Haul: Complexion Bar, Vitamins and Books!

I picked this stuff up over the last week. I know I’m probably way behind in reading the two books I’ve purchased; Water for Elephants, and Eat, Pray, Love. I’ve wanted to read these two books for the longest time. I just never got around to picking them up until Wednesday.

I started reading Water for Elephants first, and so far so good. I find myself cracking up (laughing loudly) in public while reading. I haven’t gotten too far into it, so I can’t really say too much about it.

What are you reading now?

Have you read any of these books? If so, how did you like (or not like) them?

What the vitamins look like

The Vitamins, I’ve used for over a year now. For $22.99, you get a 30-day supply of calcium, a daily multi-vitamin, omega-3’s, and a hair, skin & nails supplement too.  It has all the nutrients for the day, it’s organic, it keeps your energy up,  and it’s so convenient.  I think that’s a good deal, and they seem to work for me.  I did notice my hair & nails grow faster since taking these.  I do feel sluggish if I miss a day or two of not taking them.

You can purchase the NUTRILITE Women’s Supplement Pack by CLICKING HERE.

I’m always looking for skin care products to try to help improve my complexion, which is why I purchased the BODY SERIES Glycerine & Honey Complexion Bar ($4.50/ 3 bars).   I sometimes give myself the honey & aspirin mask many of you have probably seen it done on youtube or on other beauty blogs, so I figured, why not try this?   Plus, you get 3 bars for $4.50, great value if you ask me.  I will definitely let you all know how I like this product in a few weeks.

Description: The perfect mild alternative for teens and those with sensitive skin. With two conditioners and a gentle cleanser.

[Other] Ingredients:
Sodium Tallowate, Sodium Cocoate, Water, Glycerin, Sucrose, Alcohol Denat. Sodium Stearate, Fragrance, Honey, Pentasodium Pentetate, Tetrasodium Etidronate, D&C Yellow No. 10 (CI 47005), D&C Red No. 33 (CI 17200).

Are you taking any vitamins?

Do you find they help?

If you’re not taking them, why not?

FTC Disclosure: I purchased all of these products with my own money.  My boyfriend is an Amway Global Independent Business Owner whom I purchased some of these products from.

Avon Haul (Picture Heavy)

I’ve been meaning to do this post for a while now. I purchased these products a while ago from my Mom who is an Avon Representative.  

I’ve used their FootWorks Products many times before for my at home pedicures (see this post).  Avaon had a promotion where you got 2 Overnight Lavendar Foot Creams, 1 Foot Mask, 1 Lavendar Foot Soak, and a pumice stone.  I can’t remember the price, but it was a good deal.

 

These are cosmetics I purchased from them. 

 

The eyshadows are not too pigmented.  You definitely need to use a base, and pack on the shadows to see the color. (Top Row: No base; Middle Row: UDPP; Bottom Row: NYX E/S Base in White)

 

Mascara’s, Lip pencils, Glazewear Etc…

Lip Pencils

Eye Pencils

Glazewears $1.99 Each

 

I will swatch the products I purchased in a later post.

Do you use Avon Products?

If so, which ones? How do you like them?
