Stash and Give Me Some Lip. http://www.sephora.com/

Are you ready for this one? Sigma Brushes is offering FREE WORLD WIDE SHIPPING!  International shipping is insane, so I definitely suggest taking advantage of this one. Coupon for free shipping is BF2012 which is valid until Friday, November 23 at midnight. http://www.sigmabeauty.com/?Click=224226

Review: L’Oreal Infallible 24 HR Eyeshadow

 

Hey guys! I know these have been out for a very long time, but I just recently broke down and bought a couple. I have to say, after trying these out, I can’t believe that it took so long for me to try them. These eye shadows are so buttery and pigmented and simply gorgeous.The two that I bought are Bottomless Java and Endless Pearl(which after hearing Amarixe rave about it).

Bottomless Java is a rich, dark brown that looks amazing as an outer corner color or all over the lid for a brown smokey eye.  Endless Pearl is a gorgeous cream color that works great as a high light or all over the lid color.

L’Oreal claims that these shadows are supposed to last 24 hours. I don’t know about that, cause I never have had to wear my makeup for longer than 15. But these do last all day without creasing or fading. The texture of these reminds me a bit of Urban Decay’s eyeshadows in that they are so buttery.  I definitely want to pick up some more of these. If you have tried L’Oreal Infallible eyeshadows do you have ny color suggestions?

Wishlist Wednesday: Tarte Fantastic Foursome Amazonian Clay Blush Set

There is one thing that I've been majorly hinting at that I want for Christmas and it is this amazing blush set from Tarte. I've never tried any of the Amazonian Clay blushes but I have swatched them at Ulta and fell in love.  For the holidays, Tarte came out with this pack of four blushes for only $35.



Included is a very pretty hot pink, coral, a very natural tanish color, and a highlighter.

So what do you think of Tarte's blushes? Are they worth it? And since its November and almost the start of the holiday shopping season, what's on your holiday wishlist?

Review: Boots No & Beautifl Skin Night Cream

I received a sample of this night cream in my Influenster Beauty Blogger Vox Box and I fell in love, so much so that I already went and purchased the full size . I have really dry skin so heavier night creams are a must for me that way my skin has the chance to absorb the moisturizer.  I gotta say, I ‘really like the packaging.  It’s a really sturdy plastic, but it looks very sleek.
This moisturizer is fantastic, its hydrating, but not oily. It absorbs into the skin very quickly too. It doesn’t irritate my eyes which is always a bonus.  I feel like this really has made my skin more beautiful. My face just seems more radiant.  I’ve even been going without foundation recently since using this product. I’ve been simply using concealer on my problem areas, a bit of powder and I’m good to go.

Boots No7 is available at Target, Ulta and wherever Boots products are sold. It was around $13 which is not bad for a night cream.  I highly recommend checking this is your looking for a new night time moisturizer :) Until next time, stay beautiful!

Target Fall Beauty Bag

 

 

Every once in a while, Target gives out free beauty bags on facebook.  This one is sadly the last. I’ve only received two of these bags.  This one wasn’t that exciting all it contained was a couple of shampoo samples.  Granted it is free and I shouldn’t complain, I wish the samples were a little better.

Included in the bag was:
Clear Scalp & Hair Therapy Nourishing Shampoo and Conditioner
L’oreal EverCreme Sulfate Free Nourishing Shampoo and Condioner and Deep Nourishing Masque
Fakkai Shea Butter Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner 
Pixie Flawless Beauty Primer
Jergens Daily Moisture Lotion

The Pixie Primer is sort of exciting but a bigger sample would have been better so I could try it more than once.  The lotion is really nice. As usual the bag came with a booklet of coupons which is really nice. The last bag’s coupon book had more coupons for makeup than this one does but I’ll take any savings I can get.  If you got the beauty bag, what did you think of it?
