GUYS IT'S OFFICIAL! http://www.temptalia.com/urban-decay-naked3-eyeshadow-palette-launches-november-2013

UD announced it a few days ago. There's already a discussion thread started http://www.specktra.net/t/185544/naked-3-is-real/60#post_2506051

I had to exchange a blush in-store yesterday and the first thing i do when i pull the item off the shelf is open it to make sure it hasn't been touched. When you're shopping from a place where the customers grab their products from shelf, it's what you have to do :dunno:

very true, lesson learned. just duno why people open and test items when there's testers. smh.

I managed to buy only a few items from this sale, I purposely stayed away from Specktra to not be lead to temptation :sigh: I bought a few more BB's, Marc Jacobs foundation and Anastasia brow wiz. I love the packaging on the MJ foundation but I'm still unsure of how I feel about the product itself.

JUST got my package and I opened up my LM palette and it looks like someone scraped their nail against one of the eye shadows. Took a chunk out. While my vice 2 had finger prints in the eye shadows.... WTFFFFFFF:fuse:   edit: Caved in and bought the hourglass ambient light palette earlier since it was online and since my area is out of the LM palette I can only in store exchange the Vice 2 palette for a new one. UGH. idk why this happens to me. When I bought the naked 1 palette online at sephora it had major finger print marks on the eye shadows?! gross. :barf:

I always fear something like this whenever I make purchases online. Last year my items weren't packaged very well but I was able to exchange them in store.

I really enjoyed this thread as a good makesup discussion for various brands (rather than being brand specific). I'm going to miss it!

Same here. You ladies complete me.

 

[MAChostage]

Agreed! (But if they send me a sample of Serendipity one more time... Seriously! I now practically have enough for a full size, and I don't even care much for it.)

Awesome! Fyrinnae has great stuff. Hopefully they'll send you a loose eyeshadow sample too; I love those.

My on-line order will be here Thursday

but I going to return the Marc Jacobs foundation I purchased in the store

I cant get it to go on right I've use 3 different brushes and the foundation does a strange thing like it exfoliates my skin or the foundation balls on my skin...

strange plus the color is off

 

[Bcteagirl]

Had it not been for you ladies I'd be $500 richer. At least. But it's been fun.

I agree - a Sephora themed thread would be great. I don't know if we need a mod to start one though. Can't anyone start a thread?

I will try! We can use it for reviewing what we bought, black friday sales, the coupons, VIB questions etc. Hold on!

 

[Bcteagirl]

Ding ding ding!

I bought the Guerlain foundation and I'll be returning the Kat Von D. I'm so glad the 20% off still worked!

What color are you in the guerlain? And which one? Lingerie de peau?

 

[walkingdead]

The code is still working. I really want to get the give me more lip set but I've bought soo much already and my husband is going to flip if he's going to see another package.

Beige Clair in Lingerie de Peau worked really well for me, so I bought that one. It seriously makes my face look amazing. It's thinner than some of the foundations I've tried, but works great with a beauty blender.

 

[purplemaren]

I love thin foundations! How does it smell?

 

[Kaori]

They added interesting 500point mystery bag perk *-* but I shall be resisting, I'm guessing the to mystery things are fragrances, hmm

Don't tell me that. I didn't hear it. Nope. Not going to even look.

dammit.

Going to have to go look at that! Thanks!

Edit: Annd they are gone! (At least I don't see it online).

I saw the Still bonus back up online earlier as well. Not sure if it is the brand for me or not, but the bonuses are a good way to try out new companies.
