Bare Escentuals girls....

[Mermaid02]

I called last night to cancel my "club" membership. I talked to Alan and found it that it was to be sent to me Monday. I couldn't stand it- I had to have that shipment. No cancellation.

I was wondering how many of you get it directly through the club and how many buy it retail?

 

[Christine]

I buy mine retail--either at Sephora or Ulta. I don't want to deal with the automatic shipments and I need FAR less makeup than what they would be sending me.

 

[Mermaid02]

I was able to get it every 6 months! I wish someplace around here sold it though.

I bagged the club after a few months. My jar of BM lasts me a LOT longer than most and I don't need refills that often. I buy my BM products from QVC.

 

[dg39]

I get mine through QVC. They had a special several months ago. I get a shipment every season. It comes with mineral veil, hi-lo lights, 2 brushes, 3 eyeshadows, lipstick, mascara and a empty compact to put the mineral veil in.

 

[LindsayDunn228]

dg39, I do this too Do you happen to know when the next one is going to be?

 

[dg39]

LindsayDunn, I don't remember when they send it. But, now I just checked on QVC order status for auto delivery and it said its expired. I have no clue what that means. When you have time, check yours and see what it says. I figured we'd be getting the fall kit any day now.

When you are in Orlando, just stop by The Florida Mall, they have a BE store. The girls there are really nice and helpful, way better than Sephora.

i had the club. Then I cancelled it after we moved. They had no record of me cancelling it when I called because charges had shown up. They had mailed it to my old house in another state. Took a couple of phone calls and a month to get them to reverse the charges.

I bought some at Sephora when I was in Vegas a couple months ago, but I'm with the others, it last me much longer than the time between shipments.

I started using BE last year and I have to say my skin has never felt better!
I love the well rested, it really does make me look rested and I'm never well rested LOL!

Does anyone know when QVC will be airing another BE Special?
I usually order just what I need and sometimes a new item to try on QVC, I love looking at all those products and it's nice to know I'm not getting auto-delivery. It does last a long time.

 

[tinkerrn]

I buy mine retail. I first order mine on QVC about 1997. I fell in love with it then. I used to buy it off QVC, but then an Ulta opened up. I just run over there, I also get to SEE and TRY the colors first. It is the only makeup that doesn't break my face out. I did try Philosophy years ago, very similar, but more expensive.

I don't have a club membership or auto-ship on any of the BE. I haven't used a fraction of my mineral veil yet. A little mineral veil goes a very long way. Do any of you really use this stuff up fast? I must be doing something wrong. I haven't even gone through my foundation very much yet.

 

[Beth76]

I cancelled my club membership after the first shipment. I was nowhere near needing a refill. Since then, I've purchased from the BE store, QVC and ebay.

 

[lillygator]

what club membership?

 

[Beth76]

what club membership?

When you buy the kit from Bare Escentuals (and maybe from QVC too) you get enrolled in "the club". They automatically send you a refill every 2 months. But no one I know uses the entire container in 2 months. You can cancel whenever you want. I think they send you a foundation and mineral veil and a free gift each time. My free gift was the Rev-ver upper.

 

[Brise Nannie]

I started getting my shipment via the Club but stopped shipments after I had more makeup than I had face to put it on. I'm lucky enough to have found a local hair salon that sells the makeup.

 

[okeydokey]

I am intrested in trying this product. You all seem to use lots less than the club sends, but how do you do it? The jars are tiny. I've watched the infomercial and they seem to sprinkle just a few flecks of dust on the lid. Does this much really cover your entire face. I was afraid I'd go through the stuff so quickly, it would cost me a fortune. Do you use up the foundation before the warmth?

 

[mickeysgal]

The stuff lasts FOREVER. Just a little bit goes a long way. I've yet to run out on anything and I purchased my BE initially last spring.

Where do you use well-rested? I have only used it as eye shadow base, and then discovered it is really for the face?

I started using it as an eye shadow base also when I found out how horrid it looked when I used it under my eyes. Can we say "wrinkly bags??"
