The Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday Haul

Your girl got a bit carried away last week with all the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals. What can I say? I love saving money on things that I would buy regardless. And the cool thing about this shopping trip is that a few of the places I ordered from were donating a portion of the sales to several worthy causes, which is a win-win situation. In this haul you're going to see a little bit of everything from a toothbrush, to some very fancy shoes that I've been wanting for years. I also got some more derpy pins to add to my very random collection, so if you're on the market for new pins then you might enjoy the three companies that I'll be sharing with you. And like always, it couldn't be a Laura Neuzeth haul without sharing some new makeup products.

Sephora VIB Sale 2016 Haul

The happiest time of the year has finally arrived- No, it's not Christmas or my birthday but the Sephora VIB Sale! Alright... Maybe I'm hyping up this sale a bit too much, but ask any beauty addict and they'll tell you all the items in their Sephora VIB Sale wishlist. Although the discount isn't jaw dropping, I'll gladly take 20% off on brands that pretty much never go on sale. This time around your girl decided to treat herself in quite a big way. I've always taken advantage of this sale, but this time around I have more money to spend on myself so I did just that. I picked up a few incredible gift sets, bought a few favorites in new shades, and even got a few new items to try out. The sale may be over by now, but if you missed out then this is your chance to build up that Christmas wishlist of yours.

A Few Things I Picked Up From Lush

My life took somewhat of a crazy turn recently and let's just say that the stress and anxiety have been creeping on me. It's very easy for me to get consumed by my thoughts, and that's why I always try to be proactive and do something before my anxiety becomes worse. This past week I decided that I wanted some retail therapy and boy did it feel amazing to just go to the mall for hours. One of the stores that really called my name that day was Lush, which is kind of strange for me since I'm not really a Lush-aholic. The Lush scent just lured me in and then I went a little crazy trying out and sniffing almost everything! I swear that all the products in the store sounded really appealing to me that day and I ended up buying some cool and some unusual things that I want to share with you.

Record Store Day 2016 Haul

Music used to play a big role when I began this blog in 2013. I still remember awkwardly sitting in front of my iPad Mini with my auburn hair to record the Music Tag. From there I started curating and posting monthly playlists, those were honestly some of my favorite posts and I still find myself listening to them from time to time on Spotify. As much as I loved curating the playlists, it seemed that many of my readers couldn't care less about them so that discouraged me quite a bit. That's also around the time when I started being told to "stick to my niche" in blogger events. "If you write about beauty, then stick to beauty" but what if I like other things other than makeup? That's why I've decided to back to my blog's roots and start posting about music again. Music is something I really enjoy talking about, so why not share that aspect of my life? I'm going to get started with a little Record Store Day haul to re-introduce you to the music posts.

Sephora VIB Sale + First Impressions

The Sephora VIB Sale ended last week but I made sure to take advantage of the discount code while it was active. Normally I have a larger list of products that I want to try out, but this time around I actually had a tough time picking out things that I wanted to try. It also didn't help that the products that I've been dying to try out are launching after the sale. After much brainstorming (because I'm weird like that), I settled on these items pictured. Some are brand new to me, some I already know that I will love, and others just look very interesting. Instead of just taking items out of the box and just showing them in this haul, I've decided to share my first impressions about the products that I hauled in this video.

Haul | Morphe, Shop Miss A, and Ulta

I remember when collective hauls were everything among the YouTube community, but they were quickly replaced by your big hauls from a single store. Personally I'm a big fan of collective hauls, so I decided to film one for you. I recently placed orders on Morphe, Shop Miss A, and Ulta. I've heard so much about Morphe for the past year and it took me this long to place an order there. And by now you probably have heard about the uber cheap Shop Miss A site. After I uploaded my first Shop Miss A haul I went on the website and noticed that they had received liquid lipsticks, so I quickly placed another order. What can I say? I take my reviewing job very seriously.

Shop Miss A Haul

Everything you see in this picture was $1. Yes, everything! I can't be the only one that feels so much satisfaction when hauling dollar items, so when I first heard about Shop Miss A I knew it was going to be a website I would enjoy a lot. Shop Miss A is a Texas based online store that offers makeup, accessories, jewelry, and hair items for just $1. They offer brands like E.l.f., Kleancolor, Beauty Trends, L.A. Colors, and Starry. What I loved the most was the attention to detail, everything on the site has really clear pictures and many of the makeup items are swatched (some with on different skintones). This is surely going to be the first of many Shop Miss A hauls since I was so pleased with the products and the whole shopping experience.

Asian Beauty Haul

I've been wanting to try out Asian beauty and skincare products for the longest time, but it took me a while to find an online store that had both reasonably prices and shipping. During a quick YouTube search I came across a video by an Asian beauty blogger residing in the UK and she recommended an eBay store which I immediately fell in love with. The eBay store has a great array of Asian skincare and beauty products that are priced very well, and the best thing is that the shipping is quite quick and completely free. Apart from ordering a few skincare and beauty products, I also purchased some more brushes from one of my favorite eBay shops.

How To Buy Makeup On Poshmark and Haul

It's no secret that I love makeup, but what I love more is saving money. Thankfully Poshmark has my back now that sellers can list various makeup products. You can find an incredible array of makeup products from brushes to highlighters, and there's literally every brand you can think of. I was personally on the hunt for luxury products from brands such as Burberry, Marc Jacobs, and Charlotte Tilbury. I've managed to save $10-$20 off products by simply shopping on Poshmark so in this video I'm going to share what I've purchased, as well as share some of my tips so you can start saving on makeup as well.

Ulta Haul

It's been a while since I last filmed a haul but I went to Ulta recently with a $10 off coupon with me. All the items I purchased are incredibly affordable and products that you often don't hear about. The whole Ulta makeup range never gets talked about on YouTube so I decided to purchase a few things to test them out. I also picked up a few Essence lipsticks after hearing so many great things about them. Let me tell you, these $2.99 lipsticks definitely live up to all the hype!

ColourPop Haul

ColourPop is easily one of my favorite makeup brands as of late, because of their high quality products and their affordable prices. Everything is priced incredibly reasonably, I'm talking $5 lipsticks and $5 eyeshadows here! I've used many of their Lippie Stix and shadows in blog posts and videos in the past, and have even mentioned their Lippie Stix in one of my monthly favorites. Recently they came out with $6 matte liquid lipsticks called Ultra Matte Lip and let me tell you, they're amazing! All 25 shades in that collection sold out on the launch day, but don't worry because they'll be fully restocked in early August. You might want to start saving up for a future ColourPop haul after watching this latest video.

Generation Beauty Haul + Review

On Saturday I was able to attend Ipsy's Generation Beauty event thanks to Pacifica. I got asked if I wanted to attend and of course I said YES! I was so excited to drive up to Los Angeles and see what the event was all about. There were so many brand booths and products to check out, it was like a makeup lover's paradise. In this video I will be sharing a mini vlog about the event, so you can see what it was like. I will also show you all the products that I bought and received at the event, trust me there was a bunch of makeup being handed out. And finally I will also share my opinion about the event, just in case any of you are interested in attending next year's event. Warning: This is a long video so grab yourself a drink and snack!

Sephora VIB Rouge Sale Haul

There are two dates that every beauty lover looks forward to: the spring VIB beauty sale and the sale in November. As much as I love buying makeup, let me be real- Sephora has some really expensive products and brands. I love whenever there's a chance to save a little money at Sephora, because I can finally go for the more pricey products that I've been meaning to try for the longest time. This sale was no exception, I was preparing myself and my wallet for this event for the last month. The result- a pricey haul but I managed to save around $50 and get some good Ebates bucks out of it, so overall it was a success. 

The Yves Rocher Holiday Collection

The Yves Rocher holiday scents are here and let me tell you, they are absolutely amazing! There's everything from a delightful pear caramel, to refreshing berry scents. For the Jaffa Cake fans out there, there's something for you in this collection (I'm talking to you mom)! The collection is a big one and it includes products such as candles, body care, nail polishes, and makeup. This was my first introduction to many of the products that I'll be talking about in this video. Consider this kind of like a "haul and review" video where I will show you what I received and tell you a bit about everything.

Ipsy Bag and Julep Maven Unboxing

I have the mother of all unboxing videos this December! My November Ipsy bag arrived in late November due to a shipping problem, so I decided to just open it along with the December bag. Little did I know my Julep Maven would arrived alongside the Ipsy bag, so then I had the idea to just open all of them in one video. Spoiler alert: I was super happy with everything! Julep currently has some amazing nail polish colors at the moment that are definitely worth checking out. If you want to see what I received in my Ipsy and Julep Maven packages just watch the video below.

Sephora Haul

I've been going a little crazy at Sephora these past two months. Since I finally have a little money to spend I've been taking the opportunity to try some of the brands that I've been hearing so much about on YouTube and blogs. And it's also time for the holiday gift sets and let me tell you there are some amazing deals going on at the moment. Whether you're looking for gift ideas or want to see my very first luxury makeup purchases (yes, it happened!) just watch the video below. Also, I'm officially a Sephora VIB member again! Woohooo!

Beauty and Skincare Haul

I'm done hoarding all these new products and ready for another haul video. I have a few things I bought recently, some which were sent to me, and then things I asked my parents to get me during their European vacation. There's a little bit of everything from nail polishes to a gentle makeup remover in this haul. I'll also be giving you guys a sneak peek at upcoming blog reviews and just like always you can request reviews in the comments below.

The Summer Fashion Haul

Here is part 2 of my mini haul week over on my YouTube channel. Thank to the summer sales I've been able to find a bunch of great wardrobe staples for a fraction of the price. I've picked up a lot of striped items, basic shirts, and even some very versatile sandals which I'm probably going to keep wearing until late fall. This fashion haul is unlike my other hauls I've done in the past because instead of trying to describe the item I'm actually going to show you how each of the items looks on me.

The Big Summer Beauty Haul

Guess who's been shopping? This girl right here! My biggest problem with having a job is knowing that I have money to go shopping with. It happens every time I have a job but I felt like getting one last beauty haul up before I go on my makeup ban. Yes, that's going to happen real soon. In this haul you'll get a good mix of drugstore and high end products, and even some very interesting stuff from Mexico.

Spring Beauty Haul

I told you that there was going to be another haul and here it is! In today's haul I'm going to show you the stuff I've picked up at Sephora, MAC, Ulta, Yves Rocher, Lush, and last but not least my Julep Maven box. There's a lot of things to get through and all of them happen to be very spring-y, so if you're interested in seeing what I have picked up please stay tuned to watch my newest video.
