Haul Saturdays - Volume 15

Welcome to Volume 15 of Haul Saturdays - a weekly post chronicling whatever beauty related purchases I made throughout that week.

This week I didn't think I would have much of anything to show you guys but I dropped by Winners last night and came across a treasure of Color Club Collection sets. They were all so cheap that I couldn't pass any of them up! They also had a small selection of China Glaze so I grabbed a few of those as well.

Also, I'm slowly trying to get all of the China Glaze polishes from the OMG collection that I missed out on without paying ridiculous prices and whenever I come across them on eBay for retail (or less), I snag them up.





Winners:
• Color Club Untamed Luxury (Indulgence) set (unfortunately they didn't have the Diamonds set)
• Color Club Wild At Heart set
• Color Club Pardon My French set
• Color Club Poptastic set
• Color Club All About Color set (this doesn't seem to be an actual collection so I'm guessing that it's just 7 colours from the brand's base set)
• China Glaze Reggae to Riches and B-Girlz polishes

eBay:
• China Glaze IDK and LOL polishes

Shopper's Drug Mart:
• Marc Jacobs Daisy perfume

See pictures of all of the Color Club sets after the jump.

Haul Saturdays (on Wednesday) - Volume 14 (MAC Venomous Villains)

Welcome to Volume 13 of Haul Saturdays - a weekly post chronicling whatever beauty related purchases I made throughout that week.

I'm posting this volume of Haul Saturdays a few days early to coincide with the release of the much anticipated MAC Venomous Villains Collection.

This week was a big haul week for me because fortunately, my birthday is coming up so my parents and boyfriend were nice enough to give me birthday money ahead of time so that I could get everything I wanted from this collection. They were also kind enough to let me keep my goodies as soon as they arrived so I'll have swatches up later this evening.

Anyway, here's the haul:
(I'm going to break this up into the individual collections, just to make it easier. Also, nothing from the Dr. Facilier part of the collection interested me so there's only 3 parts of the collection below.)



Cruella De Vil
• Lipstick - Heartless
• Lipglass - Wicked Ways and Devishly Stylish
• Eyeshadow - De-vil
• Beauty Powder - Her Own Devices

Evil Queen:
• Lipglass - Strange Potion and Hot House
• Eyeshadow - Vile Violet and Vainglorious
• Blush - Bite of an Apple
• Beauty Powder - Oh So Fair

Maleficent:
• Lipstick - Dark Deed
• Lipglass - Revenge is Sweet and Wrong Spell
• Mineralize Eyeshadow - My Dark Magic and She Who Dares
• Beauty Powder - Briar Rose
• Nail Lacquer - Bad Fairy

Like I said above, swatches will be up later tonight! Read Full...
