Ulta Haul [under $20]

Happy Tuesday! 
I was given an Ulta gift card last week and decided to challenge myself to come as close as I could to the total without going over. I went over by 10 cents! I'd say that was a success. I bought things that were on my "if I go to Ulta" list I keep on my phone. 
Here's what I got. 
Freeman Charcoal & Black Sugar Mask: I had gotten a sample mask of this a few weeks ago and loved it! I put it on my list to purchase the full size one later. This mask warms up when it's on your skin. It's not your typical mask that you let harden and wipe off with a warm towel. I don't leave it on long. The black sugar granules need to be moved around to exfoliate your skin. Once you wash it off you're left with a freshly exfoliated face that is nice and polished. [hence... a polishing mask.]
Redken Extreme Anti-Snap: This is one of those "saw it in a youtube video" purchases. I have been looking for something to help with split ends and dryness on my ends. My ombre dyed hair seems to be getting lighter with more sun and the lighter it gets the more damaged it looks. This is supposed to help with all of that! I bought the smaller travel size version before committing to a $18 full size bottle. 
EOS Lip Balm: Pretty self explanatory. These lip balms are awesome. You need them in your life. 
Organix Nourishing Coconut Oil Hydrating Mist: I am all about coconut when it comes to summer. The smell just screams summertime to me. I thought this mist would be great to add shine and moisture during the months when my hair is exposed to an excessive amount of sunshine.  
Essence Colour & Go [that's what i mint]: I have never tried any products from Essence but the $1.99 price tag on their polishes had me curious. I am pleasantly surprised by the quality and pigment of their polishes. It's long lasting and my favorite part, it's quick drying! This picture was taken 3 days after painting my nails. No chips, no pealing, still perfect nails. I will be back to pick up a few different shades.
