Ulta,Em Cosmetics, and Sephora Haul

Okay- just going to do a quick post of some things Ive ordered from em cosmetics... and I ran into Ulta and grabbed a few things too so... I’ll share it all.

Okay so for Em Cosmetics... I’m not sure why I’ve never tried the brand before. I’ve heard nothing but good things about everything I just decided- now I want to try some. They just released a cushion highlighter that looks really nice... so I thought why not put an order in before and see if I want to try that!

I got the Faded Clementine eye palette. I wanted to try one of their eye palettes and this looked like colors I don’t think I have in a palette- so I grabbed this one. Its very pretty and pigmented. I think it might be too pigmented! I always end up getting more than I think I need on my brush- but other than that so far I like it. I’ve only tried it two times but it’s cute, small and easy to use!

Next I got the color drops serum blush in the shade Soft Amethyst. I used this for the first time today and it’s really good! I got a deeper color because sometimes cream blush doesn't show up that full coverage. This one did but its also really easy to blend out and use. It looks dewy but not too dewy. I’m excited to see how it wears throughout the day... but so far I love it!

And I got their Infinite Lip Cloud liquid lipstick In the shade Rose Nude! It’s such a pretty rose neutral shade... I really like it. It’s not too light and it just looks really nice on.

And it came with a free clear lipgloss-

which is nice!

And Ulta... I walked into to get more Kneipp Epsom Salts for Joint and Muscle. These work so so well! I just finished one of these and I needed more. I was thinking of getting the Bath oil also... but instead I got the Active Gel. It is supposed to be something you can run on aches and pains- I’ve used it on my feet and it felt really nice. It is kind of pricey... but I thought I might be able to use it. I do have a lot of aches from working.

Next up... well I guess all of these purchases were recommendations from Jessica Braun. She did an aesthetic makeup look that I watched on my lunch break before going in and she used the Milani Supercharged Blush and the Maybeline Master Strobe Light Highlight... so I got both. The Milani blush shade I got was Peach Thrill. Its nice- it shows up very dewy on my cheeks. And I got the shade 100 for the Maybelline and it just looks really nice and strobe-y on the cheeks. Very easy to use!

I made another stop at Ulta after work and decided to try some more products from the brand Kneipp as well. I got a small packet of their Lavender Vanilla Dream Time epsom salts- most of their epsom salts come in a single use packet to if you want to test out one bath before buying the $20 bag. I also got the bubble bath to go with that scent because I don't like the scent of the Joint and Muscle Epsom Salt- so covering it up with a bubble bath would be nice too.

I wanted some nude eyeliners too- so I got a couple from LA Girl. I got one of their Auto Line eyeliners in the nude shade- which I guess is called Super Bright and I got a gold one from their Shockwave eyeliner line. The shade I got for that was Gold Medal.

I also bought some things from Wet n Wild. I had heard their Tinted Hydrator was a nice light coverage foundation option- so I wanted to try that... and I wanted to try their spongebob squarepants sponge and I had to get the pineapple sponge holder for that too of corse.

Now for Sephora. I want to try some more things from Makeup by Mario- so right now I started with his Master Crystal Reflector in the shade Quartz. This is supposed to be a highlighter... but it's very glittery. Jessica Braun uses it to top her eyeshadows and it makes them stand out a bit more... so I wanted to try it that way.

I also got the new scent from Sol De Janiero which is Brazilian Crush Cheriosa '40. This is the same scent as the Bom dia bright cream and I like that a lot.

I also saw the Sephora Lipstories had a Libra shade- so I grabbed that on my way out too. Maybe I'll look up some sort of Zodiac Makeup Look thing.

Alright- that is everything! I hope you guys like this haul!
