Holiday Sets: When are they revealed?

[turntrekgodhead]

So excited for all the new sets! Bite especially. I want the Best Bite set and maybe one or two of the lipstick duos (would have gotten the magenta/purple one ages ago, but I saw it in-store and the packaging seemed really not-sturdy...).

Some new Bite Beauty minis/duos: http://www.sephora.com/mix-n-mingle-lip-minis-P390694?skuId=1628247&om_mmc=oth-bt-richlinks-2013

Oh my - I love Bite minis....

Hmmm....that Poppy/scarlet and the Augbergine  look amazing!  I have loved everything Bite I have so far but for me mini's are the way to go for me.

I need you all to keep posting about your holiday purchases and pictures and whatnot. I'm living vicariously through all of you right now as I'm pretty certain that effective Oct 31st I'll be out of a job. :scared: Who needs to eat?! Electricity is overrated! i just want to buy things!

I'm so sorry!! I swear I keep hearing how unemployment is going down and the economy is so much better....but I know at least 5 people that have either been laid off or are facing a lay off. Ugh!

 

[BSquared]

Sorry for 2 in a row....but why do I never get ulta emails!?!? I was getting nothing, I complained, they started showing up....now I haven't gotten one in a month. I want my damn coupon!

Someone convince me that I don't need the Tarte Pigment of Imagination set!

 

[Kelli]

So, I am pretty happy with my Ulta purchase. I was able to get 2 holiday items plus a bunch of other stuff I wanted for only a tiny bit more than the sets I was looking at from Sephora. (I think with tax my total was around $64)

I won't mention it all in this thread, but the holiday items I ended up choosing were Benefit's Cheeky Sweet Spot and bareMineral's Magnificent Seven (is that even holiday? lol there are so many sets I have no clue haha).

I'm happy I got that ulta 20% off, since searching there made me remember the Cheeky Sweet Spot and how much I really wanted to get that or some other blush items, and I think in the end I'll be just as happy (or happier!) with 8 items I ended up getting (PLUS the 15 pc sample set!!!) than if I would have just gotten the TF or Tarte sets and nothing else for a similar price.

 

[CurlyTails]

I think I need some Tarte blushes in my life. But no buy. But pretty holiday sets.

The struggle is real my friends.

 

[Brandy Roberts]

Quick question- when you say you got Tarte Exposed with the Away Oui Go set, what do you mean? Did you just buy it at the same time, or did you get it as a gwp or what?

Sorry - I meant I got it at the same time.  I did get 2 extra lipsurgences (full size) and a bag of deluxe samples that Tarte threw in for me, but I also purchased Exposed that same weekend.  

 

[Kimb3rly]

I love you ladies!!!  :hugs3:    Thank you for all of your kind words it really does mean a ton to me.

I received an Ulta code for 20% off today, so if you want/need one let me know and I'll send it your way.

I agree, the Lorac Mega Pro Palette is more on the warmer side /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Highlight Shade - Cream

Transition Shade - Fawn

Crease Shade- Camel

Deepen Crease Shade - Sepia

Middle of Lid Shade - Blush

All Over the Lid Shade - Merlot

So far so good.. The palette is so well worth the price tag of $59!

Gorgeous eye look! I initially wanted Vice3 but after seeing the swatches for this palette I fell in love. I got it from Amazon but they wouldnt ship to my address APO address, I ended up paying an extra $20 to have it shipped to my German address. This will be my first time trying Lorac shadows any recommendations on what primer to use?

ETA: Meant to ask what color lipstick you are wearing its such a pretty shade.

[turntrekgodhead]

These are new too, just don't know if they've been mentioned here. Anyone want?

I like this one!!!

That Estee set is so cute!  I already have a full size Desirable color, but a mini would be nice for my purse.  I think I'll have to pick this set up soon! 

 

[saku]

finally purchased the vice3 palette from sephora with an f&f code! so i already purchased the 2 things that i truly want among the holiday releases -- the vice3 and the hourglass blush palette. i'm still $60 away from rouge, so i might get another holiday set. but there's nothing else i'm dying to get - maybe the tarte blush set, but i don't like that ribbon overlay thingy with the purple design. i much rather just have just the gold packaging. haha, i know this probably sounds silly. lol

So I guess I have a few more Columbus Day Holiday shopping confessions...wow.  Sometimes I don't know what I order until I sit down and write it all out.  Hmmm....alright starting just as soon as I use one (or maybe 2?) 20% off everything at Ulta coupons (ok, almost everything), I am putting myself on a no-buy, no rent, no-renew!!  until Black Friday.  

So aside from what I already mentioned, I don't have pics of my Ulta orders (in the mail), and ok there are a couple 7 Sephora boxes coming too.  And I'm not proud, but every other order is either $1 or $5, with a 150 point promo code!   :blush:

Also I went into my first Lush store!  Different...I picked up a slab of citrus bubble bath, a melted penguin of I think also bubble bath, and a ball of bath fizz (I think).  I am apparently going to have skin as smooth as buttah.  They gave me a body wash sample too - honey or orangey, I can't remember now.  I was overwhelmed with fragrance and sooooooo wanted to take one of those mushrooms home!  Can't wait to try!

Another first, I went into a Kiehl's store.  This was my last stop, and I was seriously on borrowed time and getting anxious, so I was just going to try again later, but the nice kid working there wanted to give me samples before I left.  Wow!  He gave me the midnight recovery oil, line-reducing concentrate (powerful-strength) and creme de corps all over body moisturizer! I wanted to try the body scrub so grabbed a small one for $11 and I LOVE IT!  

Anyway, learning a bit about these brands has been on my to-do-list for a while but I finally had the time/patience/energy/blah blah blah to get it done this weekend. :smilehappyyes:

And I picked up the cutest dressy pumps for $6 at JCPenney!  I have their credit card, so with my coupons from my rewards (2 - $10 off coupons), the 20% off for paying with my card, and the $10 off discount coupon I just received from SiJCP (wink wink), They were $5 and change!
 
I almost forgot my Macy's large palette for eyes, lips and cheeks~LOVE IT!  And the two cute little palettes from Ulta - One Esssence and one Stila.

OMG, what a great haul, I'm so jealous /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Enjoy all your new stuff! Bon Voyage is calling my name, ehh...

Someone convince me that I don't need the Tarte Pigment of Imagination set!

I got it last week and while the highlighter is very pretty, the blush is quite light.  I've got medium warm skin and it barely shows up.  I really have to pack it on to get any color.  But someone posted some swatches a couple pages back and it looked gorgeous on her!

Nordstrom has (had?) some of the Dior 5 Couleurs eyeshadow palettes "price matched" 10% off, plus 9% ebates so I pulled the trigger and got the Holiday palette in 046 Golden Reflection. It looks like its had a TON of shimmer and sparkle, so I am very excited. The other holiday palette, 756 Golden Shock is included as well, if anyone is interested, they are buried away with the permanent colors in the 5 Couleurs line. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Ebates promo has ended, though - I think that was a one day special. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I usually use Urban Decay's Primer Potion but to be honest, any primer would work! I'm unsure what lipstick shade I'm wearing since this was a while back /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
