Spending an afternoon perusing counters neatly lined with vibrantly colored make-up, trying on rich body creams and perfume, and browsing through beautiful products to accent your home sounds like time well spent to this beauty blogger. I am confident that most of you will agree, seeing that you're beauty-holics as well.
However, as enticing as an excursion like this sounds, I guarantee four hours at the mall with yours truly would leave you questioning our friendship. Why? Because I am the most indecisive shopper ever. The other day, my adorable hubby and I swung by Target. After a stress filled hour in the hair care section, I finally selected a set of hot rollers I deemed worthy of my $30.00. As we headed towards the door, red and white bags in hand, I hesitated.
Me: "Can we swing by customer service?"
Husband: "Why?"
Me: "I want to take my hot rollers back."
Mind you, we had just spent the previous hour at Ulta, pricing and comparing roller sets. I'm sure you can imagine the look on my hubby's face. XD
The generous folks at
Apothica.com have kindly offered to send one of my lovely followers a $50.00 gift card. The really great thing about their website is that they offer only the
crème de la crème of beauty products, fragrances, goodies for your home. They even have a section for the man in your life! Shopping on Apothica.com has been a dream come true for my husband and me. While I hem and haw over what to buy, he plays Madden. It works well. ;)
Each of these items are under $50.00 -- and definitely on my wish list!
