You could always try the code and if it works, great, if not delay for the next deal. From what I read on the Sephora boards yesterday, it seemed like most people were confident there would be something like a $20 off $50+ or something like that.

They have done this every year for like the past 5 years, so I'm pretty sure they will do it again this year. There were also some great $10 BF deals last year, both online and in the store.

FYI, last year I got my "your $20 reward card was mailed!" email on December 4th and my "final weekend to use your $20 off" was December 14. So plan accordingly.

Unicorn powers

Quick Take: power, eternal youth, unicorn, magick


I emptied my bank account to buy this nail polish and it was so worth it. In two days after applying to my nails, I shed my human body and transformed into a beautiful unicorn. HG status, y'all!

OK this description is cracking me up: 

With its highly-pigmented, rich formula, this nail lacquer is long-wearing and chip resistant. It features a custom-designed, patented triangular brush that ensures precise application, its shortened brush picks up the right amount of formula, without air bubbles, to ensure flawless coverage. The long cap is perfectly weighted, allowing the user for control, but also provides an elegant gesture.


So...it's nail polish. With a brush.

My angry not really smokey face. Lorac pro 2 tan, rose and mocha. Since photo I added bite fig to my lips.





eta: and as is fairly apparent, I forgot undereye concealer. Also lord my hair was a mess. It's a little better now.

A crystal encrusted brush, duh. And a formula that turns you in to Princess Celestia from My Little Pony.

Is it organic though?

This is what people miss out on if they're not reading the thread.

Clinique sent me an email asking if I want a free full size chubby stick.

I have half a mind to report them to my spam folder with all the other porny emails!

They seem to love it because they have expanded the name to a line of blushes!!

Has anyone had to change eye primers after starting to use an eye cream? Since I started using the YTBB eye cream, my Stay Don't Stray hasn't been as effective at keeping my shadow from creasing. Boo.

Are you supposed to put eye cream on your eye dome?

Sincere question.

Not racegrrl714 but I don't in the mornings, just at night

Ok, first sephora package arrived. Jack Black stuff for H and he loves it (all re orders)

I got:

Tarte natural beauty blush. I used to love this and now I'm not so sure. It takes some work to blend.

Tarte pigmentation kit. I think I like the blush. It gives a really pretty flush and it's hard to overdo. For $10 I think it's ok. I don't like the champagne shimmery stain stuff.

Stila lip stain in raspberry. I like it, but it's a little too pink for winter. I'll save it for spring/summer

I'm underwhelmed. And a little let down.

My next order is the Bobbi brown corrector (repurchase) and I'm trying the perfekt gel.

Try putting a bit of the stain down, then topping with the blush - the two products work best used together, at least on me.

"Rub our chubby all over your face...you'll love it!" 

This is why I'm a marketing guru. 

[runaways]

I got my hourglass blush palette and skyliner set! I can't wait to use them. I feel like they are really broadening my makeup horizons.

[Vespasia]

Lorac has 2 shadow palettes that will be sold at Ulta on Black Friday only. They are only $12! I am tempted to get the first one but I worry they will be crappy like that Navy palette. 

Vintage Vixen


Sultry Starlet

[Vespasia]

Oh, and it looks like theis is a Cyber Monday only item. It's so pretty and $15. It will probably be online only but if not I wants it. 

[racegrrl714]

oooh I love that vintage vixen one.

[rupertpenny]

Those Lorac palettes would be tempting if Ulta would actually let me order anything ever.

[pixy0stix]

I have a little baby pimple forming by the mama pimple. Blergh. I know better than to try a new face routine. I just needed some moisture!

[ChillyMcFreeze]

My ipsy bag this month is awesome. Whoever said November is the best month wasn't lying. The IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Undereye concaler is magical. We'll see how it wears through the day.

The Wonder Lip Paint came in a fuschia color that scares me a little, but I put some on last night before I showered (my philosophy when receiving my ipsy bag is to put everything on at one time) and my lips were still tinted when I woke up.

The SeaRx Birchsap Moisturizing Lotion almost knocked me out at first, but I like the scent. Maybe just don't inhale as you apply...
