Vacation Haul


I recently got three whole weeks off from work and went to Washington state on the train and stayed for 2 weeks, then flew to Massachusetts to see my lovely boyfriend for a week. This past week has been the best by far this summer, I missed my boyfriend quite a lot and it was nice to be able to see where he grew up. We did lots of fun stuff, like shop and eat and watch Netflix. We went to the Museum of Science in Boston, as well as the New England Aquarium. I can't wait til it is time to move back to school so I can see him all the time :)
As I mentioned above, we shopped quite a lot. Hence this post. Some of this stuff I got in the two days I was home between the two trips and the day since I've returned, but most of this was from one day of shopping in Natick. 

Wet'n'Wild How I Met Your Magenta, WnW Hannah Pinktana, WnW Blue Wants to Be a Millionaire, WnW Party of Five Glitters, Diamond Dry Top Coat
These names are ridiculous, but I couldn't resist. They were BOGO free at Kmart, so I ended up getting all four for $4. The Diamond Dry was free with the purchase of two China Glazes at Sally's. I got my boyfriend's sisters each a bottle of nail polish in the little goodie bags I put together for them (CG Rich & Famous and CG Spontaneous, if you were curious), so I figured why not get some free top coat. It is actually pretty nice, too. I put it on top of my pedi and it lasted all week and looked great before I took it off earlier today.

Wet'n'Wild Wild Shine black, Wet'n'Wild Sweet as Candy Eye Palette
These were at Big Lots. The polish was only a dollar and the palette was a whopping $3. I lucked out :)
The Body Shop Body Butter in Strawberry, Vanilla Duo, and Wild Cherry
I got the Strawberry and Vanilla at The Body Shop, on sale 2/$25. We then went to Marshall's, where I found the Wild Cherry for $7. Oh well. I love this stuff with all my heart.
Bath and Body Works Candle Strawberry Patch, B&BW Vanilla Verbena Candle, B&BW Stress Relief Vanilla Verbena Massage Oil, B&BW Japanese Cherry Blossom Triple Moisture Body Cream
My boyfriend actually picked all of this Bath and Body Works stuff. He even gave me a nice massage with the oil when we got home. He's the best :) The candles and massage oil were 50% off, and the body cream was 75% off. I'm training him well ;)
B&BW Anti Bac Hand Gel in (top to bottom, left to right) Sweet Petals, S'Mores, Rockin' Cotton, Studly Apple, Blueberry Pancake, Apple Pie and Orange Sapphire, B&BW Lotion in Country Chic
The Anti Bacs ended up being only 37 cents each, which is a good deal. The lotion was 75% off, don't judge me for buying lotion I don't really like.
ELF Powder Brush, Schick Hydro 5 travel pack, Herbal Essences Touchably Soft Shampoo, Olay Cream Scrub, Sally Hansen InstaDry in Blue-Away, Burt's Bees Rejuvenating lip balm with Acai. The black ELF brushes are amazing. For three dollars, you get a soft, nicely washable, dense brush that you can easily replace.  
Cute Earrings from Claire's (I'm wearing the missing pair, which are hearts), Secret Soothing Effects Deodorant/Antiperspirant in Invigorating Rain
The earrings are a little childish, but I love animals. Like, a lot.

That's all of it (I think). I'm very happy with all my purchases :) I'm also very excited because I just ordered my first BirchBox. It says they are shipping July 15th, and I can hardly wait!
