All Things Sephora

[shontay07108]

Awesome that you did end up with a perfect match. I was in Sephora yesterday & you could not even get close to the Fenty display to swatch anything. And as usual, what I did look at was all gross on the tubes & display areas

It's crazy that a week later people are just running to the displays. I actually went by three different Sephora's yesterday that I'm not familiar with and I knew where Fenty Beauty was because that where all the people were.

LOL! Wow 3 different ones. Yep, crazy busy with people.

I stopped in Sephora to return all of my Fenty products and they had 3 people stocking the display.It looks like they are doing a good job keeping items in stock.

The only Fenty item I kept is the lip gloss. The shimmer sticks and duo highlighter just didn't impress me. I have products that I like much more for highlighting so I know I'd never use the Fenty.

I'm kind of surprised to see how popular Trophy Wife is - I've seen so many pics and videos where it looks just like a stripe of shiny yellow. Not throwing shade at anyone who likes it, just my opinion.

i'm also not impress with reviews, T's reviews are in the Cs for pretty much all the products she reviewed until now, only missing are the match stick matte ( concealer and contour cream stick) The only thing i'm interested in, so i'm waiting .... I'm kind of happy as i'm been spending a lot of money on Colourpop recently! I need to disable their site on my computer!

When I was leaving the store, there was a girl that only bought trophy wife and as soon as she was out the door, she opened it and took a pick with her holding it to her face.

So there is certainly some sort of allure to trophy wife for whatever reason.

The name alone kind of turned me off. And the pure yellow is a no go with my skin tone. Just not my cup of tea either

I think Trophy Wife is gorgeous, but it's all in the placement. Some bring it down almost to their nose or kinda like a blush and that's not the way to go imo. It needs to be high on the cheekbones and you only need the tiniest bit. Otherwise, I hope you're headed for the club.

I took advantage of the 8% back on ebates and ordered 3 of the Tom Ford girls lipsticks. Grace, Naomi, and Ines are on their way. I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone and ordered something other than neutrals.

the new KVD palette comes out tomorrow. I don't need any eyeshadow but the hoarder in me is screaming BUY IT. What to do.

It doesn't look like pure yellow on everyone. I've seen quite a few people who it's very flattering on. Just like how some of us can't wear icy colours. One man's treasure, right? I'll have to wait to swatch it in store before deciding which side of the fence I'm on. It'd work amazing on me as an eyeshadow but that would be one expensive eyeshadow lol.

I got the new Marc Jacobs lipstick in the leopard print case today & it's really lovely on. It's a light warm nude rose shade.

Yeah the Sephora associates were wearing the highlighter duos as eyeshadow and although it looked pretty, I wasn't interested in buying it just to wear as eyeshadow. A lot of people are buying the collection simply because Rihanni name is attached to it which is fine but I'm personally not going to buy anything that doesn't work for me just because a celeb is endorsing it.

However I do like the fact that there is an extensive offering of dark to deep foundation shades which was very much needed and evident since that was the only thing to sell out in the line.

Huda Desert Dusk palette arrived today. It feels more substatial than the rose gold palette. I do still wish it had the clear top. The photographs/art work on the front is very striking. I also ordered the summer highlighter palette too. It is quite nice as well. I just wonder if she plans to put her picture on all her products. Also when I was at Sephora 34th. I saw spaces for the Huda foundations. I guess they are coming soon.

I agree! I think it looked absolutely stunning on most of the WOC who tried it, and honestly, the deeper her skin, the prettier it shined. I think it's such an important product even if it won't work for many people. So many of the highlighters out there go a bit ashy on deeper skin tones, especially when applied enough to get an intense glow. I think that gap is what TW is trying to fill. And then there's MM as a complete opposite...super light and subtle.

Exactly!! As long as we all get catered to, we'll all be happy. I'm looking forward to the ricochet this brand is sure to start in the beauty industry at large!

Natasha Denona Sunset Palette set to restock October 26th online at Sephora, Beautylish and Natasha Denona. Also well be available in stores but I'm not sure if the date is the same. I can't wait!

I'm optimistic given how the IG posts sharply increased that feature WOC, or brands trying to showcase shade diversity within their ranges. Which, granted, most of those brands don't have true shade diversity, but some do! Hopefully, more will soon!

I noticed the shade change in social media as well. There are a few brands that do have diversity but they don't do nearly enough to market their lines across the various demographics. Estee Lauder and Lancome come to mind immediately.

Too Faced has their liquid lipstick in Gingerbread Man and I ordered it from their site Saturday and it's snail mail. My order is still processing, so you know I am pressed seeing that Sephora just got it today. I had no idea they would get it so soon. I did get a discount on the item, but I would've preferred paying full price and getting it in two days than having to wait a week or more. I don't even like Too Faced, but I'm obsessed with gingerbread and it's supposed to smell like it. The shade seems pretty, too.

 

[elegant-one]

Shontay...LOLOL!!! You & your makeup smells If it's done right, Gingerbread could really smell yummy. Mix that with your coffee nail polish
