Ulta finds I actually rebuy
15
items I am a mom of two and Ulta is where most of my beauty money goes, mostly because of the points and the constant 21 Days of Beauty sales. This is the short list of things I have bought more than twice, which is a much harder test than loving something...
I am on my fourth tube of this, which is the only endorsement that means anything. It covers the under eye situation two kids gave me without me needing foundation on top. It creases on me by about two in the afternoon unless I set it with powder, an...
Tarte Shape Tape Concealer
I have tried the forty dollar mascaras and I keep coming back to this ten dollar one. The skinny brush gets my inner corner lashes that every fat wand skips completely. It flakes a little under my eyes by evening, so I would not pick it for a long da...
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara
My brows thinned out after my second pregnancy and this is what I use to fake them back. The tip is genuinely thin enough to draw single hairs instead of a block of color. It is twenty six dollars for something the size of a toothpick and I go throug...
Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz
This replaced foundation for me on every day that is not a wedding. It evens me out without looking like I have anything on, and the SPF means one less step at seven in the morning. Coverage is genuinely light, so if you want to hide redness or break...
ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40
I buy this every year during 21 Days of Beauty and never at full price. It melts a full face of makeup and SPF in one go and leaves my skin feeling soft instead of squeaky. Full price is honestly ridiculous for a cleanser, and the tub is not travel f...
ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm
Waterproof mascara used to mean rubbing my eyes raw until I started using this. Ten seconds with a soaked cotton pad and everything is gone with no scrubbing. You have to shake it every time because it separates, and the oily film it leaves means I s...
Clinique Take The Day Off Makeup Remover
My bathroom towels get used by four people and I got tired of wondering what was on mine. My jawline breakouts calmed down within a month of switching to these. It is a lot of disposable waste for a face towel, which I do feel weird about, and they a...
Clean Skin Club Clean Towels
This is the one moisturizer my combination skin has never argued with, summer or winter. It sinks in fast enough that I can put makeup on right after, which matters when I have about four minutes. It is not enough on its own in deep winter, so I laye...
Clinique Moisture Surge 100H
Ten dollars for something I use twice a day makes this the easiest repurchase in my routine. I put it on damp skin before moisturizer and my face stops looking tight by mid morning. It pills if you layer it under certain sunscreens, so I had to move ...
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5
I swipe this on three nights a week and it is the reason my makeup sits flat instead of catching on dry patches. The big bottle lasts me close to six months for thirteen dollars. It absolutely stings if you use it too often, and I learned to keep it ...
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toner
Postpartum shedding plus box dye left my ends looking like straw, and this is what pulled them back. My hair snaps less when I brush it wet, which is the only measure I really trust. It is thirty dollars for shampoo, which I still resent, and it lath...
OLAPLEX No.4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo
I wash my hair twice a week and this is what covers day three. It does not leave that grey cast on my dark roots the way the cheap ones do, and the smell is genuinely nice. The can runs out fast if you are heavy handed, and it does build up, so I sti...
amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo
I bought this the first time as a treat and now it is just what lives on my dresser. It sinks in fast enough that I can get dressed right away, which most body creams cannot manage. The scent is strong and pistachio sweet, so if you wear perfume it w...
Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream
This is my before self tanner step and the only reason my legs do not go patchy. It is about ten dollars for a giant tub that lasts me a whole season. It makes the shower floor genuinely dangerous from all the oil, so I rinse it down right after and ...
Tree Hut Vanilla Shea Sugar Scrub
My lips crack every winter and this is the only thing that fixes them overnight instead of just sitting on top. I put it on after brushing my teeth and by morning the flakes are gone. It is thick and sticky enough that I would not wear it out of the ...
Lanolips 12 Hour Overnight Lip Mask
