Summer Haul,

Hey everyone,
This is my blogging version of my massive summer haul. This haul consists of all the things I've basically bought over the summer, both online, and me actually walking around into stores to go buy. From the online store pretty and cute, I bought 3 different products from their Acne Control line, which consisted of a cleanser, a toner, and a lotion. Also other products that I got were the TonyMoly Blackhead gel, a 9 piece brush set, Shampoo, Bow fringe, Body scrub, eye lash curler, hair cologne, 2 nail polishes (One from OPI and one from China Glaze), and lastly a necklace.



The products I bought in stores were; clothing material from Victoria's Secret(Bras & Underwear) 2 tank top type shirts from forever 21, a candle and a body scrubber from Bath and body, a bathbomb from LUSH and lastly went to the apple store.












You can read up on my first post I made about the Lioele products that I bought from Pretty and Cute. The things that I didn't buy from that last post that I have in my possession now, are the 9 Piece brush set, shampoo, body scrub, eye lash curler, hair cologne and the 2 nail polishes.

To get started, i'll start off with the body scrub I got. I do like the way it smells, and it did make my skin feel softer. The only thing I didn't like about it was how oily it felt when I used it on my whole body, and it didn't help at the fact it made my scrubber oily as well. So much to the point that I couldn't even keep soap on it. A picture of the product :










The next thing is the shampoo that I bought. It was the Kao Essential shampoo. I really did like this product for picking it out for the very first time. It made my hair feel very soft and clean, it smelt nice too. The only thing I didn't like was basically how small the bottle was, but I will justify my actions for this shampoo being a "tester" for me. I wouldn't definitely buy it again. It lathers very well, and it did wonders to my hair. Considering how oily its been getting ever since summer started. I would highly recommend this product to anyone, it works pretty well for all hair types!

The hair cologne is another test product I bought, and to be honest with you I wasn't too pleased with this product. The smell wasn't all that great and based on the reviews it was supposed stay in your hair all day. I sprayed my hair about twice and the smell would vanish in about 5 minutes. The way the product smelt was kind of like the perfume a really old lady would wear? I know it sounds offensive, but thats the only way I can describe it. I didn't get the "nice fruity" smell everyone was talking about. I wouldn't buy this product again, if I had the opportunity. This is a picture of both hair products I bought from pretty and cute :

The bow shaped fringe I got was wonderful, the first time I ever saw this product I thought it was really stupid. After my difficulty with my hair ( mainly my bangs going all over the place) I decided to get one. The only color I could get at the time was pink, due to the fact all the other colors were sold out. When I got my package in the mail, I was shocked that it came with two in a pack. I tried out the product and I loved it. I ended up buying one more, in baby blue and got a red one as a complimentary gift for buying over 20 dollars worth of products. I am happy with the product, as well as the price. These fringes are by far one of the best products i've bought from pretty and cute. It works great for when I go to wash my face before I go to bed or wake up in the morning. You should definitely buy one ! This is what it looks like :


The next thing is the nine piece brush set, I thought I ordered the high quality brush set, but apparently I was wrong. When I opened up the package, the brushes look EXACTLY like the regular 9 piece brush set with black bristles, instead of the white/pinkish ones in the picture. It wouldn't have matter because either way the pricing was the same. The brushes feel really nice, with the exception of some of them being a little too stiff and poking my eyelids a little. I washed them, yet they still have a weird smell to them. I can't say for sure if I like these brushes enough yet, because I haven't used them as much. I'll be sure to update you guys on weather or not I like the product.


The eyelash curler is something that I really love. I use it everyday to curl my lashes without mascarra. I must say the pretty and cutes little eyelash curler does a fantastic job. I love how small and portable it is, it does wonders. I'm really happy that I bought this eyelash curler. If you're looking for one, I would definitely recommend that you buy one from the pretty and cute website ! You won't be disappointed, it has a very affordable price as well.

The next thing is the 2 nail polishes. one from OPI and one from China glaze. I must say, I am in love with OPI nail polish. I wanted to try out china glaze because everyone would always talk about it. I picked out a nice blue color I liked. I really do love the pink OPI nail polish I got, and am content with the blue china glaze color. Here are what the colors look like on my nails:


The things I went shopping for in stores were basically clothing and bath material as well as electronics. I went into the apple store to go an Ipod nano for when I go running, if you want to know what it looks like go to their website. I ended up getting the blue one. I really do like it, I like how if I get tired of my music I can listen to the radio. Its a nice change for once. The clothes I got were from forever 21. The tops look like this :


Ones a very bright pink with layers on the shirt and has a zipper down the middle. The next one is like a maroon type of color. Vey nice, also has layers to it. I love them both. Another thing I bought from forever21 was earrings, and bracelets:


The products I bought from victoria's secret were both different types of bras as well as underwear. I don't really feel like showing the world my undergarments, so instead of showing then I will describe them to you. The types of bras I got were 2 different types of sports bras, one black and one purple. The one type of bra I got was a body by victoria bra, in a hot pink color, to match with my bright pink tank top shirt I got. The different types of underwear I got were all cotton underwear with the 5 for 25.50 sale. I ended up getting 2 with the victoria secrets logo written on them. One in black and pink and one in white and black. The next one I got was a lace type underwear with pink and white stripes. The next one was a bright yellow with red dots on them. Lastly I have the black cotton underwear with what looks like glitter on them.
I will let you know that when I went to victoria's secret I did get a free bag, for buying an order amount over 75 dollars, this is what the bag looks like:


I also went to lush, the product I like to get over there at the moment is a bathbomb. It is a bathomb called the "Fizzbanger" and it is this cute little yellow ball you basically put it in your tub once you've filled it up. It will start to dissolve and there will be a little paper not the reads "bang" floating around in the water. Based off which color is in the product the most the water will either turn blue or green !

That was pretty much my entire shopping trip, if you guys have any questions feel free to comment. If you want to know the websites of everything I'll list them here:
