Happy First week of October! Halloween month is here and I’m excited for my costume. I am planning on being a mermaid and cannot wait to put the look together. I will be doing a post of my outfit as well as my makeup look. Last year I was a unicorn and you can see that post here.
Ok, onto the reviews. I picked up a few items during the Ulta 21 days of beauty sale so I did get them for 50% off. I like to stock up on my go-to items as well as try new things! How perfect!
Beauty Blender Cleaner I bought during the 21 days of beauty at Ulta for 50% off.
PROS
+It is a solid bar that will last for a long time
+There is also a pink scrubber for your brushes inside
+It smells nice
+Creates a nice lather to really clean out the sponge
+Cleans my beauty blender so well that it returns it back to new
+Comes in easy screw off top container that is easy to travel with
+Does not react with your skin. I have had no breakouts or reactions when cleaning my beauty sponge with this. I always ring it out until the water is clear, but sometimes a little soap can get left behind.
CONS
-Kind of pricy for ‘soap’ ($16)
I’ve also been trying out the Anastasia Beverly Hills brow definer triangular brow pencil in taupe during the 21 days of beauty sale at Ulta. This retails for $23, but I got it half off.
PROS
+It’s quick and easy to use for those rushed mornings
+The taupe color matches my hair perfectly. (Shade range is great)
+Priced well at $23
+I like the width of the pencil. Other pencils I’ve used are smaller/thinner and feel like nothing in your hand
+Love that there is a spooly on the opposite end. Makes it easy to brush out product
CONS
-It is not a precise tool since the product is in a triangle form
-It does not create the look of brow hairs very well, it just fills in what brows you have
Lastly I wanted to talk about a new company that I recently discovered called Lounge Underwear. I follow Jordan Lipscomb on YouTube and she did a whole video about Lounge and I loved it all. I got the two piece lounge wear set in black.
PROS
+Lounge legging sets come in 7 color and text size variations
+The packaging feels very high end
+They feel like shape wear and keep everything in
+The quality and feel of the material is so worth the price
+I’m 5’7″ and the length of the leggings is perfect and hits right at my ankles
+Leggings are high rise and fit well around my waist
+I love the white contract band on the bra and the leggings. It reminded me of Calvin Klein.
CONS
-I ordered a size down per the reviews but I would recommend getting your true size or even sizing up. The leggings took some effort to get on
-I wish that is said LOUNGE on the back of the leggings as well
Thank you all so much for reading. Until next time,

Those look so comfy from Lounge! I feel the same way about the ABH pencil. I prefer the one with the smaller pencil, but I still love this one for a quick fill in! I usually use it at an angle so it sharpens the pencil and then use that for the strokes. More work than necessary tho! lol
They are very comfortable. : ) I like the ABH for the quick fix but yeah I do prefer a smaller pencil for a more precise look when I have more time.
