Sephora Active Codes- Codes only thread - Codes, Coupons

[SaraP]

Okay so I'm going to place 2 orders to day to use both codes:

I'll use the viblip on my rouge account for a rollerball sampler and try the  MakeupForever HD foundation and the freshfb on my bi account.

Anyone have a sugguestion on which one of these?

 or 

Thanks!!

  Any opinions on the Tarte Maracuja vs. the Josie Maran Argan Oil that is still available through MERRYMINI? I was originally going to go with the Argan oil and then someone mentioned the Maracuja also being available. Meanwhile, I'm sitting on a cart wanting to use the $30 giftcard my mom gave me for my birthday and debating the whole do I spend the extra to get free shipping or eat the cost of the tax and shipping. Hrrrmm....

I've used both and I like the Maracuja better.  The Sephora SA explained their differences and you can decide based on your needs: Maracuja:  Lighter oil, good for eveniing out skin tone and boosts radiance - high vitamin C content. Argan Oil:  Heavier oil, good for dry skin, especially for evening (sleep) in cold climate where air is dry - high vitamin E content.  

I also use both the Josie Maran Argan Oil and the Tarte Maracuja Oil. I like both of them but personally like the Josie Maran the most. The description [@]FormosaHoney[/@] gave is probably why; my skin is pretty dry so I use these oils in the evening before going to bed. Both oils do a great job but the Josie Maran is a little heavier which is great for my dry skin.

Are you magic?  'Cuz I just ordered that Tokyo Milk perfume last night! Thanks for the awesome tip. 

Lol...if I were...my packing for my move would already be done. Did you get to try the combo yet?

Ohhhh, doing that right now before I go to bed...   Just did it!         :inlove3: MG!

Yay! Glad you liked it!

Not sure if this has been posted... Code MWUAH for a choice of Shiseido Laquer Gloss mini or Buxom Lipstick mini.

I got the Tarte Maracuja oil in my VICE2 promo- and I looooved it.  Still love it.  I alternate using the Caudalie Divine Oil and the Tarte on nights I shower!

Do you use both on your face? I have both but for some reason, never thought to put the divine oil on my face!

I love the tarte. The Josie would not go into my face it would just stay on top, I hated it but I know other people had the same problem in reverse.

I haven't tried the regular Josie but the light Josie seems nice to me! Have you tried that/compared it to the Tarte?

Sure!  The Maracuja oil seriously lightened some sage spots, the freckles are still intact just those medium-brown tiny patches of pigamentation have faded.

Do you do your moisturizer first or the oil first to get that effect? I started with oil first and the moisturizer. But my boyfriend pointed out maybe I should use the fancy anti-aging lotion first so that stuff actually gets to my skin. I made the switch and have loved it so far.

I do the oil first.  The Sephora SA said to think of it as a serum and to apply that first.  I think their logic was that the oil penetrates all the fine lines easier because it's liquid and that acutally in turn helps the creams to be more effective.  

Get this... that the more liquidy oil (or serums) helps draw or channel the face cream deeper into the fine lines that the cream alone otherwise might just sit on top of.  I was like... wild, but it totally made sense.

But you know, I'd do what works for you.  Maybe do it cream first oil second for a week and then switch it around and compare the results... or... do one on left side and one on right side for a week and see how you feel.  Hmmm...  I might do that!

I second the Maracuja oil. I purchased the gift of giving set and there was a small bottle in there. I'm an oil slick and never thought I EVER use an oil product, but this is awesome! I use it occasionally at night when I've over done something like a peel or exfoliation and it soaks right in leaving me very soft in the morning. Also a little goes a very long way, 2 small drops covers my face and neck. 

*I use it under my Fresh face cream

The men's cologne certificate offered Uomo but they no longer sell it and the cast member felt awful. She let my husband pick whatever cologne he liked, no matter the price.

I got to asking her about the Rosabotanica perk and how I didn't have enough points but that I was looking to buy one on eBay or Poshmark. And she pulled me aside at an empty cash register and told me to wait and that she'd be right back. So she scans my scent certificate and starts wrapping my items to put them in the bag and you'll never believe what she did next.... She pulled out the mini Rosabotanica/scarf perk (the last one they had) and stuffs it into my bag!!!! She said that the perfume smelled amazing on me and that it suited me and she gave it to me for free! I almost cried!

Guys, magic can happen in a real Sephora!

Mine just arrived yesterday.  I was actually pretty disappointed with the scarf.  Not sure why, but in person I just didn't care for it at all.  Oh well, I am going to make my first trade list this weekend.  Guess it gives me something not many other people with have on their list

 

[thinkpink7l7]

Your math is dead on.  I've started buying the smaller travel spray first.  If I use it up, then I go back and buy the larger one.  The smaller ones help me decide if I really like the scent.  If it's a keeper, I then take the plunge on the bigger one.  I did that with Cherry in the Air last summer.  Buying the big one definitely makes $ sense and 3x points right now!

I've never owned a full sized perfume in my life! But I constantly beg my friends for the cherry in the air samples because I love it! Then I realized its a limited edition & of course sephora only has it in the travel spray. I was just about to buy a few of those to have on hand, & a present appears today from a wonderful friend of mine in CA for Valentines Day. She knew my hubs is gone right now & that I'm alone with my 6 kiddos for Valentines so she said she thought this might cheer me up. Holy huge size of Cherry in the Air! My first full size perfume. I'm ecstatic! Some fragrances are just worth the whole shebang!

Nice friend you've got!  That is a wonderful gift.  I've been spraying it on myself the past 2 weeks because it smells like spring and I've had ENOUGH of the snow.  

All this talk about cherry in the air and 3x fragrances makes me want to but the travel spray from Sephora! But then my practical side says I don't need it and that it is a terrible idea because I haven't even smelled it before and most fragrances give me headaches. What do you all think??

My Cartier Rouge perk arrived today, I was pretty impressed with it.

The presentation is really great!

I love it & I dislike most perfumes. It's light, fresh, & smells yummy to me. It doesn't last as long as some perfumes I've tried, but I don't mind it. I love the smell too much to care. I'm addicted!

I really like Cherry in the Air. It reminds me of black cherries, which I love the smell of.

I agree with this assessment! I bought Cherry in the Air last month and was really in to it. I loved it, and still do, but... I was in Sephora chatting with one of the sales girls who said many people told her it smells like cough medicine. Ever since then that's all I can think of when I apply it /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> It is a pretty fragrance though.

Thanks! I decided to wait until the 15% off promotion. I'd rather save money than get extra points. And this way I can test at Sephora!

I went to my local SiJCP today and they had an Urban Decay GWP. With any UD purchase they were giving out a full size UD nail polish in Vice. With a purchase of $60 they were giving away a bag full of samples (some deluxe) plus the nail polish.

 

[skylola123]

Hey ladies any new promo codes for Sephora, I am debating whether to get the Urban Decay Naked 3!!!!!! You ladies don't know how many times I have almost hit that ORDER button. 

But I keep thinking what if there is an awesome promo code out there lol...
