I only have two palettes, but in the garden is one of them.  The colors are so soft and lovely; very wearable.  I got it during Chic week with a light blue eyeliner and love them together.

 
I tried to be a good girl and just buy things we needed with my gift card.  I got the big bottle of Fresh Soy cleanser -- DH and I both use it in the morning.  But then I decided to get myself a little something fun and picked up JinSoon polish in Jasper.  So pretty, and it's my first JinSoon.  Hope it lives up to the hype!

 
Does anyone know where Naked 3 will "be" on the site? As in, does it have an official item # yet, should I stay on the main page, main UD page, or keep refreshing my search for "Naked 3" tonight? I've never tried this before. I keep missing it when it's on UD.com

Wow, good catch.  They must have just changed that today, I removed it from my "loves" a few hours ago and it was at the $20 price.  Glad I picked it up yesterday!!

@jennm149 I didn't even think about the implementation of a new system right before the busiest shopping season. But as a longtime Director of QA for several Software companies I have no difficulty imagining the rollout of a new system without training CSR's to look for the exceptions to the rule.

@slinka You were posting almost as late as I was, Vampyre? Yes, I agree that this debacle could've been handled better,. Around page 175 on this thread someone called then emailed about the small order shipping policy for clarification and posted the response from Sephora. A great post that should've calmed things down. I called the Rouge line once I saw the stories building steam because I really get annoyed by the Argumentum ad populum that seems to take over interesting threads. The post by someone whose order wasn't cancelled but who posted that she feared it would be was the moment when the Rouge Purge Went from sublime to just ridiculous.

So getting back to all things shopping at Sephora - I have to ask if anyone else having UPS issues? 2 of 4 Sephora orders and 1 of 3 Amazon orders I placed were delivered at 830ish by 2 UPS guys in a UHaul truck who spent the day having to sort through the piles of boxes that were thrown around the truck everytime they took a turn. Half the stuff I was expecting wasn't on the truck but showed up as "Out for Delivery" until 6 this morning when the status changed to "Rescheduled".
I had one of my three Sephora boxes get rescheduled, when they were all supposed to arrive the same day. It got "left in a UPS facility" and was delivered the next day.

Anyone bought the Caviar Alterna set for $10 on BF?

My sister (even though I told her NOT to buy from Sephora) did. She received them today and when she opened them, guess what? EACH of the three bottles in BOTH sets have a sticker on the bar code that reads "TESTER. NOT FOR RESALE."

Did this happen to anyone? If you haven't checked your sets, please do!!!!!

My sis is UBER upset........as the sets are now sold out and she wanted to gift one of them to her BFF......

Well, I told her not to shop at Sephora...she should've listened to me....LOL......

She's SO glad she opened them to take a look at them or it would've been SO embarrassing to give a tester as a gift!!!

Sure it is a free country with free economy and retailers can sell samples if they want and so can eBayers...  but a flurishing member of the industry's oligopoly putting a price tag on testers?  Wow nelly!  It's a total double standard.

I would never give some oneone a gift that is marked testers, not for sale.  I'd hand it to them casually over coffee and say, hey I got this for you to try out.  But to pay for gift that is marked as such well....  that's just so very...

As FrostKitty has indicated, said company's system is set to tolerate a certain level of what they deem to be 'game playing' or 'undesireable behavior' in my verbiage.  In the same vain, Sephora's just tipped my 'flagging' mechanism.

Yeah, as OP stated many thousands of posts back, I vote with my dollars.  I gotta say 'Phora you are skating on thin ice there.

 
Got my BF order last night. The shave sets are nice, hubby will love his stocking! I got the Alterna for me, and the living proof too. But I couldn't resist the MUFE sets. My first MUFE purchase and I'm hooked! The enhanced eye one is so pretty! As of today it will be my main work look.

One of my two BF orders was delayed a day. On 12/2 the UPS status was "Due to local operation disruption, packages not unloaded from trailer, expect a one day business day delay." This was at a facility in Harrisburg PA.

 
I'd love to see anymore pics on the 'suspend' code :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />...  

It looks like the itty-bitty Sheseido is in all of them?  Mom loves them for travel so I'll probably spin that wheel just for the possibility of the face-cream with my $20 gc purchase.

BTW, there's an adorable Cherry In the Air spray for $20, I've also got eyes on the Spice Bomb for $50.  Yikes... can't possibly get both?

 
Oh god that is one of my FAVORITE colors. At least it seems like the Pantone universe stuff doesn't sell too well/ends up on the sale shelf so if I'm patient maybe I can get a good deal in a year lol. I mean, how long did the orange and emerald stuff make appearances in the sale section?! They were there for a while! Of course this color is a little more "wearable" though. hmmm....

The color of the year for 2014 is Radiant Orchid: http://theglossy.sephora.com/articles/785?icid2=HomePage_BotNav_ColoroftheYear_Orchid_12.04.13b_Image They would pick a color that I LOVE the year that I'm doing a no buy.

I don't think it's that it doesn't sell well, it's more like Sephora never discounts things unless if they're having a BF special or they're discontinuing the item. Since most of the makeup they sell never gets discontinued or stops stocking the item before it becomes discontinued, that's why we almost never see them on sale. But Sephora is the only retailer of the Pantone makeup collection (well obviously) so that's why we see the sales.

Plus most people don't even realise. I'd say a majority of people who shop and Sephora are the "I like it so I'm getting it" type.

What a gorgeous color!  Am going to stop by Sephora and test out the Gemma undee Stila after interview.   

 
So I called Sephora to get my $5 extra credit and I also asked about the N3 launch. She told me unfortunately they weren't allowed to tell us when it launches so we just have to check the site... XD ah well.

My guesses would be 12am EST midnight, or 6am PST (9am EST). But that's a bummer. Anyone ever track a launch on Sephora?

I got a couple foils, a Clinique men's skincare product, and a sephora mascara. I would have loved the Sheseido item, I kept the empty container for my husband in case he ever wanted to get me a present!
 
I decided to hold off on the UD Naked 3 Palette.  I just got the LM Artist's palette last month, so I think I'll just watch everyone else enjoy their Naked 3 palette for a while...until I crack.  For now, though, I think I can hold off for a while.

When I saw UsofJessAmerica post the promo code for the Dior lipstick or nail polish (Thanks!), I decided NOT to get the Formula X System, and to just get the Formula X Base coat and Top Coat (Only items I wanted or needed in the system anyway), and then nabbed another $5 Fresh gift card holder to reach $25 for promo to get the Dior polish.

So I used my gift card on a $26 purchase, not a $50 purchase, AND this is now the THIRD Fresh gift card holder I've bought.  

I'm living dangerously.  lmao.
