Delightfully Decadent December Hauls 2023

JoSometimes — Sat, 02 Dec 2023 03:22:30 GMT

T’was the week before Christmas and all through the malls, BIC’ers were shopping and collecting their hauls…

Happy December to everyone! There will surely be plenty of delightfully decadent December hauls as we all get ready for the holidays. Whether they’re gifts from loved ones or something for yourself, show of your holiday hauls for everyone to see!

Happy birthday to all the December babies! (If you’re like some of my relatives, I’m sorry you only ever got one present at this time of year… You are still very special!)

And Merry Christmas, Hanukkah Sameach, Habari Gani, and Happy Holidays to everyone!

Lmao @ only getting one gift! That's tough and makes me even more grateful for being born in May 😅

Jokes aside, I always tell people born around this time of year to just think of it as millions of ppl preparing and celebrating for YOUR special day. Their birthdays aren't overshadowed in my eyes. They have pretty lights to look at, ppl are generally nicer, and things are on SALE! Who doesn't love a good deal and sparkly things to adorn themselves with?! The season in itself is a gift 😊

I had to search high and low for this thread @JoSometimes, clicking and scrolling before my brain decided to join the chat and just go directly to Haul Stars. Lol.

The UPS man just left a couple of my orders and I am glad to have found the Dec haul thread 💖

Yayyyy! I love Bobbi Brown @greeneyedgirl107 😍 Nordstrom does GWPs, but they aren't plentiful like some other stores.

Non-traditional beauty assistants:

Skin Helpers

Huge jar of L-Lysine and a rebuy of Mary Ruth's Organic Lymphatic Support came from Amazon.

L-lysine is crucial for collagen production. It helps reduce the look of wrinkles. I don't have wrinkles, and I don't want them before I'm a senior citizen 🤣
I use the Lymphatic Support Extract because it also increases collagen production, helps sinus issues/allergies, increases lymph flow, removes toxins from the skin, and I'm sure a bevy of other benefits.

@furbie I’m glad you found the thread! I’m curious to see what UPS brought you!

@CynthieLu I wish I could rhyme all the time. I was a poet and I didn’t even know it… 😉

That’s a pretty neat haul @furbie! All the Mac lippie shades you chose look great. Have you used that specific formula before?

And 12 shades whiter? That’s a pretty bold claim.

Enjoy your goodies!

I love the preventative care you’ve got going on @furbie! I’m no where near senior citizen but I already have a few wrinkles. I blame my eczema and the damage caused from scratching.

@furbie @Amazing haul. Did you get the lip tin from MAC?

Thank you @JoSometimes 🤗

Yes, I've used the MAC Powder Kiss Liquid before. I got it in the shade Blurred Kiss as a GWP set from Macy's in October. Omg, I knew from the 1st swipe on my lips that I wanted more colors! It feels like someone took a cloud from the sky and made it into a liquid lipstick. It makes your mouth feel soft and smooths out lines I never knew I had that needed smoothing. It mostly stays on through meals/drinking, but there is a little transfer. I'm single right now, so IDK how it'd hold up to a good makeout session 😆

I'm unsure if the teeth whitening device can back up its claim of erasing 12 years worth of staining. This is the first whitening device that I've bought, and the non-incentivized reviews were good.

Awww @JoSometimes, that's sad to hear 🙁 Hopefully, you can stop the wrinkles from getting worse before you're actually elderly.

I am also guilty of being a bit rough on my skin. I just stopped snatching out my eyelashes (when one was jabbing me in the eye) THIS YEAR! I'm not even going to get into all the abrasive stuff I'd put on my face in my teens and twenties! >thinks back to St. Ives Walnut Scrub and scalding hot eyebrow waxes at the nail salon bi-weekly< Lol, all we can do is better than yesterday.
