Sephora Chic Week 2013

[rudegirl3]

I ordered: Aqualillies for Tarte Palette, Juicy Couture rollerball trio, and more Sephora waterproof eye makeup remover

 

[coralpeonies]

Stocked up on some Ole Henrikson truth serum for my mom and myself. My face seems to be addicted to this thing...

Also got the UD 24/7 eyeliner in rockstar -- my first UD eyeliner AND first purple eyeliner! I rarely wear eyeliner and when I do it's always brown. I feel this may be the beginning of a beautiful obsession  adventure.

I just put in my order for

Benefit Cosmetics Tropi-Coral Lip & Cheek Kit
Guerlain Météorites Powder For The Face, Color Teint Beige 02
Yves Saint Laurent TOUCHE ÉCLAT - Radiant Touch (02)

My order went through a whole revision process.

I wanted to pick up the Bite Beauty lip set and the Too Faced Sweet Indulgences Palette, but both went out of stock before I placed my order. =(

I am a complete newb when it comes to concealers.  I've never used one or owned one, but I get dark circles and I wanted to brighten my eyes up some. Initially, I was going to get the Benefit Fake-up. I had a sample of the YSL Touche Eclat and the first shade, the 01, just did nothing for me. But I  figured I'd give the next one a try, just to see- and it worked really nicely. Difference in the undertone, I think.

I wanted to get the Feelin' Dandy Benefit Lip & Cheek set, but that one went out of stock too. (I heard that the Dandelion blush is so very pretty, and I still do want to try it at some point, but the one in the Coral tones set will, I think, look pretty for spring and summer) They still had it in this morning, but I held off because I was waffling on the Météorites Powder-

I really wanted to try a nicer powder, and all the reviews said that it was the sort of thing that lasted for years (Which for me, sort of off-set the really high price point) but I kept saying to myself, but it's so pricey- and I have Neutrogena powder, which is just fine~

But my husband (who is patient with me, to almost saintly levels!) said, "You don't have a concealer at all, and no blushes, so it's just stuff you need." And my birthday is Tuesday, so I'm calling the powder a little present to myself!

The Benefit Coralista is my absolute favorite blush!!!!  You should def. check it out /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I have fairly fair skin with yellower undertones and it's the best pop of color on my cheeks!

 

[saku]

Yay! I placed my online order right away when I saw the Kat Von D star-crossed palette available (and on sale). Got everything on my list now! ..but no more $$

 

[amberlamps]

Yesterday, I went to a freestanding Sephora and one inside JCP. I got 2 totes and 16 different foils.

I bought:

I also picked up my birthday gift and two 100 pt perks:

 The Tarte mask and the stila convertible color thingy

Oh that's good to hear! I've got pretty fair skin, and I think I lean towards yellower undertones. (I'm not really conclusively 'warm' but I'm decisively not 'cool'.) So it sounds like it will be a really nice match for me, too! =)

For the longest time, my makeup routine was just lip gloss and mascara, sometimes some eyeshadow- so I am taking baby steps when it comes to blush. (Bronzer too, but a couples years back, I picked up a bronzer duo from Clinique that's so sheer that it's nearly foolproof!)

 

[viccckyhoang]

Okay... I didn't go all crazy and what not but I ordered the following: -Tarte Aqualillies Palette -Josie Maran Nourishing Argan Matchmaker Complexion Set in Medium/Dark (since the other shades were out) Total was $95 so it wasn't bad at all /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[iPretty949]

I always put a $50 limit every time I shop at Sephora online so I could get free shipping. Other than the Tarte Aqualilies palette, I did not see any other things I was interested with. I just put in an Anthony Logistics kit for hubby since he always makes me splurge for myself. Time to give something back to him.

On the other hand, me and my friend will be shopping in Sephora in Emeryville on Monday, I hope they have some good stuff in there!

I got the Nars And God Created the Woman set, Lorac 3D Lustre, Lorac Pro palette, and the Sephora 12 hour wear matte black liquid liner. That's the first time that I ever spent over $100 on makeup for myself but I'm getting rid of a lot of stuff that I currently don't use. And I did save $20 (plus Ebates). I can't open anything until I'm done with my course projects.

I wish their sample selection was better.

Sephora Jasmine nail polish set

Tarte Amazonian Clay blush in Tipsy

Sephora rounded smudge brush #12

I wanted to get the following but they don't have it in the store, so I'll probably get it online:

Lorac Pro

Tarte Aqualilies waterproof liner (I'll definitely get this!!)

Shiseido The Makeup Powdery Foundation

I know, I should chill and stop spending!

I am particularly excited about the Naked 2. I think I'm going to like it better than Naked /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

BTW, I made it to VIB! I couldn't resist the sale /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Naked 2 is my favorite palette, ever!

I'm having such a hard time deciding on what to get!

I know I really want to try Tarte's BB Tinted Treatment. I'm also looking to try a foundation but scared to take the leap cause I hate returning things & picking items on a whim. I wish I lived near a Sephora!

I was also looking at Stila's Countless Color pigments. Anyone try them? The colors are SO pretty - can't decide again lol.

Also OCC's clear lip tar and maybe the other set. Not sure. Ahhh decisions.

Maybe you should just get the Tarte Amazonian Clay Foundation. I got a set a few weeks ago the had a 1oz foundation, Maracuja Rollerball, full size Gifted Mascara, and a cute makeup bag for around $35.

yes you should try the set that snowleopard mentioned above! i was going to get that but i already have tarte's maracuja foundation :/

tarte's bb tinted treatment also runs kinda dark.. i'm usually a medium and it's a tad bit too dark on me.

I have Stila's Countless Color Pigment in Indie and it's so pretty!!! i'm pretty sure you can even use some of them as blush (with the reds, pinks, or purple shades of course!)

I'd confirm with them first.

 

 

It was only for yesterday, but the 15% off is for another week or two
