[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.

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...

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! I picked up some of the [Wet n Wild Eyeshadow Brushes]( back in 2014 and although, I wasn’t wowed by them I wouldn’t say they were SUPER bad either. I’d probably say the same for the Wet n Wild Kabuki Brush! It’s an ok brush but nothing that’s going to change your beauty life.

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 [Read More]( [Do You Struggle Finding Your Crease?]( Isabella Muse, 09 Mar 11:23 AM Do you struggle finding your crease? That sounds like something right out of [Girls](. I’m talking about your eye crease obviously not other intimate areas ahem…! I personally have Mimi syndrome. My upper eye area is smooth and high but I don’t have much of a crease. I always find it difficult applying darker, contrasting shade in my crease because I fear I’ll go to high and end up looking like Mimi from Drew Carey. For example, this morning I wanted to do a purple pink eyeshadow look. My plan was to apply pink on my lids and purple in my crease. But it just doesn’t come out right for me! Which means I end up applying the purple in my outer v and stroked a little upward. I’ve come to the conclusion I either suck at eyeshadow application or I simply can’t find my crease. Do you struggle finding your crease? Any tips or tricks for finding it? Or maybe you struggle with some other eyeshadow issues or like maybe you suck at liquid eyeliner application...

I sound like one of those passive aggressive people that will compliment you but also, point out something they dislike about you. “Awww you’re so cute but…” I’m sorry, Ulta but I speak for everyone when I say we REALLY need some free shipping. [Ulta has stepped up it’s game in so many incredible ways the past two years](.

I got suckered into these because I adored the cute heart design that reminded me of [MAC Quite Cute Blush]( that launched a few years ago. I’m not a huge highlighter girl by any means and like many of you I’m tried of the endless highlighters. I’m also not one that embraces [unusual shades of highlighter like lilacs and purples or even greens.]( But here I am with two brand new highlighters in my possession beause I’m weak.
