Ulta Mini-Haul...again

Let me just start of by saying how much I love Ulta and how much I love the picture that I took of all of the wonderful things I bought there! 




1. Real Techniques Silicon Liner Brush:

I had tried winged eyeliner once before and didn't like the way it looked. I tried it again recently and I loved it! One of my best friends is amazing with makeup and she has been giving me such great advice on makeup! She showed me this brush and I just had to get it! At first I thought it was strange that it wasn't made like a normal brush and made of silicone but that makes it so much easier to put the eyeliner on! Plus it was only like five bucks, highly recommended!

2. NYX Gel Liner and Smudger:

I've only used it as an eyeliner and I absolutely love it! it was cheap and you really don't have to use that much to get the job done! It stays on all day and looks great! Also, it comes of super easy with eye makeup remover wipes so, if you mess up it's super easy to fix! Also, highly recommended.

3. Ulta Cheek Color in Infatuation:

I was nervous about buying a blush without trying it before hand but the store was having a sale so I figured I should try it out! I'm not really sure how I del about it. The powder is suuuuper packed in and I feel like I struggle a little bit to even get the powder onto a brush! I might have to try another brand. Any suggestions?

4. Ulta Double Duty Lip Stain and Balm Drama:

I looooove this stain! Its the perfect color for anything! I love stains because you don't have to keep reapplying all day and it never smudges, so perfect! With this stain though you do have to put on a few coats but its totally worth it, definitely recommended, they have a bunch of great colors!

5. Ulta Matte 247:

For some reason their lipstick colors don't have names, just numbers! This one is the top one on my hand. I loooooove this color! I went to grab it to look up the number and I ended up putting it on just for fun (its 11:00 at night, whoops!) I also love matte colors so I couldn't go wrong!

6. Ulta Matte 221:

I love this color too! It's not matte but I love the little bit of shimmer that it does have! It's a subtle pink but it's still completely different than all of the others that I have. I definitely recommend the Ulta lipsticks


Have you tried any of these products? Have any favorite Ulta products?

Ipsy Bag: December

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, time has gotten away from me! I recently started a new job and had my first ever finals week in college. You could say that I have been sort of busy! But, now I'm back and totally ready to brag about the amazing new Ipsy bag I received this month! One of my friends recently signed up for Ipsy and received her first bag this month, she loved it! If you haven't signed up yet, I really don't know what you're waiting for! Here's what I got this month!


1. NYX Lip Butter (Red Velvet)- This lip butter was definitely made just for me. I love lip butter and red velvet is pretty much my most favorite thing ever! (I'm eating a slice of red velvet cheese cake as I write this post) It goes on so smoothly and really hydrates my lips!

2. Pixi liquid eye shadow- The color is sort of like a bronzish gold color! I haven't tried it yet and I'm a little worried too. It seems very liquidy and I'm not too sure how I am going to like having that on my eye lids. I'll have to try it out soon!

3. BWC Facial Cleanser- I havent had the opportunity to use this product yet either. I have suuuuper sensitive skin and this cleanser is supposed to be perfect for that. I looked online and the cleanser got amazing reviews. I'm very excited to try this and see how it works

4. Make-up brush- There's actually no name anywhere on the brush or the packaging that it came in. I can tell you that I absolutely adore this brush! It's so soft and applies the makeup perfectly. I'll have to look on the website and see who distributes the brush. Even if you don't receive and Ipsy bag each month, you can visit the website and see what is given out each month!

5. Tarte: Lights Camera Lashes Mascara: Love love love love love. I don't really know what else to say! It's great!

Do you receive and Ipsy bag each month? What did you get?!

Ulta Mini Haul

A new Ulta recently opened up in the mall by my house! I had never been in one before but I was so excited to try it. I had been inside a few times just with friends or to pick up a gift, I had never had the opportunity to look around and shop for myself. On Black Friday we stopped at Ulta and I had time to shop. I have to say, I love what I found!



1. Not Your Mother's:Kontty To Nice Conditioning Detangler- I have never needed detangler before because my hair had always been short, but now that its longer, detangler is a must! I've heard of the brand from my friends and I knew they had loved it, so I figured I would give it a shot. I have used it twice and I love it! You do have to spray a lot on your hair but it does work really well! 

2. Not Your Mother's: Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray- Another thing I had heard that my friends loved! I haven't had the chance to try it yet, but I'm very excited to see how it works! 

3. NYX: Tea Rose: Again, I had never used colored lipstick before. One of my friends had recently gotten me hooked on it! So, I figured since I was at Ulta, I should pick up a new color! I'm more into the darker colors because I think they work for me, I also love Matte colors. This one is dark and shiny but I actually really like it! I'll definitely be sung NYX more often. 

4. Tree Hut: Shea Sugar Scrub Pomegranate Açaí- I have this same sugar scrub in another scent and I absolutely love it! After I had really bad sun burn last summer, my aunt gave me this exfoliant to help remove the dead skin and it was absolutely amazing. Now I use it only twice a week and it makes me feel refreshed! I wouldn't recommend using it more than that.

Do you have any fun buys from a beauty supplies store?
