DEAL ALERT: Revlon Whipped Foundation and Kissable Balm Stain

I've been hearing a lot of good things about these 2 new products from Revlon and so I just had to try them. Fortunately, there's a gread deal going on right now for both. If you have a CVS in your area then you're in luck. Right now you can get the new Revlon Colorstay Whipped Creme Foundation and the Just BittenKissable Balm Stain for a pretty awesome price. Here's how:

Spend $15 on Revlon Cosmetics and get $6 Extra Care Bucks (if you're not familiar with CVS, Extra care bucks is money/credit you earn on certain items that you buy and it prints out with your receipt at the end of the transaction)

Buy Revlon Colorstay whipped foundation- Sale Price $9.49
and Revlon Kissable Balm Stain - Sale price $6.99
Total: $16.48
Use a $2 off Revlon Foundation coupon you can print out here:www.coupons.com and a

You will end up paying $13.48 but getting $6 extra care bucks
GRAND TOTAL: $7.48 ....not bad considering the foundation is regularly $11.99 and the lip balm $7.99 at target or walmart.

JUST WANT TO SHARE....Earth day freebies and my new store

First of all, I just wanted to let you know that I have just opened a shop on Etsy http://www.etsy.com/shop/luvabowsboutique. Pls. stop by and check out all the hair accessories and jewelry I have created.

Next thing I wanted to share was some freebies for earth day, which is tomorrow, April 22, 2012.

TARGET - free reusable bag while supplies last http://sites.target.com/site/en/spot/page.jsp?title=EarthDay2012

JOANN FABRIC AND CRAFT STORE - The first 50 customers at every Jo-Ann store will receive a free tote bag

ORIGINS - get a full size moisturizer if you bring any skincare bottle/jar (full or empty). Complete this form and bring it to any origins counter http://www.origins.com/cms/special_offers/in_store_trade_in_20120422.tmpl

DISNEY STORE - free reusable bag when you bring in 5 plastic bags to be recycled. I did this last year and this is what my girls used as their beach/swimming bag during the summer.

T.J.MAXX is TheBalm (Deal & Swatches)

I just had to share these amazing finds . I was at T.J.Maxx last week when I stumbled upon these sets by TheBalm. If you're familiar with this brand then you would know that they

make good cosmetics but that they tend to be on the pricier side. You can check out their products and prices on their website http://www.thebalm.com/ or at http://www.sephora.com/. A blush or a bronzer would normally cost you about $19 so imagine the look on my face when I found a set of 3 for .....TANTADADAN.....$9.99.  That's 83% off!!! Ok enough talk, here are the pictures and swatches.

 

Hot Mama is a beautiful pinky-peach shadow/blush with a hint of gold shimmer in it. This reminds me of Milani Luminous Blush which a lot of people say is similar to NARS Orgasm.

 

 Bahama Mama is a matte bronzer that has no orange undertones.  I love this because it won't make you look like an Oompa Loompa.

Sexy Mama is a translucent powder perfect for setting your foundation. It has tiny, oil-absorbing spheres that remove shine

Hot Mama, Bahama Mama 

The second set I got is called "Fake It Don't Bake It". It includes 4 different TheBalm products and also cost $9.99.

Betty-Lou Manizer is an all-in-one bronzer, shimmer and eyeshadow.



Frat Boy is a smooth peachy-apricot  shadow/blush. This looks matte in the pan but when swatched you will notice a pearly sheen to it.

The Balm Shelter tinted lip gloss in Valley girl  with SPF 17. This is the only product in the set that did not impress me.

Baby Buki is a mini kabuki brush that comes in a plastic case. I really thought this was going to go straight to the trash but I was pleasantly surprised to find that this brush is soft and perfectly sized for my makeup bag.
