If you are looking for both drugstore and more upscale cosmetics, Ulta is a nice choice for your shopping. They carry the same things you'd find at Jewel - L'oreal, Almay, and so on - as well as "prestige" cosmetics. Their selection is huge! Being able to choose from such a variety of brands is helpful in picking out the best makeup for yourself. Also, they have a salon (which offers some specials throughout the year), hair tools, and other wellness-type items like yoga gear. The coupons that come in the Sunday paper (like $3.50 off your purchase) are nice but as a warning, they don't apply to the upscale stuff. Still, it's a nice place to go... Just don't count on great customer service.
