Victoria's Secret: $3.99 Panties Review!

Their SAS ended on June 24th, but my mom got a free panty coupon in the mail. So I went in to pick them up for her. I noticed the Pink side has nothing on sale anymore, but the VS side still has some sale fragrances, make up, bras, and panties. My mom's free panty was on the Pink side. So I picked a pair I thought she would like and then was making my way towards the registers when I saw the bra/panty sale tables. I went to check those out for a few minutes. I saw some cute bras, but they weren't as cute as I would have wanted. So I skipped those. I did see a cute pair of panties though. They're light grey with bright orange polka dots and bright orange lace trim. Very adorable! They look really comfy too. Unfortunately the tag that had the original price was torn off. All it had was a sticker stuck to it that said $3.99. So I'm not sure exactly how much I saved. I would image they were $9.50-$10.50. $3.99 is like Target priced panties! I can't wait to try them out! I only spent $4.34 after tax. I think that's the cheapest VS trip I've ever had! Ha ha.

Bath & Body Works: Frost Cranberry Oil Review!

This was one of the oils I got for my oil warmer. It was on sale during the SAS for $1.50! I got Frosted Cranberry and Vanilla Snowflake. Frosted Cranberry is hands down one of my favorite fall/winter fragrances. It smells SO good! I love sweet scents, and this is definitely sweet! I have a few candles in this scent as well as car discs. I've never had it in an oil before though, so that's exciting. I use it in my room, so I don't put that many drops into my oil warmer and it fills the room beautifully. I actually hadn't broken out my oil warmer in quite some time lol. I have 2. I have the kind that uses tea lights and the electric one. You would think the electric one would be better, but I think I like the tea light warmer better. It's prettier too.

Pro X Clearz Anti-Fungal Pen Review!

I've had this mild fungus on my toe for a few months now. It actually didn't occur to me that it was a fungus at first lol. My mom said tea tree oil is good for killing mold and fungus. And it's natural, of course, which is a plus. However, I used a WHOLE bottle of it over a few weeks period (4 times a day) and the fungus is still there. So I went to Walgreens to try to find something good. I found this anti-fungal pen and thought I'd give it a try. I've seen reviews before where people say tolnaftate works really well at killing fungus. After my first couple of uses I was already seeing an improvement. I've been using it for a couple weeks now and the fungus is almost gone! I'm gonna use the pen until the lotion is gone. I'm hoping the fungus will clear before that. Then as I'm finishing off the lotion, I shouldn't have to worry about the fungus returning. It says on the box to use it 2 times a day for 4 weeks. It's really easy to use. It does look like a pen lol. It has lotion inside and you twist it and then it releases the lotion onto the brush. It's very easy to put on too. The brush keeps you from putting too much. It says on the directions you shouldn't put it on the nail (since they claim nothing is strong enough to penetrate the nail). It says to put it on the surrounding skin and under the nail as far as you can get it. I put it directly on the nail too though. I feel like it works very well. So if you're using TTO right now and it isn't working for you, I highly recommend switching to something with tolnaftate!

*I found it at Walgreens for around $10.

Dearfoams: Summer Fur Thong Update!

As I stated in my review yesterday, I got my Dearfoams. One was in the size I ordered and the other was NOT in the size I ordered. They emailed me back within 15 minutes of me telling them they sent me the wrong size. They asked if I wanted a replacement to be sent or get a refund. I mean they were only $7.47, so I just said send me a replacement. It shipped this morning. Their customer service is great. They get back to you in record speed. They also said I can keep or throw away the pair that was sent in the wrong size. I would never throw them away! And keeping them is stupid since they don't fit. Luckily my childhood friend is in town, she thinks they're cute, so I'm giving them to her. The size medium should fit her well. I wear size small. So medium is quite big on me! They're ridiculously comfortable though. Again, I hope no one would throw those away! If you can't find a friend that they would fit, then at least donate them. Don't throw them away! I was a little surprised they suggested that. Oh well though, they'll have a great home with my friend lol. And now we'll have matching pairs lol.

Dearfoams: Summer Fur Thong Review! Part 2

My package from Walmart.com came today. Like I said in my first impression review, they didn't (and still don't) have pictures of them on their site. All their other Dearfoams slippers have pictures, but not the summer fur thongs. They're the newest, so maybe they just overlooked it? I have no idea. Anyway, they aren't really the summer fur thongs. Those are very specific slippers and what I got is totally different. I'll keep them (hell, they were dirt cheap, $7.47). They're comfortable too, they just aren't what I thought. The blueberry summer fur thongs are supposed to be a light blue body with a medium blue strap. I was so excited to get those since they're hard to find. When they came though, they're just a dark blue body with a dark blue strap. They're made with the same "pile" material as the others it seems, since they feel the same. The straps aren't as thick as the one's I ordered from Dearfoams.com. I also ordered the firefly yellow. I wear a size small and that's what I ordered. They sent me a small in the blueberry, but they sent me a medium in the yellow =/. I already emailed them and they're gonna replace them with the correct pair. (Glad my friend from out of town is visiting and she wears a size medium, so I found them a good home lol). They're still cute, don't get me wrong, just not at all what I imagined. So I took a risk. It wasn't too bad of a risk. I mean it's not like I'm out a ton of money or something lol. I won't be doing that again though...

Bath & Body Works: Vanilla Snowflake Oil Review!

It's the last week of Semi Annual Sale. I don't normally buy anything at BBW because nothing really interests me. But there were some oils on sale for 75% off. Originally $6, I paid $1.50! I got two. Vanilla Snowflake and Frosted Cranberry. I definitely don't buy or like any of the body care because I don't like the ingredients. I've always been curious about the bar soaps though and there were some true blue spa ones on sale for 75% off. Originally $7, I paid $1.75! I paid like $5 for $20 worth of products lol. I hope I like the soap, I'm only using the one though. Even if I like it, because of the ingredients. 

I burned the Vanilla Snowflake in my tea light oil warmer when I got home. It smells SO good! Great fall/winter fragrance! It smells like a cookie to me lol. It has vanilla and coconut in it. There's a hint of mint in it also which gives it more of a fall/winter scent vs a spring/summer. I absolutely love it.

Kitchen Scramble Review!

I was going through my news feed on Facebook yesterday when I saw a "suggested game". It looked cute so I thought, "Okay, why not?". It's actually super fun! You play a character named Pepper. She has a food truck with organic food. People come up and order things and you have to make them. They start you off easy; a fried egg, a baked potato. All you do with the egg is put it on the skillet, then you just take it off before it burns and give it to the customer. Same for the potato, only you put it in the oven. Then it gets more advanced the higher you go. So then you make things like omelette's; which requires a few ingredients. You put it in the mixer first, then into the skillet, then to the customer. It's so much fun. I'm not sure why, but I'm absolutely hooked! Ha ha. I would recommend it! It's really fun =)
