Today I went with a list (never happens). I only needed a new foundation brush, some dry shampoo, and a new moisturizer. I wanted to look at face primers as I've been having issues with the Smashbox Photo Finish Pore Minimizing Primer and my current foundation. I looked, and I bought, of course.
Here's my haul. I'll probably do a review of the brush and the primer at some point in the near future.
Batiste Dry Shampoo in Original Scent, $7.99 ULTA
I seriously go through a can of this stuff every 8 weeks or so. It's the only dry shampoo I've found that doesn't make my already grease-prone hair greasier on the second or third day. Life saver during finals week!
Urban Decay Pore Perfecting Complexion Primer Potion, $31 ULTA
I had a tube of this a couple years ago when it was still the white formula and didn't really like it all that much. I felt like it just sat on top of my skin instead of sinking into my pores. I'm hoping this will help with the oxidation issues I've been having with the Naked Skin Liquid Foundation, which I'm totally in love with.
Real Techniques Expert Face Brush, $8.99 ULTA
If you know me, or peek in my makeup bag, the majority of my brushes aside from 3 or 4 are Real Techniques Brushes. I bought my first sets back in 2012 when they first came out at ULTA, and I love them. They hold up super well and don't shed when I clean them. They still feel as soft as they do when I first bought them. I'm hoping this brush will apply the foundation better than my current makeup sponge does.
Garnier Moisture Rescue Refreshing Gel-Cream for Normal/Combo Skin, $7.99 ULTA
I ran out of my Clinique Dramatically Different Gel Moisturizer, and as much as I loved it when I first got it, I started to not like it as much. Plus, it's quite expensive for a moisturizer. I'm hoping this will have a similar effect with a less steep price tag, and that it'll help keep my oiliness to a minimum.
