"Not Shopping til I Drop" 65 Days Challenge : Day 54 & CONTEST

Hello my lovelies! I have not given you an update on my no buy in a little while and thought it was just proper. I am so sorry but I really didn't want to bore you with all my non sense and suffering. Bahahaha!! There is a good and bad outcome. The GOOD is that the END is near and I can finally buy whatever I want. =D The BAD is that I live in a very small apartment with a family of 9 and I share a room that is about 250 sq. ft. and my Makeup Collection has gotten so BIG it no longer fits in this room & I can't even buy cute compartments/boxes to put everything away because they don't fit so it will be stupid of me to continue to buy; unless I move. Moving is definitely an option because I need my own space!! I am planning to do the whole Project Pan thing just to start using some of my stuff! Anyways that is my update... I thank God for the games on Facebook because I managed to win tons of FREE stuff and Christian who spoiled me with an early Christmas Shopping Spree at Sephora during the Friends and Family 20% Discount! I will definitely have a HAUL video up as soon as I get the 3rd BOX! Yes! You read right... THREE boxes because I had to make three different orders to complete ALL I wanted!

Here is my CURRENT video which is my OCTOBER FAVORITE'S video! ENJOY!

StellaStarish Cosmetics

I first came across StellaStarish Cosmetics when I entered a makeup contest she was sponsoring which I luckily one!! I was able to try some of her babies and completely fell in love! Stella the owner is such a humble and helping person. I then decided to follow her fan page daily where she has tons of fun going on! I decided to buy some of her pigments to use as prizes for my scavenger hunts & she was a total doll DOUBLING my order that night, where I was able to have some pretties for myself. She answers questions right away and is always there when you need any information. Now on to her goodies:

All her boxes are hand stamped with gold stars

4. Stick a few marshmallow on the peanut butter on one of the apple wedges and top with the other apple wedge-peanut butter side down.
*Optional- sprinkle food coloring on the marshmallows to make the marshmallows look like rotting teeth!

"Not Shopping til I Drop" 65 Days Challenge : Day 26

Sales! Sales! Sales! That's all I'm hearing every where I go! Sales are pretty awesome, right? Especially when you can get some thing you've been meaning to try or have for a while now! Well something I've noticed while chit chatting with a friend of mine was how fast I was to pull out my money when I heard that word Sale! I never cared enough to check if it really was a sale that was WORTH splurging on. So while in this challenge of not being able to buy anything I have come across many great discounts and opportunities to buy some awesome stuff but couldn't!*sad face* but since I can not just whip out the cash I am forced to do something else. That something else is meditating on how much the sale really has... Its crazy but I actually have been able to tell myself even if I had not been in this challenge I think I would've still said NO! Crazy huh? I would've said NO! Usually I wouldn't even care and just been like hey its a sale! *haha* This challenge is definitely hurting my heart because they're some things that are SOO worth the sale; but I look at the bright side of things & I am saving a LOAD of money!! :) & I know I will finish a different, stronger and smarter spender!
On another note I would like to share with you all my new Fusebox Mineral Cosmetics "Spook-tacular Collection" on sale for only $8CAD! Check it out!

Until the next time!
