I love that perfume!!! I'm a huge issey fan.. I prefer the original EDP not edt and also have the floral pink one. Love that one but it lasts about 5 minutes, sadly. I never bought lotus because I was scared it would last as long as the floral one.

I love the smell of lotus tho!!

Also, that mj lippie sounds awesome!
ooh, now I'm really curious to see how the Lotus lasts on me.  I asked for a sample (was prepared to buy a roller ball in it, but it wasn't sold as one), b/c I refuse to drop $98 on a new fragrance until it has proven itself to me.  (I HATE returning things b/c of personal preference -- especially when there is a way to avoid this by getting a sample.)

I'm going to go spray myself with it..  lol, see if it lasts!

OH OH OH --- the MJ lippie.  Um, not really 10 hours, but I'd give it a solid 6 or so.  It was patchy this morning when I got up.  But.....  my lips were CRAZY dry all day long.  I hope it wasn't the formula of the lippie.   :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I felt the need to just suck on chapstick today.

 
I'm getting ready to try it overnight.  It transferred on my glass quite a bit, but eh, I might have been a little heavy handed with the application(s), lol.

Great timing tho -- I had stopped in Lush earlier and the guy made me exfoliate my lips with the Kiss product.  I was a bit grossed out about it b/c it was a tester, but he had it behind the counter and was scooping it with a stick.  I did NOT like the fact that he wanted me to lick off the excess.  (I definitely made a face like a baby who is refusing food on a spoon.)  I wiped most of it on my fingers and then on his towel.  I wasn't a fan of the salt taste, but eh, at least my lips were fresh for the new lippie!

PS -- Guy in Lush was AWESOME.  I got two hand massages and scrub down on my arms w/ Buffy (the Butt Slayer, lol, my name for it).  That stuff was DUH-mazing.  I never buy the big size and tonight I did.  I also snagged two samples (Rub rub rub and the seaweed face product).  Sweet Jesus I'm pretty sure I would have taken that boy home with me if he was for sale.
What color is the MJ point perk (If I missed where you named it, my apologies)

 
These are *all* rip offs of Armani Maestro tbh, which won Allure's innovation of the year or something two years ago
Yeah, it will remain to be seen which one is the best or if the original beats them all.

 
Re-enrolled in flash and ordered a few other items as well, then realized I was $1 short of making 500 points.

DOH!

Looks like I'm ordering a hair tie with flash so I can meet the 500 point milestone.

 
My replacement for the brush cleaner set came in and only 2 wipes once again! Somehow Ontrac is faster than UPS overnight saver air to me!

The package says 2 sets of wipes and the website says 4 wipes. So I assume it should be 2 sets of 2 connected wipes making it 4 but the packaging company read it as 2 wipes making the online description incorrect. Waiting to here back

I am supposed to mail back the first one but my tape is in a shelf blocked by some boxes but I had been unable to get to it because I hurt my back pushing a TV on Saturday. Maybe I will just get to keep both.

 
So, the brush in my After Dark Stained Gloss set fell apart when I tried to use it (the ferule came off from the handle). I sent Sephora an email, hoping to maybe just get a new brush or something, but no such luck. They are haiving me return the whole set and sending a new one. It's just silly. I should have just glued the dumb thing back together and not said anything. I hate the thought of the perfectly good stained glosses being tossed.

I tried mixing new wave and LBD yesterday and it didn't seem to last well. Today I wore Jealous on it's own and it seems to be lasting well. The pigmentation is better than I had expected from a "gloss" and from swatches I had seen. I need to try them out a bit longer to see what I think, but to me, totally worth the $10.

edit: I just sent them an email to see if we can just forget them sending me a whole new set, I'll keep mine as is. I don't like the idea of wasting all the stained glosses just because the brush sucked and was broke (I do have one from an old lip tar set, plus I do have other lip brushes I can use,  the set was so cheap it isn't a big deal).

My order with the SKII samples arrived yesterday.  The date on the bottom of mine said 8/5/14, so I guess mine came from a newer batch.  And they were completely full of product.  

I tried the white container, yeahhh no, too drying on my skin.  But I liked the red container so far.  I don't know yet if it is any better than my cheapo Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting cream..we'll see.  

They are small containers, but don't seem that much smaller than other tiny jars we pick from other brands.  A little goes a long way so it should last a few weeks at least.  

 
Gah. I told Sephora to cancel the replacement order,  I will just keep the one I have, it's no big deal. They responded with pretty much: too bad, send us back the stuff cause we are sending you new ones whether you like it or not. *rollseyes* I'm trying to be nice and not make them send me more stuff and they are doing it anyways.

Sorry, I keep going on about this, just for some reason it is just really bugging me.

Plus, I have to deal with the hassle of packaging it up and shipping it out lol.

I guess on a positive note for me, the new shipment gave me points in my account (up to a whopping 49 pts LOL I don't spend much at Sephora) and an extra $10 towards being VIB (only $329 to go haha), so that's nice :/

Atlanta (Lenox Square) won't part with the MJ lippy until Monday- they told me to call on Sunday to make sure it wasn't put out earlier. Dang it!

 
I picked up one of the YSL Tint in Oils and thinking of you all, asked if they had the MJ lipstick. It was in stock, but one of the managers had to pull it from the back, which makes me think the one who said it would be part of the February point perks is on to something.

If you're still waiting/looking, maybe try checking the website starting Feb. 1st? It's so adorable though, I love it. :smilehappyyes:

 
I'm supposed to go shooting with my bf on Monday, I wonder how annoyed he'll be if I insist on detouring to sephora first so I can check to see if they have the lippie? :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I was curious so I asked the SA at Sephora, she said they had to sell out of some of the other current point perks first.

LOL that made me laugh - like, Sephora knows some of the point perks are crud, so they *force* the stores to sell them while holding the good ones hostage. I'm dying! :lol: :rolleyes:
That reminds me of how the last time I was at sephora, the SA next to mine at checkout was asking her customer if she wanted any point perks. She must not have realised the formula x perk was 500 points and said she wanted that one, and the SA replied with "oh no, that one's *500* points. You need... A lot more points for that." Half of me was amused that the SA couldn't do the mental math and half of me thought she came across ruder than she probably meant (since the SAs at that sephora are always super nice).
ETA: sephora just posted this on snapchat and lmao I can't even

I got a refund for the brush cleaner set but now I don't know if I am supposed to return them? What does it mean how they are going to proceed? I would be happiest just keeping the set and paying for it and taking the 2 wipes out of the other set so I have 4 like it says in their description and just returning the one bottle of cleaner. I don't know if i should write that or wait for another response. I want to try the brush cleaner wipes but what if they ask for them back? I really like the everyday brush cleaner, I was surprised by how much came out of my blush brush and it dried really quickly. I already own a bottle of it and this was a good way to try the wipes if it had come with 4 like it was supposed to.
