Yes I went back to
Ulta, no I do not want to talk about the compulsive shopping that I clearly
have. This time I am just gonna go over
what I got and not so much about prices. The sale was still the same, still
tons of options and I was satisfied with my purchases. That being said, I am
done with the makeup shopping for awhile I do not need anything else….unless it
is an awesome deal.
Chunky Dunk Hydrating Lippie in Caramel Martini cdhl09
I was only able to
find one more Chunky Dunk in the clearance section so I scooped it up. It looks
a lot darker than it actually is. On the site it is described as
"caramel" which is spot on.
The packaging is much darker than caramel, but when swatched it is
caramel. Good color for fall, and could be a nude if applied lightly.
Xtreme Shine Lip Cream in Dolly Girl xl01
NYX has every kind
of gloss, cream, or lipstick a girl could ever ask for. This is my first xtreme
shine so of course I got the brightest one the had. "Bright fuschia"
and yes it is that. I am seriously putting it on my lips for the first time as
I write this. It has a different feel than the other glosses from them. The
formula is thicker and much more pigmented. I did one swipe for both lips and I
got the exact color. A lip liner is a must with this, I feel like it could
easily run just because it is so pigmented. There is a heavier feel than the
other glosses, I almost feel like when I first put on a lip stain. I like it
though, there is no glitter or shimmer in it at all, its pure shine.
Matte Finish Setting Spray mss01
This is a repurchase
because I love it so much! I bought my first one right before Valentines Day, I
knew I would need it at the flower store and it worked wonders. Valentines Day
is hell at a flower store and I wanted to look awake and not like I wanted to
punch people. This helped my makeup stay looking good, and I love anything
matte. I highly recommend this stuff if you want to try a setting spray.
Illuminator in Ritualisitc ibb04
Highlighters are all
over the place these days. It is hard to find a makeup brand that doesn't have
a highlighter in their lines. I have other brands of highlighters and this
would have to be my favorite. The power is super fine and silky so it looks great
anywhere you put it. The website says "gold sheen" but it isn't an
overwhelming gold, subtle sheen for sure.
Butter Lip Balm In Biscotti blb06
Like everything else
in the butter line, the balm is amazing. I would say that it is the matte
product in the line. It is a balm, but it doesn’t have a shine to it so I like
to think of it as the matte version of the colors in the butter line. I have
three other of these and they are perfect for when I want a little color, but
not something high maintenance like a gloss or lipstick. For me, these are
perfect for work because I get a little color but don't have to worry about
reapplying in a mirror or anything. This color is "nude with slight pink
undertones" and that is dead on. It isn't a bold color, but I like it. If
you need color, but don't want the hassle of a gloss or lipstick, I highly
recommend the butter lip balms.
Soft Matte Lip Cream in Athens smlc15
The soft matte lip
creams might be my favorite matte lip product out there. There is a large
variety of colors and the texture is to die for. It feels like you are putting
whipped frosting on your lips. It is just so soft you just wanna slather it all
on. I have a bunch of colors of these (duh) but I didn't have a nude one that I
loved, so when I saw this one I was like yep gotta have it. It is a "matte
peach beige" and it is the perfect nude for me.
Soft Matte Lip Cream in Addis Ababa smlc07
Finally I found it!
I have been looking for this color forever and everywhere I looked had ones
that had clearly been used. When I went to Ulta and saw this in the display I
crossed my fingers and checked the one in the back and found it to be brand
new. I may or may not have done a little dance out of joy. I have been lusting
after this color since the line came out and can't wait to wear this out. It is
"bright fuschia" so basically it is the matte version of "dolly
girl" xtreme shine gloss. Clearly I like bright colors, but that’s
whatever.
The Natural Shadow Palette tns01
Another thing
crossed off my wish list! Now I secretly dream of owning the Urban Decay Naked
Palettes, but at $54 a pop it will always be a dream, so for now cheap dupes
are my life. I will say I got this for less than $5 so hell yeah I got it. It
has six "nude" colors, 4 matte, 1 glitter, and 1 shimmer. This will
be perfect for when I want to wear eye shadow, but nothing too intense.
Butter Gloss in Cupcake blg18
I will never have
enough butter glosses until I have the whole line, they are just that good. I
have pale skin and even the darkest colors they have work for me. Shocker, this
color is fairly bright. "Hot pink" yes hot pink and I love it. Perfect
summer color and a great pop of color for any look. I think I will be doing a
giant swatch of all nyx products so everyone can see the different shades and
how they look on lips with and without primer.
Matte Lipstick in Street Cred mls24
I am all about
options so when there is a sale I stock up. This is a "raspberry
pink" and it is adorable. It is bright enough for summer, but will look
great for other seasons. While I love my gloss and shine, there is something so
perfect about a matte color. It can be both casual and formal. I love that it
allows me to wear a bright color without being too over the top.
Matte Bronzer in Light mbb01
I am always on the
market for a great bronzer. My hair is naturally blonde and dye it dark brown
so I use bronzer every day just so I am not too washed out. Personally, I am
not a fan of shimmer bronzers for my face just because I have acne and acne
scars so it does not look cute on me so I am all about the matte bronzers. The
powder is super fine and soft and the color is not orange so thank goodness for
that. Can't wait to try it out!
Not Your Mother's Brand Knotty to Nice Detangler and
Lock Luster Oil Treatment
Now these are both
repurchases and I will keep buying these until they stop making them, and then
I will cry after that. These two are my go to hair products and I use them both
almost every day. I have reviewed the detangler already and I will continue to
use it. It works wonders on my hair and for $5.99 I will gladly buy it as often
as possible. The oil treatment has been a lifesaver for me. I have long, color
treated hair that gets dry on the bottom and greasy at the top. A quarter size
amount works for me and just leaves my hair feeling smooth, soft, and healthy.
A little goes a long way with this product, I bought my first bottle over a
year ago and there is still a good amount left I just wanted to get some
because it was buy one get one 50% off.
There you go, my
last Ulta haul for awhile. I hope everyone takes advantages of the sales they
have going on and let me know what you get! If anyone sees anything I like feel
free to buy it for me, kidding, kinda. Until next time.
