My Trip to Ulta

Hello my friends.

So, yesterday I went to Ulta with my mom, and I ended up leaving with only two things (not by choice, I seriously need a job before I spend money, and I am trying to save up for my Euro trip!).
Anywhoooo, Ulta has a sale going on now on a lot of their own product. There are a lot of 2 for ___ deals. I got a lipstick and a nail polish for $6! Which I thought was a great deal because I think the lipstick would have been more than $6 by itself. Anyways I wanted to share how I feel about Ulta, because I recently read a lot of mixed reviews on the place.

I used to absolutely love Ulta--that was until I found out Bed Bath and Beyond (at least some of them) sell drugstore cosmetics at discounted prices!!! Ulta does, however carry NYX which in Colorado (as far as I know) is the only place you can get them. I love NYX jumbo pencils so this is super exciting for me.
I think that the mixed reviews on Ulta come from people misunderstanding what Ulta is. Ulta is not a place to get discounted high-end products or drugstore products. It is simply a less uptight version of Sephora who also has their own line and carries drugstore products and lots and lots of hair essentials. Ulta also sells a nice brand of makeup essentials, such as beauty blenders, power puffs, sponges, and brushes. The beauty blender I bought there was on $5! I know gossmakeupartist talked about how those were starting to be expensive from high end brands when really they are the same thing and you can get one for $5 US dollars at Ulta.  I hope this was helpful! Stay tuned for more. Until next time.
