I forgot to use ebates again! Grrrr!

I had a sample of the new NARS foundation and loved it, but it wasn't the right color. So I went today to figure out the right shade so I can order next week with my 4x points. There is no shade that matches me 

I got two samples one from Laura Mercier and one YSL, that the MUA said were similar.  I'll have to see how I like them.

I went to Sephora tonight because I felt like it. I swatched a whole bunch of things, then bathed myself in the fig scented Atelier, which is AMAZING.

The Sephora brand matte contour gel liners are fucking amazing. Temptalia reviewed earlier this week, and gave them good marks, so I wanted to check them out. Holy shit. I can't get them off my arm after scrubbing with makeup remover. And the colors are incredible. I wish the color range was bigger though I suppose my wallet is grateful.

I also like Bite Opal.

I did not buy anything because I'm waiting for the points promo. Not like I have anything to do with my points, but it's the principle of it.

I just ordered all of the samples from atelier for 25 dollars. I am overwhelmed (I think there are 23?), but so far so good. I will have to look for the fig one. I still haven't opened most of them.

This exists?! Did it come from Sephora?

The fig one is the best. Try that one tomorrow!

@koko, how are you liking the new Re(Marc)able foundation?  
Anyone else tried it? Thoughts? 

I've read the color system skews dark and to choose a shade lighter than you think. Beauty.professor (NC 25 - 27) got 33 Beige and beige golden, but others my shade (NC 20) have gone to the ivory and fair shades, 12, 14, 26, 27 or 28. So I'll have to go in and swatch myself.  This is not in IQ or findation yet and temp.talia hasn't swatched. 

BP with 33 and the gold beige


27 & 28 on a blogger 


I would choose 27 based on this pic. 

I THINK it's okay....I'm not sure it warrants the high price tag though.  I need to experiment with it more (it seems to slide off my face by the end of the day but I also have that problem with all foundation).

bonquiqui has been having great luck with the new Dior foundation. Just an FYI. I *think* it is this one

No, not sephora. I kept looking at their sampler sets, but they didn't have the right combo of ones I wanted to try. So I actually went to the atelier site. I was curious about several of them. They had a bestseller sampler and the whole collection sampler or $3 a piece. I found a coupon code that made the big sampler set 25 instead of 30. I think it was "thecandysamples".

I assume these are eyeliners you speak of? I think I might go to sephora during afternoon nap and wander around a bit and return/exchange my Becca souffle

They just posted the full list of stores coming to the new outlet center that opens near me in two weeks. CCO and #makeup <--- had anyone ever heard of this store? I googled but couldn't find anything. I can do some serious damage at CCO.

I love the color of Bite Juniper but it's so hard to put on, I think I'm going to grab a new brush tomorrow morning when I go to Sephora. I also have new eyeliner on my list but that's about it.

My mom packed my bathroom yesterday and was shocked at my makeup collection. She suggested I make friends with a little girl to play dress up with. I told her that's what internet message boards are for! Mom = ?

[secretlyevil]

Oh your mom.

Where is this place?

Gloucester County Premium outlets, about ten minutes from the bridge on 42.

I'd imagine I'll be there quite often, lol. Shopping GTG!!!
