About the Muse

Isabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse. If you’re that person feel free to reach out and leave a comment or follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Bloglovin‘.

The Glow Recipe Sale couldn’t happen at a better time as I’m hitting rock bottom on my Plum Plump Moisturizer and Serum! I don’t think the jar and bottle I’m in will make it to the Sephora Spring Savings Event so, I grabbed two of each during the sale. Sign up for a Glow Rewards Account (free to join) and get 20% off your total order or if you don’t want to sign up get 15% off! No code needed! You can get a a free travel-sized Plum Plump Cream with any $75 purchase and a free full-size Avocado Cleanser on orders $125 or more. I managed to score both with my order. I’m actually running like on my Avocado Cleanser so that came at a good time too! It’s a great one if you want a nice lathering cleanse that doesn’t dry or strip skin!

Enjoy the sale!

As for my opinion on the sale because you know I have to get my two cents in somewhere. I do see a good deal of items that I want to haul. The sale has been sort of odd the past few years. It really needed a reboot and that slowly been happening because really, who wants the same items on sale year after year? Ulta seems to have taken that into consideration with the 21 Days of Beauty Spring 2025 Sale and I see a lot of new items as well as staple items that people are probably going to want to snag. I do wish Lancome Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover was part of this year’s event. It seems ages since it was 50% off. I used to purchase five or six bottles when it went on sale! 🙁 What do you miss that hasn’t been included in the sale for a while?

What’s worth hauling today during the Ulta 21 Days of Beauty Spring 2025 Preview? We got a few options to take advantage of today!

If you brows are as scary as mine you might want to check out Benefit Gimme Brow+ Tinted Volumizing Eyebrow Gel ($18.50). I don’t normally use anything tinted on my brows just because my brows are very dark and thick already but this is actually really a nice pick up. A few years ago Benefit sent me a kit that contained this exact eyebrow gel and I was convinced I’d never use it. One day I did and ever after that it became part of my routine. It’s not overwhelmingly pigmented so if you do have darker brows it won’t make them look crazy. It’s easy to stroke on and fills in any areas that may need filing while taming brows and keeping them in place without being stiff or sticky. Plus at the end of the day it removes easily.

I was surprised Kopari Hair & Body Mist ($14.50) are half off! It’s only one scent which is the Kaanapali Coast one but hey, gotta love it’s 50% Off! This has notes of coconut milk and vanilla, with hints of warm spice. I got all four of these when they originally launched and thought they were pretty fun and a change up from all the Sol de Janeiro launches!

Another great pick is Clinique Dramatically Different Hydrating Jelly Moisturizer ($17). I’ve been using this since it launched several years ago. I tend to haul it out in the Summer as it’s super lightweight yet provides just the right amount of moisture without being super heavy!

Another unexpected pick is Snif Coco Shimmy Eau de Toilette! I never thought I’d see this at 50% off! That’s a pretty sweet offer. Snag it for $32.50 today and stash it away for Summer with its notes creamy coconut, pineapple, sunscreen, surf wax, sandalwood, and tonka bean it’s a perfect pick for warm days!

Don’t forget to stock up on COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence ($12.50). Fans know how great this one is! Provides plenty of moisture and soothes skin irritations! A perfect start to any skincare routine!

Ahhh yes the Squirt Plumping Lip Gloss Stick from MAC ($13). A controversial viral sensation from last year when Tiktokers were swiveling too much up and the gloss was breaking off which causes a big uproar about how worth it these were. Remember kids, swivel up a little, and build as needed! Trust me, it won’t break if you aren’t swiveling up a huge amount. I got two of these for myself today since I adore how shiny they look on lips. You can even apply them over lipstick!

I also hauled the HALF MAGIC Sparklestik Eye Crayon. I never tried these and I’m excited to do so as I love a good sparkly moment. These are on sale today for $12!

Don’t worry if you aren’t a Diamond or Platinum Member as you’ll be able to haul all these later in the month as they’ll be back on sale! As for tomorrow, March 7th, the sale officially starts and it starts with a bang. I do see some of the items selling out that they’ll have on sale.

NARS Afterglow Liquid Blush? Stop. I’d never have thought to see this on sale! I’m pretty sure certain shades will sell out. It’ll be $16 tomorrow! You might want to pop your fav shades in your cart now for easy check out in the AM.

Another absolute must have (that I never thought I’d see at 50% off) is the Supergoop! Every. Single. Face. Watery Lotion SPF 50 which is $17. If you HATE wearing SPF because it’s too heavy this stuff will be you BFF. It’s super light, absorbs easily, and wears well under makeup!

Benefit Cosmetics Gimme Brow+ Tinted Volumizing Eyebrow Gel ($18.50) is back tomorrow at 50% off so if you aren’t grabbing it today snag it tomorrow. Also, Hubba Brow Brow Enhancing Serum is on sale tomorrow for $29

You know I’m hauling Tarte Lights, Camera, and Lashes today right? It’s one of my Ride or Die Mascaras. All formulas are 50% Off tomorrow only!

I’m kicking, screaming, and dying that select Bread Haircare is on sale. I love Bread Hair-Cream Leave-In Curl Cream (it smells like gum!). They have four items on sale tomorrow that you can snag at 50% off:
Clear-Wash: Clarifying Detox Shampoo $12
Hair-Mask Deep Conditioner $14
Hair-Wash Milky Hair Cleanser $10
Baby-Soft: Hair Conditioner $12

Another hot pick tomorrow is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Beauty Balm Serum Boosted Skin Tint ($21) Super quick swipe and blend foundation! If you like stick foundation and have drier skin you’ll love this!
