Ulta doesn’t carry Make Up For Ever, so I go to Sephora for my MUFE Full Cover Concealer. My Ulta also doesn’t have the most complete Benefit display (this is probably true of other brands too) so if you wanted to swatch something, you’d have to go to Sephora (and buy it there too, since Ulta’s coupons can’t be used…

My cleanser, SPF, and nighttime moisturizer are all from CeraVe. For hair I mix and match, though I stick with a few brands by default because I can’t use silicones (they made my back and shoulders break out).

I’ve heard similar things about Ipsy. I guess it’s good if you’re just getting into makeup and you want to build up your collection quickly, but they seem to always send out the same rose-mauve lipsticks and black eyeliner pencils, and they rotate through the same few brands so if you don’t like one of them, you’re…

I like Prestige’s waterproof automatic pencil. It stays put, and you can smudge it a little in the seconds before it sets.

Everyone, go to colourpop.com right now and buy one of their $5 genius products. I would be crushed if this brand ever went out of business. I finally created a collection of neutrals that is actually cool-toned - do you know how impossible that is??? (Even my beloved Naked 2 Basics isn’t cool across the board.) And…
