Walking around Ulta for too long is one of my favorite activities. I could browse around the aisles looking at new releases for hours and never get sick of it. However, I can understand why the store can be overwhelming because there are so many sections and inventory.
I put together a list of what I would recommend to someone who wants to add to their makeup and skincare collection. These items are my favorites that I think you’ll love. This list is tailored to light skin tones, because I made this list for a specific friend, then decided to share it via blog post as well.
Think of this as basically as if I’m walking around Ulta with you telling you what I’m obsessed with and what I think you should try.
