Awesome, sounds like you got some good stuff!

My Sephora order contained Bobby Browns Natural Finish Foundation, Nars Blush (orgasm), and Bobby Brown Finishing pressed powder.

Since the 15% off goes until next Friday, I'm starting my second list now! Dior lip gloss, makeup brushes, eyeshadow.....still browsing... Hoping to put a lot of Sephora gift cards towards this. I'm working Viggle to the bone!

I got 8000 points last night! I'm gonna start doing it on a separate account from my iPad as well so I can double dip.

Sounds like you've got some good stuff planned as well!

Oh my gosh, what a great idea! I would so do that if I had more than one device.

Has anyone tried the Sephora + Pantone Color of the Year sets? I'm really interested in the lip gloss or nail polish set. Love those tangerine colors! It must be a new product, I'm having a hard time finding pics of color swatches..

I bought the blushes. I like the duo but not the single one. The duo is gorgeous. The single is chalky and needed three layers to have a light color.

I have not tried the Pantone Color but I did get the Prisma Color today and I really really like it. It is only 15.00 per color and it is made in Italy. I was looking at the Dior and the make up artist at Sephora made me try their brand. I was shocked because it was really good. You can use it either wet or dry. It really went on the smoothest of any eye color I have ever used.

with 15% off it came to about 13.00. Color me SURPRISED! I never ever even look at the sephora brand. It used to be made in China but the salesperson told me that they do not do that anymore. It is worth a try. It is the one that looks like a wave. You are better off going to the store b/c they do not have all the colors on line I just checked.

I would like to try this could you let me know how it works? I have used Nioxin before but IMHO the shampoo did nothing. I have been taking hair, skin, nails vitamins that I got at Costco and my hair seems to be really smooth etc.

SKIN not so much. That darn Clarisonic! I have rosacea(sp?) and unfortunately I used it before I realized that it says if you have this condition you should not use it. Going to the dermatologist on Tue. Guess he will put me back on Metro Gel.

Hi Bella the Ball! I'm back from the cruise. I used the scalp shield before drying my hair on one of the Castaway Cay days, and I did not get sunburned on my head or part. It was a brilliantly sunny day. Sooo....I guess I can say it worked. I also sprayed it on my part area on dry hair one day we were at Disney, and it definitely made me look greasy. Hope that helps.

See this eyeshadow:

"Love Affair"

If you see it, buy it. It's PHEfreakingNOMENAL. Love it! I got it at the hair show. I wish I had gotten 2 (for only $8!!!) It's some of the best colors I've ever owned.

ACK!!! I didn't realize I'm almost out of foundation and need to place an order with Everyday Minerals. Are there any discount codes - the only thing on the website is 25% off 3 large items. I looked back thru my past orders and they show a discount but not the code used

OR - is there another site/brand I need to be considering these days ? I like the mineral foundation and prefer EM to Bare Escentuals.

thanks!!

I have been using the retinol anti-wrinkle facial serum from Sally Beauty Supply. Lovin' this product, seems to be making my face nice and soft, hopefully those tiny lines will go away

Thanks for telling us on this board about this product!

Well...5 Sephora hauls later I'm broke. I finally found my perfect lipstick that I've been searching for all of my life. Well not all 28 years but 6 or 7 at least. It may have cost $48 but it is SO worth it! Also, the Yves Saint Laurent glossy stains are to die for!

 

[leith78]

Has anyone ever used the Glo teeth whitening system that Sephora carries? Seems pricey, but if it doesn't cause sensitivity, that's a huge plus for me. Just curious if anyone can provide feedback for it.

Okay you are officially worse than me. I only did 2 Sephora runs and I really controlled myself.

L'oreal Tan Towels. Anyone use them. I used them yesterday and they are not bad. They do not scream fake tan. I only use them on my legs so here is my question.....can they be cut in half so that I can get double the product. The towel is huge and meant for your whole body. I know that somewhere on the tan things it says something about metal so I was unsure. I wanted to cut them and put them in a zip lock bag. I am going to try it anyway but just wondered before I did if anyone had tried this.

Check out QVC or HSN they sell this also and since you cannot use the Sephora 15% off anymore, you might get a better deal meaning more product or add on's since you will be paying full price anyway.

I thought this may be of interest to those who use Sephora e-gift cards.

I had purchased some items online using Sephora e-gift cards, and didn't really like them so I went to my local Sephora store to return them. The cashier gave me back the refund on a general gift card, one that can be used in stores or online!

Just figured that since I used e-cards, that my refund would be on an e-card. (And e-cards can only be used online.) So I was pleasantly surprised that I got a regular gift card...I even confirmed with the cashier that the card could be used in stores and she said yes.

So the $70 in e-cards that I got from Viggle, I can now use in my local Sephora store.

Well all in all I have now made 6 Sephora hauls, 3 Dior hauls, 1 MAC haul, and I'm plotting a Chanel haul when the summer collection comes out. I need to STOP!

i bought the loreal tan towels but have never used them.. thanks for the review! i also bought sephora brand spray tannner this week, it will come in the mail soon, i will post review. I usually use the loreal spray tanner on my neck/chest arms for a little color and like it, but always like to try new things as well. I bought a nars eyeshadow and lipgloss off sephora.com cant wait till they come! and thanks disnee25 for the tip on the viggle e gift cards and using more than 4 in an order, i called to complete my order and he applied them and finished it for me, very easy!!

I tried the Olay Pro-X but wasn't impressed. Used it for a few months but don't see much of a difference. My main concern is reducing pores and evening out my skintone which is pretty red around my cheeks and nose. I'm looking into the Clarisonic and I see the Mia on Amazon for $105. Is that pretty much the cheapest I'll find it? Also, how often do you replace the brush and do you use their cleanser?

 

[leith78]

I saw that Urban Decay is featured on Hautelook today. Not too much is listed, but they do have their eyeshadow primer.
