I know, lol. It's the greatest feeling getting packages but the worst when ur waiting, stalking some delivery website & then watching it sit for several days not moving cuz of some stupid schedule.
I felt like that when I finally splurged on my Clarisonic after wanting it for so long, I just wanting it to get here already so I could play with it.

Your Nikon pick sounds great, I always want to save & splurge on a new 1 too but always get sidetracked with something else I need to pay for or buy, haha. Can't wait for the new pics, I'm sure when u get it they'll be awesome. .. and PS: there are alot of us on here that LUV our furbabies & spoil them rotten so ur definitely not alone, mine even get a whole bunch of bday & holiday presents.
I've been playing with my camera the last couple of days... I absolutely love it!

But speaking of furbabies, here is a shameless pic of mine that I took with my new camera =] And she also gets Christmas and Birthday gifts, so... you're in good company.

Also, I never got the gift card email so I messaged Sephora on Facebook and one of their customer service people got back to me within the hour with the card number and pin. Super quick and easy! Maybe some of you gals who have bad phone/email experiences should try their Facebook? Their email responses have always been useless to me but social media is great. And I was able to use a promo code with my gift card - I'm happy about it, but annoyed on behalf of all you ladies who couldn't.
Thank you so much for your suggestion. I contacted them via FB and was able to get my card and pin!!

I just got back from using my GC in the store (Nars Cordura e/s duo, blue Smashbox primer and a Sephora brand nude eye liner). I waited in a line of about 5 people, it was moving sort of slow since the store only has 2 tills and one was being used. I expected it to be busy because of the time of year so it didn't bother me to wait. When I got up to pay for my stuff I showed the clerk the email of the GC and my VIB rouge card. As soon as he saw the card, he apologized for the wait and said that "because you're ROUGE" if there's a long line next time I come in, just to ask one of the workers to check me out using mobile checkout so I don't have to wait. He said they don't advertise that they have them but to make sure to use it if there's a long line. Is this a common Rouge perk in most stores that I didn't know about before? I was my first time actually making a purchase in the store since making Rouge. I was just wondering.
I live in SF (Sephora is HQ'd here) and they offer mobile checkout to everyone at the Powell store if you pay with CC

I just might...


How are you supposed to pronounce Bahau5?

I think she might have done a play on the word Bahaus

I just ordered sugar plum the other day from Nordstroms, they were discounted to $10!!
I really like the Philosophy shower gels, know it's suppose to be a 3in1 but they dry my hair out so I only use them in the shower/bath. With all the scents it can be hard to definitely pick one so I get the dilemma. I always grab a few in Cinnamon Buns for presents (smells exactly like that) and I just got Have a Cherry Xmas (kinda reminds me of cherry coke). Philosophy is doing a 3/33 special till the 5th (code: cheers) and also 30% off all Purity.

HOB how is Sugar Plum ..? I was eyeing that 1 too and also Candied Apple.

I've only used one of my stains, and I liked it, but I may like the tint-in-oils better. They feel even more moisturizing!


I saw that! I've been checking the website almost every day since Monday! Finally got my gift card via email so I used it to order two last night!


They don't feel oily at all! I got to try one at a Sephora Beauty University event several weeks ago and my first impression of these were that it's great for a nice hint of color on my pigmented lips and the formula is very moisturizing. The color deepens a bit, too, which I really liked!
which 2 did you get Yasmin..? I ordered Pink abt Me so I hope it looks nice on me.

It hasn't arrived yet :(. I also got animal cracker because of the good reviews. Btw if philosphy doesn't offer free shipping, Nordstrom will price match online.

Guerlain bronzers are really nice as well.
I second that!!

Bronzer can be tricky to buy for some1 unless your the same skintone or you've bought for them b4. Hoola doesn't showup on my skin but I'm glad it wks for you. I have a ton of bronzers & highlighters too but Guerlain is my all time favorite when it comes to bronzers... defintely try them in person if you can cuz there are several colors *and they have some beautiful 1's for fair skin girls like yourself.

I got mine, and like all of you, I have no idea what to get.... Anna? Polish? perfume? MUFE shadows? YSL lip tint? Guerlain lippie? Balls?
I'm with you on the undecided part.... but hey I say get it all!!!!
girlhaha.gif


*someone needs to strap me down in teamlowbuy, or at least offer some meetings like they do with AA, lol.
 
Bronzer is hard to pick up I find! It can easily look muddy and dirty!
How does TF Milk Chocolate Bronzer compare to Hoola? I really enjoy Hoola as more of a contour color, but Milk Chocolate has always been intriguing to me simply because of the sweet smell of chocolate!

Hoola always looked too muddy on me. I really like TF Milk Chocolate for bronzing/contouring. Its more of a neutral shade. TF Chocolate is darker and for me is more of a bronzer shade. I really like them though. They're creamy and smell amazing!!

In the single shadows, what colors did you get? I'm wondering if its the finish. Of all the colors that I have the only one I have not been impressed with I922.
I actually have a few different finishes - matte, satin, and iridescent. They all seem to perform the same way on me. The only way I can get the pigment to really show up on my eye is if I use my finger.

Her name is Abby but she's got a billion nicknames. When she was little I called her Abbra-Doodle or Abby Doodle which turned into Doodlebug. She answers to any of them, but her favorite is Pretty Girl. She goes insane if you call her Pretty. Her tail goes a million miles an hour and she gets the typical lab grin. She's actually dark for a chocolate, a lot of peoe think she's a black lab at first. I just say shes better cause she's dark chocolate ;)
