Something’s Missing Ulta Haul
It’s that time of year where my hauls stop making sense…because I am buying GIFTS and I’m only showing you what I got for myself…
I still haven’t gotten that Naked Palette out of the Mini Brands x Ulta Balls…I did get an Allnighter Setting Spray, so I’m getting closer at least.
I got a brand new Maybelline Teddy Tint in “Mascara Tear” ($12.99) because I thought it was a lip stain…Benetint is a stain, but Teddy Tint is just a regular matte liquid lipstick. On it’s own, it dried tacky and I hated it. I tried it as a liner with a gloss on top and it was very nice…I need to stop buying such cheap ass lip products…
No hints on the gift I got or WHO I got it for…but I was able to use a $15 off code AND the last $36 of Ulta points I had stashed…and I STILL qualified for free gift with my $60 purchase…it came with Lancome Renergie H.C.F. Triple Serum; it Cosmetics Confidence in a Cleanser; Kiehl’s Ferulic Brew Rejuvenating Facial Essence (huh?); a deluxe sample bottle of Viktor & Rolf Good Fortune; and Lancome Idole Lash Mascara.
…I think I have another Ulta order sitting on my couch.
A Little Saturday Haul
Last Saturday, Lily wanted a haircut and I had just gotten my $25 off Beauty Services Voucher from Ulta for achieving Diamond Status, so we turned it into a whole day with Taco Bell and shopping…
While she was getting her hairs did with my coupon, I decided to use my free product coupon to pick a new foundation. Ulta expanded the eligible items, so I landed on Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer in “Breeze” (regularly $40). I was initially going to try their new Serum Foundation, but the saleslady explained that it is HEAVIER than regular foundation, and I definitely don’t need that. It’s a perfectly serviceable concealer that matches my existing products. Cool, cool.
The ColourPop x Stranger Things collab is already on clearance, so I snagged the ColourPop Stranger Things Chapter One Eyeshadow Palette ($13, down from $26). It’s got a lot of outrageous 80s colors and glitters, so perfect for how I am feeling these days. I also snagged another Zuru Mini Brands x Ulta Ball ($9.99). I want that damn mini Naked Palette! I didn’t get it this time…but I will. At least I got to use a $3.50 off $15 coupon.
Bath & Body Works had $2.75 Wallflower Refills, so I ran in and got 10. Most are “Rose Water & Ivy”, but I picked a few other scents to go with.
Our last stop before our mandatory shopping Blizzards was checking out Katy Budget Books, which is a local version of Half Price Books. It’s a great store with an awesome staff! No hate to HPB, but there isn’t one close. The closest one is all the way in Sugarland! I found a retro (is early Y2K can be considered retro) crocheting book called The Happy Hooker and I snagged the Star Trek Cookbook for my husband…and all the recipes are inedible. At least 50% of them involve organ meat. No one in the house is brave enough to try Klingon Brain Stew.
