All Things Sephora

[TwiggyPop]

I knew something was going to happen to keep me away from the goodies! Some douche stole my debit card info and charged $500 worth of power tools on eBay. I had to cancel my card and I probably won't get the new one until next week sometime. It might be for the best though, we leave in less than 2 weeks for our 10 day vacation in Cocoa Beach and Disney World so I might want to save my money for the trip. Does anyone know what day the KVD lippies are due to be released? I want to be prepared for that! Do we have any Specktrettes that live in Orlando? There are 2 outlets in the area, one of them is only 15 minutes from our hotel. I wanted to see if anyone wanted to meet me for lunch and then drool over makeup at the CCO and CCS.

Awww man TP. That's just so awful---and inconvenient. I'm really sorry that happened to you & hope all is
resolved quickly.

​ It sounds like your vacation is going to be pretty amazing!!!!

Do any of you Specktra peeps have the Cover FX Custom Color Drops? And have any of you tried mixing them with MAC Face and Body? I'm curious about the drops and would like to mix with F&B in White, but I'd like some feedback first.

I have the Custom Color Drops both in my shade and a shade darker. I mix it with MUFE Face & Body, I've never used MAC's F&B so I don't know how helpful my post will be. I like them a lot. Currently I'm mixing the darker shade in my foundation as a summertime adjustment rather than buying a shade up or mixing two different foundations to get a summer foundation match. They do add a wee bit more coverage to your foundation than it would have on it's own but for me it isn't dramatic; it's not making a sheer foundation full coverage with just a drop. The MAC F&B White might be a different story all together. My guess (and it's only a guess) is that it would likely work but that you may need two drops because you are mixing it with something opaque and white versus something sheer or colorless like oil or moisturizer. HTH

PNC Bank is awesome. They don't hold me responsible for fraudulent charges so I'll have that money back within 10 business days, but it does suck that I'm missing out on things I've been waiting for. In other news, I have been on the search for Smashbox Artificial Lights in Flash for about 6 months and nobody had it. I went back to my CCS yesterday and they had about 5 of them. I bought 3! They're lucky they had those because I almost didn't buy anything after how rude the sales lady was. Not only did she completely ignore me, but she was so busy talking to her friend that came in from across the sidewalk that she wouldn't even move out of my way so I could look at stuff. She turned around and looked at me, but still didn't say anything and still didn't move. When I saw my Flash behind her I almost bulldozed that b**ch.

My babies! And I had to get the waterproof brow set for my trip. Haha. I have to be ready for anything!

Ugh, I caved in and ordered it along with the tartelette palette and marc jacobs sheer lip gel in eat cake. I also re-qualified for rouge. No more until I can get my hands on the new KVD liquid lipsticks.

Isnt it the most awesome feeling when you find something sought after at the outlets for cheap?!! I was looking for the discontinued MAC iridescent loose powders for the longest and someone tipped me off on IG that Nordstrom had it...but the lurkers got to it first. A few months later I stopped randomly at the CCO near my job and they had it!!! For 50% off retail!! I promptly bought alllllll that was on the shelf, lol.

I have one of those Smashbox highlighter things! I can't remember which one but it is sooo beautiful!! And good to hear your bank got everything sorted.

I'm so glad you were able to get it for your friend Shars!!!!

Me too! Especially since I didn't have to stalk!

I guess Sephora can start fulfilling all of those orders from yesterday too. Normally, I would have had a shipping notice by now. Even Nordies beat them. I ordered the
YSL Fall E/S quint from Nordies after I placed my Sephora order and I've already gotten my shipping notice.

Mine is late too! I guess they'll be working to get everything out by end of day today since it's the weekend.

I know - I was shocked it was back in stock so quick! It is still in stock now too!

Anyone read the review section? A bunch of people who haven't even gotten it - are reviewing it

.. oh and people complaining it went out of stock so fast yesterday..

Sephora needs to make it possible to report reviews.. otherwise - that section is pointless!

 

[Shars]

Most of the ladies at my CCS are very unpleasant. I hate to be negative but it is true. I go at least once a month.. and it never gets better. I just ignore them now.

I wasn't going to buy it because I thought it wouldnt be flattering on my skin tone, but I caved too..

I keep thinking about getting the Tartelette palette, but I haven't caved on that one yet. I did recently order Lorac's two new palettes from Ulta - they're supposed to be here today!

Unfortunately I've had the same experience at most of the ones I've been to. They're either rude or just unattentive. The only time I had a good experience was at the Deer Park one in NY. Actually, the ladies in the Foley, AL one weren't bad either.

I NEVER read the Sephora review section. Most of the people on there are crazy!

I have been holding onto the last bit of my Artificial Lights for so long I'll bet the pump is clogged. Haha. It dries down to nothing so it's not like layering another creamy product on my face. I hate feeling like I have a bunch of crap caked on my face so AF is perfect! Awesome that you got your friend Champagne Pop! My fiancé let me use his card so I ordered CP and a Hakuhodo brush. Love him!

Oh, I know! I was psyched to find them for $19 each. I wish I could've got the other two, but my whole reason for going to the outlets was to get my fiancé his birthday presents. I got him a pair of Sperrys, a few pairs of swim trunks and a new G-Shock. Can you tell I'm excited for our trip? Haha. I've been buying waterproof makeup, sunglasses, Frozen beach towel for the kiddo, all the beachy stuff.

I stumbled upon a swatch of that Becca highlighter on darker skin and it looked really nice. So far, my face hasn't blown up from using the one I had yesterday so if that one is around in the next week or so I'll try and get it. It's so hot here I was sweating just getting ready to go outside. Then, once I stepped outside I said nope and went right back in. Today is a day for audiobooks and stuffing my face.
