And it's quite a massive haul at that, so I need to apologize in advance for the length of the video, but I promise there's tons of fun goodies to show you! Also, I didn't realize how many times I say how 'excited' I am about products, so be prepared for that too (if only I had a dollar for every time I say the word 'excited' haha). Anyways I hope you enjoy my Ultimate ULTA Haul:

¤ NYX Eyeshadow Base in Skin Tone- Across the lid, through the crease and up to the brow
¤ Urban Decay Naked Palette- To apply these three shadows I used the same Brush, a MAC 217.



-With a Fluffy Brush apply Virgin to highlight the brow and tear duct.
-Using the same brush, apply Naked to the lid, through the crease and up toward the highlight; blend where the highlight and crease meet.
-Again with the same brush, pick up Buck and apply a small amount on top of Naked. Blend together.
¤ Maybelline MasterPrecise by Eyestudio in Black- Thinly line the inner upper lash line, taking the line far down toward the tear duct. Make the line slightly thicker at the middle of the lid, making the line thicker toward the outer corner. Flick at the outer corner.
¤ ULTA Kohl Eye Liner in Chocolate- Apply to the lower lash line, just below the water line, making the line thicker at the outer corner and thinner toward the tear duct. Lightly smudge it out with a clean finger.
¤ NYX Eye/Eyebrow Pencil in Taupe- Apply to the lower water line
¤ Curl eyelashes and apply mascara to top and bottom lashes. I used a combination of NYX La Amoureux Mascara and NYX Pin-Up Tease Mascara.
