$100 in Ulta vs. $100 in Sephora

 Welcome back & if you're new here, welcome! So, I had seen a recent video from the Glamtwinz about a beginner friendly guide on spending $100 in Sephora & I thought that was really cool! So, I decided to put a different twist on it and compare what you could get spending $100 in Sephora vs. $100 in Ulta! I've shopped at both places enough to really figure out how far my money can actually go in both stores!!  Also, it's really easy to get overwhelmed with all the different brands and products, so hopefully this can serve as a template of sorts for ya'll!  So, if you wanna see how far $100 can go far  Sephora vs Ulta,  then just keep reading!

* For this post, I'm strictly focused on makeup because skincare and haircare in Sephora is pretty darn pricey, and Ulta has both high end and drugstore versions of both, so I wanted to make the playing field a little more even!

$1oo in SEPHORA





TOTAL: $104.00 for 8 items (over budget by $4)

$100 in ULTA
TOTAL : $98.38 for  16 items (under budget by $1.62)

Hopefully, you all enjoyed this post! I think it's really interesting how much or how little your money can stretch in prestige beauty stores like ULTA and Sephora. Thanks so much for reading and like always, Stay Beautiful!

Review: Nubian Heritage African Black Soap

Hello, all! Happy new year to everyone!! I came on to give my review on the second out of the three soaps I received from Nubian Heritage---the African Black Soap. Price: $4.99 on NH website and at the Vitamin Shoppe (5 oz size) Specs: This soap claims to be  acne-fighting,  detoxifying and healing.  Also, it was designed for people with   combination, oily, sensitive, and problem skin  , however it has been said that people with ALL skin types can use this as well :) but, back to the specs. Like I mentioned on my review on the Shea Butter soap , on the container is a brief history about how Nubian Heritage got its start and the ayurvedic properties about the key ingredients--which for this product line is shea butter, oats, aloe, palm ash, plaintain peel, tamarind extract and vitamin E. Palm Ash, Tamarind & Plantain Peel--soothing properties ; minimizes the appearance of superficial skin imperfections Oats--brightens and evens skin tone ...

November Favorites

Hello, my loves! Welcome back & if you're new here, welcome! I can't believe that I'm here with my November beauty favorites!! Like the year is legit almost  done. 31 days left before 2018 makes its grand entry. I do have quite a bit this month, so if you're interested in learning all about my  favorites for November,  then just keep reading! SKIN/BODYCARE Eco Tools Konjac Cleansing Sponge : so great for helping spread my cleanser more evenly on my face versus using my hands or a rag! I've also noticed that it has helped my skin be a lot smoother, too! Shea Moisture Superfruit Complex Body Lotion : such a thick, hydrating lotion !! Only thing though is I would change the packaging--maybe opt for a jar instead of a bottle because it's thicker that a traditional lotion, but thinner than a body butter. Nip & Fab Kale Fix Protecting Shot : my skin has been more balanced lately since incorporating this oil!! Since it's colder, my skin tends t...

Makeup Colourpop Element of Surprise palette : this is probably one of the most unique palettes I own! When I first saw it, I had no interest in picking it up, but when I saw it in Ulta & swatched the shade Rayon, (metallic dark coral with blue-green duochrome) I fell in love!! I never thought I'd love this palette, but I'm pleasantly surprised! Colourpop x KathleenLights Dream St. Palette :  another great option for a few pops of color + neutral shades! Unlike the Element of Surprise, this one is more a warm toned color scheme .  Also, I...
