All Things Sephora

[shontay07108]

I just posted this in the HAA thread but I'm going to cross post here because @shontay07108  (and others?) have been asking about the Champagne Pop/Opal comparison. HTH.  Top to Bottom - Opal, Champagne Pop, Moonstone  Left to Right: Moonstone, Champagne Pop, Opal

Thanks a lot! I also saw the comparisons on temptalia earlier. I've decided it's no big deal to me. I can gladly settle on moonstone or opal and take my sweet time doing so. Those things are damn expensive.

Thanks Sis. I was counting on you and or Shontay, Shars & Vee to make some crazy/funny remarks about my
'calcified canal'

I'm not laughing I'm howling right now

Awww I won't make fun of you! I hate the dentist. They're always so gosh darn rough poking in your mouth! Hope they give you the good stuff nice and early lol.

Does anyone know what happens during VIB Rouge week? I requalified for Rouge in store today and a SA told me that there's going to be a VIB Rouge week in August. I wasn't Rouge last year so I was wondering if this happens annually. I really need to stop because I qualified for platinum at ULTA this week too. The addiction is real.

I'm not sure what that could be because Chic Week was in April and the annual F&F sale falls around October/November… Maybe others can chime in.

The calendar on the first page says something about a double/triple/quadruple points week in August, maybe she was talking about that.

I ordered the Becca cp as well.

Will do Ernie!!!! Thanks!

​I hop you love B-CP!!!!!

Thanks Shars--I'll request "the good stuff."

 

[Medgal07]

That's just a sign of how hot it is. I've received lipsticks like that. It makes me panic for a second knowing how fragile lipstick can be, but it's usually OK.

Thanks ladies! I guess we'll get more info closer to the date. She said they'll be sending out emails before the event.

I hope everything goes ok!! I had two root canals, one from a cavity I let go too long and one because of trauma. I was always a rough and tumble kind until I hit 30 so I guess one of my hits to the face caused a severed nerve. It must've been like that for a while because they had a hard time getting down to the root. That one hurt the most so if yours was caught early it will probably go smoothly.

Thanks TP. That's what's so odd---I have perfect teeth & gums and I had no pain or bleeding, but the issue
showed up on Xray only and was relate to meds I had taken. I went in pain free and after all of the drilling had
pain when the anesthetic wore off-----I thought that was just wrong on so many levels---fix me or send me out
the way I came in----NO Pain.

 

[Medgal07]

Yes, I will hun

​Thanks Sis---I knew you'd take care of me!


ET: correct a typo

Makes you wonder if they're lying to get more $$$ out of you.

IIRC, Rouge week last year was a 4x point event and may have been around the time of the last mega rewards round...

It's a common side effect from some chemo drugs and radiation. I am dealing with some issues from that fallout too. I had a root canal years before I had chemo and radiation and of course it exacerbated things more. I have to go in soon to get my teeth cleaned and a filling sorted out...

If the dental hygienist takes to stabbing my gums and lecturing me on flossing I will probably lose it on her.

Anyway, root canals... if they dose you up right, you shouldn't have any pain at all.

Oh no---my regular dentist is so amazing and he was so upset that he couldn't breach the canal---he didn't even charge me for the visit. I'm very fortunate that way.

Oh so sorry you're dealing with these issues too. I told hubs I might need a major Chanel (just preparing him for what I already intend to do) haul after all of this trauma

My hygienist always praises me for my at home care---I'm obsessive about it. They just tell me to keep doing what I'm doing. Clinically things looked amazing.
The X-rays told a different story. For both you and me, this is clearly a case of the treatment being worse than the cure. Wishing you all the best going forward.

I know this isn't technically Sephora related but I finally got a chance to smell Rose Fix+ today and OMG it smells great and you can't smell the Fix+-ness in it at all! I'm returning the Yuzu I bought as soon as it arrives and placing an order for Rose now.

ETA: Except that now I can't find it online (whereas Nordstrom had it yesterday) and the two MAC's I've been to in the last two days didn't have it either so I think hope is lost… That sucks...

Update: Found 'em at MAC Times Sq. Put two on hold! #winning
