Yea! We all are now VIB! Nice hauls ladies, looks awesome!


I have yet to make VIB status. What exactly do I need to do?

 

[lovepink]

@MissTrix to get VIB you have to spend $350 at Sephora between January and December. If you are a beauty insider it tracks your spending and you can log into your account on sephora.com and check how close you are! Hope that helps!

Ever get hit with a wave of nostalgia for a product that used to be a HG to you?

Yeah... so... I ordered a bunch of Glimmersticks from Avon. Most of them were on sale for less than $2, one was $3, and one was full price ($7). I lived in my blue & copper Glimmersticks back when they first came out. I literally learned "line control" by using Glimmersticks. They went on so incredibly smooth! I'm seriously hoping the formula didn't change too much over the years. 

I also ordered the Julep Miami mystery box today. I really need to work on my impulse control.

I'm thinking of ordering the Julep Miami box. I don't NEED anymore nail polishes though!

The glimmersticks are still amazing.  I've been buying them for years and haven't noticed any change in formula.  The waterproof ones are my HG.

I received a perfume stick from Perfumies in a previous bb5 box.

I NEVER wear perfume due to a sensitivity to artificial fragrances.

I was so happy to finally find a perfume that didn't give me a headache.

From their website:

All natural base.  Paraben-free.  No preservatives.  Never tested on animals.  Ingredients: coconut oil, beeswax, secret sauce (fragrance)   This my latest purchase:

sex on the peach: a very mild peach scent (this is my 2nd stick in this scent)

snow bunny: minty vanilla

honeybunch: reminds me of sugar cookies

I just bought 20 tubes of milani lipstick. The dollar tree had them there and I went nuts!!! These will be great stocking stuffers for Christmas.

 

[kawaiiwoofs]

I went to a Sephora inside JC penny for the first time. It was small, of course, but they had these loaded sale sections! The MUFE is a lip kit with a red lip liner and a red gloss thing. It caught my eye because I love MUFE and I kinda hoped I could get a full size lipstick. Haha of course not! The SA said that that's what they all thought too and they called dibs on kits.... I noticed that names were marked into each of the boxes. Merp. I got two Illamasqua polishes for $4 each - rampage and bacterium. I don't think I like them??? I'm not sure yet. They had a KvD perfume on sale for $12. Poetica I think it's called? I might go back and buy it tomorrow.

I walked in to Ulta to get a $20 Stila palette... 

I left there with Naked 2, 4 Ulta shadows in Cherry Bomb, Havana Nights, Complicated, and Organza, and 3 Ulta polishes in Ginger Peach, Goddess, and Femme Fatale. In my defense, the Ulta shadows were on sale for $4 each, 2 of the polishes were free gwp's and the other was only $.99, AND I used 300 points for $9 off for a total of $60!

Bonus! My Z-Palette is full now!

Oooooooo, dat's purdy

on a secondary note...yeah...remember how I showed the picture with all the julep bottles I ordered this month? and I said I WOULDN'T ORDER ANY MORE...this was ENOUGH, right? Reminder pic -



So TODAY, my hubby walks in the door with a box and says: "Hey baby, how are you? Oh here, this was in the mailbox. I thought you got your Julep stuff already?"

I was like....

uhhhhhh, I did

Then I opened it....that's when I recalled the buy 1 get 1 free they had a week ago or so.

Oh yeah, I bought Petra and got Zoe free....hehehe.....::bites nails:: He just smiled cause he saw me sweatin' and said: "Hm....I like Petra, you should wear it." and does this:

.....WHEW LOL Ok seriously, there should be NO MORE coming lol

Have you tried perfume oils, like Villainess, Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab, and Arcana? I used to be a no-perfume person due to headaches and queasiness until I discovered their stuff, and I have since realized my issues are synthetic ingredients. BPAL in particular is cruelty-free (I'm not sure about the other lines), so they do synthesize things like civet and musks, but they do so with natural vegetable-based stuff. I used to have zero perfumes, and now I have dozens if not hundreds of their bottles now (and I definitely have hundreds of decants!).

I'm a Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab convert, love them.  In fact, moseying on over there now to see what's up....

Eat Me, White Rabbit and How Doth the Little Crocodile are three from the Mad Tea Party collection that I really like.

Man, I miss March Hare. And Eat Me was somewhat ruined for me when I saw _Cloverfield_. So much motion sickness. I'm actually planning an order today once my WiFi comes back up. I need Sumatran Red Patchouli before its limited-edition run ends, and it's time for a summery imp pack. It will probably contain Urd, Tamora, Vixen, and three others yet to be determined.

I love muscadines, so Urd sounds interesting!

Just showed some restraint and bought the Ariel palette online from Sephora and nothing else! I am proud of myself!

After visiting several Meijer stores in my area the only Color Club holos I could snag for the 75% sale were Blue Heaven and Harp On It. Plan on trying them out this week and if I like them hunt down a cheap place online to order them. Or cross my fingers they pop up at my local Burlington Coat.
