Click here to view the newly-released Black Friday ad from Ulta.
There's a cute Deck the Halls mini set from OPI for $7.99 and a mini set from Ulta for %2.99.
There's also a Chi Hair Straightener for $79.99 with a coupon and a 200-piece makeup palette for $16.99.
But other than that, considering it opens at midnight by me and will literally be the East Brunswick location's first day of operation (I know. I KNOW.), color me unimpressed. What do you guys think?

Day 9: Zoya Codie
By a PRETTY close margin, Team Jacob and Codie has come out on top!
Codie is a gorgeous rich chocolate brown with a buttery application. It was opaque in two moderate coats. I'm a big fan of the color for two reasons.
The first is that the shade is beautiful. I'm not normally a fan of browns, but this color looked like I had melted a Hershey bar on my nails and was the perfect shade. I'm not a big fan of tans and coffee colors, but this was just right.
Secondly, I have a Chocolate Labrador Retriever named Dakota, whom we all call Kody, and Zoya Codie looks just like her. See?
And both look like our couch!
Now that Princess Puppy has made her debut on the blog, it's time to get to voting!
With the weather outside turning cold after a few days in the mid-sixties, I think it's only appropriate to revert back to a winter theme. So embrace Lady Winter... and vote for Ibiza, Indigo, or Tao.

Day 8: Zoya Faye
Faye absolutely DOMINATED the competition this go around. WOW. You go, girl!
Faye is a dazzling lilac and gold glitter with a blush tone to it. It's very feminine and delicate, but much more sophisticated than wearing bubblegum pink glitter.
Originally, I had put on two coats of polish. But I found that it was a little two sheer and needed three coats. Above, you can see I only have two coats on the pinky and ring, but three on the middle and index. I definitely prefer three coats of Faye.
I couldn't resist a sparkle shot!
The wear on her is entirely impressive. I wore Faye for TWO WHOLE WEEKS over the summer with just some minor tip wear. And that is in spite of mornings in a pool and time spent at a ballpark.
In honor of the release of Breaking Dawn (I know, I know… but it's a really cute theme!), please vote whether you're Team Edward (Anja) or Team Jacob (Codie).

Day 7: Zoya Julieanne
Ding ding ding! The winner of glitter madness, by a healthy landslide, is officially Zoya Julieanne!
A dark, inky glass flecked purple, Julieanne is a gorgeous shade that packs all sorts of vampy goodness. It is also a dupe for Orly Out of this World from the Cosmic FX collection. You can see the punch of this deep grape in the bottle, long before you even put it on! The only complaint that I have is that unlike its Orly counterpart, Julieanne doesn't show off any duo-chrome sparkle on the nail.
I love how from some angles, she looks almost speckled. This would be under sunlight conditions.
This is Julieanne in the shade...
This is Julieanne overexposed to show just how many flecks there ACTUALLY are...
And lastly, this is Julianne at the beach...
GOTCHA!
With the warm weather making an appearance here in Jersey, let's go for a little Sunshine and Summertime. Zoya Breezi, Mira, Faye, and Reva are asking for your vote. So get to it!
