All Things Sephora

Idk who writes these descriptions

Here is the PR release I believe:
"
Each piece in the Karen Walker for Sephora Collection is crafted with the accents of a gorgeous gold tortoise pattern. The collection is designed with an injected plastic process that gives each of the pieces a hand cut polished finish with unique 24 karat plates gold accents.

I saw that, and it made me feel better. Now I just want Sephora to fix the descriptions so people don't get it into their heads that REAL tortoiseshell is a desirable thing to own. I hopped over the the BT boards, and someone over there has sounded the alarm, too.

I just need to let it go. And maybe take a nap.

I went to Sephora today and got a Formula X polish called Alchemy II. I'm not crazy about that brand anymore, but the color looks sooo nice. It's a shimmery multicolored shade. Also, I got a sample of the Cover FX drops and the illuminating primer. I want to try it before I bother getting it for the sale. I got the new Bite Beauty perk, too.

Why?????

Did you get any of those new Bite double ended lipstick thingies?

Just getting caught up. I was out buying tiny real Christmas trees for my outside pots.

Well I'm glad you and V brought it up. I had added the mirror to my loves list yesterday without even reading the description, just assumed it was plastic. It's good to know it most likely is but I'm not sure who thought it was a good idea to write that in the description. Maybe they meant to say it was the 24 karat gold plate that was real but still.

Argh! I don't know anyone who works for Sephora anymore. I guess I'll have to wait until next month's sale

It just doesn't apply and last as long as Nails Inc polishes and the colors..meh. I got the lingonberry/tangerine duo a couple of months ago. It's really pretty, but I don't know if I'll get another.

Yeah, I kinda found that to be true to of the np. I've bought a lot of the Nails Inc. lately.

I got the Pomegranate/Palomino shade. It hasn't arrived yet.

Did you read the description????

It says "The brush handles and stand are made with real tortoise"........

The quality of the Bite double ended thingies haha is just as good as the regular ones. It's all a matter of color preference. I don't think I need anymore of the colors available in the double ended thingies.

Here's what a mod on BT had to say:

Hi everyone! We have confirmed that this is indeed incorrect, there was an error in the description for both products. These products do not contain any tortoise shell, the tortoise shell was meant as a descriptor for the design and the look of the product. This will be updated soon! These pieces also do not include any amber.
Kindly,
Nika
