Birthday Beauty Haul

Thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday - it really made my day! (It was on the 20th, by the way. ;) I had an amazing time, and received some even more amazing gifts from my boyfriend and his family! I've been eager to share what I got, so without further ado, here's my beautiful birthday haul!


Neutrogena Healthy Skin Rejuvenator

This item is a must-have for me - an at-home microdermabrasion kit! It's a little pricy for a drugstore item, but claims to be even more effective than professional treatments. We'll see how true that is!



Estée Lauder pleasures exotic Eau de Parfum Spray

This beautiful fragrance combines notes of mango passion fruit cocktail, pink grapefruit, hibiscus, bougainvillea, and other delightful fruity and floral scents to create a fun, tropical blend. It's flirty, fun, and casual, and I love wearing it out!

Earth Therapeutics Slumber Party Kit

This set is such a great idea for me because I've been having a hard time sleeping lately! It's from a brand I hadn't heard of before, but I love it already. The kit includes an eye compress, sleep mask, comforting lotion, and pillow mist to help you relax, get to sleep, and stay asleep. What a fantastic idea! I feel it's helped me already.

Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler

I finally have a great eyelash curler?! It's true! I wondered what all the hype was about with this one, but so far, I've been very impressed. No more pinching, tugging, or struggling while curling my lashes - and they're perfect the first time. Love it! I wonder if a budget equivalent exists right now? If so, I want to find it!





OPI Nail Lacquer in Yoga-ta Get This Blue and Royal Rajah Ruby

Two super-gorgeous shades of blue and red from the OPI India collection. The deep blue is a perfect shimmery sapphire, and the red is a rich, dark burgundy that I adore. I'll be sporting both these shades eventually in Nail of the Day features, so look for those soon!

Best of Stila Set

This amazing set has been on my wishlist for months and is permanently sold out at nearly every ULTA, including online! It includes full-size versions of Stila's best products - illuminating tinted moisturizer, convertible lip and cheek color, convertible eye color, lip glaze, mascara, and Kitten eyeshadow! I can't wait to play with all this.

Thanks for letting me share my little haul. I know, it's a little sad that I did not receive a lot of actual makeup! But I love everything, and that's what counts. :) I had a fantastic day!
