You know how it’s impossible to go to Target and only buy one thing? That’s kind of how am I with the drugstore- I’ll go in with one or two items on my list and leave with a bunch of extra stuff (usually beauty bits). I get coupons for my local CVS emailed to me, so I like to take advantage whenever there’s a good deal (which is all the time). Today I thought I’d share a few beauty products that I’ve picked up over the last few weeks thanks to some good coupons. If you’ve tried any of these things, let me know what you thought of them in the comments below. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
P.S. I’m thinking of talking about one of my favorite subjects in the next video- books! Any interest?
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!

It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]

Got to love the cvs coupons – they always draw me in too! Love the polishes you picked up!
Chic on the Cheap
Thanks Lydia! Yes, and I love that you can earn rewards on beauty purchases too :)
Really great beauty products, and I love your hair on this video!
Thank you so much Maru! :)
Love Maybelline’s Falsies. I’ll have to try those Rimmel Salon polishes since you loved them so much.
P.S. Definitely do a video about books!
I really do love those nail polishes- I would definitely recommend them. Yay, thanks for your feedback Kim! I worked on a little one over the weekend and it should be up soon :)
