Black Friday Haul!

When I came home from Black Friday shopping, it made me sick to think about how much I had spent...
And then I organized what I had bought into piles, I actually hadn't bought that much for myself!  I had bought quite a few presents for people, and my family had me buying things for them since they weren't going shopping.  So I will even be paid back part of what I spent!
Maybe if I keep rationalizing it, I will start to actually believe it...

Walmart
Fuzzy Socks - These are literally my favorite things ever, they are so soft! These were about $5
Two Disney Story Books - I got a Bedtime stories book and a Christmas stories book, these were $6 each and I am going to save them for my kids of day to go with the set I already have!
Washcloths - You know, college prep! They were about $2
Sports Bra - Such a pretty color, and only $5!
Lotion - This wasn't on sale, but I've been wanting it a while, so why not! This was about $10

Belks
Necklace - This was so pretty and I've been looking for a new long necklace! This was $6.60

Ulta
It's a 10 - I was so excited, because this was actually free with any purchase, and is normally $17.96!!
Hand and Face Wipes - These were a dollar, and the only reason I even got them was so my friend could finish out her 5 for $5, but they smell good!

Rue 21
Layered Necklace - This is a gorgeous necklace that I got for only $2.79! Rue 21 jewelry isn't the best quality, but it's super cute!
North Carolina Necklace - This was one of the few things I bought all night that wasn't on sale, but I have been wanting one for a while and it was only $5.99.
Underooos! - They were on sale for either $1 or $2, but I'm not gonna show them...
"A" - Since when did Rue 21 get cute decor?? I got this cute wooden "A" for $1.20
Lights - I have been looking at these, but they aren't that long and aren't cheap for the quality they are.  They look like tiny dew drop lights on copper wire, and I found a set on sale for $3.20!
Pillowcases - One says "LO" and the other says "VE", cute right? They were only $2.40!

Ross
Jewelry Holder - Also not on sale, but super cute!! This was only $6.99
Basket for Lippies - My lip product have been overflowing, so I got an adorable new white basket to keep them in!

Overall it was a really fun trip, where we didn't get home until 4 in the morning!  I really love everything I bought for me, as well as the presents for other people!

Homemade Beauty... Banana Sugar Body Scrub

You will need... 1 ripe banana 3 tablespoons granulated sugar ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract or your favorite essential oil (optional) Smash ingredients together with a fork into a chunky goop, but don't over-mash or it will become too thin to use. If you want a banana scrub for your face, reserve some of the banana and mash it separately without sugar. In the shower, pat the sugar mixture and gently massage over your body. For your face, gently massage plain banana there, avoiding the eye area. Rinse off with warm water. Credit to  http://www.treehugger.com/organic-beauty/8-homemade-salt-and-sugar-body-scrubs.html

How to Clean Your Makeup Brushes

So you could buy the expensive (and pointless) makeup brush cleaner from insanely expensive makeup companies (MAC!), oooooor you can make your own! :) You will need: dish soap or  Johnson's Baby Shampoo olive oil a plate water  paper towels or a dish towel  dirty, dirty, DIRTY makeup brushes The soap is going to remove the bacteria, grease, and color left on your brushes while the olive oil helps to condition the brush bristles and keep them from drying out. First , add equal parts of the oil and soap onto a plate. Start with about a teaspoon of each, then add more as you go along, if needed.  Next , swirl your dirty brush in the mixture. You will see all the leftover makeup start to flush itself out of the brush.  After you’ve swirled it around for 10 seconds or so, rinse the brush in lukewarm water to get all of the soap out. Continue to rinse until the water runs clear and the brush is no longer soapy. **Make sure not t...
