Surprise Dollar Store Haul

The Dollar Tree I normally shop at hasn't had anything good in stock for months. It's normally just a bunch of off brand eye shadows (scary!) and separated nail polish (not ideal) so I haven't had a good haul from there in a while.

I went in the other day on a mission to buy sandwich bags, tin foil, and q-tips and ended up leaving with four new products (and the temptation to go back for more is very strong!)

Here's my haul:

Holy crap. I hit a gold mine!

The first thing I found was a complete accident. I never shop on the hair aisle unless I need a new pack of hair ties but happened to go down it while waiting for the person hogging the makeup aisle (and coughing up a lung) to move and man, I was so glad I did! I found this Got 2b Dry Conditioner and had to pick it up. First off, because it's a good name brand product. Second, what the fuck is Dry Conditioner? Had to take it home to try. So far, I dig it. It smells nice but I'm a little sad I didn't score any dry shampoo there, which is what I really need but figured this would be good for my ends since they get really bad.

The Dollar Tree had a literal metric ton of Sally Hansen Magnetic nail polish. I know... magnetic nail polish is soooo last season but for a dollar, why not? I picked up a color called "Slate Spark" which is an iridescent purple color. I have not used it yet (shame!) but I plan on doing my nails within the next day or so and then if I like the polish, plan on going back to pick up another bottle or two. There were so many colors!

Swatches of lipstick.

I then picked up two lipsticks. One is just a cheap-o ELF lipstick which would be a dollar anyway but it was a vibrant pink color called "Socialable" so I figured why not? It's just a dollar. If I hate it, I hate it. If I don't, cool beans.

The second is a Maybelline Hydra Time lipstick in Campy, which is a brownish-red color that is gorgeous! I wore it all day today and it stayed put pretty well and didn't dry out my lips like most lipsticks do. I was really impressed and definitely pleased with my dollar purchase. They had a couple of other colors in the Hydra Time and if I go back this week, I'm going to pick one or two more up.

 Anyone else make an awesome haul lately?
