::SQUEAL:: Urban Decay will be on Hautlook again!

If you’ve read my post for a while you’ll know I’m a fan of Urban Decay cosmetics. It’s a top quality cosmetic brand with edgy and vibrant colors.  They even offer vegan options.  This makeup is so me. What I don’t like about it is the normal price. So, I scout sales, deals, coupons, and free shipping offers which aren’t very often..

Back in December Urban Decay was offered on Hautlook for $2 per piece!!! Unheard of, cheaper than your cheapest brand at the local drugstore.  But alas, I was strapped with Christmas shopping and felt guilty spending any money on myself. 

It’s ok though, Hautelook is making it up to me.  Urban Decay will be on Hautelook again 3/31.  I’ve marked my calendar.  I have a feeling it’s going to sell out fast this time.  A lot of people on their facebook page have been talking about it.  You can bet I’ll be there with my virtual shopping cart full if it’s $2 a pop again. 

Hautelook is a daily deal site. You’ll need to be a member to take advantage of this sale.  It’s free to sign up though.  Do it now, not the day of the Urban Decay sale if you want it so you can get in, get your loot and pat yourself on the back for being such a savvy beauty shopper.  You can sign up HERE if you’re not a member yet.

Did you know you could load coupons on Giant Eagles website?

For those who don’t know, Giant Eagle is a grocery chain here in the north east.  To be honest, I don’t shop there much because I find they’re prices are much higher on most the items I buy compared to other places I shop.  Giant Eagle is convenient to me though so if I just need to pick up a couple things and have some coupons,  I’ll stop there. 

I just learned today that you can load coupons to your Giant Eagle advantage card . Maybe it’s because I don’t shop there as often or maybe it’s new I don’t know.  Anywho, if you go to www.gianteagle.com and register your Giant Eagle advantage cards, it will save the coupons on your card and automatically take off the deductions at the register.  The website says that a Giant Eagle advantage card can store up to 45 coupons on your card.   Go to the eoffers section on the site or you can click this link to take you directly to the eoffers page: http://www.gianteagle.com/save/eoffers

There were a few decent coupons I clipped that I will most likely use: $1.00 off Luvs diapers, $2.00 pampers cruisers, .75 off Pledge multi-surface are some examples.  Maybe I’ll make a few more trips to Giant Eagle now.  Well that and their FREE antibiotics program at the pharmacy and the Fuelperks and Foodperks programs.  Hmm come to think of it, Giant Eagles not too bad at all.

Bare Escentuals is introducing their new BareMinerals Skin Care line

Bare Escentuals is introducing their new BareMinerals skin care line. The skin care line includes a patent pending RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complex which has 3 X’s the antioxidants of blueberries. 

bareMinerals new skin care line includes cleansers, moisturizers, and treatments like bareMinerals blemish therapy for instance. 

bareMinerals offers a variety of cleanser for your skin care needs.  The cleanser I think I’d most like to try would be the Deep Cleansing Foam.  It’s a rich cleanser that cleans down deep into pores.  I’m prone to breakouts in my T-zone so I think this one would be great for me.  It’s non-drying which for me is also a plus.  I also get dry itchy winter skin.  Other cleansers often dry out my skin.  So no pimples but then I get flakes. I’m thinking this might be the ticket for me.

In the moisturizers category, there is one for combination skin like mine. bareMinerals Purely Nourishing moisturizer.  This moisturizer is a hard working it seems.  It moisturizes, firms, improves elasticity and over all skin texture.  Ok sign me up.

As for the treaments, I’d have to go with the bareMinerals blemish therapy I noted earlier in the post for reasons I’ve already stated. 

Hear what others are buzzing about bareMinerals skin care lineon the Bare Escentuals Cosmetics Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/bareescentuals

What about you?  If you were to try the new Bare Escentuals bareMinerals skin care line, what would you want to try?

Bugalug review functional and cute accessories for your little one

I dress my toddler for his comfort and for my ease.  Trying to dress my 21 month is sometimes a chore in itself.  He’s trying to fun after a toy while I’m trying to put his pants on.  I gave up on trying to put a button down shirt on him as soon as he started walking. I want him to look cute and put together but I want it to be easy to do. 

I received a cute skull burst belt and wrist cuff for my toddler to review from Bugalug. The belt was very easy to pt on my toddler thread it through a loop and snap in place.  The matching skull burst wrist cuff is a toddler accessory I hadn’t seen before.  Again it was easy to apply.  My toddler marveled at the wrist cuff for a while.  He figured out how to take it off in about 5 min.  It would be great to put on him for, say a trip to the doctor’s office though.  I think it would be a source of entertainment. 

Here is my little guy looking like a miniature rock star in his Bugalug skull burst belt and matching skull burst wrist cuff.

The belt is reversible too.  The other side is a black and white checkered pattern.  The belt is stretchy too so it would be easy to use during potty training.  The wrist cuff is made from recycled materials. 

Bugalug also sells other accessories for your little ones like: cinch clips to cinch the was of your child’s skirt or pants or use as mitten keepers, a variety of hair accessories as well as belts and wrist cuffs for both boys and girls, and “soother savers”  what i would call: patsy keepers. 

There are so many cute designs.  The prices are great.  The belts would certainly give your toddler or preschooler more independence with their dressing compared to typical buckle belts. 

Check out Bugalug’s website to see all the cute products and designs for yourself: http://bugalug.ca
