The Ulta 21 Days of Beauty sale 2022 is underway and I wanted to share my recommendations for Week One and also chat about what I'm planning to buy during the sale!
TUESDAY, AUGUST 30, 2022
My first recommendation is the Keys Soulcare Sacred Body Oil (Reg. $25, On Sale for $12.50)
I got this body oil a few months ago and it's divine! Not only is it a thick, ultra-nourishing formula that leaves your skin super soft, but the scent is incredible...it's a warm, soft oat milk scent that stays close to your body. It's not overpowering at all and I love putting this on before bed because it's so soothing and calming.

Below is my before and after photo the first day I used the neck serum. The after photo was taken immediately after application. In the before shot, my neck had very noticeable crepiness and after, it was much less, which I was very happy about!

From there I started using the neck serum and the body cream on top of that morning and night and by the end of the week, my neck looked even better! There was almost no visible crepiness and even my neck wrinkles looked less severe. I'm not sure if it's a temporary effect and if I stop using the product it will go back to the way it was before, but even if it is, I was very happy with the results. I also love how firm the body cream makes the skin on my arms, legs, and chest too!

PRODUCTS ON MY LIST TO TRY
SUNDAY, AUGUST 28, 2022
I plan on purchasing a few MAC Lipsticks to try (can you believe I've never tried one before??). In my latest video where I polled my audience on the best high-end makeup, MAC lipsticks came in second place and I definitely want to try Velvet Teddy, which seems to be a very popular shade. At $10.50 each, they're at a drugstore price point, so it makes sense to try some and see what all the hype is about!
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 2022
There are two products I want to try that are on sale this upcoming Saturday...the Clarins Total Eye Lift Cream (Reg. $89, On Sale for $44.50) and the Benefit Precisely My Brow Pencil (Reg. $25, On Sale for $12.50)
I'm a huge fan of Clarins skincare, and I recently tried a little sample of the Total Eye Lift Cream with an order I placed on the Clarins website a few months ago. I loved the cream...it felt very hydrating and didn't irritate my eye area (which a lot of eye creams tend to do on my sensitive eyes), so I was interested to see how it worked long-term...I just didn't want to pay $89 for it! I think it's much more manageable at $44.50.
I also want to try the Benefit pencil because it's been a long time since I've used it and I can't remember how I felt about it (I've been using mostly drugstore brow pencils and occasionally the ABH Brow Wiz). It just won Best Brow Pencil in my recent high-end makeup favorites video, so I want to try it again and see why you all love it so much, and at 50% off, it's on par with a lot of drugstore options anyway!
So that's about it! There aren't a ton of things jumping out at me this week, but in the coming weeks, I'll have quite a few more recommendations to share. If you missed my last video sharing all of your favorite high-end makeup, you can watch it here:
Thanks for reading guys! I'll see you soon!
