Ugh, I need a new eye cream and I am not looking forward to shelling out the money for a good one. I just got through an entire Boscia one, but it was pretty unimpressive in terms of providing any additional benefits beyond simple hydration. Definitely not willing to spend more that $50 on something just for my eyes! I'll take recommendations from anyone!! I looked at the Boscia oil you're using...it comes as part of a kit I might pick up during Chic week. I love skin care kits!! I have just normal skin that behaves itself, so I don't have issues with changing up skincare. My main issue is dullness, particularly in winter, so changing it up is great for me!
My experience so far is that no eye cream is perfect (although I was pretty impressed yesterday with the Caudalie one so we will see after a few more days). I have found a night time eye gel which I'm very happy with though - Ole Henriksen's Ultimate Lift Eye Gel PM. It truly does "lift." I feel like the skin around my eyes has been tighter and smoother since using it. I was given a pretty large sample with a coupon code in early. January and actually was very impressed right away. I only yesterday had to open the full size I purchased since the sample lasted so long (opening the box to find the lid broken is another thing though - annoying- but I needed the product last night so I had to proceed. I figure I will keep the little inside sealer on it, or wonder if I could exchange it today - what's the online return policy again?) That said, I'm really worried about dark circles - I've had them my whole life, it's completely hereditary, and I don't really like to cake on cover up, I want to "naturally" look younger and less tired in the eyes :) I've found that Dr. Brandt's Dark Circles Away does the best job at fighting dark circles, but the problem with it is that it doesn't hydrate at all, and this winter especially, I felt like I needed some hydration. So, I've been using ORIGINS' Dr. Andrew Weil for Originsâ„¢ Mega-Bright Dark Circle Minimizer. I tried a sample of it in the store before buying. I was really impressed especially in the store when I tired it on my skin because it even brightened the skin on my hand where I tested it in the store. So, it definitely has some brightening aspects. For some reason I'm still not as happy with it regarding dark circles though as I was with Dr. Brandt. It is a great hydrator though. I don't feel like I look as tired as I would without an eye cream but it just isn't perfect. I'm hoping this Caudalie one (even if it is spendy) will do the trick. Time will tell.
 
Maracuja oil's actually just passionfruit seed oil, which you can buy for cheap in a lot of places, as long as it's cosmetic grade! I think any kind of pure oil like the Tarte oil or Josie Maran argan oil is just a worth of money since they're literally the same as any other options. Ofc, when it comes to mixed oils like Fresh seaberry or Boscia Tsubaki oils then it's a different story though.
I've never used the Josie Maran or Tarte oils for face - although I have samples of both in a box right now. I have used the Josie Maran hair oil though. It's ok, but it's much thicker than the Boscia Tsubaki oil (which I haven't used in my hair but the sales associate told me I could). Overall the Boscia one seems more lux and I couldn't imagine putting a thicker oil on my face. As it is, I only use it at night so it can work its magic and then be washed off in the morning.
 
I made a purchase on Sephora's site yesterday on 3/17 and it's being shipped with a USPS tracking code.  Every other order I've ever made from Sephora was a UPS code (most recent before yesterday was 2/24).  Does anyone know why it would switch providers?

That is odd--mine always come USPS from Sephora.

It could depend on where the item is shipping from. I almost always get my packages via UPS from Maryland.

Mine always come UPS from the Baltimore hub too (I live in northern VA.)  So weird! The only thing I can think of is that it was a small order- I got the new Tarte lip/cheek duo for $10,  and used a VIB free shipping code, no other items besides my 3 samples.  Maybe the code made it come from somewhere else, or the item wasn't available yet at the Baltimore hub?  I just know I've used the free shipping code before (it resets every few months) and this didn't happen before!

 
The only time Sephora ships anything to me via USPS is when the item is tiny. I prefer when they ship USPS so I can use the bubble mailer for a trade! Those huge boxes are ridic sometimes.

 
I have only received a USPS envelope from Sephora once last year. It was for something really small that I can't recall right now. Now, I have only been getting boxes shipped from Maryland, no matter the size of my order.

For the past week or two I've been using the Tarte Maracuja Oil deluxe sample as a serum in the morning and at night (under a moisturizer). I have to say that I am loving it and I think it is making my skin more radiant. I have barely made a dent in the .23oz bottle sample (I use 3 drops per application) and I am considering getting another one of these samples while they are still available with an offer code. Totally worth it. I'm not sure about getting a full size yet...I think it would take forever for me to get through and sometimes I lose interest in a product if I have it too long. Does that happen to anyone else?!

I just got this at Sephora & while they are minis, it is only $10.

 
In case anyone else is interested, I also love passion fruit seed (maracuja) oil, but Tarte's is really overpriced. I buy mine (and many other oils) at Garden of Wisdom. The packaging isn't fancy like Tarte but it's only $7.65 for a 1 ounce bottle with a dropper or $17.30 for a 4 ounce plastic bottle.

They also offer sample packs (under the exotic/carrier oils section) where you can pick .25 or .5 oz of any three oils (or choose a recommended set of three for different skin concerns) for $10.35. Shipping is based on the size of the order but has always been less than $5 for me. I've purchased oils all over the place and have always found GoW's to be high quality.

I wouldn't worry about stocking up on Maracuja Oil because it seems to be one of Tarte's favorite items to sample and has been popping up pretty frequently as both an offer code and as part of mini-sets in store. I have two mini bottles (one from a Tarte mini sampler set and one from an offer code) and I haven't made a dent in the first sample yet. A little goes a long way!

i'm going to redeem it tomorrow. i need something like this right now since my face is breaking out for some reason (i think it's the truth serum that's causing it, but i'm not sure yet. i don't want to use it more to confirm...). before this week, i don't remember the last time that i had 4 pimples at the same time..  :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />   i hope this murad thingy is effective!

This is so cute! I was going to get the Maracuja oil rollerball during Chic Week but I might get this instead!
