Have you seen this beauty going around? This is the collection from physicians formula butter collection but its exclusive to ulta. and its different from the one that was exclusive to walmart. The one from walmart was in a palette form and came with a bronzer, blush and two highlights and a fragrance.  This also comes in two different shade ranges. This comes in individual containers and only comes in one shade range.  It contains a bronzer, blush, one highlight and a body butter that contains the same scent as the fragrance. I love this set. The bronzer is a bit light but it really gives a bit of a glow. Get this set here XOXO LAURIE ANN
