I love that movie, it is my favorite Christmas movie ever! I watch it every single year sometimes twice lol

I would feel so sad if I didn't get a reaction/reveal from my SS!

OMG! That's crazy! But, in the cutest way ever!!! It's like a Kentucky Derby
for doxies! They should wear little hats! That would be
Ridiculously precious!

You mean cute like this:

I love the one that's smiling  I couldn't help but laugh when  I saw it! He definitely looks like he enjoys life. My brother has a chiweenie and I am in love with how adorable that dog is.

@KellyKaye  Ignore my post.  I was talking about Face Atelier.  You did just give me a new reason to shop at Sephora since I've never tried Atelier Cologne.  Enabler...

Bahahahahaaaa! Oh girl, I am a total enabler! I take pride in it.

I just got that sample yesterday and I absolutely love it!!

I purchased the mini set of Orange Sanguine and the Vanilla online. Wow!!! I just didn't know if they were sold in the stores. I'm going to call SiJCP and see if they have it too since that one is much closer.

I agree completely! I think it would break my heart if I tried to make her gift just absolutely perfect, so she'd open it and let out a gasp! And then to not ever know how she felt about it or anything.... would totally be a buzz kill. might even make me cry! haha

 

[Animezing]

Yes I agree, I hope everyone posts! I also hope everyone gets their gifts, I've seen in previous years that some people never got a gift =/ That would be a horrible let down.

That's horrible! I hope the people who didn't send anything got banned. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong but I feel like it's rude not to post a pic & description of the gifts received. Members on here took time, care, & hard-earned money to put these gifts together. A thank you & pic are definitely in order & should be part of the rules.

If this happened, I would definitely cry. I want to make my SS so happy and I want her to see the effort that went into it. I really hope that no one flakes on their SS that would make me so sad and furious for that girl. Ughhhh, talking about this is giving me anxiety.

 

[SOSRedAlertSOS]

It smells like heaven. Not even kidding. The scents are so direct and perfectly formulated to embrace the notes. If you are on the fence, don't take another second to hesitate.

OT moment, but the Naked 3 palette is for sale. I'm trying to buy it through luvocracy since I have a 10$ credit for signing up but no one has it up lol. I put it up on the site and I'm waiting for it to verify the price.

I couldn't imagine someone doing that. To me that's so disrespectful and makes me sad to think of someone not receiving something. If you aren't able to send a gift, don't sign up :/

 

[nicepenguins]

I have decided that because my gifts are normal good ones that a normal person would like (good brands, goes with the person's profile, etc) that if the person is truly unhappy in spite of me trying hard I will try to accept it and say "the holidays are a difficult time for people in terms of time and emotions and it may not be about me or my present."   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Edit: I say "good brands" not out of snobbery but because one of my ss's seems to like very high end brands.

 

[yousoldtheworld]

I honestly can't imagine NOT liking a SS gift! One, it's beauty products...two, it's someone thinking of you and trying to put something together and make you happy!

I really think the only way I'd be unhappy with an SS gift is if the gift was only thing things on my (very short) do not want list...because then it would feel almost passive aggressive, lol. "I do not like this girl. I'm going to buy everything she hates! HA!!"

 

[dotybird]

I just finished making a gift for my SS (even though I am in the office and *should* be working!)  I hope she likes it.  I am also including a piece of jewelry I made.  I can't wait to wrap everything up and send it to her!

 

[Tiffany27la]

My husband is good.  He will ask me,"so what happened on your board today?"

Awww... He's a keeper! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I don't know what happened but I would hope they would be or at least not be able to ever do another SS again! *Crosses fingers that everyone gets their presents* =]

 

[SOSRedAlertSOS]

On a more positive note, I am big enough to admit that I have received at least one Sephora package for the past 4 days. Hahaha. My SS, you are a spoiled and lovely girl.
