Hello! I really wasn't going to set foot inside Priceline during their three day 40% Off Skincare, Suncare and Tanning Sale last week because I don't really need anything, and this year I want to concentrate on using up the skincare products I have. However, these sales are the best time to stock up on products I use regularly, the ones I know I'll be replacing once they run out. If I'm going to be buying my staple skincare at some point anyway, it may as well be during a 40% off sale! Here's what I got!
Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water (x 2)
TN Dickinsons Witch Hazel
Swisspers Cucumber Facial Cleansing Wipes
Basically I'm lazy as hell so I bought things that remove my makeup quickly without me having to wash my face, lol. I'm not fussy with wipes, I'll try anything, and these cucumber ones sounds totes refreshing and perfect for summer. I use wipes regularly, but I ran out a while ago and somehow hadn't bought more. The Witch Hazel I've been using for a good ten years! It's cheap as heck ($3.95 after the discount) and a reliable toner, especially for problem skin. For my Micellar Water I decided to go back to the Garnier All In 1 version for all skin types (with the pink lid). I tried the green lidded version for combination to oily skin, but I didn't find it as good (even though I do have combination skin!). So back to the original we go! I got all of this for just under $25, which I'm thrilled with! Thanks, Priceline!

Did you pick up anything in the sale? Link up your post in the comments below, I'd love to have a read!
I resisted the sale because I am in the same boat of needing to use up a lot of existing skincare! I feel like your purchases were smart though so it all balances out :)

Thanks Kate! Yes I'll definitely use these things, so at least they won't just sit in the cupboard.
DeleteI have used the cucumber ones before when I was at university and I liked them. Thanks for linking up to the Ultimate Rabbit Hole - from Shari over at www.goodfoodweek.com.au
ReplyDeleteYeah loving the cucumber, it's so refreshing! Thanks for the link up!
DeleteI had to stay well away from the shopping centre those three days, I don't need anything and the temptation to just go in anyway was so strong! Haha, addicted to Priceline!

Oh I know this conundrum way too well haha! Well done on resisting temptation!
DeleteI bought Garnier Micellar water recently and I'm pleasantly surprised. 40% sale is pretty damn good deal. :)
ReplyDeleteMichelle Morchella
Yes it's nearly half price! It's a great Micellar Water isn't it :)
DeleteHaha I love your reasons for buying these - "I'm lazy and need something to remove make up quickly"
ReplyDeleteI only picked up a couple of things, I didn't really need anything, so I just stocked up on a few favourites!

LOL yes I just can't be bothered doing the whole proper cleanse every day!
DeleteNice haul! You were very restrained :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Anissa! :)
DeleteOh I missed the sale because we don't live near a Priceline! But my niece has a part-time job there and I should have asked her to nab me some specials. I am a huge witch hazel fan, and now that my kids are teens I am trying to convince them they don't need all the fancy expensive products with additives - a little witch hazel is one of the best cleansers you can use.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised how popular the witch hazel is amongst readers, I thought it was a hidden gem! Thanks for visiting Bronnie! :)
DeleteThat was a cracker of a sale wasn't it? I got splurged on a few packs of the L'Oreal make up wipes because when it comes to taking make up off, I am the ultimate lazy girl. I also got some of my Olay nite cream (because old lady!) for a steal. Gee, I love Priceline!
ReplyDeleteYou aren't an old lady! I use Olay Total Effects as my everyday moisturiser, I love it. And glad I'm not the only lazy one haha :)
DeleteOo I love the Garnier micellar water :) I haven't tried witch hazel before - something new to try in February I think xo
ReplyDeletewww.rhiannonplans.blogspot.co.uk
Yes the Garnier Micellar Water works really well and is such a time saver. Thanks for reading Rhiannon! :)
DeleteYou got some great skincare stuff. I also stocked up on a couple of cleansers. You should check out my haul as well!
ReplyDeleteRochelle | www.simplesocialsister.com
Yes yes! I just checked out your haul and left a comment. I love what you got!
DeleteI missed the sale ahh so devo! I love the Garnier Micellar water - use it everyday :)
ReplyDeletefindyourownhope.blogspot.com.au
Oh no! Well luckily they have sales pretty regularly, so I'm sure you'll catch the next one!
DeleteI looove the Micellar water!

Yes I'm finding a lot of people do. It's popular for good reason! Thanks for dropping by Lisa :)
DeleteI use the witch hazel, although I am thinking I might give those cucumber wipes a go ...
ReplyDelete#TeamLovinLife
Yeah, I broke open the packet and they are not terribly moist, but they did an OK job. Thanks for the linky Leanne! x
DeleteI'm on a use all my stuff up kick. But good to know!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Yes I'm sort of on one of those too, but these are staples so it's OK, lol.
DeleteI initially thought about skipping it this time around, but decided I needed to stock up on favourites in case I ran out before the next one in July, so I went & blew my small budget on my usual cleanser, moisturiser, lip balm & several Lanolips hand creams. I was tempted to pick up Trilogy's Make Up Be Gone Cleansing Balm, but the jar is tiny & I couldn't justify the price, even at 40% off. I did enable someone else to buy the SugarBaby scrub I picked up at the last sale though lol.
ReplyDeleteHaha, enabling is the best! Sounds like you picked up quite a few goodies Shell, glad you made good use of the sale. I really need to get into hand creams more, I can never be bothered lol.
DeleteI use all of these products and equally love. It's difficult to ignore a sale. Like you, I have about 5 years worth of beauty products to get through. :D
ReplyDeleteHaha, the stress, right? Sounds like you're set for life too. Yay!
DeletePriceline always have great deals. I've never tried Micellar water though. Eva - Knotlace & The Multitasking Woman
ReplyDeleteYes they do! Micellar Water is great if you're short on time :)
DeleteWhat a great deal ! i love the garnier micellar water.
ReplyDeleteYeah 40% off is nothing to be sneezed at!
DeleteI was going to go but I took stock of my skincare and realised I didn't really need anything.
ReplyDeleteThat's really sensible Vanessa. I'm definitely hoping to work my way through my stash this year!
DeleteI thought it best to stay away from Priceline during the sale, lol xx
ReplyDeleteHaha, I admire your restraint Michelle! xx
DeleteI love that Micellar water - so useful!
ReplyDeleteYes it sure is Lena! I use it nearly every day :)
DeleteI picked up a few goodies from the sale too hehe. I wish I had grabbed the Micellar water though x
ReplyDeleteJasmine / sweetaholic-beauty.com
Honestly, it was the first thing I thought of to get! x
DeleteSuch restraint Di, I'm impressed. I wasn't going to indulge either, but there were a few items that I simply couldn't resist because the price was just SO good. I ordered online, so the parcel won't arrive for a while, but that's something I can look forward to xxx
ReplyDeleteOoh yay, it's such fun getting packages in the mail, especially if you've kind of forgotten about them. Who am I kidding, it's impossible to forget beauty orders isn't it!? *watches letterbox like a hawk* xxx
DeleteAh seeing posts like this make me so jealous, I stayed away this time around too as I have so much skincare that needs to be used up. I do love that micellar water too though, and I grabbed a new bottle last time Priceline did the skincare bag so it'll last me a good while yet. Nice little haul you got though!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachel! I can't believe how popular the Garnier Micellar Water is!
DeleteThe cucumber wipes sounds wonderful and refreshing!
ReplyDeleteYes I love cucumber as a scent, so fresh!
DeleteI didn't pick up anything this time, but the Garnier Micellar Water would be my pick if I was anywhere near Priceline :)
ReplyDeleteIt's such a popular product!
DeleteWell done! I should have bought more Garnier Micellar Water but I didn't. Now I'll be buying it at full price in a couple of weeks time! GRRRR!
ReplyDeleteOh no! Well it was probably the one and only time I thought ahead Ingrid! lol
