Freckled Fawn Order ::Black Friday Grab Bags:: ♥

An awesome Black Friday Sale happened over at Freckled Fawn last month♥

I got myself 3 washi tape grab bags for $4.50 each...an amazing deal considering ONE washi roll can cost up to that much.  I was lucky and didn't get any repeats (but one) and I got some really cute washi tapes!  I am beyond happy with this!

Mystery Grab Bags 1&2

Mystery Grab Bag 3

I also added a couple other individual tapes.

I especially adore the gardening girl washi tape.

Washi tape haul!!

I think I'm well stocked with my tapes now ^_^

Burt's Bees ::2015 Spring Sampler:: ♥

I found out about this yesterday.

Burt's Bees is releasing a Spring Sampler!

A grab bag of 7 products + pouch.

This Spring Sampler includes:

Super Shiny Mango Shampoo

Mango & Orange Energizing Body Bar

Mango Lip Balm

Nourishing Milk & Honey Body Lotion (2.5oz)

Facial Cleansing Towelettes with White Tea Extract (10 count)

Tinted Lip Balm in Honeysuckle

Radiance Day Lotion (Travel Size)

Festive pouch

This grab bag is selling for $20 (a $36 value)

Also, I believe the products are full size unless otherwise noted.

I'm still on the fence about trying this one out.

Although I think $20 is a pretty good deal for a Burt's Bees grab bag, the shipping cost kills it for me.

It's another $5 for shipping, plus tax.  So in total it would come close to $30.

Hmmm... I'm still debating.

DERMSTORE Grab Bag "Hair Rescuers" contents ♥

This is the 'Hair Rescuers' Grab bag.

I was much happier with this one versus the 'Resolution Kickstarters' bag.

A first look.

I'm liking what I see--I immediately recognize a few brands.

Rescue rapid repair hair mask

I LOVE hair masks!

I have so much thick hair that hair masks work wonderfully for me.

My Sample Value $45.00

(Full size value $45.00)

Fekkai full blown volume shampoo

Hmmm...I am the complete opposite.

I DON'T want volume because I already do.

But I love Fekkai...

My Sample Value $5.00

(Full size value $20.00 for 8oz)

Klorane Dry Shampoo witih Oat Milk

Thanks to Birchbox, I've tried Klorane dry shampoo and I LOVE it!!

I'm so happy to have another one!

The scent is just amazing guys!

My Sample Value $9.00

(Travel size value $9.00)

Klorane Shampoo with desert date

Squeeee!!! Another Klorane product and this time it's a full size shampoo!

Little irked I didn't receive the conditioner...anytime a shampoo is included in a box I think the conditioner should come as a set.

My Sample Value $15.00

(Full size value $15.00)

follimedica Thinning hair therapy

Meh...another item I won't be using.

I absolutely do not have any thinning hair.

Quite the opposite actually...Perhaps my grandmother will want to give this a try.

My Sample Value $30.00

(Full size value $30.00)

JF anti-aging haircare restore

This is a very tiny sample.

With the amount of hair I have, this will be a one time use.

Interesting--it says here that this replaces your shampoo & conditioner on the days I use it.

My Sample Value est.$2.00 (no idea...)

(Full size value $36.00)

Harry Josh pro tools Carbon Tail Comb

Really cool!  I'm happy they included a 'tool' among all the hair products.

This is my second Harry Josh product.

I received hair clips in my last Dermstore order the free samples that time.

This is a really nice comb.

My Sample Value $20.00

(Full size value $20.00)

Overall, I'm very happy with this grab bag!!

I like it much more that the Resolution Kickstarters bag.

Glad to have received a full size of Klorane Shampoo.

The total value of this grab bag (roughly) comes to $126.00

All in all, this was fun.

I'm not sure I will get another one next year...but if I do, I'm sticking to the hair care set.

DERMSTORE Grab Bag "Resolution Kickstarters" contents ♥

I received my DERMSTORE grab bags today ♥

Nothing special about the packaging--the 'bags' were just packaged in a shipping box.

I also received 2 free samples.

I purchased 2 grab bags.

'Resolution Kickstarters' (mainly skincare) and 'Hair Rescuers' (haircare)

They were $30.00 each.

Free Samples

LUMENE Bright Now Vitamin C BB cream SPF 20

Foil sample of a BB cream.

I've yet to find the perfect BB cream but I have a few that I like.

This one though, the shade might be a tad dark for me.

My Sample Value $0.62

(Full size value $14.99 for 1.7oz)

Yu-Be Japanese Moisturizing Skin Cream

I was happy to see this!  Birchbox samples this product but I haven't been lucky enough to receive one yet.  I love Japanese products ♥

My Sample Value $1.60

(Full size value $16.00 for 1oz)

A first look.

Pevonia Ligne Power Repair Hydrating Cleaner

This isn't a typical cleanser.  The directions say to apply to your face with wet fingertips then proceed to remove it with a washcloth.  Very interesting.

My Sample Value $13.81

(Full size value $32.50 for 4oz)

Raw Beauty Kat Burki Hibiscus Antioxidant Face Mask

I really like face masks so I'll be trying this soon.

The sample size is rather small but still worth $4!

My Sample Value $4.10

(Full size value $78.00 for 4.4oz)

Zents attar oil concentrate - scent *pear*

This is a roll-on body oil fragrance.

It has a roller applicator and a little goes a long way.

I received the pear scent and I really like this!

My Sample Value $38.00 wow!

(Full size value $38.00)

Perricone MD Cosmeceuticals Chloro Plasma

This is another treatment mask for the face.

This product is a bit intimidating...it's sounds very scientific.

You apply to your face and as microcapsules are released the color will turn dark green.

These microcapsules contain Blue Green Algae.

My Sample Value $15.25

(Full size value $75.00 for 2oz)

SKYLARK Memoir Fragrance Collection

Pleasantly surprised to find some perfume samples in here.

I've never heard of this brand but this came with 3 scents.

The vials are roll-on applicators and a decent size.

The scent is nice but I do feel like an older woman would wear this more than I would.

I like the more sweet, youthful perfumes.

But I'll hand onto these.

My Sample Value $29.95

(Full size value $29.95)

Medicell Labs Advanced Moisture Eye Mask Duo

This is an under eye treatment mask.  I have a real under eye problem..

I'm tired a lot and having 2 boys, it's crazy!

I have some poofy-ness and dark circles.

With the pricing for this, I'm betting this stuff really works!

My Sample Value $30.00 for 1 treatment

(Full size value $60.00 for 2 treatments)

Trophy Skin Argan Stem Cell Serum

Foil packet--probably 1 or 2 uses.

I love argan oil so this will be used.

My Sample Value $5.20

(Full size value $39.00 for 1oz)

Dr Dennis Gross alpha beta peel

Another kind of product I've never used. 

I'll wait to use this--I'm not really into face peels.

They remind me of a chemical peel and we all know 

what happened to Samantha from Sex and the City.

My Sample Value $2.46 for 1 treatment

(Full size value $148.00 for 60 treatments)

Overall, I'm a little meh about this grab bag.

The value is definitely there but I feel like these are products for people who are older and need strong anti-aging products.  

I'm still 32 so some of these still seem a bit harsh for my skin.

I'll research more and see what I'll be using.

I may pass some onto my mother or grandmother.

The total value for this Grab Bag (roughly) comes to $140.99

wow...that's quite the value.

DERMSTORE Grab Bags ♥

I received an email from DERMSTORE about several grab bags they are releasing!

I made a purchase last month at DERMSTORE after 

receiving a coupon in my Target Beauty Box.  

I had a very pleasant experience with their service so I immediately considered purchasing a grab bag.  (Here's my post about my DERMSTORE purchase)

I'm not sure how often they release grab bags but it looks like they've done a few before.

I looked around and considered purchasing one.

But then I had a coupon for $10 off if I purchase over $30.01.

You will also automatically receive 30 FREE issues of People Magazine. (again, over $30.01)

So to take advantage of the coupon and magazine I purchased 2 boxes.

The 'Resolution Kickstarters' and 'Hair Rescuers'.

I got a free 3 Day delivery so I should expect my boxes this week ♥
