All Things Sephora

[msvluvsmac]

I can't believe it sold out that fast. Like you said, they only thing I like are a couple of the brow products. I bought the liquid lippies from Macy's and returned them. They were horrible.

I'm cross with Sephora because I ordered that Nails Inc polish last Saturday & it's scheduled to arrive Monday. Way too damn long. It sold out for a bit on Sephora when I decided I needed a backup & so I went to beauty.com and got another one Tuesday and it arrived this morning. WTH, Sephora? And no I didn't bother finding out where they ship from and the distance between me and them or anything, but that standard shipping from Sephora is for the birds.

The glosses and liquid lipsticks are total trash. I do have to say that the two palettes I had by her were nice, but sell out in minutes nice? Nah.

Hell if I know. It's crazy. I knew standard shipping was gonna blow, but my goodness. I was so desperate for a backup that I was going to order from the UK if I had to. :haha: I was surprised beauty.com had it and that's the first time I've ever ordered from them. I'll check them out more often because that shipping was crazy fast. FedEx, too? Awesome. Now I'm looking at more Nails Inc polishes. I'll get them for the sale. I'm sour on formula X now. I don't know. I'm wearing the red I got when my Rouge got renewed and it's fabulous, but that beautiful rose gold didn't last at all. Not messing with them again. I'll stick to Zoya, China Glaze & Nails Inc.

Oh well, I'll stick with my MUFE shadows.

I like ABH eyeshadows more than MAC eye shadows. They are so smooth. I can't comment on anything else though because they aren't easily accessible. The brow wiz is ok but I don't get a natural look with it and it takes too long to make it look natural. I'm faster with my shadow and brush. My eyebrow hairs are sparse though.You know they might release foundation this year right?

I hadn't heard about the foundation. I'll probably stay away from that. I had been interested in their concealer before they released it and I found out it contains bismuth oxychloride. I figure the foundations will too.

Just curious why you gals didnt like the ABH Liquid Lipsticks?

I wanna know too lol...I had to urge to grab em cuz I enjoy my Sephora lip stains. I feel greedy getting anything outside of those

 

[dash4]

Yea they didn't look like.. unwearable orange but not my fav for sure :/ and for that price I'm not about to "settle" lmao
She said she was worried for the glitter but it translated well on the face, so maybe there's hope?


That makes me so sad, I was so excited for them :/
I agree -- no way I would settle. I am just so disappointed..

I was thinking about who that color would look good on and I do not think light or medium skins would.. maybe dark skin, but then it will likely would be used as a blush, not a bronzer.. so what the hell would be the point in buying a bronzer for that purpose, especially when it is $15 more than their blushes..? lol

Someone on here is going to buy it and it is going to look great.. and I am going to have to pull my foot out of my mouth.. I can feel it..

I just returned from my Sephora expedition! The Hourglass Ambient Bronzer in Radiant Bronze is exactly what I thought [hoped!] it would be. The SA wanted to try it on my face (so I didn't actually swatch it) and he applied it liberally to my my entire cheek area (nose to ear) and up through the temple, slightly around the brows, so a sizable portion of the face. It gives a very soft luminous glow that you'd expect from any of the Ambient powders. There are no visible sparkles once applied (what a relief right?!) and I think you could definitely use this all over the face as a finishing powder with a fluffy powder brush. For reference I'm NW45 in most MAC formulas. I think it gives a nice, subtle glow, perfect for Spring. It's definitely more subtle/soft/diffused than the Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Powder in Topaz…. Speaking of Becca….

I've been on the Becca hype train since Becca's first go round in Sephora (any Sephora aficionados remember those days??) when they were d/c'd from Sephora and I had to run around Atlanta and Nashville trying to find small boutiques that carried the line. So yeah, way back. In the wake of the SSP international freakout, I dusted off my old Becca Bronzers in Calypso and Duende and I found that both, but Duende especially, work super well with the SSP Powders. They are the softer/golden brown cousins to Topaz's bronze. They have a pearliness to them, rather than a shimmer/sheen.

I like to wear Topaz over the entire cheek area and layer blush and highlighters over it and then sweep a small amount across the brows, but I wouldn't dare brush it on my forehead (I use the SSP liquid all over, under foundation, but not the pressed powder). Now I take Duende or Calyso and dust it all over and I achieve that same Becca "lit from within" glow on every part of the face. It's really gorgeous. If you can get your hands on either, snatch them up! ACW has Calypso and the two lighter shades. The website says it has Duende but it's actually out of stock, so don't get too excited. I think they are worth hunting down, especially if you can find them under MSRP.

Regardless of whether or not you can find the older bronzers take a look at the Becca Shadow & Light Bronze/Contour Perfector. I purchased it today after thinking long and hard about it for a couple of weeks. If you swirl the two colors together you get a shade that is more golden and a tad more subtle than Topaz so it can go where Topaz can't. The difference between Duende and the Bronze/Contour Perfector is that the latter has that sexy shimmer/sheen of the SSP's rather than the pearlescent finish of the Duende/Calypso. It's very pretty. So much pretty! I can hardly take it!!!

did anybody peep the revamped nano lip liners as "lip liner to go" for $6....

LOL really??

You can get a free deluxe sample of the MUFE step 1 primer right now on sephora's website. The code is MUFESKIN and you get to choose 1 of 5 kinds. I think they're still available. They were when I ordered some stuff Monday.

So they raised the price on the nano liners just because people were actually buying them? And, the ones that were increased from $1 reformulated? For shame, Sephora. For shame.

Glad I hoarded them when I had the chance.

It's really impressive the amount of hype ABH has created on instagram. It's like Mac now. Still, I haven't found anything by them to get excited about outside of the brow wiz and that potted brow gel, whatever it's called. I'm cross with Sephora because I ordered that Nails Inc polish last Saturday & it's scheduled to arrive Monday. Way too damn long. It sold out for a bit on Sephora when I decided I needed a backup & so I went to beauty.com and got another one Tuesday and it arrived this morning. WTH, Sephora?

I fell into the dipbrow pomade hype last summer. It was okay, nothing mind-blowing. Then I fell in love with NYX's brow gel. Now I'm back to wanting less sculpted brows so I've been messing around with pencils (NYX and Wet n Wild). My holy grail for many years has been MAC shadow in Embark. I love the ABH blogger eye shadow palettes though. I have all 3 and use them daily, Amrezy and Tamanna more than than the other (more summery). Other than that I don't pay attention to her stuff despite her IG hype. Was going to try those liquid lips but saw the bad reviews on Sephora and put a halt on that quick-fast.

They gotta be kidding me. Come on Sephora is it that serious? Couldn't leave them at $5? Shoot they were good without being revamped, I need to check that out. Oh wait it's two diff ones now? I can't keep up.
