Look Book: Thrift and Drugstore Haul

This week has been so fun. I watched a different movie every night before bed (surprisingly they all took place in New York), and each day I did something different (thats a big change from the routine school days that happen all year).

The week was filled with things like sleep, karaoke, massages, shopping, eating, exercising (yes, I exercised), and more shopping.

I ended up going thrift shopping on Wednesday. I have never been good at thrift shopping ( I usually only find one thing I like if any), but this week I got lucky. I left the store with 6 tops (all pictured below), and a pair of athletic shorts that would normally cost around $30 but I got them for $2!

On a different day, I spent about an hour in CVS and bought some really great makeup products that I have had my eyes on. I have already used them!

anyways, enough explanations, here is my thrift and drugstore haul.

And this is me wearing my new eye products:

Beauty: Lush Haul

I have to make a confession. Even though I have gone into the store plenty of times, this is the first time I have ever actually bought anything from Lush. I have heard so many great things about their products, but whenever I walk into one of the stores I get overwhelmed and I can never decide what to get. I also have never been a bath person till recently, so I am not very experienced in the bath-products departments. But a few months ago my mom gave me a gift card to Lush that she wasn't going to use and told me to spend it on my own. After doing a bunch of browsing online I ordered a bunch of products, and I am so so so excited to try them all out. Here are some of the products I got.

Blackberry Bath Bomb

Twilight Bath Bomb

Sakura Bath Bomb

Bubblegrub Bubble Bar

A French Kiss Bubble Bar

Dreamtime Bath Melt

MMM Melting Marshmallow Moment Bath Melt

Stepping Stone Foot Scrub

Bonus: Trichomania Shampoo

Beauty: My Lipstick Collection

A few weeks ago I was going through my makeup. I opened my lipstick drawer, and was startled to see that I have accumulated over a dozen products that I barely ever used.
Now I get how hard it is to buy lipstick. When you go to purchase some, there is really no way to know what the color will actually look like, or if it will look any good on you. It's a real struggle.

So, I decided to finally use all of my products, and put them on to show you what I use and what products actually look like when put on. Some products are better quality than others, and this test will show that exactly.
