Makeup Thread 3.0 - It's Back and It's Better Than Ever

[ajj]

Oh, I forgot one other thing. I placed my Sephora order on Thursday. I still haven't received shipment notification. It's supposed to be 3 day shipping. I'm kind of irritated. I probably shouldn't be, but I am.

I'll second jenniloveselvis on the Satin Hands. That stuff is amazing.

Ladies, I'm returning to the dark side and re-joining this awesome thread. I hope you'll accept me back ;-)

I'd like to place a Sephora order today (I was lucky enough to get a friend coupon) and pick up some Christmas presents. This order will also put me over into VIB status, woo hoo!

What are you all getting for people for holiday gifts? I'm planning on the Benefit Tropicoral Lip and Cheek kit for my mom, a Bite lipstick for both my mom and for my MIL. Any other suggestions for moms? Both wear makeup daily, but aren't super into it.

I also want to get something fun for BIL's girlfriend. Last year I got her one of the Benefit holiday sets, and for her birthday last year I got her the Chocolate Bar palette. I was thinking maybe the Sephora Give Me Some Lip set?? Anything else fun out? She's a youngin' (26 or so) and pretty into makeup.

Also, can they easily return/exchange stuff if I order online? I'm most worried about the lipstick colors -- but I want them to try the awesomeness that is Bite!

::whines:: I want to see more FOTDs!

Bite has a couple sets out that are fun. I got two of my sisters the little four pencil one.

I got my mother the Bite pencil set for her birthday, and she really likes it.  A couple of the colors are pretty bright, so I was a little on the fence about it, but she is working it.  

I like the idea of the Give Me Some Lip set for your BIL's girlfriend.  

I would also peruse the $25 and under section on Sephora's page -- there's lots of little holiday trinkets that could be cobbled together for a nice little set.  

[DarcyLongfellow]

Order is placed! I'm now VIB :-)

Thanks for all the suggestions!

Also, I guess you can tell that Sephora has been crazy busy because the free samples and the samples you "buy" with points all suck right now! Oh well :-)

I really wanted to try that eyeliner everyone talks about because maybe it would help my phobia of wing? Anyway this seemed like a good deal. $20 and then 20% off. I haaaate that the lipstick is named "underage red." Boo. I still bought it. Thank you rouge for free shipping!

She also had a lipstick named Celebutard.

I put up with a lot with the makeup industry and their naming, but KVD is on my shit list.

She's awful!

I'm only in it for the eyeliner. And I would never have considered her if not for all the rave of the eyeliner.

I think I may have ordered the last two Mix N Mingle Bite Duos in the red/burgundy and the nudes. After ordering I went to order status and it said they were now permanently out of stock

[ajj]

I was going to delay my spending freeze for the MJ eyeliner set. It is out of stock. I think that is a sign. Officially on a freeze! For real this time.

well, I think I got the ones I ordered. I haven't gotten an email saying "Oops!" yet but it has only been about 45 minutes or so. I'm feeling guilty about ordering what I did and I only spent $35 LOL I am almost out of foundation so I need to order it too but ugghhhh we're just too broke. I'm sitting here with my finger over the checkout button on my second (larger) order (I made the small order to get one of the sample bags) trying to pull the trigger but am hesitating. LOL

LOL, you get your sample bag, I get my red bite duo?  I have the nude one already (by nude you mean retsina and musk, right?).    I could see this working.

It didn't list the color names on the nude one but said nude rose/ light brown nude. It listed poppy/scarlet for the red one. Seriously, if you want it, it's yours. It would allow me to justify going ahead with my foundation order. LOL

LOL!  Yeah, I actually will take it to help you justify your big order.  That's the only reason.  Not because I have an unnatural attraction to bite minis.  PM me where to send paypal payment and how much for tax and shipping.

Okay I will do that as soon as I know they shipped to me.
