I have to check out Burberry. My husband basically melts when I wear Flowerbomb. Candy is amazing but I don't own it and I haven't had J'Adore in a few years but recently have thought of repurchasing it. I'm a sucker for perfumes!
I love perfumes too! I just tried a Jo Malone today and I want it so badly. I wish Sephora sold her perfumes. I'll have to try Candy at some point. My husband didn't notice when I wore Flowerbomb today, so I'll have to try it again this weekend

Could anyone suggest a good sunscreen to purchase during the sale?
I am between Clarins and Shiseido. I am open to suggestions though!

Does anyone have the Too Faced Loves Sephora palette? It's on sale and has some pretty colors that are just my style.

Can't decide if I want the Urban Decay Vice 2. I already have 2 big shadow palettes from them. And three smaller ones from them. Plus two princess palettes. Do I need it? One thing that's pulling me is that they are all new shades! I saw that too. Think I'll def get it. I need a good night cream for the winter. Its between this and Origins must haves set. Think I'm going with the korres one though.
My list will never stop changing. Just a head's up, but if you get your skincare from Sephora and would like to stock up, check to see if your brand is selling any holiday sets. I'm in love with the Korres Sleeping Facials, and they're selling a set where for the price of the facial, you also get a cleanser and day cream: http://www.sephora.com/yoghurt-advanced-nourishing-trio-P383406?skuId=1560994. I'm considering being good and getting this instead of one of the palettes in my cart.
I know girl me too!! So sad we missed out :cry:

I would get one. I haven't tried the nude colors, but Lovelight and Naked both look amazing. I'm picking up a few during this sale myself.

http://www.xsparkage.com/new-urban-decay-revolution-lipsticks-nude-shades-part-1/ I love her swatches of the nude shades
Thanks for the link! It's interesting because in her swatches, Lovelight looks much sheerer (and obviously more shimmery) than Naked. I haven't noticed this so much in other people's swatches. Maybe that means they're not too similar after all?

http://www.phyrra.net/2013/07/your-...-the-new-urban-decay-revolution-lipstick.html On this page, Lovelight definitely looks sheerer. Lovelight is on my list for later; it's just so pretty!
I just came across that site a few minutes ago in my search! I was also looking at T's comparison between the two. The colors really do look almost identical to me...I guess it's just a matter of the finish. Do I spend $22 for basically the same color in a different finish? (Well ok, $17.60 with the 20% off.) Not sure if it's worth it. Although the good news is: I'm sure I'll like it since it's so similar to my Lovelight!

Maybe if I'm debating it this much, I really don't need Naked. Or Native.

That's a tough call! I don't own many colors in those shades because I haven't found "my" nude color yet, but I do own many reds and fuschias in slightly varying shades. it just depends on how much you love those shades and if you think you would pull it out for a slightly different look. Somehow I don't have 2 entirely identical colors, but a lot of mine are close!

Should I get another UD Revolution lipstick during this sale? I've been debating getting another one of the lighter shades since most of the ones I've already got are bolder colors. The only tame ones I have are Lovelight and Protest. Of the two, I like Lovelight better. What other nude/soft color would everyone suggest? I'm thinking Naked, Fiend, Native, or Rush. Naked looks like it might be too similar to Lovelight though.
I'm NC 45 in mac and I bought UD R in Naked. It's beautiful pinky nude on me...

I have and love it! I reach for it daily but that's because I use Chocolate Soleil to contour. Lol. But when I'm doing color on my eyes I still reach for it a lot, even if I'm only going to use one or two shades from it. I always want to incorporate it into my look somehow!

Anyone here tried SKII products? They have a value set for $100 and i'm thinking about it...
I only use the Essence at night. It has good moisturized properties and makes my face feels soft. Is the kind of product that you thing is doing nothing but you stop using it and in three days you are wondering: “What’s wrong with my skin?” I don’t use the whole system, only the essence. I actually regret have bought my bottle of essence in the F&F sale because this one came later and totally missed it. Is a good deal, you get two extras for the price of the essence.
The only thing is that if you have very sensitive skin or prone to reactions pitera can give a bad reaction to skin (have read it in several reviews) because is not hypoallergenic.

Thanks! I saw it had a look book. I'm a sucker for books in palettes.

Hmm the "my nude color" raises a point. I already found my HG nude, so I guess I don't really need another one. My lipstick collection is the same as yours, where I don't think any two are exactly alike, but I have a lot of them in the same families (especially bright pinks and deep reds). Nudes are probably the "category" of lip color I have the fewest of in my collection, now that I think about it.


I wonder if it would be too dark of a pinky nude on me then... I'm NC20. Maybe I'll stick with my Lovelight and call it a day, lol.
I'm also NC20 and I definitely have the fewest nudes. I'm trying to improve my eye makeup skills so I have more excuses to wear nudes! I think I will get Lovelight eventually. It looks like a great color on its own or to layer light glosses over. I definitely have a lot of colors in the same families too. Right now, I'm really trying to get more berries

Deep berries or bright berries? I have quite a few in my stash in that category as well if you're looking for some recommendations!

Oh no

I have very acne prone skin that is sensitive so i'm thinking if it's not hypoallergenic then i may get a break out. thanks for letting me know
