I'm not a rouge, so I hope everything I want stays in stock until Thirsday... Gah!! Anyone recommend a good waterproof mascara? I use the UD Perversion mascara but after my current one runs out it will be waterproof season woo woo !
Me too! Except it's Friday for me! 17th. I sell Younique so I'd recommend their 3D Fiber Lash mascara (it really is great) but I've been using Tarte's Lights, Camera, Lashes from an Ipsy glam bag and I love it. Their waterproof is Lights, Camera, Splashes. I love the bottle! I may have to get that. Thanks for reminding me, lol. http://m.sephora.com/product/P179924

Hi ladies! Quick question!

For those who went to the event and brought guests, did your sephora give them the makeup bag? I was 100% sure my guest was supposed to get one! They flat out told me no. The store director who was passing out her business cards earlier was even standing right there and said no. I tried to explain it was in my email.

Well... I just found on Beauty Talk that not only did other stores readily give guests the makeup bags... they definitely WERE supposed to! It was included in the FAQ written by sephora themselves. I sent a polite message to Sephora CS on facebook. Not sure what they'll do. To me, it's not about the samples but more about principle and that the customer is always right. I spend enough money there. It wasn't like I was trying to scam them out of another bag! :(


Did any of ya'll have this problem too?

Yeah they were trying not to give guests the bags but I pointed out that the sephora invitation said that guests were also supposed to receive bag and then they gave me it. Pretty sure it was BC I knew the guy! Bc they were giving others a hard time. Ridiculous --- like sephora flat out says that guests receive the bag too??

My mom and mother in law didn't get anything. They said it's just for rouge. There's a VIB Rouge stamp on the sample bag. I just gave mine to my mom. I've never read the email though.

Thanks to all the Specktrettes who recommended the Roller Lash mascara. I bought it today and it's what I've always wanted in a mascara but never could find. I may get another tube before the sale ends. :yahoo::bigthumb:

now THATS a deal I can appreciate!!! Sephora needs to take notes. I dnt shop ulta often cuz I do Sephora but I think i'll start venturing off there for those kinda perks!!
You should! I usually choose to buy items at Ulta because of their points program. I'm platinum at Ulta ($400) and VIBR at Sephora ($1000). I have about 2900 points at Ulta which equates to $160 off of a purchase. I have more points at Sephora and that equates to waiting around for mini perks good enough to redeem my points on. While I do like trying different samples I rather buy full-size items wit

Got two samples of the Cover FX drops, unsure of my shade. But hopefully I love it!

It's all about the math Sephora! That's why I love Nordies, except for the LE MAC collections.

I stayed away from Sephora for a little while, besides the MUFE shadows I got a few weeks ago. But after hearing about all these goodies I might have to get a few things. I need a good fan brush and I want to try the MUFE smoothing primer.

Per Sephora's FB team, *all* guests were supposed to get a makeup bag with samples! Now I am annoyed at my sales reps who put up such a hassle with me. They're crediting my friend 100 points, but she won't be able to get the bag. My location had two full buckets of them. I'll be going back tuesday with all of my correspondance wifh CS in hopes I can get her a bag. I remember last time there was event I was goven a second bag of samples a week or two laters because I was rouge and they still had them around and were trying to get rid of them. So I'm sure they'll still have some when I go back. I wonder why there was such a lack of communication between cooperate and select stores. Sigh! Here is their response on FB:

I used to work at Sephora years ago and there was always a lack of communication. We would receive a box of samples, but had no idea what they were for. We would have some at the registers for months until we finally just started giving them to random people. Other times someone would come in with a print out of something saying they could get a free sample of something for whatever reason and we wouldn't have those samples. I would just grab a couple empty jars and put a sample in there for them. It was frustrating so I wouldn't blame all of the staff, only some of them are bitches. Haha

I kept trying to use what I had first putting it off Meddy! Darker foundations, concealers, powders. But everything ended up looking too harsh or just not quite right. I basically gave up since I never had the need to do it anyway and looked fine, lol. Nothing I hate worse than looking like I contoured. People are taking it to another level now that I don't want to go. Watching too many YT vids! It's an epidemic!

Oh it is, and all of the makeup companies have jumped into the pool. Nothing new for contouring for me---using up what I already have!!!

My guests arrived and I put down the computer and somehow it still submitted. LOL
