ULTA BEAUTY MUST HAVES

I was able to shop an epic ultimate Ulta beauty haul and pick up some of my favorite Ulta beauty must haves. These beauty products are from there. Ulta has become one of my favorite spots to go and shop for beauty products. Some of the items I purchased include everything from hair products to makeup and nail color items. I plan to do a monthly or bi-monthly list of some of the beauty and makeup products that I buy from Ulta.

Let’s get into it!

The first thing I bought was the Melanin leave-in conditioner product. This one product has been around now for a couple of years and a ton of natural hair girlies around the internet love this product. If you have curly hair, wavy hair, and all things type 4. This product is one you might want to give a try.

It is a multi-use conditioner and can be used in a variety of ways as a leave-in or deep conditioner.

I bought the 16 oz once from Ulta and plan to use it soon on my hair as a leave-in conditioner. For now, I’m using a spray-on leave-in conditioner with my braids by Alikay Naturals.

————>>>>>    Check out my post here on Alikay Naturals.

I was able to pick up this Finishing Touch hair remover from Ulta Beauty. I’m glad I bought this one product; in fact, I plan to do a quick little video based on this little product. This facial hair removal is smooth and gentle on the face and works very quickly with no knicks or bruises.

If you have a little bit of hair that you want to get rid of, then this one product at Ulta is one you should try to remove facial hair instantly. I love these Ulta Beauty Must Haves.

ULTA BEAUTY PRODUCTS FOR OILY SKIN

Another item that I bought from Ulta is the Dermalogica breakout clearing wash which works well on my skin for adult acne.  This is one product I bought for my teenage boys. Dermalogica is my top-tier product that I use on my skin 100% of the time and rarely do I use any others.

 

Of course, each time I go I have to buy some makeup sponges to use when I apply my favorite foundations on my skin.

Another one on the list was the TGIN rosewater smoothing leave-in conditioner which worked quite well the first time I used it without weighing my hair down. It works well on curly hair and left my hair quite moisturized although it did leave a small film on my hair.

I ended up buying the infamous tangle teaser to use on my hair in between wash weeks to make my detangling process a lot smoother and shorter in the showers.

One of the last products I bought was Body Shop strawberry body butter for the skin as a moisturizing body butter. This one was not exactly one of my favorites and no guarantee I’ll buy it again.

ULTA BODY BUTTER AND SCRUBS

I picked up this Frank Body coffee powder body scrub with tons of oils to soften and exfoliate the body for glowing skin. This one product is a staple that I will use going forward to help make the skin look vibrant.

BEST ULTA MAKEUP PRODUCTS

These are two of my favorite makeup staples that I buy from Ulta,  and I'm sure that you will love them too. If you are of the melanin pigment then you need to try this Nars Deep One café concealer. An ultimate favorite item of mine from Ulta beauty stores.

The NARS DEEP 2 THE NUDE CALEDONA FOUNDATION comes in a small black bottle with a black top and an ultra cute look.
I bought the Nars eyeliner high pigment longwear the darkest black they have.

The last item I bought was the multi-use conditioner with a light purple case twist cap and a smooth gentle glide from Ulta. This one little eyeliner I have bought over and over again. One because it's so cute and second it glides on so silky smooth for an eyeliner pencil.

 

Finally, the last thing I bought was the gentle luscious lip balm that feels like a lip gloss and moistens the lip with a little shine. That just glides on to wear on top or under lipstick with castor oil, shea butter, mango butter, and much more.

How To Style Brown Boots

This post may contain affiliate links. Please see my Disclosure for more Info.

When it comes to style nothing says style better for me than some long knee-high brown boots.  It is now fall season and I am the one person that loves to wear boots of any kind. Whether its knee high boots, ankle boots, or mid-length boots. Boots are made for walking and they are my absolute favorite kind of shoes that I would wear all year long if I could.

One thing I'm known for wearing is boots with just about anything. 🙂

This past weekend hubby and I with some friends decided to go out for a night on the town and enjoy some of this beautiful fall weather here right now in central, Fl. I was stoked because I couldn't wait to pull out the knee-high brown boots that I bought late last year and have only worn once.  These boots are extra chic, extra comfortable, and extra long giving all things beautiful in my eyes. One thing you have to know is that brown boots are the sort of thing that you have to pair with to get the look you're going for.

I decided that night to wear brown boots with black pants.

I wore my black skinny jeans, with my brown boots and an adorable top that I got from Nordstroms Rack in the designer section on sale. This look was so cute and I received so many compliments on the assemble the whole night.

If you are thinking about wearing some brown boots and have no idea what to wear with them let me give you some tips.

How To Style Brown Boots

Brown boots can go with just about anything if you pair them with the right colors. You can wear brown boots with a shift dress, skinny jeans, pencil skirts, a sweater dress, and jeans. Yes, all you have to do is get creative and feel confident in what you are wearing. Some of the best colors I think that go well with brown boots are beige and blue colors. These two colors go great with brown boots and will never stop working in combination.

Burgandy and pale greens go well together and will never go out of style as a mixture also, just make sure you pick out the right colors you want to wear that day to make sure it pairs well.

I know for myself I like to get a little experimental and pair my brown boots with prints. It's really what all you feel comfortable in, your true style, and how you want to wear your brown boots outfit.

Some of the colors I love to go with brown boots are:

  • beige colors
  • Burgandy
  • pale greens
  • light and dark blues
  • fall prints
  • Yes, black

Brown Boots with Black Pants

Although dark blue jeans in my opinion go best with brown boots and brown booties. You can for sure pull off wearing black pants with brown boots by applying the method of contrast. When you wear brown boots with black pants make sure that the color of the brown boots is way lighter than the black pans. Dark brown boots with black pants will not give that much contrast to look sensational.

Try to stick to solid colors like white, navy, or burgundy for the top portion. As you can see in my picture above the printed top that I wore with my black pants had a combination of all these colors except white.

 

 

Best Brown Boots For Fall

Some of the best brown boots for fall in any year will have to be brown country boots, brown slouch boots, and over-the-knee boots and brown booties. This combination of boots will always maintain a classy look. Which you can mix or match with different sorts of outfits.

Many brown boots can be worn with t-shirt dresses, mini dresses, and jeans for contrast to give a simple elegant look.

Don't give up thinking that you will not be able to pair brown boots in the fall, because as you can see brown boots can go with an assortment of clothing options.

 

Some of my favorite boots styles are listed below. 🙂

How To Grow Kinky Hair Fast

Yes, Indeed.

If you love it, it will grow!

I recently had the chance to read Dr. Phoenyx Austin's Book “If You Love It, It Will Grow” A guide to Growing Long afro-textured hair.

Now there are many books out there such as Ultra Black Hair Growth and Chicoros “How to Grow Afro- Textured hair. All of these books are great in their own way and I own every single one of them. However, the one I will have to say hands down is my favorite is Dr. Phoenyx's If you love it will grow.

This one small compact book is just the right book for those of us with kinky, kinky…., textured hair. It can be so hard to find someone with almost the exact same hair texture as myself., Tightly coiled and no curls nowhere to be found. So when I saw this book, I was stoked! It was just what I had been searching for; a great reference book full of tips and information on natural hair care for us, textured hair girls.

The format of the book is really simple and straightforward, making it easy to digest and apply the methods right away. It does not feel overwhelming, in fact, it was a pleasure to read and I almost finished reading the book, the same day I got it!

That's how delightful it was to read the book.

In the beginning, Dr. Phoenyx tells her personal back story on her own issues with the creamy crack, hair breakage, and the psychological drama that she experienced from growing up with a relaxer from a young age.

 

She gives detailed accounts of the experiences she had to overcome and learning to love herself and her hair.

” This book is about growing hair to longer lengths, but is also about a deeper message; a message of self love and self acceptance. For many women, hair is not just hair. There is a great interconnectedness between how women feel about their hair and how they feel about themselves. ” ~ Dr. Phoenyx Austin

 

Yes, this book is one that will help you to realize that loving your hair is also about loving yourself in all areas of your life. From choosing the right foods to eat to make sure you work out and scheduling time to love and nurture your hair.

I love how in Chapter 2 Dr. Phoenyx lets you know, as it says in the bible that love is Nurturing, Love is kind, and Love is patient. It protects and shields from harm. She questions you to question yourself whether or not you love your hair. If you read this book you will see why she does this and how eye-opening it will be for you as you read the rest of the book.

Yes, this book is bomb.com!

The Rest of the book is laid out in the format of informing you on the skills, techniques, whys, and hows of natural textured hair care.

 

• Chapter 1 – My Hair Story

• Chapter 2 – What Does ” If you Love it, It will Grow Really Mean?

• Chapter 3- Basics Of Hair Growth

• Chapter 4 -Basics of Hair Damage

• Chapter 5-Lifestyle Principles for healthy Hair Growth

• Chapter 6- Nutrition and Hair Growth

• Chapter 7- Categorizing Hair Products

• Chapter 8-Natural Emollients

• Chapter 9 – How to Choose Commercial Products

 

If you love it will grow is one book that is keeper, in my bookshelf and I refer to it time and time again for tips. For example, she has a whole section on Ayurvedic hair care, that I am reviewing right now to freshen up on my skills for using cassia and henna on my hair.

Even if you are no mixtress, know nothing about chemistry or biology. This book is so simple and straightforward that you will feel like a pro on textured hair care once you finish reading this book.

Great book, I can't say enough about it.

If you get one for yourself, get one for a kinky friend it will make a great gift.

 

Trust me, It will not disappoint…………

 

 

P.S. I would love to know your thoughts on it, if you read the book or not.
