Lots of fantastic news from Ulta today! MAC will be sold at Ulta shortly but not only that Ulta also sells Models Own now! This adorable brand has always been a fond favorite of mine and I could believe my eyes when it popped up at Ulta.com today! I’m terribly excited about this.

Ulta continues to grow it’s catalog of brands at a very rapid pass in 2016 and now into 2017 with both higher end offerings from brands like Guerlain and NARS and even budget friendly ones like BH Cosmetics. Not to mention their International catalog is growing daily with fine Korean beauty brands and now British ones too such as Makeup Revolution.

Not to sound greedy but can we get Borjois Paris back and possibly can you bring over Barry M?

I’ll be waiting 😉

Shop Models Own now at ulta.com and hopefully soon in stores as well!

MAC will be sold at Ulta.com starting May 7th! Can you imagine being able to buy MAC at Ulta? Pretty damn cool! The collection launches online starting April 23rd but you’ll only be able to browse offerings until the official May 7th launch date. Even though Estee Lauder started showing up at Ulta a few short months ago I would have never imagines that Ulta would also start carrying the MAC Cosmetics range as well. And yet again, another example of how Ulta is striving hard to become a better version of Sephora. Guerlain, NARS, and more have started to pop up at Ulta. Now, we just need free shipping to tip things over into a perfect beauty world.

This is truly fantastic news but the question that begs answering would be, “Are you getting all the limited edition collections too or just the core collection?” And by the way, will you carry the entire collection in stores or this exclusively online? These questions will keep me up at night until I get some sold answered but now I’ll happily smile to myself about the fact MAC is now sold at Ulta.

Yay!

Are you excited about this news?

Do share!

I picked up the new, limited edition Wet n Wild Kabuki Brush ($4.99) that launched with the Wet n Wild Queen of my Hearts Spring 2017 Collection. I’m an utter glutton for punishmentas I knew this wasn’t going to be a great buy but I admit I get sucked in my the cutesy heart, lace, and pink packaging.

No will power, people. NONE!

Brace yourself, coconut everything is coming for Summer and the new Marc Jacobs Beauty Re(cover) Perfecting Coconut Setting Mist ($39) kicks this trend off. I would just like to be the sole person that stands up to say coconut water extract so doesn’t work for me. I have coconut mists, coconut micellar water, etc…and if anything, coconut water seems to mattify versus hydrate. Am I missing a point here?

Marc Jacobs Beauty Re(cover) Perfecting Coconut Setting Mist formula is a fine mist spray that they call a 24-hour makeup setting mist which hydrates and gives you a dew glow. Hmmm….there’s that glow thing again! Cover FX, Wander Beauty, Glam Glow, they all promise the same “glow” when using their mists.

Marc Jacobs formula promises a dewy glow as it sets makeup and hydrates skin without leaving behind a sticky or tacky feel. This mist is formulated with five coconut actives:

• Coconut alkanes for lasting wear
• Coconut milk for deep hydration
• Coconut water for refreshing electrolytes
• Coconut polysaccharides to help condition skin
• Coconut-derived fragrance

Marc Jacobs has a lot going on with coconuts this upcoming season including a new Dew Drops Coconut Gel Highlighter that already launched and a coconut bronzer that will be launching shortly.

Marc Jacobs Beauty Re(cover) Perfecting Coconut Setting Mist is available at Sephora.com.
