Ulta Damage

Sunday, February 02, 2014

While everyone else in the United States are glued to their television watching the Superbowl, I'm sitting on my bed ogling at these photos I took of my latest Ulta purchase. I think one of the best thing about going crazy with makeup hauls is photographing them after. I find it quite calming and enjoyable to take snaps of my purchases and I'm also definitely one of those girls who takes pictures of their meals when they go out to restaurants (guilty... I think sometimes I embarrass the people who eat out with me too :P).

Yesterday was the last day for the 20% off deal at Ulta, PLUS they had a buy 1 get 1 50% off for Maybelline and L'Oreal products. Uhh... Which crazy beauty fanatic wouldn't be rushing off with such a good steal going on??? I hauled my butt to Ulta immediately after finding out.



Uhm... I'm kinda embarrassed of how much I bought. *Nervous laughter*


So, I'm going to admit something... When I brought up all my items to the register I had about 6 additional items that I wanted to buy, but I decided to drop them. The reason being was that these 6 items were all prestige products and unfortunately, I was not sent the 20% coupon code FOR prestige items. *sad sigh* Sooo... I decided to decrease my total bill by HALF and left those items behind. Still sad facing at this moment... I'm sure my wallet and bank account are partying it up right now though.

Anyways, I won't go into details of ALL the products I purchased and no reviews will be included in this post. If anyone is interested in me going into depth about any of these items, let me know either by email or commenting the post!



Face brushes purchases:

Hair product purchase:

Batiste Dry Shampoo in Paisley - P.S. This product is my ultimate LIFE SAVER... I don't shampoo my hair everyday so I practically use this product to DEATH. If I could marry this, I would.



Skin/Makeup cleansing purchases:

Eye products purchases:

(Left to right) - Almay Shimmer-i kit in 421, Almay Powder Shadow in 401, and Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Cream Gel Shadow in Tough as Taupe



Lippies purchases:

Yush. I'm sitting here giggling about my purchases just because I haven't hauled so much makeup in awhile and specifically INSIDE a beauty store. Normally I'm more of an online shopper so when I went into Ulta, I probably spent two hours browsing the whole store...

Once again, if anyone is curious about any of these products, let me know and I'd love to write a paragraph or two about them! :)

  1. :O! Ya, I'm not much of a sports enthusiast either. Been eyeing those Real Techniques brushes, but haven't given in yet T___T! Also, that Instant Age Rewind too. Love the haul, I'm sure your wallet is appreciating that... *it's time to stop* moment.

    1. Give innnnn to it! LOL. They are really good to be honest. $5-10 per brush is not too hefty of a price either.

      Hahaha, yeah, my wallet was probably in depression mode the minute I stepped into Ulta.

  2. When everyone was watching the Superbowl, I was doing my nails LOL. I only watched the halftime show for Bruno Mars. :3 I'm so jelly of you, I have been staring down Ulta's website and my wallet was probably praying that I don't put anything in my cart. Haha. Nice haul though! Everything looks nice! :D
