Hunter King got a serious case of déjà vu this Christmas. This story sounds like something from The Young and the Restless or a Hallmark Christmas movie. King starred in a fun holiday flick for Ulta Beauty and the Hallmark Channel, in which she runs into her high school crush. A sales associate dished out more than just beauty advice.

Getting Into the Holiday Spirit

King shared a fun new ad with Ulta on Instagram. This little “mini-movie” will surely get you into the holiday spirit. King plays a woman named Joy, who returns home for the holiday season. She stopped by Ulta to get the right makeup for her high school reunion.

Then, someone caught her eye. King realized that her crush from high school still looked hot. The sales associate encouraged her to talk to him. In Part 2 of the flick, King drops lip gloss. Her crush wants to know what she is doing back in town.

King admitted that she was attending their high school reunion and wondered what he was doing in Ulta. He revealed that he was shopping for his mom and his sister, nothing else. The sales associate encouraged the duo to attend the reunion together.
