I was super surprised since I saw lots of foils in some other ones.
Here's a pic of all 5 samples.

The two faced foil is the biggest joke. I'll barely get one eyelid out of that thing...lol.
That's how I feel about the benefit porefessional card. You have to cover your whole face? Here have a smear of product.

I feel like I'm the last person in the world to have never tried Flowerbomb!
That's how I feel!

The price per oz according to Sephora's 1.7 oz would make this botle $54, so I think it's a good deal.  Not sure if it's because the bottle's plainer or they just realize that folks aren't into dropping that much $$.  It's no comparison to the deals on Fragrancenet but I know I won't get through a 1 oz before I want to move on to  something else!

I wish that there were more little sprays though...  I like to do 2 to the hair-layer, 1 down shirt and maybe one on the wrist but that usually causes an allergic reaction...  If I try to get the same sillage with a roll on, it'd take a while...

Get a tester and try FB!  It didn't make a too strong impression the first time I tried it but months later I kept remembering something I liked and just couldn't remember it then I rediscovered it but didn't get it because it's soooo darn expensive.

 
So, should I just keep refreshing my search for "Naked 3" tonight or is there any specific place on the site I should be looking for it?

Maybe a little of both. I've never bought from fragrancenet before but I do get their emails. I had been hoping they had some L'Artisan stuff but then I ended up buying that $60(?) set of 4 travel sized sprays on Sephora during the VIB sale with a gift card left over from my birthday. I usually just do 1 spray on my wrists and half a spray that I dab onto my neck. I don't do hair because I'm afraid it'll irritate my notoriously wimpy/cranky industrial lol. I found out the hard way that I need to do a really tiny amount of B&BW's Sweet Pea perfume though, I had awful headaches for over a week before I realised it was the perfume that was causing it! It's a shame because I love the smell and I don't have any problem with the body mist they have, but of course that's much less concentrated.

 
I still can't decide what to order with my $20 gift card! I got of what I needed (well, interpreted broadly!) during the 20% off sale, so the only thing I'm really craving now that I think I can justify adding to my collection is an eye palette, but I can't decide which one! 

I'm still crazy kicking myself for not pulling the trigger on the Laura Mercier Artist's Palette. I loved the mix of neutrals and purples. I'm open to suggestions on what to order instead! I'm not a huge Naked girl (I know, I know)--honestly, just too much glitter/shimmer for my taste. I'm considering the Lorac Pro but not sure I would use all the deep colors. Ahh, decisions!! 

 
I just opened my order with the suspense bag...

Mine had a

Philosophy time in a bottle serum

Lacoste cologne

Lamcome Transfer Free Foundation

Shiseido Bio Performance Revitalisante cream

Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey

I really like the almost lipstick...the color is actually really sheer and its very moisturizing!





Sorry for the sideways pictures

That is an awesome 'Suspense' bag!!

 
So jealous of your black honey!  Looks like the suspense bags have a possibility of some good stuff leftover from Blitz bags.  My order might be downstairs...I should go check.

I got my MUFE pencils in yesterday and I love them so far.  I just wish they weren't so similar, but I'm sure I'll use them up since they work better than a standard primer for me.

 
I'm jealous of those of you who got Black Honey and Sugar in your suspense bags.  Mine sucked.  I got the one with a Lancome mascara, a clinique men's scrub, the foil of the too faced.  The only thing I got that I'll use is the foil of Living Proof Prime.

If you haven't tried the Clinique Almost Lipstick you are going to love it!!   I am way bitter - my suspense bag was blah.   

 
I placed an order last night and used the promo code: BLITZ and it added the Radiance version. So, it's still available as if now. Unfortunately, if you are using more than one gift card, Sephora has removed the option to add a 2nd gift card-per the CSR. She said they did that because people were trying to use the $15 off reward codes twice or more in one transaction. I had the BI $15 off and a $25 shopkick gift card and had to call in the order....which was fine b/c I was able to get $40 off but I didn't get my mrrebates purchase though :/ Hope this helps anyone....

 
So, should I just keep refreshing my search for "Naked 3" tonight or is there any specific place on the site I should be looking for it?
. This was my plan, but then I realized I have to call Sephora CS to use my real gift card along with my VIB GC, and they will be closed at midnight EST (just an assumption about when it will go live, I don't have any inside info) So, I guess I won't bother. I presume it will sell out fast. I'll make some calls tomorrow to see what time / date my local Sephoras & SiJCP's are releasing it.
 
So I got a $15 GC for my "mistake" account that is BI (apparently I made one a few years ago that I forgot about), and my expected $20 GC on my main Rouge account.

I decided to roll the dice and use the smaller GC on the BI account, and bought the Atelier Cologne travel duo (orange/vanilla) and a pack of the Shiseido cotton pads, b-day gift pack, the buxom merrymini lipstick, and the 100 point primer or whatever that had acne control stuff in it, oh, and my 3 free samples.  I hope the cotton pads are really as good as people say they are, I'm tired of picking off little fuzzy pieces from the cheapo drugstore brands when I use my toner.

For my bigger GC I got Shiseido shimmer rouge lipstick in Iron Maiden, REN micro smooth facial cleanser, REN Rose purity cleansing balm, REN Bio-retinoid facial oil, the free Rouge compact mirror, and my 3 free samples.

I was "slightly" worried my first order with the $15 GC might not go through, since I knowingly didn't spend the $50... but I finally got a ship notification this afternoon, about an hour after the one I got for my main account.

I'm just REALLY glad the REN products I ordered were in stock!  They kept going in and out of stock the other week, and if I ran out of my travel bottles before then... I don't know what my face would have done, LOL.  I got the sample pack they had online for $18 the other week, and it has worked wonders on my freaked out skin.  Now I just need to get into the store this weekend to get samples of the REN rose serum and omega 3 serum.

And I am excited the new color for next year is the orchid purple!  I LOVE that color!  I probably wont bother trying the lipstick by Sephora, I always get reactions from their formulations, but I do like their shiny gloss, so I'll get the purple they featured on the ad page. 

What I'm really drooling over is a purple blush.  I'm debating between Anna Sui's Mystic Rose blush or Benefit's Lolli tint.  I need to see more swatches of the tint though, because I think it might show up as too pink rather than orchid purple. :-

Sadly, Lorac Pro is out of stock. I called earlier today and they JUST got a shipment on 12/1 and CS said next shipment would probably not be until January :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

 
I got my SUSPENSE bag yesterday & was VERY pleased!  

Buxom Mascara deluxe mini

UD Anti-aging Primer Potion deluxe mini

Shisheido Mini

Stila CC cream deluxe mini

Philosophy Time in a Bottle foil sample

Only one foil!  Tempted to buy a second -- I'd love to luck out with the Clinique Black Honey :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Oh noooo! You are right! I got the email that it was back in stock on November 27 and (apparently foolishly) assumed it would stay in stock through the holidays! Oof that makes my decision even harder.

I really should order the Pro from Ulta anyway--they have the better deal with $39 plus an extra eyeliner (in addition to the primer). If they run another good points promo before it runs out of stock I probably will. 

Now, back to scrolling through the Sephora site, trying to decide!

 
So here's my suspense bag:
400
They apparently counted the connected foils of Clinique acne products (pore solutiobs mask and liquid makeup) as one. I also got: Time in a Bottle serum (which I'm glad to try) Clean Original (0.03 oz) sample Clinique Men's face scrub deluxe Sephora full action mascara This has not been my week for mystery samples. On the plus side, I did get the 100 point Flora by Gucci mini with GC order yesterday. The original Flora was a favorite and I've used up that bottle, so I'm really looking forward to that. Good to hear these are such nice size samples.

Wow...  That is so hit-and-miss, I'd be so sad faced if I got that...  Rethinking gamble for the Sheseido now...  

Glad you got the Flora though, nice!

At work (SiJCP), we have a Lorac gondola. We haven't gotten Lorac items in a while, so I asked what was going on, and they told us since Kohl's took it over we will no longer carry Lorac. So not sure if it goes for online too, but we won't have any Lorac soon at my SiJCP.

I was actually surprised to see Lorac in stores. I remember them all being taken out of the sephora stores sometime earlier this year...
