All Things Sephora

[Audrey C]

Oooooh! Do tell!!! ~
I have not purchased a new handbag in years...seriously! I had one designer I loved, Francesco Biasia (I think defunct now )...and have a pretty nice collection, that lives in dust bags when not being carried...so whenever I am feeling the need for something new, I dig into my closet and pull out something out. It works...shopping one's closet.

Definitely! I like fairly structured, classic bags but I had been buying 1-2 a year and wearing them into the ground for years. I finally decided to try a better quality onec and see if it made a difference. Then I got another couple, etc. In the last year or two, I've been buying a couple at semi-annual sales. I have 8-9 now in dust bags and I rotate them frequently. I don't think I'd want many more than this (if any); I've got just enough to have a nice variety and switch them out often. I like that I can drop a couple off at Coach after I using them awhile and then pick them up cleaned, conditioned and looking brand new a day or two later.

I'm being boring and ordering eye cream with my $15 off. Necessities only for now because I just made a big handbag purchase.

I only got Mugler Alien shower gel (i am running low ). I always have to have it

Ordered one of the new MJ eyeshadow palettes and some hair elastics to hit $50. All the $1 palettes are oos.

I resisted the blue, and ended up buying this completely impractical but glorious one (and a small wallet to fit into it) instead. It was half price or I'd never have bitten. My hubby and I are going to Paris for a week for our 25th this fall; I'm going to bring this to wear with dark jeans and a fitted leather jacket or maybe the little black dress I have in mind for our anniversary dinner.

Access Denied

That sounds perfect! Enjoy your special day

I need help regarding the NARS eyeshadow primer. Is it possible that it can go bad within several months? I've had mine for less than 6 months and it now causes creasing every time I use it. Never had this issue before with this primer so I'm pretty bummed as I've tried many and have a hard time finding one that really works. Any other primer suggestions while I still have my coupon? Already tried UD (all variations, TF (all variations), MAC paint pots and regular primer, and NYX (regular and glitter glue). I remember trying Smashbox but don't remember if it worked or not so maybe I'll get that one. Eyeshadow primers are so hit or miss for me, it's really frustrating!

Wet n Wild! Photo focus Eyeshadow Primer! Amazing! No harm giving it a try. It is super cheap and beats all of these.

Thanks, I will pick that up. In the meantime, I just bought the NARS aqua XL color paint to try out. Tomorrow I will be testing it and if it doesn't work, it'll go back to Sephora and I'll stop by Ulta on the way home for the WnW one!

I have the Glamglow pout balm in coral and I really like it! It's a very soft balm though so just a heads up when you first use it. I put my finger in the tub expecting it would be a lot harder and came out with a ton more than I wanted.

Ah thanks for the warning, I would totally stick my finger in and then have tons of balm all over LOL

Thanks to all for posting about the coupon. I almost forgot last night. Well, I did forget until I came on here and then I scrambled to put something in my cart. I got the UD Naked Heat lipsticks and liners. I ended up adding in a perfume that I had been waiting to come in stock and it just came in. A lot for $15 but I was going to get all of it anyway. I received the Naked Heat palette a while ago but have been sitting on it until I got the rest of the products in the collection. So I guess I'll wait a few more days until I get them and try it all together. I am sorry I didn't make 2 separate orders though. There was a promo code for trial size items that I wanted but I couldn't get both and the $15 off. Bummer.

Speaking of Mugler. . . Did you see he has a new perfume out? Europe only right now. Looks really interesting. Aura. I wonder when it is coming to the U.S.

Well, I'm sad to report that the MUFE aqua color paint creased on me. It also looks rather thick and makes my eyelids look crepey. I put on a thin layer and let it set but I think it's going back. Too bad because it seemed like it had promise. I will try the WnW primer as suggested earlier.

Not the best photo...

I just started to purchase nicer handbags a couple years ago, and I like to rotate mine too like Audrey said. However, I just purchased my first "luxury" bag that I have been lusting after for a while...a Chloe So that is the big purchase

Boring is good! I used my code to buy the YSL Touche Eclat. What eye cream is your favorite?

I was using a Clarins eye cream that I did really like, but I decided to try out Belif Peat Miracle. I watch a Youtuber, Gothamista, who says it's a dupe for the SK II. She seems very knowledgeable/educated and has gorgeous skin, so I figured it's worth a shot.

Does the scent linger? I may need to try this. I enjoy the perfume.

I need help!!! Yesterday I ordered one of the new MJ palettes and then ordered a second one today. Lately, I've been in an eyeshadow kick but I think I'm good for awhile. Well, at least until I see the Fem Rosa palette that CP is coming out with.

Those are the same two that I added to my loves list. I can't wait to see swatches if you decide to post any,

Those are the two I was interested in as well. I'm leaning more towards the warmer one, though.

I'll post swatches when they arrive next week

Man, I feel so out of touch. How exactly are you going to use/place the bronzer?

 

[Tknappe]

Awwwww, I didn't get one.

Have you guys used glitter primers before? I had been using one from Too Faced but it's gone right off... texture is like water.... it's weird. I promptly threw it in the bin. Now I'm looking for a replacement. Do you have any recommendations?

I've used the one by NYX and it seems pretty good. Not sure of any other high ones.
