I have been working a lot at my job and preparing for the zumba class I will be teaching, so haven't been able to post the swatches. I would prefer to get a better camera since I typically take pics on my cell phone which has been acting up lately and not as great of quality.
At any rate I have hauled in some new items from Meow Cosmetics and received my first lunar bunny club item from Moon Rabbit. I also suscribed to some services (julep, beauty army, my glam (though my cancel this one before I get anything from them) and birch box as well as one that is for my dog bark box). I received my intro julep box yesterday I got it for a penny from using the code 'penny'. I received two colors, a pedi cream which I knew I would be getting, but I also received a bag bout the size of a cereal box.

Have also been entering contest, raffle and giveaways. One of the giveaways is from another blog and has BFTE coffee shop collection as the prize (some pretty neutral eyeshadows). link below: http://xoxovalentinekissesxoxo.blogspot.com/2012/08/giveaway-bfte-cosmetics-coffee-shop.html
More to come.

Ulta event/visit
My mother and I have been wondering about our undertones, what season we are, etc. So I came up with this plan to go to Ulta. I have never been in the store but have ordered from them online a few times.
I sadly didn't really get to look around much since we signed up for the PurMinerals event that was going on. We both got suckered into buying items we really didn't need. (I do own so much already). The make up was alright, but not exceptional from what I experienced. I do have very red cheeks so the corrective primer may have been a good get, but I wonder if I would have been better off with Smashbox or another brand. I do like the gold eyeshadow I purchased but considering my recent hauls I sure I have something that would compare.
At any rate I supposedly have pink undertones and my mother is neutral (which she really isn't happy to hear since she was hoping to have specific colors to replace her wardrobe due to her weight loss).. I really just wanted to know because I fear ordering foundations over the net. I otherwise wear what I want and I think looks good.
At any rate I would like to go back to Ulta to get a chance to walk around and try other products.
Swatches planned for the near future.
