This week has just whizzed by in a blur of working, blogging and Christmas shopping! My Ulta3 advent calendar* has only three more doors to open, which makes my quite excited that Christmas is so close! The past week on CM was a lot of shopping talk and I shared the things I got while I was on holiday in the US last month. Each was split into categories with a break down of products and pricing including swatches where I could.
15th December '14 // USA Haul #001 - Drugstore
I started off cheap, focusing on the drugstores and sharing what I got from Walgreens, Target and even Bed Bath & Beyond.
16th December '14 // USA Haul #002 - MAC
This one is self explanatory, how could I not go the States and not head into MAC. I also got some bits from the gorgeous Heirloom Mix collection that is well worth checking out.
17th December '14 // USA Haul #003 - Nordstrom Haul
Nordstrom Rack was bargains galore and I was over the moon when I discovered the beauty section, nabbing some sets from LORAC and Too Faced.
18th December '14 // USA Haul #004 - Sephora + Macy's
Probably my favourite shop and favourite haul from the whole lot was of course, Sephora. I also included some items from the Macy's beauty hall too.
19th December '14 // USA Haul #005 - Nails
And ending up buying a fair few polishes, so I lumped them all together in one big post. There's also swatches on nail wheels of each shade.
20th December '14 // USA Haul #006 - Skincare, Pefume + Misc.
To round out the hauls, I collated the rest of the goodies I got, including some bits from The Body Shop, a very cheap perfume, as well as a book, some Starbucks souvenirs and a Lego Trevi Fountain.
I really hope you enjoyed all of the hauls this week, obviously I wanted to make them as informative as possible to give you some ideas of what you could buy if you end up in the States soon. There will be lots more in-depth reviews coming after Christmas of a lot of these products that I only briefly touched on; so get excited for those!
