A Drugstore + Cruelty-Free Ulta Haul

March 5, 2018

Ulta Haul
An Ulta recently opened up near me which is dangerous considering I’m a huge beauty enthusiast. It’s only been open for a week and I’ve already visited it twice! Today I’m sharing what I picked up, let’s look at the damage I did.

Ulta Haul
E.L.F. Hydrating Water Cleansing Cloths

I was drawn to these because of the robin egg blue colored packaging. I’ve tried some wipes from E.L.F. before but I’m not sure if they’re repackaged or completely new but I’ll try them and let you know if they’re good or not.
Freeman Detoxifying Charcoal + Black Sugar Mud Mask
This mask has been on my list for such a long time but I’ve never seen it in person until now. I’ve only tried it once so far but will be trying it a couple more times before deciding if I like it or not.

Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Chamomile, and Lavender
The newest addition to the Mario Badescu facial spray family. I’m a huge fan of their rose facial spray so when I heard that they made a lavender one I was really excited. I love the scent of lavender so I think I’m going to adore this mist.

Ulta Haul
Soap + Glory Clean On Me Creamy Clarifying Shower Gel
I wouldn’t have bought this if it wasn’t ‘buy 1, get 1 40% off’. Soap + Glory products smell amazing so I know I won’t be disappointed with these three products.

Soap + Glory The Righteous Butter Body Lotion
Obviously, I had to get the matching body lotion to go with the shower gel. I’ve already tried this a few times and I’m already in love with it! This lotion softens my skin leaving me feeling nice and hydrated.

Soap + Glory Hand Food Hydrating Hand Cream
Does anybody else get suckered in by the travel-size section near the Ulta counter? Cause I sure do! Which is why I bought this hand cream. Did I need this? Probably not. But I bought it anyway because I didn’t have a hand cream and it’s tiny! haha
Ulta Haul
Not Your Mother’s Naturals Coconut Milk + African Marula Tree Oil High Moisture Conditioner
I have very little hair conditioner left so I decided to buy one at Ulta because they have tons of options to choose from. I went with Not Your Mother’s because I was very intrigued by their Naturals line. They had a version for just about every hair type but I went with the one for dry hair because my hair has been feeling very damage lately. I will report back if I end up loving this product or not.
Pacifica Coconut Super Power Deep Conditioning Damage Control Mask
This is supposed to be the cruelty-free version of the Aussie 3-minute miracle, which was one of my favorite in-shower hair masks before I went CF. It’s like 4 times the price of the Aussie one but that’s the sacrifice you make when going cruelty-free. However, if you guys know of a similar product that’s cheaper let me know.

Not Your Mother’s In A Heart Beat Blow Dry Accelerator
Finding a cruelty-free heat protectant has been very tricky for me. Not Your Mother’s has one that I’ve tried before but it smelled horrendous! When I was in Ulta I open the bottle to see if they changed the formula but sadly they didn’t but I found this one next to it so I bought this one. This is supposed to be for blow-drying to use on wet hair but I thought it could work on dry hair too.

What do you normally buy at Ulta?

    I feel like such a soap and glory fangirl, the shower gel is like my all time favourite shower gel! The handcream is amazing too, it reminds me of marshmallows, so sweet and delicious 💖

    I can't wait to try the shower gel! It was really difficult to find Soap and Glory where I live before but now I can easier find it. I love their body scrubs! ♥

✨🪸🧜🏻‍♀️ It’s the final day of t ✨🪸🧜🏻‍♀️ It’s the final day of the mermaid readathon! Thank you so much for hosting this readathon @thebrightsidegirl! I had so much fun reading these mermaid/island/ocean/underwater books! I also enjoyed making these mermaid themed flat lays for the photo challenges and can’t wait until next year! Swipe to see all the books I read and the mermaid treasures I collected! 🧜🏻‍♀️🪸✨

📖 Day 14: Fave mermaid read
Technically, my favorite read wasn’t a mermaid book but an island book 😆 Beauty Queens by Libba Bray was my favorite read during this readathon! It’s about a group of pageant girls who get stranded on a mysterious island. I listened to the audiobook and was blown away! The author narrates the entire book and does different voices for each of the characters in the book, and there are a lot of characters! Highly recommend the audiobook! I’m not a fan of the cover though, it looks like a smutty book 😂🙈 Have you read Beauty Queens? 👸🏻

Stay tuned for a mermaid readathon recap blog post which I’ll be posting on my website later this week! If you participated in this readathon, what was your favorite read?🧜🏻‍♀️

🦀 Day 12: Ocean creature
How cute is this cookie! I was gifted this crab sugar cookie on my birthday because I’m a Cancer 😆 but I thought it would be perfect for today’s photo challenge!

I just started the second book in the Emily Windsnap series, Emily Windsnap and the Monster from the Deep. I’m assuming based on the title, there will be some sort of ocean creature involved, we will see! 🧜🏻‍♀️

🧜🏻‍♀️ Day 11: Mermaid in the title
Last year, I wanted to read The Mermaid from Jeju by Sumi Hahn but didn’t get the chance to. So, this year one of my goals during this mermaid readathon is to finish this book! Have any of you read this novel?

🧜🏼‍♂️ Day 9: Merman
I didn’t think I was going to have a picture for this one but when I opened the book “Mermaids, Sirens and Selkies: Myths and Legends“ by Jean Menzies I was surprised to see that the first story was about a merman! 😂
