Drugstore mini haul & review.



Hello everyone!!

Wow...I feel like this blog has been a little abandoned lately. Sorry about that! I've been busy and just all over the place~
But hey! I'm back with a mini drugstore haul. Lately I've been buying some drugstore products just because they are just easy to find, affordable and so far, I'm happy with how they work.
I just really hate that I haven't been able to find a couple of products from Maybelline and CoverGirl...
Anyways, let's see what I have for now:

♥ Garnier Skin Naturals Cleansing Tissues:
Like I've said before, I have very sensitive skin, especially when it comes to cleansing products. So far, only the Missha cleanisng tissues work well with my skin, sadly I ran out of them and didn't had the time to go and get more so, I chose between Neutrogena and Garnier. I went fo the Garnier ones. They had 2 types, the ones I got are for dry/sensitive skin. They claim to remove even waterproof makeup with double dosis of makeup remover, vitamin E and rose extract. They include 25 tissues and have a soft rose scent (which doesn't make me way too happy but, it's ok)
I've been using them for a few weeks now and so far I'm happy with them. No reactions on my face since day one which is a BIG yay. I think they are a little dry compared to the Missha ones but they do the job. And I mean, I'm not replacing them for this ones but, I could buy again if needed.

♥ Sparkz Mini LipBalm:
Last Winter my skin and lips got really, really dry, especially the lips. I've always had a dry lips problem and I swear I've tried SO many types and brands of lip balms to help my lips but nothing seems to work very well after a while...
I always thought this kind of round lip balm thingies were really cute but never actually thought about buying them. Then I saw the "mini" version and yeah, they are way too cute not to buy. So I bought one and liked it enough to buy another one a week later.
First of all, I have to say that aside from being cute, the smell and taste (yesss, taste! It's not like I'm eating them but, yeah.) are just SO DELICIOUS! No joke. The package sayis in contains vitamin E and Aloe. So far I've seen only 3 versions of them:
Pink - Strawberry
Green - Watermelon
Red - Cherry
I was actually expecting them to have a little color once you apply them but...they don't! Anyways, I have to say that I really like them so far, they are long lasting and since they have no color, I can apply them before applying lipstick and it won't affect the color I decide to wear. BIG thumbs up for these babies! Now I have to buy the cherry one!



♥ Garnier BB Cream Eye Roll-On (light): This is pretty much an eye concealer that claims to reduce dark cirlces and eye bags, soften the fine expression lines, illuminate and hydrate the eye area.
You are supposed to see results in 7 days.
So even tho I'm not a huge fan of Garnier's BB cream, I've been really liking this product. It's totally different! It is a lot lighter, easy to work with and the color matches my sking tone a little better. The package contains 7ml (it says about 150 applications), I think the price was pretty good and yeah, It's good to find a super light eye concealer with decent coverage.
It comes as a mini roll-on which makes it super easy to apply and blend. It makes my eye area look brighter and more awake.
Totally happy with this one!

And that is pretty much it for now! I haven't been buying a lot lately, I'm trying to save money and buy stuff I actually need...most of the time! Haha.
I'd love to know if you've tried some of these and if you've liked them! Any drugstore product you love and I should try? Let me know!
