What's the deal with Edward Bess? Is it being discontinued at Sephora, or everywhere? Why the fire sale?

Not being sold at Sephora anymore.  He claims it is too "mass market" and not high end enough for his brand now.  Yet he's selling his stuff at QVC (I think it's that one) instead, yeah, that's real high end, lol.  

The announcement was made by him 2-3 months ago or so.  Took a good while for Sephora to clearance out the remaining products.

Weird. I could never get on board with EB because it seemed like the quality/packaging wasn't in line with the price tag. I am a little bit tempted by this palette:

but I think I can contain myself unless Seph posts an amazing code.

i've never tried EB, but i agree about the packaging not matching the price tag. also, i saw somewhere that (at least the bronzer that this one girl has) is made in Taiwan (not USA or France/Italy like most high end stuff).

I'd say that palette is worth the clearance price.  I wouldn't buy it full price though.  The packaging is cheaper than the original packaging used by his brand, but the quad royale I have has held up quite nicely, and I like how sleek and non bulky it is.  

 
I guess I should have been more specific. I'm looking for SPF more than moisturizer. I just want an SPF that is wearable (which I thought I would have found in a moisturizer SPF). I want something that is not greasy or thick but offers sun protection! I don't usually wear makeup aside from my eyes on a regular basis so I don't want a makeup primer or anything like that - just a wearable, non-greasy, non-shiny SPF.
Cerave lotion with SPF 30. Works better for me than all the very expensive products I used to buy (I do miss the GWPs thought...), and I can use foundation or powders with or without SPF over it!

Thank you both!

I tried the Clarins one on Friday and yesterday. I think it's my favorite. I have to give it a few more tries though still, but it was similar to the Shiseido without the overwhelming whiteness.

 
Just got this one emailed today:

surprisingly, i love everything that i've tried from clarins. i love their moisturizers, facial washes, and toners!

 
I just ordered the Sun Safety kit (Rouge only for the moment) and got the Dior It-Lash sample and 15% back on Ebates.  Thanks ladies!!!

 
Thanks for the heads up on ebates! yay!

Ordered the Laura Mercier concealer and a becca souffle I have been meaning to order.

I don't have laura mercier at SiJCP so I was waiting for a sale, but 15% cash back is good enough! :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I have been curious about the becca souffles. They look gross but swatch really pretty. Be sure to report back what you think! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
I am super curious! I love her shimmery skin perfector and her beach tints, so I am sure this product is amazing.

I ordered the darker shade, I hope it's not too dark. Looks good on Christine from Temptalia, I'm her same skin color/shade so it should look the same on me :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I will definitely report back
