I... bought too much stuff... Sephora/ Ulta/ more haul November 2020

So yeah... Sephora VIB Sale... I placed 3 orders... I ordered some things from Ulta and I just ordered some items from the Alamar Cosmetics Encanto line... There's a lot.

I'm going to start out with the Encanto Line because this was something I had to have as soon as I found out about it... and I've never heard of Alamar before... I didn't know much about it... but I needed it.

Alamar Cosmetics Encanto Line

So I ordered the Eyeshadow Palette because it looks really fun and different than anything I have. I ordered the Mirror because its cute and I know I'll use that all the time- even though I have 3 other mirrors... I ordered the blush in Hermosa Rosa- which is the peachier color and the Sun Soaked highlighter in Flex Alert. The face products and eye products look SO BEAUTIFUL... I'm really excited to try this brand and... I'm just so exciting for this package to arrive.

Sephora VIB Sale

Okay- so I have some that I haven't received and some that I have... I'll start with what I haven't gotten yet because I have almost nothing to say about them since I haven't tried them yet.

So I got some things from the Sephora Collection because it was 30% off and you didn't need a coupon code- so I actually was able to use my points with this too... so I remember liking their blushes, so I ordered 2 of them. The Matte Perfection Blush Duo in English Rose and the Golden Hour Luminizing Powder in Dusk. These both look so pretty- they look like colors I'll wear a lot and I just thought they'd be good.

I also wanted to try the Perfection Mist Airbrush Foundation... I've been wanting to try one of these Spray Foundations for a while... I know Dior has one I'm not going to try... but this seems like it would be fun.

And I got the Retractable Rouge Gel Lip Liner in the color Nothin But Nude. I've heard these are good and I know I'll use lip liners... so this is good.

I also got the Natasha Denona Face and Eye Palette in the color Light. I've heard so many good things about this and I know this is something I'll use a lot... so I didn't think about it as much at first... and then I saw it and I was like "alright we're just going to add this to my cart."

And I want to get myself some fancier lipsticks now that I'm 30... I wanted to treat myself a bit and I was between getting this or one of the Nars Audacious Lipsticks... and I decided on this because I thought I'd use it more... the Dior Addict Lip Glow in Berry. I've wanted this for years and I've resisted buying it... but this time I got it. I needed it.

Now for the rest of everything...

I got 2 things from Replica... this is quickly becoming a favorite perfume brand of mine... and I like it a lot. The Autumn Vibes travel spray. I'm wearing this now and it really is a nice scent for Autumn. I'm not sure I'd purchase the full size of this... but if I finish up the travel spray I'll probably buy it again. It's just a nice seasonal scent.

The other thing I got was the duo of the smaller sizes of the Bubble Bath and the By The Fireplace scent. I really like both of these scents, especially By The Fireplace. It's such a nice Fall and Winter scent... it's just so good.

I also got the Onesize Three Queens Set that has the Primer, Setting Powder and Setting Spray. This setting Spray is pretty unique because it has a cooling feeling and its cloud- like. It feels kind of like hairspray for your face... but safer. I like the primer and the powder a lot too!

I really liked the Rare Beauty Lip Souffle that came in my Rare beauty favorites kit but the color was just a red color... so I wanted to try something I'd use more- so I got their Matte Lip Cream Duo which came with a full size and a sample size of more neutral colors.

I also decided to get a small size of the Adwoa Beauty Baomint Shampoo- I like the deep conditioner a lot and I wanted to try the shampoo too.

Ulta

I actually ordered a few things from Ulta... and I think I'll just mention all of them.

I decided to place an order with my Ulta Points because I was having some trouble with my account and they were merging the points I have from 2 different accounts... and I was afraid the points would disappear and I had quite a lot... so I decided to spend what I had on some things I had been wanting to try.

So I got 3 palettes. 2 high end and one Colourpop. The Colourpop Palette I got was the Nightmare Before Christmas Palette... I love this and I'm a sucker for the colourpop collections... it's bad. But the Lizzie McGuire Palette is one of my favorites and that was like a hidden gem. This one I've tried a couple of times and it's pretty good. The color selection is a little weird- but I do like it overall. I also got the Oogie Boogie lipstick from this line because it looked like a pretty color I would wear a lot.

Then I got the Anastasia Beverly Hills Primrose Palette. I love Anastasia eyeshadows and this is a nice face palette with blushes in it too! It's very pigmented and it just looks pretty!

I also got the Lorac Fairytale Palette. This is a really nice palette. I used to love Lorac back when the Pro Palettes came out. These palettes are a lot of colors for $35 also. It's a nice everyday palette that isn't totally just neutrals.

I also got the Tree Hut Tidings of Joy Holiday Trio Gift Set. So far I've only tried the Sugar Plum scent- but I've smelled all of them and they smell great and I really like the Tree Hut scrubs.

So that was all with my points... they also sent a couple of coupons and I wanted to get some Mac Items... so I got the Whisper of Guilt Highlighter. This used to be a huge cult classic product that was limited edition... but of corse Mac Rereleased it a few years later... and it's really good! I like it a lot! I also got the lipsticks in Cherish and Snob. I love the Mac Lipstick formula and... even though I don't wear lipstick a lot now... I might soon.

I also got the Tarte Maneater Blush and Glow Cheek Plump... No idea what a cheek plump means... but this is a good cream blush. Nice color and its easy to apply!

There was also a Tarte Beauty Break deal at the time so I got mini sizes of a Tarte Primer, the Big Ego Mascara, and a blush and lip product. I like the primer a lot so far- I forget what it's called but it is good!

I also stopped in store and got more of my Kneipp Joint and Muscle Epsom Salt and Foam Bath and I got an Essence Mascara called Bye Bye Panda Eyes- which is a tubing mascara.

OHHH I also forgot one order I got the I Heart Revolution x Elf Palette, the Makeup Bag (which I also got for my sister) The Wet n Wild x Little Twin Stars Brush Cup and that came with a HUGE gift With Sample bag!

Colourpop

I had to get the Colourpop Rudolph Collection. I got the Palette and the I think You're Cute lipstick set. I'm so excited for this collection... there's a lot of cute Christmas Makeup this year... and I'm here for it!

Bye!
