Sephora Friends & Family 2013

[nazih09]

I just got my Hourglass palette and it is scratched up (which I'm okay with), but it too looks like it's been swatched and I could tell where the tape was removed and put back on again!! WTH!!! I'm so mad, but idk if it's worth it to call Sephora and complain because I feel like I'll just get another swatched palette!

I would go to sephora and try to exchange it for an unswatched one.

Oh no... Now I'm nervous for Hourglass palette that gets here tomorrow. Why all these issues with this one product?

Anyone have a link to a full pic of this Hourglass palette? I feel out of the loop

From T's site: http://www.temptalia.com/hourglass-ambient-lighting-palette-review-photos-swatches After looking at her pics, I don't think my palette was swatched. I think it just may naturally look that.

Well MissTT and Richelle83, my wallet and I officially thank you once again. After much deliberation I finally placed my FF order, and thanks to you guys I saved $75!!

I mostly got boring (but expensive) skincare stuff:

-Kate Somerville Nourish Daily Moisturizer
-Kate Somerville Line Release Under Eye Repair Cream
-Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment
-Sunday Riley Ceramic Slip Cleanser
All of the above purchases were inspired by Caroline Hirons and her amazing skincare blog. My skin loves her and my bank account hates her guts.


The only fun thing I got was:
-NARS And God Created The Woman Set
I'm not sure what took me so long to get this palette but I'm so glad it was still available. When the VIB sale comes around I definitely plan to get more actual color in my shopping basket!

Whos walkthrough are you watching for BEYOND:TWO SOULS? I've been following theradbrad since he demoed Dead Space 2. I love the Sims! I even have the kindle fire version of the Sims downloaded on my tablet. LIke you said I'm buying ACIV and Batman because DUH Batman and Pirates!!!

I started to watch Pewsiepie's but stopped after a few minutes because I didn't want to ruin the story for myself, hehe.



If you guys hadn't heard of it yet I just finished the first part of, "The Wolf Among Us" and it was awesome! It's a kind murder mystery but all of the people in it are storybook characters and they're in the modern day. It's quite dark and very story driven. I played it on Xbox but I believe you can get it from Steam too if you want to play on PC. (I think it would be gentle enough for your laptop too @Knope2012

).


Here is a play through by a female youtuber I enjoy if you'd like to see if it's something you'd be interested in: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5h0bLQCzjv4

I just talked to my girls at JCPS and she said that she doesn't have all the details yet but she knows they are going to hold two separate events in November - the regular sale for VIB & BI and then another event just for VIB & VIBR. She also said that she heard they will have at least 25% off for VIBR. I can't wait to find out what all they have in store for us

Oh crap... looks like I'll be spending more money I don't really have. Poor credit card. At least I kept my order for F&F small. I only ordered a NARS blush and a Tarte blush palette. Best self-control I've shown in a long time!

Please don't throw me to the wolves but before today I was not familiar with the Hourglass palette. So when everyone was discussing I kinda was zoning out of just skipping over.
BUT now that I've seen an online review I have a question---
Any feedback from women of color on this palette? Does it show up on someone of an NC44 tone?

 

[Kaori]

I think if the palette has a piece of paper on top of the shades, that may do it, since its all moving around as they ship it, its very finely milled powder so my guess is that any light motion could affect it =) I think somebody even say to be careful with it when traveling so it wont break

 

[lacey1989]

Hey everyone How I have never heard of this community until now is beyond me. Lol,thank you google. I hope that this isn't inappropriate,but I was wondering if it would be at all possible to get my makeup loving paws on a friends and family code. Not to give an eye roll worthy pitty plea, but as my nearest sephora is almost three hours away I rarely am able to go. Purchasing online is my usual go to. I'm sorry if anyone is annoyed by me asking this,but it really would mean a lot to me

 

[DeeDee2013]

I'm so excited. My order is due to be delivered tomorrow. Thank you again MissTT and Richelle.
