Ulta 21 Days of Beauty Sale

The Ulta 21 Days of Beauty Sale is something I rarely take advantage of. Why? Because I try to only stick to big purchases items on face makeup – foundation, concealer, and powder.

When it comes to skincare and other makeup products – including lipsticks, mascara, and eyebrow pencils, I tend to stick to drugstore items. I mean, right now, my lipsticks are from Kylie Cosmetics, so that doesn’t exactly count! But the point is, I try to only splurge on certain makeup/skincare products!

With Ulta’s 21 Days of Beauty Sale, I thought it would be nice to make you all a guide on the products I think are worth ordering online, as some items are online only. The sale runs from March 13th to April 2nd. 

So, without further ado, here are the products I’d recommend from the 21 Days of Beauty Sale:

Today (3/13) marks the start of the sale, but with this going up late on the first day, I definitely cost you two great items:

Thursday, 3/17

Friday, 3/18 

Wednesday, 3/30

Saturday, 4/2

 

As you can see, I don’t feel the need to purchase something on sale, every day. I’ve stuck to products I’ve tried that I know work well, and products I’ve heard have great reviews. This is also a great time to get something you’ve been wanting to try, but didn’t want to spend a lot on. Click here to check out the full list of products that are part of the sale. Oh, and remember, there are mystery items scattered all throughout the duration of the sale. Let me know if there’s a must-try item I don’t have on my list!

Best Sellers | Feb. 28 – March 6

I hope you all had a great weekend! Last week’s best sellers brings out a pop of colors, making me feel ready for spring!

First, we have this mini handbag from Rothy’s. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like they sell the apple red color anymore, but they have other options, and even a bigger handbag.

These dress pants from Express are my favorite for spring! I can’t wait for it to stop snowing in Montana. I bought the complete set and can’t wait to wear it all together.

This boob tape from Amazon was a lifesaver on my wedding day. It truly helps keep things together.. and even helps with lift! It lasted all night on me!

Another from Amazon is this purse strap – a constant best seller for me. It’s the perfect match for my Louis Vuitton Speedy.

Lastly, one of my favorite pairs of jeans from Abercrombie – the 90s high-rise jeans! I love wearing the rolled up or down – both ways look great!

Let me know what your favorite pieces are!

Just Ordered | Swimwear

Happy weekend! I’ve got a little girls’ trip coming up towards the end of the month, and I thought I should put in an order for some new swimwear! Luckily, a lot of stores are in the middle of their spring sale, so I thought this would be a good time to take advantage of it!

I normally can’t order a full set sold as one piece, because I’m not the same size on bottom and top – so pieces sold separately work out better for me. I don’t think EVERYTHING I ordered will actually fit well on me, but it’s nice knowing I can return them if I have to.

The bulk of my order came from Abercrombie, which is having a 25% off sale. Then I ordered one top from Aerie, which I have high hopes for! I’ll link everything down below.

I hope you all have a great rest of your weekend – I’ll be watching the new batman!

Best Sellers | Feb. 21 – 27

Last week’s best sellers has a good mix of items! From crafts, kitchen items, and home decor!

First, let’s talk beauty – This Deep Repair Masque from Macadamia Natural Oil not only works amazingly, but smells great too! I love finding these at bargain prices at stores like TJMAXX, Ross, or Nordstrom Rack. So, there’s no need to pay full price for it! I love having this on hand when I’m running on my normal hair conditioner (I know I can’t be the only one! I always run out of conditioner first before my shampoo).

This Amazon fashion ring continues to hold up well for me. I’ve had it for months and it still doesn’t make my finger green! Plus, the stones are still intact! It’s such a great price for something that looks more than a cheap piece of fashion jewelry.

Speaking of Amazon, I’ve two more things to mention. This candle-making kit was a fun product to try out and would make for a great family craft activity. It comes with different scents, so you can customize your candle to your liking! I have a review of the kit that you can check out here.

The last Amazon item is this automatic salt and pepper shaker set. Yes, I definitely thought automaker salt and pepper shakers were extra, but let me tell you, it’s life-changing! All you have to do is flip each shaker upside down and the grinder kicks on – and you can even customize it grind out small or larger pieces. I love it and highly recommend it, haha!

 

The last item is these frames I used to put together my picture wall in our living room. They’re super affordable, but look great! You can check out my little IG reel on them here.

I hope you all have a great week!

My dogs’ Top Five Favorite Toys | Corgi Faves

If you’re a dog lover like I am, then you know your pup has a favorite toy. Even if the toy they’ve been playing with for more than a week is torn up, they still LOVE it!

I recently bought a new dog toy for my corgis and Biggie is completely obsessed with it. It made me realize, why don’t I put out a list of my dogs’ top five favorite toys?! So, here they are, in order of their top favorite, absolutely begging to play with it:

  1. Laser Pointer – Do you find this one odd? We got one for Biggie just for fun, to see how he’d react to it, and it’s his number one favorite toy in the world. This is the only toy he sits nearby (we leave it on the corner of the kitchen counter) and waits for. Sometimes, he will even sit by the back door (as if he needs a potty break), but will run around you and sit by the laser. Both Biggie and Karma LOVE running up and down our hallway, chasing the laser as we point it in different directions. It also doubles as a workout for them too if it’s snowing/too cold outside. We got ours from Amazon. It doesn’t take batteries and is rechargeable!
  2. Jolly Egg – This is our latest purchase and we were both surprised by how much Biggie loves playing with it! I was browsing Amazon for some birthday gifts for Biggie back in January, and this is one I saw that had the best reviews. Don’t get me wrong, I was definitely confused. Why would a cheap plastic egg be such a hit with dogs? WELL, it’s hilarious to watch them play with it. Because of its shape, they can’t pick it up. And when they paw at it with force, it shoots out behind them. Biggie actually whines when he plays with it because he can’t get a grip on it. Our girl Karma can’t even take a turn since Biggie is a toy hog. He’ll even take a toy she’s using and just grab it from her. Maybe someday. Get the Jolly Egg from Amazon here.
      • I definitely plan to shoot a video of Corgi vs. Egg soon!
  3. NERF Chain Braid with Football – This rope-type toy is one of Biggie’s faves because he can quickly pick it up and run with it. We like it because if the football is chewed up, we can simply cut it off, and still have a rope. And as the rope gets destroyed on one end, we can trim it and basically create a fresh, new rope! So, this is one toy that we know will get destroyed easily, but can still last a good while. We get ours from Target!
  4. Tuffy Toys – Tuffy Toys are a great option for my corgis. They’re made for super chewers, so it can take them a white to fully destroy it. While we’ve had different shaped animals in these toys, their fave is the pig! Both Biggie and Karma loved it equally. I personally like it for them because once they tear through it, I can remove the stuffing inside and they still love playing with the pig itself. That part actually lasted a really long time. I plan on getting another one soon! We usually get out Tuffy Toys from TJMaxx or Ross, but I just found it here on Amazon!
  5. Squeaky Balls – Of course, every dog loves tennis balls, and my corgis are no different. We’ve got some from Amazon, Chewy, TJMaxx, even Walmart. It’s good exercise for the pups and I think Karma’s top fave game – chasing the ball. I wouldn’t say “retrieve” the ball, because she doesn’t always bring it back (we’re still working on it). I found some from Amazon here.

Let me know what your dog’s favorite toys are! I love spoiling my dogs, so I’m always on the lookout for new, affordable toys I think they’ll love. Don’t forget, you can follow Biggie and Karma on Instagram!

Best Sellers | Feb. 7 – 13

Accessories take over last week’s best sellers list! In fact, there’s only one clothing item – this boyfriend flannel from Abercrombie.

There are a few beauty-related items, including my favorite hairbrush and the Tula Face Filter Primer and Moisturizer. Check out my full review on the primer here.

The Quay blue light glasses are a top fave for me. They look great and I strongly believe they lessen my headaches from staring at a screen too long.

Lastly, this Amazon purse organizer is something I use five days a week in my work bag! It really helps keep things organized in a big tote bag.

Hope you’re all having a great week!
