I'm returning to the community after a long absence.. and I was a former MAC addict (read: I purchased almost every single item from every 2007 collection) when I joined. anyways, long story short, I knew if I got into Sephora I would be in trouble and, a couple of months ago, it happened.

I made Rouge in less than 2 months. Not to mention the tarte shipment, the "i had to"s from My Makeup Brush Set, LimeCrime's most recent 75% off sale (of which I bought everything that was 75% off unless it was a must-have), and the insane makeup lot i got on craigslist from some girl. My living room is a sea of packages, still, as I desperately try to incorporate my new additions into my already gluttonous collection (which had become grossly mismanaged after YEARS of neglect).

Some highlights:
For my Rouge gift, I chose 750 bonus points
Sephora Eye Must-Haves set
Sephora Sunkissed Glow set
SO MANY gift sets.. I love them.

Anyways, I got the email for the Rouge event happening next week @ 6:45PM PST and opened it right away and located my store. Did anyone else get "This store is no longer accepting RSVPs" right away? I'm talking less than 5 mins from being notified.

Rouge Event? I didn't see anything about that. I'll check my email.

I went to Sephora recently to purchase the Natasha Denona Sunrise palette. Instead I left with the MELT Smoke Sessions palette. If you love greens, golds, greeny golds or goldy greens this is the palette for you. I have yet to use it but it swatched so lovely in store. I hope I'm not disappointed when I finally put this on my eyes. There are six shimmer/ metallic shades and two mattes. The shimmers are very creamy and the mattes pigmented. I know in this case I'm very late to the game but man am I glad I'm here.

Have you looked at the new Christian Louboutin rouge reds? I bought Goyetta and love it! I thought Pats Forbidden Love was my best red but Goyetta is a true true red on me. There's 5 different undertones and I chose the one with the pink undertone as those reds work best for me.

As a red lip queen, you'll certainly find 1 or more that you love lol.

Sephora sent me a $15 off $50 code... debating between getting some small things or the Melt Gunmetal stack.

Mine says spend $75 now & get 15% off later. I think you can do better than that Sephora.

Weird. I got spend $50 now (by July 1st) and get 15% off later (to use between August 1 - 5). Meanwhile Ulta has sent me two 20% off coupons within the last month that are good for prestige brands.

Yeah I got the Ulta codes but still nothing from Sephora. Which at this point I don't care and will only use Sephora to get rid of giftcards.

I did use my $15 of $50 coupon. Got Pat McGrath Divine Mink e/s and Dior Lip Maximizer in Coral. Just about enough to get to $50. I find myself buying mostly everything at Ulta these days. The points really add up to serious savings and the 20% coupons are great.

Anybody order the new CT lipsticks?
Click to expand...

I ordered a few of these....CT is my weakness! I thought many of the colors looked similar but I can definitely tell the difference on my no-color Saran Wrap lips. Sorry if not all names are accurate..

Dancefloor Princess - soft pink, very wearable. Perfect for people who don’t really like pink.
JK Magic - gorgeous. Nude that leans slightly peachy. Reminds me of a more nude bitch perfect.
Angel Alessandra - soft peach.
Glowing jen - bronze rose

i have Amal and Carina’s Star but haven’t tried them on yet. They are very pretty though.

hooe this helps.

Thanks so much dear, that really helps! I was thinking about getting DP or GJ. Some of the photo's look really different, so your descriptions are nice to know.

Nice! Thanks. JK Magic, Dance Floor Princess, In Love With Olivia, Glowing Jen

I like JK & Dance Floor Princess the most. Do you like any of them?

I’ve had JK, Dance Floor Princess and Glowing Jen in and out of my cart a few times, lol. I’m afraid the first two might be too light and too peachy. I find that esp problematic on my good old pigmented lips! Jen seems like the safest choice. When I go back and forth this much I usually end up skipping.

I swatched DP, and it showed up as light yet bright (if this makes any sense; think orange creamsicle) orange on my skin tone. Not a good look. I have trouble with these types of shades looking too orange on me.

Most of the lighter colors do lean towards being peachy on my light skin.

Did you try DP on your lips? It’s definitely pink once you have it on (at least it is on me). I agree about it being bright. I don’t usually wear pink lipstick but this is such a soft color that it works for me.

Not yet. But I will be playing with it more probably today.

Did anyone notice the CT Hot Lips 2 disappeared from Sephora online? Hmmm. I do see them if I go thru the App. Maybe it’s just me.

LOL! So far I've skipped. They look so different shade wise in the tubes, swatches & pics. I need pinky over peachy.
