Someone talk to me like I'm three and explain exactly what to do?? haha :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'd like to know too :/

 
I ended up adding a $6 Smith's Minted Rose lip salve, which I love. The $1 Sephora body wash caps and $4 Sephora Express Cleansing Wipes are also good ways to round out an order. 

Thanks to whoever pointed out that you could select all 3 items with the VIBLUXE code. I was so excited about mini lipstick that I didn't realize you could pick more than one. Good thing you guys got my back...

 I haven't tried it, but I imagine that you would go to eBates and click on the link for Sephora like you normally would. This creates a ticket in the eBates system for a Sephora order even if you don't check out.

Then later, go through the "Where's my cash back?" process, select this ticket number, and copy over the email confirmation you got from the order. Some have said that their purchase have shown up automatically even though they didn't check out the second time, so you might just want to look at your Cash Pending and see if you lucked out.

I love hearing ramblings!!

Carven is newly available at Nordstrom, so once you run out, it will be possible to repurchase. I seriously considered getting the Carven perk I'm sad it won't be available anymore. Maybe it is exclusive to Nordstrom now?? I'd like to try to get a sample.

I'm not a fan of NARS orgasm blush, but I did get the illuminator and I havent tried it yet, but now I am excited to test it out.

I had bought Sex Appeal a few months ago and returned it...it wasn't dark enough for a blush and it wasn't light enough for a highlighter. I was disappointed, but hopefully it will work for you!! I'm obsessed with NARS! I really like the whole Final Cut collection that was at Nordstrom this spring, it was still in stock a week or two ago.

I spent waaay too much time debating between the ambient lighting blush in dim infusion vs. nars sex appeal.  I liked swatches online of both, but I was really wanting no sparkle or shimmer at all.  Just a nice barely there peach color.  I figure, it is too light for a blush, I could always use it as a face brightener like I do with my nars nico.

I really liked that the orgasm illuminator gave just a hint of color, nothing drastic.  Enough to know you've got a glow.  The blush is too coral, and I can't tell which direction--pink or orange, I don't know..just doesn't work on yellow skin tones, and too shimmery.  I hope you end up liking your illuminator too! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

THANK YOU for the info on the Carven at Nordstrom!  I was worried when I read reviews on the perfume, because so many said it was "old lady" bad smelling.  I don't get that at all.  I like how I can't distinguish a particular smell in it, especially once it wears down.  It gets really light and sweet-musky, and the only description I can think of is it just smells good.. and sexy-but not trashy.  I don't like getting compliments about a fragrance I'm wearing when they say, "nice perfume"... I like when it is subtle enough that people say "you smell good".  If that makes any sense.

I'm glad I didn't drop the money of full sizes of the Nirvana fragrances after all... The new Cartier sun one recently sampled from Sephora, and this Carven are going to find their way into my stash next month!

Yep, this!

I've had a few purchases where I forgot to go through, opened a tracking ticket, then logged out.  My purchases always showed up on their own after all when doing this.

Even if you do go through them to begin with, it can get lost in the shuffle and you have to go track where's my cash back option too.

So go open a tracking ticket for your purchase, then give it about a week after you've been charged for the order.  If you don't see anything, go through the where's my cash back? option, and you'll still get your cash back.

http://www.ladymeag.com/2014/01/foundation-swatches.html
Thanks so much for linking to my post! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Finding a match for very pale, neutral skin is a PITA and it's really upsetting that matches seem to always get discontinued. I'm very heartened by slinka's news that Kat is pushing for the shade to return. I hope it happens - it would be great to have more than one option! (By the way, I have face-test posts for three of those foundations: Koh Gen Do, Chantecaille, and Jane Iredale. Jane Iredale won by a landslide.) 

(Sorry, I had to come join when my tracker told me that a significant portion of my day's traffic had come from makeuptalk - I'll go find the intro board ASAP. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> )

  Funny thing:  I know her via another forum, and I was getting ready to reach out to her to see what she was doing about this.  In fact, she was the first person I thought about when I saw that the shade was being DC'd.

 

*waves* Nice to see familiar faces! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Instead of filling up the other board with threads about my woes, I finally plunked it down in a blog. Now the world can either find it or ignore it. :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

BLISSLOVE gets you 3 full sized Bliss body butters for $30
I wish that was their body washes instead.   I did stock up over black friday, but I love their BW's.

this might be a stretch, but would you say someone who likes the nirvana is likely to like carven?  i've been wanting to get the carven perk purely bc i LOVE mini perfume bottles, but have no idea if i'll like it or not (and i ask bc i'm not a nirvana fan... i like lighter, sweeter scents more)

oil blotters are $5 aren't they? or you could get those awesome cotton pads + a shower gel cap. there's also soap & glory minis (scrub and body butter) for $5

 Soap & Glory Hand Food is $5 and it's awesome. Seriously.

@latinafeminista soap & glory products have a very strong smell! if possible, it would be so much better to sniff it in person. i hated its smell! i never throw away any beauty thing that's not completely empty, but i threw my naked body butter sample away. it smelled so strong and blehcck to me!!!!

edit: also, if you read reviews on sephora, people either loved it or hated it!

People have remarked that the Hand Food has a scent very similar to Miss Dior.  I have both and I tend to agree.  It is a strong scent as Saku mention.  I like the scent very much so to me it's delightful!  I keep a tube of it on my desk and it's a nice pick-me-up which lingers in the air as I work.

I love the scent too -- I hadn't thought to mention it, but yeah, the scent is strong-ish. It reminds me a lot of tea, both green and 'ordinary' sorts.

Who wouldn't want them all. Right?!

Thanks all for the feedback on the Soap and Glory.  I got a sample of the body butter and adored it so I don't think I'll have an issue with the smell.  I ordered the body polish this time around so we'll see how that works out! I was thisclose to ordering the hand cream but I have SO many I couldn't justify getting another 

 
Also, for anyone curious - I made an order last night with the Cyber Monday bag code SUSPENSE and it went through. We'll see it if actually worked soon enough, but it showed up on my order summary email with it on the list.

I'd say if you like Nirvana White, you will probably like Carven.  Carven is more complex and sophisticated a scent compared to Nirvana though, and it is not as strong-in your face.

Carven IS lighter and sweeter than the Nirvanas, without vanilla, and not nearly as strong smelling.  But it has some sweeter musk scent lingering after the top notes fade away.

I hope that helps some.

You totally made me want to have that Carven fragrance :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
