Lip oils have come and gone out of my life but I’m pretty much convinced iNNBEAUTY Glaze Lip Oil are the best! I think at this point in my makeup life I’ve collected all of them. Can I just take this moment to recommend the shade Cinnamon Bun? Such a gorgeous nude!

If you’re looking for juicy, hydrated, shiny lips this is the formula you need!

4 stars out of 5

If Homer Simpson was a real person I’m pretty sure Lanolips Glazed Donut 101 Ointment Multi-Balm would be his must have. Glazed Donut is one of two new Spring 2024 flavors that recently launched in the Lanolips Collection and it’s available now and on sale at ulta.com! As a lip balm lover (particularly flavored ones) I knew I had to purchase this. Do I need another flavored lip balm? No. Did I want a donut flavored one? A thousand times, yes.

I picked this up on a recent Ulta trip and I’m happy to report you can happily use it as a multi-balm should you like. I was concerned it would be too heavily fragranced for use all over but the scent isn’t overpowering.

I’ve Said It Before I’ll Say It Again The Real Techniques Everyday Eye Essentials Makeup Brush Set Is a Deal

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

You must be tired of me recommending the same products over and over again but when they go on sale I can’t help but urge you to go grab them! I’ve been recommending the Real TechniquesEveryday Eye Essentials Makeup Brush Set for several hundred years now as it’s such a great deal especially when it goes on sale at Ulta. I have my set (the one pictured here) for a few years now and the brushes have been very well loved and as you can see they STILL LOOK BRAND NEW! At the moment the Real Techniques Everyday Eye Essentials Makeup Brush Set is $13.99 and it includes eight brushes. And let me tell ya, I’ve purchased a lot of brush sets in my time but I’m always out a brush or two when I do. I won’t always use every one and sometimes or two get pushed to the side. But I actually USED all the brushes in this set! It literally has everything I need to create an eye look! The set is $13.99 so each brush comes out to $1.75 each! And trust me, I’ve washed them hundreds of time and they are still standing strong.

The shade includes a Shading Brush, Essential Crease and Defining Crease Brush, Definer Brush, Medium Brush for Shadows, Fine Liner, Smudge Brush, and a Lash Separator. And yes, I even use the Lash Separator when dealing with thicker or gooier mascaras!

If you need an essential set for your eyes I can’t recommend this one enough! It’s on sale now at Ulta along with the entire Real Techniques Brush Collection that’s 30% off! Plus if you spend $15 use code 621225 for $3.50 off.

How NARS Orgasm Edge Talc-Free Powder Blush Looks On My Cheeks

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.
4 stars out of 5

NARS Orgasm Edge Talc-Free Powder Blush is a new matte shade of the beloved and cult-favorite shade Orgasm. I’m pretty sure everyone has been waiting forever for NARS to finally release Orgasm in a shimmer-free formula and we’re finally getting that with NARS Orgasm Edge. I wasn’t going to pick this up as I love Orgasm as it is and I do prefer shimmer finish blushes but I decided what the heck, why not, I’ll try it. Just a heads up but with this new Talc-Free formula the original Orgasm shade is a lot different than it once was. So, if you do love the shade and it’s available to you at a department store you might want to grab a backup as the shade has changed!

As for Orgasm Edge, well, it’s not really a peachy pink as described by NARS but the application does surprise!

Here’s What I Purchased at the Sephora Sale

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

The final days of the Sephora Spring Savings Event are here! I did an online order and yesterday I headed in store to looking around and see what else I might need. Did you bother shopping the sale? I heard a lot of people felt like they didn’t need anything! I did a little damage! Also, I may still go back for the Jo Malone Frangipani Flower Cologne! That scent is one of the strongest I’ve seen from Jo Malone. It lingers so beautifully and it smells like Hawaii!

I waffled back and fourth on this purchase but I finally said yes to the Forever Glow Maximizer Longwear Liquid Highlighter from Dior. I got it in Rosy and I sort of want it in Peachy too. Rosy seems to work great as a blush for me. I was worried it wouldn’t but I headed in store to play with it yesterday and it builds quite nicely!

I also finally decided to try Huda Beauty’s Easy Bake Loose Baking and Setting Powder. I got the mini ones in Peach Pie and Banana Bread. I use love Hard Candy Sheer Envy Bake, Brighten & Set Loose Finishing Powder to set the concealer under my eyes but I hear so many raves how flawless this look I decided to finally try it!

I finally grabbed the Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder as well. I tried this in store and holy cow it’s so smooth and flawless. I wasn’t sure if my dry skin would like it but it looks AMAZING on!

I grabbed the new Laneige Bouncy + Firm Radiant Boosting Sleeping Mask. I love the original and this one sounds great as well!

I also grabbed UD’s new Face Bond Self Setting Waterproof Foundation. I normally struggle finding a shade in UD’s foundation formulas but I found a perfect match and I love how flawless this looks on my skin! I was going to snag it during the UD sale but I wanted to see the shades in person so I did a Sephora store purchase for this one!

Yes, I absolutely indulged in the Blooming Romance Palette and I regret nothing. It’s stunning! The shades are so unique and beautiful! I can’t wait to use it!

I grabbed a Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Luminous Powder Blush and I was pleasantly surprised how much I loved it. I was convinced it would be dry but it was silky, smooth, and had the most gorgeous glow on my cheeks. I loved it so much I went back for a second shade!

Concealer junkie that I am I also grabbed a few new concealers. The Saie Slip Tint turned into a really nice purchase and I grabbed the Real Flawless Serum Concealer from Laura Mercier.

I also grabbed the caliray Freedreaming Blurring Lightweight Skin Tint that’s on sale! I used my code for an extra discount which made this a nice purchase! It’s very watery but I actually love how it looks on my skin!

I also grabbed the Dieux Eye Gel and the Forever Eye Mask Reusable 100% Silicone Patches.

I think I’m done now 🙂 What about you? What did you get?
