I told DH last night, that if I get furloughed again next week, I'm going to break my no-buy and pick up the keracolor clenditioner to tint my hair purple.

Have you tinted your hair that way before? Tell me about it.

I haven't used that particular product before, but this summer my hairdresser used something similar from Joico to give me pinks and purples on the underneath layers of my hair. I heard about the Keracolor product from one of the YT people I watch, MrKongsMom. She loves it for all over color in her salt and pepper hair and you can control how much color you get by how frequently you use it/leave it on.

I'd just like to share that I successfully put on false lashes for the FIRST TIME EVER. For a costume last weekend. And then didn't get to leave the house with it because I got sick and didn't go to said costume party. Lolol. But still. Lash triumph!

Id like a cookie now.

did I tell you guys about this?  I popped into the ulta near my office to pick something up the other day.  As I was checking out the employee checks my points and her eyebrows shoot up.  She goes, "Did you know about your points??"  I was like, "what about them?  That there's a lot of them?"  "YES!"

i was kinda dying.  I only have 1850!  Sweetie, please.  
I guess most people really just use them as they accumulate?

I had that happen the last time I was there. She was like I can use XXX amount of points for this purchase and you'd only have to be pay XXX. I did the quick math and said, "no I'll pay cash." She looked at me like I was dumb. I know the game ULTA!

Speaking of points...I have an offer for 350 bonus points for a $50 purchase or something to that effect. If I use my points to pay for my purchase...do I still get the bonus points? Anyone know? This is where I get foggy on point usage.

Probably not? But I don't actually know.

2 months into my no buy year and I'm getting antsy to buy something. I need to reorganize my palettes and lip stuff so I have something 'new' to use. I did pick up a couple of Sephora Favorite kits at the end of 2018 and purposely didn't touch them so I'd have something new to play with when I started feeling this way. I also picked up a Marc Jacob's eye palette at the same time that I haven't touched yet.

I think it's time to put some of that into rotation!

I'm pretty sure you won't get the bonus points if you use points to pay for your purchase.

I don’t think so in this case. I think the only way to get points while using points is if there’s a brand multiplier. I think you can click through the order screen until the last confirm purchase and it’ll show whether you’re getting the points or not.

I am still amazed at how fantastic the alterna hydra gelee makes my hair look when its 3 days after a wash and the ends are looking like straw. I threw some in my hair tonight to meet DH after a friend stood him up
for dinner and he asked if I did my hair.

I’m going to be sad when I have to repurchase bc of the new packaging, but I’m sure I’ll get over it.

Do you wet it and apply or do you apply to dry hair?

March 1 is just a few days away which means spring makeup! That may help. 😁

I was planning to swap in some springy colors, so that should help.

I'm going to a concert tonight, so I did my eyes up more than usual, so that was fun.

So I ended up doing some quick weird points math and decided it was worth 750 pts to get $30 off my purchase I did for the bonus 350 pts. So really I ended up only using 250 pts if I count the regular points I earned. The person who checked me out was amazed at my pt skills. Also I did a screen capture shopping list. He was in awe. LOLOLOLOL.

Apply to dry ends and flyaways. Makes my hair look smoooooth and silky and brings back some wave from day 1.

The sparkly gold shade named "inheritance" in the midst of all the waterfront inspired names cracked me the hell up.

I haven't bought anything lately, been trying to use what I have but I have a Sephora GC burning a hole. I was thinking of getting the Naked reloaded. Considering my original is I don't know how many years old...
