I'll probably pick up a Bare Minerals primer, I like their brightening one. Maybe a Stila smudge stick.
The only other stuff that appeals to me right now are the skin-care deals -- they've got a couple of Philosophy things that I'll think about, or the Peter Thomas Roth kit.
meh- nothing is striking me as a MUST this time. I just got a becca primer in Dec when I turned in my Ulta points in Dec, otherwise I'd be all over that.
normally i'd be all over the bareminerals primer (i use the tinted one on weekdays like a BB cream) and the stila smudge sticks. but when i organized my collections recently i realized i had quite a few tinted moisturizers and lots of eyeliners sitting unused. so i'm going to try to be good and not pick up any more.
i am looking forward to the surprises they may throw in for daily deals though!
I might grab 2 of the UD Perversion mascaras. I'd be set for mascara for the rest of the year haha. Nothing else really jumps out at me. I might just save my money for the Sephora spring sale.
Has anyone used the tinted Benefit lash primer? I'm tempted to try it at that price. I usually use Dior's lash primer but if this is comparable at all, I'm willing to at least switch temporarily.

Oh, thanks for the heads up. I have been looking at the it powder foundation and brushes, so I'll try those. I'll probably also pick up a couple Tarte mascaras and maybe a Tarte blush or highlighter. I like the Buxom lip colors but I'm allergic to something in them - I can only wear them once or else I get burning, peeling lips.

I'm using a deluxe size of the benefit lash primer and I really like it. I missed that it was on sale I'll probably grab one of those too.
So I am interested in the It Cosmetics brow power pencil, foundation brush, and maybe the perfecting powder. Grabbing another stila one step CC primer....
And considering another tarte blush, stila eyeliner, and becca primer
I just got an Anastasia brow wiz a few weeks ago when I redeemed my points, but the spoolie end broke off in my makeup bag so I am going to return, not sure if I want to buy another one.
There was a year that the ulta brand eyeliner hot buy was for $1/each. That was a good sale. I still might stock up for $3 each though, i really like them.
Has anyone tried ulta makeup Brushes? At six dollars I may grab a few to try.
I just got one in my last buy - it's a contouring brush so I haven't actually *used* it yet since that's not a daily thing for me, but it feels nice. It doesn't feel cheap like the brushes they tend to stick in the GWP bags. Nice heft to it and very soft bristles. Kinda have that sleek feeling through that some synthetics have, which leaves me unsure how well they'll actually grab product though.
Maybe I'll actually like...try using it tonight before I wash my face and give you a rather more useful answer.
Tarte mascara - I love that stuff. Possibly IT Cc powder IT Airbrush foundation brush
On the fence about the Becca Primer. I've been eyeing the new purple one and can't decide between the two.
I have a full size of the Backlight, but recently got a sample from Sephora of the new purple First Light. They are both amazing and give me an amazing finish and glow. I think the Backlight primer gives a slightly dewier, more luminous look, whereas the First Light primer does a better job in masking redness and evening skin tone.

I had to run to home goods today to pick up some things for work and Ulta is next door so of course I went in. Walked out with two love flush blushes.
I walked around and tested some of the other same items. I'm not in love with any of the stila smudge stick colors, I guess only sephora sells the more colorful ones besides turquoise. Nothing else jumped out at me.
