I was SOOOO worried that my skin would react to it :sweat: but it LOVES it! I could not stop touching my face it was so smooth. I can't stand anything heavy, greasy etc. so this is such a perfect cream for me. I'm going to get other items from the line to try as well.
Sounds magical! So glad you're loving it!

I was going to wait for that holiday palette, but now I think it's pointless. I briefly played with their stuff the other day and not a lot seems workable for me. The blushes in particular do nothing on my skin outside of a pinkish one, but I can't remember the last time I wore pink blush.
Yeah, the blushes don't have much going on. Do you know whats in the Holiday palette already? Blah...I don't want to think of the holidays already!

Some reviewers complained of the fragrance, but it only has a little bit of a slight refreshing spa like smell. Very light to me. I hate heavily perfumed anything. I just tried a sample of the CT wonder magic cream or whatever it's called. Awful! I hated it so much that I had to wash my face immediately. I found the cream to be heavy & it just sat on the top of my skin blech :yuck:  
Light fragrances I don't mind at all, especially when they're fresh and not floral scents. Can't wait to test this out! Omg, the wonder glow totally agree! I got a tester long ago and it grossed me out lol I felt so greasy and dirty. I threw the tester out.

YES!!!!!!! That is EXACTLY how I felt about it - GROSS! Remember that video where she just slathered a gallon of it on the models face

It suffocated me just watching it. You would think your makeup would just avalanche off your face using it over that crap

LOL, "avalanche off" that visual cracks me up Ugh, yes! She might be able to make it look nice in the moment while working on a model, but to keep it on for any amount of time? No m'am. I can not!

I went to my Sephora JCP today. The brushes weren't on sale, but I did find Bow and Arrow! YAY.

I also HATE marc jacobs foundations. I still can't find a match with this new foundation. HOney Deep 54 is too light, and the next one Eighty something is too dark. Why such a huge jump? I find the same with the other foundation too. I do like his concealer in 7 though. But again, when I look at 6 it's way too beige? Where are the inbtwn colors Marc?

I also got my VIB rouge lipstick and card! yay! I think? LOL

:D I threw all of my 6 sample packs of it out right away ;) I think you would really like the AmrePacific. Too bad they are so expensive....just like everything else we've been buying lately :amused:
Aw, geez. Lol, well, It's par for the course for us these days!

I might go into Sephora again tomorrow because I have a problem and get one of those Hourglass powders. Looking at swatches and youtube videos it seems Diffused could be a nice highlighter. It seems really subtle, though and subtle isn't really my thing so I need to play with it more and see. I'm more interested in Radiant and Luminous. Perhaps Luminous can be used all over? I don't know. Any of you Hourglass fans around? Specifically with an idea of what looks good on darker skin.
I use the Radiant Light----a golden beige, which is a perfect all over finishing powder for me.

That's too bad. CT made it sound like it was the best thing since sliced bread

Yeah, I would be excited about 4x points at a retailer that turned that into a discount or cash, but Sephora offering 4x points is nothing to me. Racking up more points to NOT be able to use on those special point rewards?!? Does anyone know anyone who actually got one of those?
Okay, long time reader but don't post too much! I was actually very lucky to get 2 of those perks. I had set my alarm to get up around 3 and overslept till around 4:30 (eastern)
I found out later that they didn't come up at 3 like they were supposedly going to. Someone said it was around 4am. When I got on, the UD vault was gone but everything else was up.
I started going thru and put the LM set in my cart along with the 2000 perk Drybar and Bobbi Brown. When I checked out (as fast as I could go lol) the LM set was gone. But I got lucky and was able to get the other two.

I think it really sucks that Sephora doesn't come up with a decent plan so that everyone has a good chance of getting stuff. Their point system really sucks compared to Ulta.
I know that I'm prob just going to wait till the VIB sale to go crazy. It's not worth it with the 4x points!

:rofl: I laughed so loud! I know I do LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! They're really nice powders. I want a single of the center powder in the trio palette! I can't remember what it's called right now. I think I'm going to Sephora tomorrow or Saturday :D
Iridescent Light! I want that one in a single too, I swatch it every time I'm in sephora and love it but I can't bring myself to get the whole palette.

Not sure if this had been posted already, this thread moves fast and I'm not caught up Saw this on IG, seems like a pretty decent point perk for 250. They look full size to me?? ETA: The ladies on here have confirmed these are Minis! photo credit to the IGer

First point perk I've wanted in a long time! Hope I can get my hands on it.

@awickedshape, @elegant-one, @vineetha You ladies crack me up. I can never resist a crack at the overtly sexual names of makeup products. And let's not get started on Elegant's Chanel nipples.

YES! I do the same thing every time I go to the store

I don't need the whole palette. I wonder if they will every release it as a single.
