All Things Sephora

[honey on boost]

They have two separate (different) barcodes.. One for regular Sephora's..and one for JCP Sephora's.

I just logged into an email that I used to have signed up with Sephora - that account is still a BI.. and they sent a $15 off $50 coupon, even though I haven't used that account in a few years. :/

My sister and my hubby sent me their $15 codes and I loaded them into my iphone wallet and used them at JC Penny Sephora and got a Nirvana dry shampoo for free. I didn't have to spend the $50 since I loaded them onto my wallet.

I think I'm gonna use my $25 off at JC for the anti aging glam glow kit.

I like to rub it into my palms first to warm it up and then just press it gently against the face. It really makes you look like you had good night sleep. Just rested, more fresh. I am so dry during the winter that I often use it in the morning when I wake up with a skin like a dryed out plum

Thank you, I'm sold! I'll try to get it next week.

You're welcome and thanks! I'm trying to use up the Kiehl's now while looking for a new moisturizer myself. LOVED belief Aqua bomb at first, but my face reacted poorly. Not normal break out, but a ton of tiny little bumps that were skin colored. Some turned red, but they all just sat there until I stopped using it. I had about a week/week and a half of samples. Moisture Surge is one I'm considering.

The best eye cream I've ever used is actually Bobbi Brown's. It's way too expensive, though, and if it gets in my eyes it burns. I also enjoyed a Caudalie one, but I forget which one...also too expensive for me.



Yeah, I meant not as a daily moisturizer. And I completely agree! Amazing stuff!

I haven't used a lot of eye creams, the avocado one was my first. I've tried the OH eye gel but I don't like the feeling. I have a mini of D&G eye gel and it's really good but it's too expensive.

They are also e-mailing a copy of the gift cards. Mine arrived a few days after I got the coupon in the mail.



I love Mac comfort cream and Bobbi Browns Moisturizing cream.

Thank you, the MAC one sounds great!

Like EO, I like the Ole Henriksen one (Sheer Transformation) and it works really well with their overnight skin resurfacer (Invigorating Night Treatment). If you need more moisture, since that one is pretty lightweight, you can also try the Fresh Black Tea Age Delay cream. My skin lovvvveeeed that. It's expensive but always included in little kits. I'm not sure, though, if it's otherwise available in the UK or whether it's one of the brands Sephora US ships out to the UK. I also like the Origins night-a-mins but don't love, love it.

Thank you Shars! I've used it like that too - I got them in a set. My skin felt really nice in the mornings but I think I need more hydration during the day. The other one is outside my price range atm.

Another rave for Clarins' Beauty Flash Balm here. When I was in college and operating on 3-4 hours of sleep most nights, I used this pretty much every day under my makeup - pressed it into my skin (concentrating on the cheeks and jawline) and it really helped with the puffiness.

How have I missed this cream?? It sounds really amazing!

I used my $25 card on the Dior J'Adore Body Milk........it said "only a few left"

I think so. I've always enjoyed samples of Moisture Surge but never bought it because it was more pricey than my tried and true dramatically different moisturizer. Then they reformulated dramatically different and it now causes me to break out....so sad. The gel version is nice, but doesn't moisturize me enough sometimes.

I bought the Kiehl's because of the hype, and I honestly do not get the hype....nothing special to me. Will not repurchase when I'm done. Thankfully bought during a 20% sale. Feel the same about their avocado eye cream. I don't get the Kiehl's love, but it's probably just not suited for my skin/body chemistry and is for a lot of people.

Monsy seems to know Clarins well...it's my understanding that the beauty flash balm is not a moisturizer. I have it, love it, and think it's worth the hype. It has chemicals in it (forget what their called) that actually lift and hold skin, which is why you have to apply it differently and then not mess with it. Lisa Eldridge talks about it in one of her favorite skin care videos.

I don't get the Kiehls hype either! I've tried everything from skin care, hair care, body care that so called HG lotion and none of it was impressive. I guess it's one of those brands you either hate it or love it.

Ooh, I will check out the shower gel too. I just love the smell so much.

LOL! It has to be a marketing ploy because it gets me every time

 

[shontay07108]

Today I actually got my card in the mail.

Wow! Thank you! I was able to grab Lavender Thistle..

Yeah it probably was just a dude because I love the brow wiz and don't have any problems with it.

I feel like such a dope. This morning I checked my bag to make sure I had my receipt and brow wiz in there for the return later in the day. Well, I found 2 brow wiz. I remember putting it in my bag the other day thinking I had already done so. Well, it turns out the dud was the one I had finished. The new one was fine. So I really didn't have much need to go to sephora today. I took a quick look anyway but didn't buy anything. I'm still thinking about what to get with my $25 off card. Speaking of Anastasia, I took a quick look in Macy's at the brand namely the lipgloss set and the shadows and the highlighters. I'm on the verge of getting the gloss set. Sounds like a good deal and there are 2 colors in there I had planned to buy anyway. Highlighters look good and shadows but I was blown away by the new shadows Specktra & Anastasia posted on IG so I may just wait and get that instead.

Someone on another forum confirmed you can use the GC twice - Sephora and JCPenny. I'm going during my lunch break to see if it works.

Another detriment for the people that Sephora didn't bother to grant gift cards to.

You can add them to your Wallet? If you don't mind me asking were you able to enter both the online and inside JCPenny coupons onto the Wallet?

That is so ironic but good that it wasn't actually an issue. I'm going to make a trip to JC Penny since you can use the code there too but I have no idea what I want.

I do too. I had 2 backup bottles . I just used one up completely. I almost never use up the whole fragrance. THey recently came out with hair mist and body oil too. I am wearing it today it has such an amazing longevity.

Snicker..... What did you get

I didn't know about those either are the bottles not that big?
