Mini Haul

Hello again! I'm back with a mini haul. I went shopping today with my mom before I have to go to work today. We went to Ulta, Ross and Target, where I picked up some goodies. I bought a Burt's Bees Acne Solutions and some Burt's Bees lip balm. At Target I picked up Rimmel's Fix & Perfect primer and Physicans Formula Healthy Wear SPF 50 Powder Foundation. I'm hoping I love the Healthy Wear, because I am one of those people that burn then tan, and that is just no fun at all.

I picked up the Stila It Girl palette at Ulta, and managed to get a great deal on it! The palette itself is only $9.99, and Ulta currently have a $5 off coupon if you spend $10 (you can find it here) so I got it for only $5. Woohoo!

The colors are (left to right)
lame, chloe and kitten

Look at that shine! I definitely think this is a must have. And if you use the coupon, it's only $5, how can you say no to that?

Mini Ulta Haul

I stopped by my local Ulta yesterday with my Grandmother and accidentally found some new beauty products. I say accidentally because I am trying to save at the moment, but oh well. These are items I was planning on getting soon anyway. Least interesting first, I got the Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask. It smells just like mint toothpaste! I've only used the mask once, but it is lovely. I'll have to see how it works over time though.

I also got some items from Stila. I have been looking forward to getting the Stila travel palettes, but hadn't seen them anywhere locally, and didn't want to order them online in case the lip/cheek color melted in the mail. Lucky for me they had the U.S.A and Tokyo ones at my Ulta. Plus with my $20 Stila purchase, I got a free full sized lip glaze in water melon.

These are the eyeshadows in the "road to radiance
across the u.s.a." palette

snow bunny, valley girl, southern belle, city chick


These are the eyeshadows in the "trendsetting in tokyo" palette:

sake, kawai, shibuya, peace (left to right)

I have to say, the color payoff for the lighter shades is wonderful, but the darker shades seem to need more product for a dark color. Which is nice, since I tend to apply makeup with a heavy hand and want to avoid raccoon eyes. I love the watermelon lip glaze. It smells a bit like watermelon gum, and the color is a nice soft pink. I definitely want to try more Stila lip glazes, and I hope to get my hands on all the Stila travel palettes.

Have you tried the Stila travel palettes? What Stila lip glazes should I try next?
