Sally Beauty Supply and Marshalls Hauls

Hello my MJF stars,
I have some hauls from Sally Beauty Supply and Marshalls which I found some really good deals. Let's get into what I found and could not pass up.


Since I need to color my two inches of regrowth of my hair I decided that I need to pick up a brush and tinting bowl to make it easier on me. I also had a 20% off coupon too. So I got Salon Care Wide brush for $1.19 with coupon. They Salon Care Tint Bowl was $2.08. 


I also looked at the clearance and they had this China Glaze polish that I had to have which was IDK that is purple holographic. It was $4.71 with coupon.



I then went to Marshalls and looked at the makeup and found two things I could not pass up. As you can see I found the Anastasia  Beverly Hills Subculture eyeshadow palette. I was so happy to find the last one untouched for $19.99. I don't own any thing from Anastasia and thought I would never because it was too expensive. This palette was sold at $42.00. I know there was some drama around this palette but for this price and it's so pretty not to give it a try. I also found more Makeup Revolution products. I saw the Pink Fizz Chocolate palette, so I opened it up and the colors called my name. If you been following me you know I love Makeup Revolution and the Chocolate palettes are one of my favorites. They are usually $15.00 each so I had to get the Pink Fizz for $6.99.


I also got this Nooks Star ball by Planet Dog for Jack and it was on sale for $2.00. He also loves this ball and It's made with good tough rubber that he can't destroy.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my hauls.

99 Cents Only Store and Dollar Tree Hauls

Hello my MJF stars,
I have two hauls from 99 Cents Only Store and Dollar Tree that I wanted to share. Let's get  into what I found this time.


I need more toothpaste so I picked up Colgate sparkling white in mint zing. I also got a bottle of Mucus Relief by Health A2Z. Since I really liked the LED light magic that picked up before and decided to pick up another one. It's was $2.99.


99 Cents Only Store got more of the Smoke & Mirrors makeup in and when I saw this pretty Mega Glow Highlighter in Starburst. I had to get it to try. I also found more of the Sally Hansen Pearl Crush polish. I don't own Claim Digger and thought it was too pretty to pass up. I also found some NYX Chunky Dunk lip color and never tried them. For $.99 I thought I pick up two to try which was Orange Splash and Run Punch.


I then stopped at Dollar Tree and found few thing. I picked another Hummingbird feeder since the one from last year is getting faded. I was so happy find some Scooby-Doo movies since I love Scooby-Doo. I got Scooby-Doo Franken Creepy since I never seen it. I also saw all of the Saint Patricks Socks. I saw theses one and had to get them.


They had the Herbal Cough drops that I like that similar to Ricola by Assured so I picked up two bags.

Products I used: 
Sally Hansen Double Duty Base & Top Coat
Essie Dressed To The Nineties 
Essie Knee-high Life
Jordana Quick Shine Top Coat 

I decided to wear two polishes from the Essie Fall Collection that I got at Burlington a while ago. When I saw this set I really wanted to wear Dressed To The Nineties. It's a deep purple with green-blue shimmer so pretty. I thought Knee-High Life would look nice with Dress To The Nineties. Knee-High Life was also in this collection. Knee-High Life is a deep wine red with purple undertones. I'm not big fan of red polishes but the purple undertones grabbed me. They both have a nice formula. The only thing is that I wish Dress To The Nineties shimmer came through more but not a big deal breaker. I really like both polishes and I love how this mani came out. I will definitely be wear both polishes again.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks mani.

Jcpenney Haul

Hello my MJF stars,
Since I need a jacket and I had a Jcpenney gift card that I got for Christmas. I decided to go Jcpenney and I also found other stuff that I couldn't pass up.


 I did look up what jackets they had online before going to the store to make sure they had my size in store. I was going to order online but wanted to try them on because I never wore or bought puffer jacket but always wanted one but thought it wouldn't look right on my body. I tried on two different types of jackets in Women's plus size but the one I got was the Xersion lightweight puffer jacket. I usually get black or blue but when I tried on this Mysterious purple I fell in love with this color. It does not make me look like a blob/or marshmallow. They cut on this jacket is very flattering. It was $100.00 but it was on sale for $39.00 and I had a coupon so it was $35.45.


I was looking at the clearance section. I saw this winter sweater of BB8 and when I saw it I wanted it. I was so happy it was a XXL and it fits me perfectly and it as makes BB8 sound too.  It was $64.00 but it was on sale for $9.59 and with my coupon it was $8.50. I can't wait to wear it next Christmas or might have to wear it before Christmas it's so cute.


I also need a new body pillow so I saw this Mink Sherpa body pillow and had to have it. I got the navy and it was on sale $24.99 and with coupon it was $22.15.


I also got some mix it tech gloves they were on sale for $3.99 and with coupon it was $3.54. I also got two Christmas socks. I got the snow reindeer for $1.85 and llama knee high for $.39 with coupon.

I'm really happy with what I hauled and that I got some really good deals.

99 Cents Only Store and Big 5 Sporting Goods Hauls

Hello my MJF stars,
I have two hauls from 99 cents only and Big 5 sporting goods to share with you. So let's get into what I hauled.


Since all of the Christmas items was half off I picked up few things. I got some Christmas cards for next year.


I also got two cookie containers in two different designs.




I got two of the Christmas Led pillows which I wanted but never picked up because they was $5.99 each and since they were on sale for $2.99 each. I could not pass them up. 


I need more unscented tea light and found these 50 count bags for $1.99 each so I got two bags.


I found these planters signature whole cashews and since I like cashews I figured I pick up two one in Maple mesquite bbq and one in Vanilla bean to try. They are pretty good. The flavors not over powerful which is good thing. I probably pick them up again if I see them. I also got more of the Xtra Care shave cream in tropic wave that I like. I found more if the vaseline lip therapy lip balm so I picked up the aloe vera one since I didn't try this scent yet.


This last thing is from Big 5 sporting goods which I went because they had Muk Luks slippers on sale for $14.99. I was so happy find my size and color I wanted which was the last one. The color is black/white/gray and I also had a coupon for 10% off which was even better. They are so soft and comfy.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my hauls.
