ULTA BLACK FRIDAY HAUL! PART1



ULTA BLACK FRIDAY HAUL!

 
















Okay, So this post is going to be dedicated to Black Friday Shopping! Yes originally, I know I was going to make the first post be all my must have holy grail products, but I feel due to this shopping holiday I must make a post accordingly... I'm going to go through SOME of the products I purchased  but I'm going to cut it short to 8 SALE and some not so sale... items and give a FULL, HONEST , REVIEW! I did ALOT of online shopping with stores like MORPHE & (again) ULTA, so when the products come in a Black Friday Recap PART II will be posted!  Now lets get started!  (these products are in no particular order)

                      


1.  ARI BY ARIANA GRANDE HAIR PERFUME

                               ,

Okay So I get my hair done at ULTA (rather often) & my stylist keeps a bottle of this, I guess you would call it hair fragrance? at her station. I used it for the first time and YAAAASSS BIH I was like ohhhkay Grande you might have something here ( and of course girl, you know I HAD to buy it).  This is one classy YET sexy fragrance, and I would consider a must have for any fragrance collection. Plus HAIR FRAGRANCE? Really? that's trendy as fuhk! The best part is the PRICE,  it was only 20.00 for (might I add) a slightly large-ish decent sized bottle. Go getchu some gurl! ( and whip your hair around your man candy ! (just don't break your neck..)







                              







2.   " BARE MINERALS THANK YOU YOU'RE SO SWEET 8 PIECE EYE CANDY COLLECTION"




                    New from Bare Minerals is this 8 piece eyeshadow collection including shimmers, matte and transitional blending shadows, this collection is perfect for ANY makeup lover. Plus I couldn't help but fall in love with design I'm a sucker for a well designed product! With names like Cocoa, Angel Food cake & Dulce De Leche Its sure to satisfy any sweet tooth! Now any palette or whatever you might call this? (Ill stick with shadow box) They are going to be helllaa pricey. Now  I think I paid 20 bucks for this ( don't quote me) & it was originally 36$ and is a 88$ value this is a product that's worth the payout guuurl!






                           


 3. MARIO BADESCU FACIAL SPRAY








    Oh lawdy lawd. WHAT A PRODUCT. Now this product isn't anything new to most but it was part of my shopping trip (therefore included in "Ulta BlackFriday haul"). Now I'm only "slightly" obsessed with the Kardashians, & Mario Badescu is of course their Makeup Artist. Created by the KK's makeup artist, this facial spray is sure to be a win! Now not only is it GREAT to give dry dehydrated skin a boost, the pricing is the best part! There is a travel size as well as the original 4fl oz (large) (which runs ya only 7$ and travel is only 5$). Now if you ask me the travel size doesnt look so travel size... Its quite larger then any of the well known small travel carry on products on the market nowadays. Fresh simple ingredients including Aloe, Herbs, and Rosewater, this has become part of my normal skin care routine. It also looks fabulous when sprayed over your makeup setting spray as the last step in your makeup routine! #musthave










                                     
4. TOO FACED BORN THIS WAY CONCEALER





So I'm rather excited about sharing this product.... The one thing that is slightly aggravating
about being in love with prestige makeup is the prices and chances of a bust. This concealer right here....this right here is that ish. I absolutely love it, now an important detail which should go for all concealer purchases is to SWATCH, SWATCH, SWATCH. Please make sure your concealer is the correct shade nothing would be worse then a dark or too light under eye! But I have had absolutely ZERO issues with under eye creasing, oxidizing or the concealer not lasting. If your looking for a concealer too hang with you thru the toughest of days, you found your baby! It looks so natural and a little goes a long long way. Pair this with the Born This Way foundation, or even your must have personal foundation choice and SLAY BIH!  P.S that's some sassy packaging! #toofacedismyfriend



                                                


4. BECCA GLOW ON THE GO (MOONSTONE)
 GENIUS GENIUS GENIUS. So another shoutout to my stylist, she recommended I purchase the travel kit to get the most bang for my buck! Which is GENIUS this kit will last you forever, and little
goes a long way!Simply take two dots of the cream highlighter on the highest point of your cheek bones. Then blend in and add the powder highlight on top and VOILA MAGIC! No need to purchase the full size of both items, it was $20.00 for both! All wrapped up in one beautiful lil box. TIP: Use the right color highlighter for your skin tone, or for the occasion. Vamp it up at night and go sleek and chic during the day!






                                         
 
  5. IT COSMETICS HEAVENLY LUXE FLAT TOP BUFFING FOUNDATION BRUSH





So I'm an advocate that good brushes will make or break your makeup routine! That does not mean you have to buy a 40$ brush. Sigma, Morphe, BH cosmetics they all sell quality brushes at a decent price! Okay back to the purpose, this brush gives me LIFE. No really, I was very back and forth with using a brush or a beauty blender and let me tell you I was leaning towards the BB. Until I recently got this brush yesterday from ULTA, Now this wasn't on sale itself but I had been eyeing it for some time. For the perfect application put a little foundation on the back of your hand pat the brush down on the foundation to get it on the brush. Apply to face blending it in and bringing it down the jawbone/neck, and VOILA MAGIC you will have a beautiful airbrushed look! (be sure to set with setting/translucent powder)












                                

6. NIP + FAB VIPER VENOM FROWN FIX

         I have what I would call "TERRIBLY LARGE FORHEAD LINES". Haha, no it's not too terribly bad, but I do really hate (dislike) them. I actually ended up getting this for only $7.99 with an original price of $12.95.  I don't know if I'm crazy (I'd like to think not) But I have been using it for 2 days and honestly my fine lines do look  not as prominent and slightly smoother. I used to literally try ANYTHING for fine lines, when I came across NIP+FAB  as a brand I knew I had found something. So all in all ladies if you feel like your fine lines could use a little TLC, I would recommend this product. I'm not one to just recommend ANYTHING, that can be really aggravating I used to watch beauty bloggers on Youtube and ended up buying so many BS products just because THEY recommended it. DISCLAIMER: (So ladies/men I'm not paid nor am I sponsored, I keep it real even when the truth hurts!)














7. PUR 10TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION

4 IN 1 PRESSED MINERAL MAKEUP








So I was a little weary on buying yet ANOTHER  facial powder, due to my overwhelming collection of them. Especially (even though I love it) due to the gimmicky-ness of it. Now usually I don't end up loving every single product I purchase, maybe I got hella lucky this time? So I went to use this, I  took my powder brush and applied a light amount onto my cheek area & OMG. Ok firstly the coverage, I did not load up on the powder or apply several coats this was barely one swatch. My skin looked so creamy and just absolutely beautiful! Now another great quality is it also has a Broad Spectrum SPF 15 in it! All and all ladies and gents this powder is one badd beeetch! It was on Sale for only 29$ again the original price was somewhere around 35-39$. PUR Cosmetics has a lot of their makeup on sale, and still did even before BLACKFRIDAY!



8. BLONDE SEXY HAIR SHINING STAR SPRAY



So most of  us know this is a prestige brand of haircare, I ended up ONLY paying 6.96 for this!
This is a lot like a serum sheen spray, it also  enhances the blonde color  in your hair. Well not only does it do exactly that, It also makes your hair feel magical! YES magical,  It's perfect for either straightening your hair, or just adding a little shine and smoothing away any frizz or unruly hair! I've been a serum spray fan since L'oreal introduced Sleek & Shine Serum Spray & it was amazing, until they took it off the shelves :(  but if your looking for something to do exactly as I described this will be your new bestfriend  and it  isn't like other products who make your hair look oily and unkempt it actually makes it look recharged, refreshed, and renewed! Plus its just the right size to pop in your purse for on the go. This is going to be the last product I'll be sharing, until part II when more products arrive in the mail and I get to use them, so I can give a complete honest review.
