Victoria's Secret Pink: Boyfriend Hoodie Review!

Here's how this story begins. As I stated in a recent post, I had made 2 orders online with Victoria's Secret. The first order I made Feb 13th. I ordered 2 thermal raglans. The second order I made Feb 14th. I ordered a pullover hoodie. Both of my orders were for clearance items. I was lucky enough to get the raglans in my size and the colors I wanted. They were originally $24.50, I got 2 tops for $6.99 each! I picked pink and light green in size small. I was even more excited about the hoodie because I ordered it the same day they posted it, so all the colors and sizes were available. Originally $25, I got it for $14.99! I picked the neon pink in size medium. I was so excited when my orders came the same day (Feb 20th), I tore right into them! The first package I opened were my beautiful raglans! The second was SUPPOSED to be my hoodie, but it was someone else's order entirely! I was so upset. But they refunded me (originally they were only gonna give me back my money for the hoodie and the tax, but I said it isn't fair to charge me shipping when the hoodie was the only thing on that order. And it isn't my fault they sent me someone else's package!) so I did get a FULL refund, for the hoodie, tax, and shipping. As it should be, since that's only fair. They didn't ask for the top back that they sent me. It's too big for me, so I gave it to my mom. Luckily she likes it a lot lol. Anyway, I was really upset since I wanted that hoodie. I don't have any hoodies anymore. So I went out to the store and used my $10 off a $50 purchase and I got an aqua colored boyfriend hoodie. Not sure why they name things "boyfriend". I assume because they're over-sized? I tried it on in the store (thank goodness!). I usually get a medium in a hoodie since I wear tops under it. The medium in this one though, I was swimming, no drowning, in it! So I took it off and tried the small. It fit much better. It goes passed your butt, so you can wear them with leggings! It doesn't have kangaroo pockets, which I was a little disappointed about, but it's such an awesome hoodie! It feels so soft and is so warm! Full price they're $49.95. I paid roughly $43 after tax with my coupon. If I would have gotten the hoodie I ordered I would have only paid $14.99 though! Oh well, I'm happy with the hoodie I have!

Victoria's Secret Pink: 2/$30 Tee's/Tanks Review!

Yes, I know most of my reviews lately have been for VS lol. But all my most recent stuff has been purchased from them, so lol. I got the 2/$30 tee's and tanks. You can pick between, well, tee's and tanks! They have different tee's though. V-neck, crew neck, tank tops. I picked a dark green v-neck (which will be PERFECT for St. Patrick's Day! Or whenever, it's so pretty!) and I WANTED this black crew neck tee with leopard print on the breast pocket, but I got it's sister instead since they only had 2 of those tops and they were both size medium. They had small in the sister top. It's a white crew neck with black cheetah print on the breast pocket. Too cute! They're $19.50 a piece, so the 2/$30 is a pretty good deal! The last time I really went clothes shopping was back in high school, and I'm 25 now lol. So I guess the reason I've been buying so many new clothes, is because I need some grown up clothes! lol. I am fortunate my high school sweats and t-shirts still fit me =), but I can't wear them all the time lol. Normally save that for running errands. If you haven't been by VS lately, you should go check out their new tops and other stuff!

Victoria's Secret Fantasies: Aqua Kiss Review!

I'm normally more partial to sweet or food smelling scents. Those are my favorites. However, I absolutely fell in love with Aqua Kiss. It's a fresh/floral scent, but it's amazing! Rain kissed freesia and daisy. I normally don't like floral's at all! But I'm always willing to smell all kinds of scents lol. I'm currently using the Aqua Kiss body butter. I've never used VS's body butters before, I didn't realize how thick they are! It's fantastic! I love thick butters since my skin is on the dryer side. I also have eczema, but I don't put this on it. I use different lotions with little to no fragrance for that. I typically wear fragrances pure. Meaning, the way it smells in the bottle/tube/jar, is how it smells on my skin. I think only once did a lotion smell different on my skin than in the bottle. I'm very grateful for that! lol. I know a lot of people who are like, "Ah! This lotion smells so good in the bottle, but smells like BO on me!" lmao. If you like fresh/floral's, you should check out Aqua Kiss!

Victoria's Secret Pink: Large Tote Bag Review!

Recently VS came out with the cutest tote bags! I saw them online, then in the store. When I went into the store (Thursday), I was there to get a hoodie. I also wasn't looking to spend that much money. Yesterday though, me and my mom went to get our taxes done. I'm getting a bigger refund than I was expecting. So even though it won't be here for 2-3 weeks, I went ahead and got what I wanted at VS today. I did 2/$30 and got a white crew neck top with black cheetah print on the pocket and a dark green v-neck. I also got the tote! And I saw this really cute water bottle. It's clear with black zebra print and says "PINK" on it. It's big and it has one of those tops where you pull the thing up to be able to drink. It reminds me of those water bottles people use when they go biking. Anywho! The tote is what this review is about. I got the "Ultra Aqua" color. It's so gorgeous! That one and the "Gypsy Rose" were the 2 I  liked most. They have other colors too: Dark blue, light pink, orange, etc. Different stores probably have different selections. Online they have a few to choose from. Just click here to see the colors. I really like the tote. It feels like a good quality. It's also nice and big. It'd be a great overnight bag, laundry bag, grocery bag, etc. It has a large pocket on the inside too. It feels very durable. I like it a lot! My store said they only got 2 of that color in and weren't sure if they were getting more. I'm so glad I got it while I could! If you have a bit of a drive, or just don't want to waste gas, I would call to ask if they have in stock what you're looking for. I did that before I left. I didn't want to waste my gas driving up there if they didn't have what I wanted in stock. Happy shopping!

Sephora Formula X: Hyped Review!

For Christmas I got a gift card to Sephora. I used it to buy some nail polish. I went with the Formula X Sephora brand since the rest were all designer and really highly priced. Formula X wasn't that greatly priced either. I only managed to get 2 with my $25 gift card. I do enjoy the ones I got. I got Celestial and Hyped. I put Hyped on last night. Base coat, 2 coats of polish, and my top coat. I really like the color. On their site they call it an "electric magenta". It looks more on the purple side to me though. It's really pretty. I think I like Celestial better, but Hyped is really pretty too. The brushes are small. I prefer Sally Hansen's brushes on her Insta-Dri and Triple Shine polishes. It's not that big of a deal though. I probably wouldn't use my own money to purchase these polishes again. I mean if I get another gift card, sure lol. $12.50 for Celestial and $10.50 for Hyped. I just think that's ridiculous for nail polish. Especially when I don't see how these polishes are better than Sally Hansen polishes. They last the exact same length of time and I'm sure Sally has similar colors. I wouldn't recommend this polish unless you're okay with spending that kind of money on it or if you get a gift card or something.

Forever 21 Leggings Review!

For Valentine's Day my boyfriend got me roses, a beautiful vase, a card, and a gift card to Forever 21. So sweet. When Forever 21 first opened, me and my mom loved that store. They changed their style after some time though and I wasn't a huge fan anymore. Until I made my online order, I hadn't gotten anything from Forever 21 in years. I ordered 3 pairs of leggings, a cute tote bag, and a little notebook (to get me as close to $25 as I could get). I couldn't believe the prices! Really amazing pricing. I got 2 ankle length leggings in black and light grey for $3.80 a piece. I also got a pair of cropped leggings in a deep grey color, also for $3.80! The tags when they arrived said $5.80 though, so I guess I got them on sale lol. I love the leggings! They're really comfortable and c-u-t-e! They feel like good quality. And 60% cotton. Very breathable. I think I like the cropped ones the most just because the color is so pretty! I really like the light grey and black also though. They had other colors too, some were a little outrageous. Like hot pink, blue, neon green lol. I would recommend these leggings for sure. Good quality and amazing price! I mean Victoria's Secret has leggings that range from like $25-$50. I do love my VS leggings though and I did get them on a good deal. But how can you beat $3.80!!!! lol. You can check them out here to see what you think! Happy shopping!

Victoria's Secret Pink: Thermal Raglan Review!

So I finally received my orders today. I made 2 orders last week. 1 order was 2 Thermal Raglan's and the other was a pullover hoodie. Let me start this review with saying I am never ordering from VS online AGAIN! EVER! They sent me the Raglans, but when I opened the package that was SUPPOSED to be my hoodie, it was someone else's order. Omg, you have to be kidding me?! Never in my life have I EVER gotten someone else's order! I am absolutely outraged. And since they were clearance items, they're gone now so they can't replace my hoodie with MY HOODIE! They could only refund me, and of course they didn't give me back the shipping. So I don't really get a FULL refund. Which I think is wrong! They sent me someone's long sleeve shirt that's not my size, so even if I wanted to wear it (which I DON'T!) I couldn't! So be very careful ordering from them. They clearly don't give a crap about their customers or who gets what merchandise. I may not even go into the store anymore. Really before this addiction lately, I hadn't been in there in months. And I'd only go in to use my free coupons, not to buy anything. I think I'm done with them. They did me dirty in my opinion. Clearly me and the other customer didn't matter enough to them to make sure the correct order went to the correct place.

As for the Thermal Raglan's. I like them. They're longer than I expected them to be (they go to my hips) and I picked very pretty colors. I like the material too. If I weren't so unhappy with the company I would have more to say, but honestly. I'm so angry!

Victoria's Secret Pink: Sporty Tee Review!

As you've seen in my other VS posts, I've been obsessed with them lately! It all started when I got my $10 off a purchase coupon for my birthday. I decided I wanted a top and I ended up with my neon/hot pink Slouchy Raglan Tee. I went back 2 more times to take advantage of their 2/$40 deal. Which included Slouchy Raglan's, Sporty Tee's, and Fashion Leggings. The second time I went in I ended up with my neon/hot pink Sporty Tee and a pair of Fashion Leggings with a lacy waste. I really like the Sporty Tee. It's a pretty basic shirt. It has long sleeves and 2 white lines on each sleeve. It has a line under the collar too and of course the VS dog. This shirt is really comfortable, but for me, it's really tight in the sleeves. I'm not sure why. I got size small, because I am a size small. It fits me just fine in the torso. Obviously the Raglan fits really well in the sleeves since it's "slouchy" so it doesn't fit real close to the body. The Sporty Tee is perfect for sports get together's, a sporting event, or any reason! Since it's so cute!

VictoriasSecret.com Review!

I'm a huge fan of shopping online. I love that you can browse in your pajama's, in your bed, with a hot cup of cocoa. I also love that the things you order come directly to your house for you. Of course, the only downside is the waiting. But you usually don't even have to wait very long. While I like the VS website, I find it a little annoying that the things I'm finding online are different from what I'm finding in stores. For example, before work Sunday I had some time to kill, so I went into VS. I saw the cutest (and softest!) hoodie ever! It's $49.95, so I was thinking I'd like to use it with my $10 off a $50 purchase coupon. Later that night I was telling my cousin about it and I got online to try to find it so I could take a pic of it. But it wasn't on the website. I guess it's not that big of a deal. I mean I don't think you can use those coupons online anyway. But I didn't think to take a pic of it when I was in the store lol.
I like how easy it is to navigate their website. I also like that they seem to be updating their clearance section often (probably because they're phasing things out for the new season). The shipping isn't too bad. Standard is $5.99. I don't like that it takes 2-5 days for an order to even leave the warehouse. I find that totally odd! Usually things ship within 24 hours. I know they say it doesn't effect the estimated delivery date, but still lol. I do recommend their website, but I saw on their Facebook that lots of customers overseas experience a lot of problems. So I guess I recommend it to people in the US, but not so much to those overseas, since they seem to have a lot of trouble.

Bath & Body Works New Hand Soap Review!

So they repackaged the soap. The bottles are cool and I like the pump. However they added ingredients to the deep cleansing hand soap like BHT and other chemicals that aren't good to put on your body. The foaming doesn't seem to have the same ingredients. If that is something that bothers you (like it bothers me) then just stick with the foaming. Not sure why all those chemicals were added to the deep cleansing. I hope one day companies realize they don't need to put all those toxins and garbage into things we use (ie. hand soap, lotion, shower gel, shampoo, etc). If anyone knows of an organic hand soap line, please leave me a message! I would much rather use something organic. Now the hand soap itself is okay. The foam does appear to be thicker, yet light and soft too. It leaves your hands feeling nice. I would think the deep cleansing would strip your hands of moisture since it has so many chemicals in it. I would not recommend that soap!

Rimmel London Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara Review!

I got this mascara in my Rimmel London prize pack that I won from the Rose Voxbox. I wore it for Valentine's Day. I was VERY impressed! After one coat it looked like I had fake lashes on! I did two coats. My lashes looked gorgeous! It stayed on very nice for the night; no flaking, no smudging. It wasn't even that hard to get off when I got home. I use Up & Up making removing towelette's. I also squirt some Mary Kay make up removing liquid on it (until I run out) to help get make up off a little easier. Didn't take much more extra effort to get it off either. Just had rub my lashes a little more than I usually do. But it all came off. I'm really glad Influenster gave me the opportunity to try this mascara. Since it's around $8, I probably wouldn't have bought it on my own. Only because this kind of mascara is exaggerated to try to sell it. It usually doesn't do what it's supposed to do. This one is amazing though! I will absolutely buy it in the future!

Victoria's Secret Pink: Slouchy Raglan Tee Review! Part 3

For Valentine's Day, my boyfriend and I went to an art museum. I was excited to finally be able to wear my Raglan! lol. The neon/hot pink color was perfect too! I love how they fit. They're loose and comfortable, yet still sexy and beautiful. I wore it with my fashion leggings and a pair of boots. I think it was one of my best outfits I've worn =). Since your shoulder is out, you get that sexy look. I was a little worried it would look more like I was on my way to the gym! But with the make up I wore and the leggings and boots, it looked very nice. I'm super happy I have 4 of these tops! I LOVE them! I'll be wearing them whenever I can. I saw on victoriassecret.com in the Pink clearance section, they're adding new items everyday (I'm banning myself from the site! I already bought 2 Thermal Raglans for $6.99 each and a really pretty hoodie for $14.99! Steals, but I can't be spending money like that lol). Anyway, I did see some of the Slouchy Raglan Tee's in the clearance section. Looks like some are still part of the 2/$40 deal. I'm gonna include pics of me wearing the top to the end of this review. If it looks like something you'd like, you should check them out before they're gone!

Victoria's Secret Pink: Fashion Leggings Review!

Now I've done their 2/$40 deal a few times =). Total I have 4 Raglan Tee's (1 I used my birthday coupon for), 1 Baseball Tee, and 2 Fashion Leggings. The first pair of leggings I got were a basic black pair with lace around the waist. I absolutely love them! I'm actually wearing them on my date tonight! They're so comfortable and really pretty. I tried them on in the store since I wasn't sure if I should get a small or a medium. The small fit me like a glove! Yet still feels comfortable and I can breathe fine lol. The last 2/$40 deal I did I got another Raglan (in this gorgeous brownish red color) and a pair of fashion leggings. I almost got this pair that looked kind of dull, but had black polka dots down the side of the leg. They looked almost grey though and I think the black would go with more. So I got a pair that looks almost kind of shiny. It's subtle though and it's a nice rich black. They do fit tighter than the other pair do, but I think they'll be fine. Hopefully I don't find them uncomfortable since it's too late to exchange them now. I recommend the deal because it's a decent deal, especially for VS. The Raglan Tee's, Baseball Tee's, and Fashion Leggings are all included. They're all $24.50 full price. There are some online in the clearance section, but I don't find the prices especially impressive. I did order what's called a Thermal Raglan online yesterday. Full price $24.50 on sale for $6.99! That's like a Target priced top! I WAS impressed by that price, so I got one in pink and one in a pretty green color. They look a little short (the other Raglan goes passed your butt). I figure I could wear a tank top underneath though. Can't wait till they ship out! Happy shopping if ya'll are looking to take advantage of some good deals!

Rimmel London Prize Pack from Influenster Review!

This is a first impressions review! I will do separate reviews for each product after I try them. So, a few months ago I got the Rose Voxbox from Influenster (complimentary for testing purposes). I completed all of the brand challenges and I won 2 of them! Yay! I got the Kiss brand prize pack (a nail art kit and press on nails) and also the Rimmel London prize pack! I was most excited for the Rimmel one because you got a lot! Which is exciting, since I honestly haven't used a lot of Rimmel London products. Included in my prize pack was the lash accelerator mascara, 2 lip lacquers (Celestial and Big Bang), and 2 felt tip liners (1 thick & thin and 1 super thin). I'm really excited to try everything! Especially the mascara. I like the brush a lot. I opened everything up right away and tried everything (but the mascara) out on my hand. The liners are awesome. I don't know how I feel about the lacquer in Big Bang. It's a super red color. Celestial is more neutral. I have one of these that I bought on my own and I HATE the taste of them. Absolutely disgusting. So I don't know how often I'll be using the lacquers (or if I'll give them to someone who can stand the taste). Will most certainly be putting the liners and mascara to good use though!

EdealSaving: Amazon Review!

As I've stated in other reviews, I now have a ton of silicone cases I ordered from amazon.com. Most of which I ordered through Cbus. I really like Cbus because their mold is perfect for my Blackberry. It fits perfectly and I can access everything the same (its cut perfectly so I can still charge my phone, use my camera/flash, etc). I saw this really pretty purple case that I HAD to have! EdealSaving were the sellers. I've bought cases from another company before (besides Cbus) and the case didn't fit as well. My phone is black with silver around the edges, Cbus cases cover the silver completely, but this other brand did not. So it doesn't look as good. EdealSaving fits really well. Not quite as good as Cbus, but still good. Only a tiny sliver of silver shows. You can barely even see it. Cbus has a purple case (I own it =D), but it's a deeper purple. The one EdealSaving has is this gorgeous lighter purple. Online it looks really light, almost a dull kind of purple. In person it reminds me of a berry smoothie lol. It's a really nice purple. I like it way better than I did in the pics! I paid $4.49 and it came with a stylus pen. The pen is useless, but I didn't buy it for that (thank goodness...). The string is too short and the pen only works on the track pad. I use my thumb for my track pad. Oh well. I paid $8.98 total, which is still way less than I would be able to get one at the T-Mobile store. So if you're in the market for a case, check out amazon.com first! Just put in your phone type.

Sally Hansen Triple Shine: Pixie Slicks & Twinkled Pink Review!

So of course I had to paint my toe nails for Valentine's Day =). I picked Pixie Slicks because it's a pretty, baby pink. 2 coats and it's perfect! I put Twinkled Pink (which is just a glitter polish) on top of Pixie Slicks on my big toes. Just to make it even more festive! I'm so happy with the results. My toe nails look beautiful =). Like I've said before, I've heard you don't need base/top coats with this polish since it has such good staying power. If you have "oily" nails like I do (not oily to the touch, but have a hard time keeping polish on) you will need it. Nail polish peels right off my finger nails and toe nails. I never paint my finger nails because it lasts maybe an hour tops? Not worth the effort! My toes will stay put for a couple weeks. I used a base coat, 2 coats of color, 1 coat of glitter polish on big toes, and a top coat.

Bath & Body Works: Midnight for Men Review!

In addition to their Forever Midnight, they made a Midnight for Men. They're supposed to blend together and make an unforgettable scent. I don't really care for men's fragrances. Obviously, I wouldn't wear them myself anyway lol. But I just don't like how strong they think men should smell. Very overwhelming. This scent is no different. I also think all the others smell the exact same. I sure don't smell a difference if there is one. If your boyfriend/husband is into heavy scents though, this one would probably be a good one for Valentine's Day.

Walmart Boots Review! Part 2

So I got these boots from Walmart last year. They're brown with white trim, they look exactly like Ugg boots. I've worn them for 2 winters now. They're usually amazing. I was digging my car out of 6 inches of snow the other day and my feet were completely dry when I got back in (and yes I had to bury my feet in the snow! lol). For some reason today when I went to run errands, I was having a really terrible time with them! I'm not sure if it's because the ground was mostly wet today, still with solid snow, but it was mostly just wet. Well my boots soaked through! My socks were soaked when I got home 2 hours later. My feet were totally frozen. I couldn't feel them at all! It was so crazy since, like I said, I've never had problems with them before. I also like them because they were only $12, so it really didn't matter when they would get all dirty. My errand running, car-digging-out boots lol. I really didn't care what happened to them as far as looks go. While I was at Walmart today though, I saw these ADORABLE black ones with grey trim. The very last pair and they were in my size! I was so excited. AND they were on sale for $9! Hopefully I have better luck with these ones. I will of course hang on to my brown ones though. I think I would still suggest them, but BE CAREFUL when water is involved!

Yes To Carrots Daily Moisture Body Lotion Review! Part 2

I have eczema, and I get bad flare ups on my hands during the winter. With the harsh, cold, dry air. My poor hands can't take it. My eczema flares up, my skin gets unbelievably dry! They'll crack and peel. I usually pick a day off of work I have and use this lotion after I wash my hands every single time. By the middle of the day my hands are 100% better! I'm not sure if it's because it's organic, but my skin drinks it right in and I see immediate improvement. Not to mention I feel immediate relief! Which is fantastic! I don't know what I would do without this lotion. It's a true hand saver =). I use this all day and then use the Intense Repair hand lotion over night. Helps my hands way more than I could ever say! I absolutely recommend this to any and everyone who suffers from dry skin. This will change your life!

*You can find it at Target for $10.99-$12.99! 99% natural.

*The hand lotion is $8.99! 98% natural.

Yes To Cucumbers Travel Towelettes Review!

Yes To always has giveaways! One of their more recent giveaways was their Mighty (Big) Mini Giveaway. I've entered countless giveaways and never did win, always so sad =(. They say they email winners, so when I didn't receive an email for this giveaway, I figured I didn't win this one either. But when I got home on Monday, I checked the mail and there was a package for me. I wasn't sure what it was, as I ripped it open I saw YTCU travel towelettes! Along with a card saying "Congratulations!". I was very excited! I stuck these babies in my purse and I love them! I've, of course, used the YTCU towelettes before, but I've never had the travel ones. There are 10 in a pack. Very handy in my bag! You never know when you may need one. I usually use oil blotting sheets on the go, but I use one of my organic Yes To towelette's everyday. I suggest/recommend these to people who are on the go, but could use a pick me up. They make me feel so refreshed! Not to mention any oil on my face gets wiped away and my face is left smooth and hydrated.

Avon Brush Review!

A few months ago I was really interested in a brush I saw in an Avon book. It was just a regular brush, but it had this removable piece that was supposed to help pull all the loose hair it collected out. I went ahead and ordered it since it was like $7. I was very disappointed when I got it. I never use it and never will! It's so HARD! There is no give at all, no cushion. It's horrible. I tried it once and it hurt my head. I barely put any pressure. Horrible horrible brush! If you see it in an Avon book, avoid it! It sounds better than it is.

Hallmark Kitten Bowl Review!

Hallmark had a Kitten Bowl on Superbowl Sunday. I finally got around to watching the 3 hour event last night. It was the most adorable thing in the world! Granted I did start to get a little bored, but who doesn't love watching cute little baby kitties playing with toys and each other. When they got a toy into the end zone, it counted as a touchdown. They had 4 teams. The first 2 teams faced off, then the second 2 teams. Each of the winners then faced off for the championship. It was adorable. I really liked the ref too, he was cracking me up! The kittens were brought in from a no kill shelter. They said they do Kitten Bowls all over and people attend and then adopt the kittens afterwards. So sweet! They had trivia with celebrities too. For instance, I knew that male cats were called Tom Cats, but I never knew female cats were called Molly Cats. How cute! I also didn't know that tabby cats and black cats have the hardest time getting adopted in shelters. Since they're so "ordinary". The funny thing about that is, we adopted kittens from a stray cat. We feed the strays in the area. She had her kittens elsewhere, but ended up moving them into our backyard. Before winter started, we moved them into the basement. Since we have another cat that we know for sure doesn't have feline leukemia. It's hard to know if strays have it or not since they live outside. So after a few months we got some money together and took the little boy to be fixed and tested. He came back negative! Friday (if weather permits) we're supposed to be taking the little girl to get fixed and tested as well. We already moved them into the house. Back to my point though! The little boy is a black tuxedo cat and the little girl is a tabby. I think they're absolutely adorable! They may be doing another Kitten Bowl on TV next year!

Amazon Silicone Case Deals Review!

I already bought like 8 cases from Amazon.com since they're dirt cheap! All the silicone cases I have were $1.25 and the gel flex case I have was a little over $6. So last night I was browsing again, just to see if there were anymore cheap silicone ones with colors I don't have. So I ordered a purple one for $1.25. And there was also this awesome deal where you could get 2 silicone cases (I ordered blue and white) and 3 screen protectors for $4.99! All together after shipping it only cost me $12.18! Can't beat that! It says it should ship out today and be here Friday! I'm in the midwest though, and we're having a snow storm as we speak. So not sure if they'll be delivered on time or not. *Fingers crossed!*. I adore silicone cases since they fit my Blackberry Curve perfectly! Not to mention they protect your phone. I also love that they're one piece instead of 2 pieces you have to put together around your phone. Those are SO HARD to get back off! Silicone ones you just slide right off/on. I highly recommend them. And yeah, 11 cases seems ridiculous, I know lol. But again, they're dirt cheap! Not to mention I love having options and I change my case every few days. Sometimes weekly.

Yes To Grapefruit Towelettes/Body Scrub Review!

I mostly wanted to let you guys know what an AMAZING deal I found at Target! I always hit the natural aisle, whether I need something or not. It's always worth a look, in my opinion. Especially since sometimes they have sales and deals! So as I was looking, I looked up where the YTG towelettes are and I saw a YTG body scrub attached to it! I had to do a double take. It was the last one too! So I grabbed it to get a better look at it. You pay the $5.99 for the towelettes and get the scrub worth $9.99 for FREE! I had to snag that deal! I'm not sure how long this deal is going on, or even if it is anymore, but you have to check it out if you're at Target. I know $5.99 for 25 towelettes is a lot, I'm on a budget, so I really do know that. But organic is worth the extra money, in my opinion. Plus really you're paying $5.99 and getting almost $16 worth of products! So worth it! I haven't actually tried the scrub yet (I'm currently using my YTG body wash). I'll do a separate review on that when I try it! But again, you have to check out the natural aisle at Target and see if the deal is still going on! 
I've done a review on the towelettes before, they are WONDERFUL! They smell amazing and these ones are exfoliating. They have little, almost pillow looking, little squares all over it to help exfoliate. I love how my skin feels so refreshed, soft, and hydrated after using them. I adore everything I've tried from the Yes To line. Especially the towelettes!

Yes To Grapefruit Rejuvenating Body Wash Review!

These first came out last year. I was at Target checking out the natural aisle. I saw all the new body washes Yes To had. So I got them all lol. I tried the YTCU first. This is the second one I've tried. I absolutely love it! The scent is fantastic! It's a thin consistency, but it lathers up very very well! I do have a problem with the caps, so I always twist them off and slowly pour some on my loofah. It doubles as a bubble bath too, which explains its consistency. I'm a shower person, so I just use it as my body wash. It leaves my skin feeling beautiful and there is no residue. I feel super clean! It's also 95% natural, which I love! I was fortunate enough to get a coupon for $3 off any of their body washes. I think I'll use it to try the Yes To Blueberries. I haven't bought that one just because it has lavender in it and I hate lavender! But I'm curious how my skin will feel with it. I think I can get over the scent to see what kind of benefits it brings to my skin. I highly recommend these washes to any and everyone!

*I got mine at Target for $8.99. You get a 16.9 oz bottle.

Up & Up Bath Tissue Review!

For the longest time we were Charmin people. One day, a long time ago, I was shopping at Target and needed to pick up some toilet paper. As I'm looking at all the brands I see the Up & Up store brand. It was only $12 for 24 double rolls. So I got it. I think this toilet paper is just as good as Charmin. The Up & Up double roll is twice the size of a Charmin roll. It's also strong, yet gentle. I use it for my make up also. I think this toilet paper is awesome. I also got my mom to switch to it! Great price and great quality. Don't let the price fool you!
