Wow my order just shipped, GO FLASH!

 

[normajean2008]

I do have the ultra repair cream but I remember it being rich and I'll take scaly over giant acne any day :lol:

Edit of course I say that and my face is awful today flaking everywhere FAB here I come.

If I turn into a giant pimple I'm blaming you /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have super sensitive break out prone skin, and FAB is my life saver.  It never feels greasy and never gives me any issues. 

The only other thing that fixes my super dry face is this cleansing balm... I have no idea if it has good or bad stuff in it, all I know is it is the only thing that has truly done magic on my skin lately.  It keeps my face hydrated over night and I don't wake up so parched.

I tried it today after putting my makeup on and then having to take it off immediately, it looked so bad. I'll give it a couple of days. It did not feel greasy on my face so that's good.

Is there a direct link for the birthday gift? I had it in my cart waiting, then when flash became available, I just grabbed that, so it removed it from my cart. Now it won't even give me the option to add it back in now that I have a tangible order to place /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I JUST WANT MY FREE NARS SEPHORA!

When you're on the checkout screen click 'select' on Beauty Insider Rewards. It should come up as an option to add on!

I'm debating if I want to renew my Flash right now... I think it's useful, but I'm on a no-buy for quite a while and having the option is always sorely tempting. I don't want to lose the option to renew, but maybe this will prevent me from hoarding stuff XD But I don't want to give up the option for flash...i just don't want it to waste away for 6 months while i'm not buying so i can use up what I already have. What to do :X

I have the same conundrum right now.  It seems silly to renew it now when I won't be buying anything from Sephora for a while.  Plus Flash makes small purchases too easy and tempting (currently eyeing a 15$ item).  But what if Flash isn't available when my no buy is over?  I wish they would make an announcement that Flash was a thing they'll be offering from now on.

So as a regular Rouge member, my order from yesterday afternoon would not have shipped until this weekend at the earliest...meaning it wont be picked up until Monday..wont arrive until Wednesday (Thursday probably if coming from east coast warehouse).  

But my Flash order from yesterday afternoon shipped last night, wasn't due to arrive until Monday, but arrived before 10am this morning.  I haven't picked it up from our lobby yet (because the guy wasn't there when my husband passed the desk), but it is here.  

And thank you to whomever posted Armani makeup is at Sephora.com now.  I kind of hate you, LOL.. (no not really) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  

I had to look up lipstick swatches and order one.  I think it was incognito I chose in the end, and used the SKII promo code with both moisturizers.

I don't feel like Flash is any faster than Rouge shipping. I placed my order Wednesday afternoon it did not go out until today. First it said it would be here Tuesday but now it says Monday. My Rouge orders had been shipping in as little as 12 hours but no more than 18.

Ummm...so you work at SiJCP right? I heard an employee at SiJCP tell a customer they could order into the store for them...first is heard of it and it was about two weeks ago or so.

1. Is this new?

2. Is this true? (Ok this question should prob be #1 hahaha)

3. Can't you order through work (even if not true for customers) since you work there?

4. Don't you get like mountains of gratis every month? (Ok this one is totally none of my business but I'm sooooo curious!)

The store manager at Ulta asked me to apply there, and I did, and never heard back. Now I don't see her there anymore, and she recently had twins so maybe she isn't there anymore (she was back after the twins, but now I don't see her at all) but she said they get so much free stuff it's insane. That's my dream right now, to have a second job around makeup and be on a gratis list!! I keep hinting to Algenist that I would be their brand rep if they'd let me, I don't want to be paid, I just want free products for me and my 300 MUT friends, and to spread the word that their products WORK!!

Not sure if I mentioned this before, but I turned a Lancôme brand rep onto Algenist because I was sharing pics of my before and after. She caught me loading up on foil samples, so I cried poor and showed her my pics. She then, too, grabbed a handful of samples herself!! I ran into her again a couple weeks ago, and she recognized me and told me she was starting to notice an improvement with her wrinkles too! Lol!!

It's not true that I know of! Maybe things are changing?!? Finger crossies hahaha
We can order a JCP from the store website item to have it delivered to the store, that I know, but no sephora items since it's all through sephora.com . I only get my discount at SIJCP, not online or at the freestanding sephora. (Sniff, sniff)

Gratis is supposed to be hush-hush.. I've only had a few of them, I was hired last summer and the first two weren't that great and then they were ok and we didn't get anything over the holiday hire times (nov-dec). The one from jan was the stuff that dreams are made of *inset heavenly angels singing* i do know that SiJCP doesn't get as much gratis as the free standing employees do (at least with people posting on Instagram lol). It has seriously helped curve my spending habits though along with being able to try textures of products on my hand or a sample of them.. I used to just buy and now that I can play in store, it helps. I think I save money by working there, who would have thought. (I also had years of mass makeup hoarder tendencies And I'm finally moving past that and into skincare)

I need foundation help again. I purchased the Hourglass Illusion which on some days I like and others I feel I look awful aka older. I got a great color match from the Sephora SA so, I have been happy about that. However, if I build coverage, I look like the tin man. I feel like it highlights big pores and my fine lines. I have used primer, no primer (looks the best), used a brush, blender, fingers, etc. A few times, it looks so nasty, I have removed and started over. So, I have really given this a chance. Today, I mixed it with my Estee lauder daywear light foundation to get the coverage without the spotlight on my aging/big pore areas. it looks good but, I would rather keep looking. I don't mind trying foundations.

Anybody love their foundation? I could go back and see what has been mentioned before but, I am lazy.

I didn't get color IQ matched at Sephora. But, I noticed on my purchase history, there is a color IQ number from the Hourglass purchase (1Q06). Has this helped anyone buy foundation on line?

the code should have a number then R or Y and then a number like 2Y07
If you want to get matched in store, I suggest going with no foundation/powder on.. I feel like the iq is usually pretty close if that is the case. When I have to take makeup off of people, sometimes I must not get it all off (especially if full coverage) and I feel like that usually gives a bit darker result. The employee should know to choose areas without age spots/blemishes or marks, etc I usually go with the chin, upper cheek and forehead. A lot of times after I have swatched on their cheeks, we will take a hand mirror and go in the JCP area to look in that light. The SiJCP lights make my dark circles look like I'm half dead, it hurts my heart lol lol

 

[Kookymama]

the code should have a number then R or Y and then a number like 2Y07

Oops I did type it wrong there - its 1Y06.

I was only swatched with a swipe on one jaw. I was probably lucky it worked out if its usually done in more spots. I will go foundation free next time. I have to cover the eye circles though. Otherwise I will be asked if I am ill.

 

[bluemustang]

I do swatches on just the jaw area all the time with or without the color IQ .. I love it when I guess and it's perfect. I want to do a dance haha

if I am going to use the color iq, the most accurate way seems to be when you are makeup free and then I can pick a few places on the face. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> When people have a lot of makeup on, we usually just remove along the jaw and I take all 3 pictures along there. every now and then it's just way off though, I've re-done it before when it's crazy. Or just ditch it and swatch by my guess. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[Shalott]

Because I'm neutral I can wear R or Y with no problems but I am always, always 1R02 or 1Y02, so I think the color I.Q. is pretty accurate when done right!

As for gratis, there are girls on YouTube who do Sephora Gratis Unboxings, so urk... I think people know already. The girls at my Sephora talk about it like it ain't no thang so to hear that it is supposed to be on the dl is strange.

When I worked for a cosmetics company we had a lot of gratis, but it was all brand specific to your particular division, so you didn't really know about tons of cool stuff from other counters, and you were encouraged to talk about future products to get customers excited. That was ten years ago, though, so things might have changed! h34r: /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

ARGH! I am going to need to restrain myself from ordering tiny amounts of things all the time.

I keep looking at the sales page and thinking, "Why yes, I do need a 15th bottle of gray nail polish or a backup liquid eyeliner." I totally don't want to be flagged for abusing free shipping, when really what would be happening is a total loss of self control and giving in to impulse buying!

If it makes you feel better, I have placed multiple orders back to back to use a good promo. Six in one day, within an hour I think, was the most. All orders at or very close to $25 so I could get the promo. I've easily done 20 orders in a week a few times too, but that was when I had things to order, now I shop from my loves list, or for replacements but only for a code or something I have to get there, otherwise I'm shopping Ulta. Or my third new favorite retailer, L'Occitane. Not just because of the contest (package due any day!) but also the more I sample from my stash, the more I love their stuff. And their products smell better than any others I've tried. Their immortelle foaming face wash is the best. Stuff. EVER!! And their almond cleansing oil (body wash) is equally perfect. The amount of foam, cleaning ability,and moisturizing factor are all pluses on an already 100% thumbs up product based on smell alone...win, win, WIN!!

I keep thinking I'm going to be banned, or something, but maybe they just prefer sending me defective or used/swatched crap instead.

Is NEWCLEAN a new code? Choose 1 of 5 cleansers?

 

[Brandy Roberts]

I just tried it, it's new, choices are Origins checks and balances, The boscia purifying cleansing gel, caudalie cleansing water, F a B skin rescue deep cleanser with red clay, and Murad poor reform skin smoothing polish.

Also WILDROSE for Korres sleeping facial mini.

FYI the employees, at least in CA have to pay taxes on the "free" items. When I worked for Nordstroms, womens active, some people would give back "freebies " that they would not be using. We were supposed to wear a $180 track suit for work once and pay around 20% taxes(deducted from paycheck) and some employees refused and "borrowed" them. I don't know if cosmetics is the same though.

I'm on a no/low buy as well, but the way I saw it was I will be using this a ton at the end of the year for Christmas and during the percentage off and gc events. So for me, even though I might now use it much now, it will more than pay for itself by the end of the year.
