SEPHORA: VIB Rouge

[JenTX]

What's the difference between ROUGEFRESH and VIBFresh?

I am rouge but used the VIBfresh code instead (I didn't realize there was a Rouge Fresh code).

Is it worth calling CS about? Or is it the same contents?

  
I believe the extra in the rouge code is already out of stock so def. don't worry about calling CS.

Ha! Happy accident!

I actually would prefer a non-rose tinted balm anyway!

Thanks so much for letting me know!

The rose balm was in addition to the VIB code stuff.

Skipped the event today, last one was blah and samples didn't excite me. Went to breakfast with the family instead.

I just got back - I'll try to post pics (but I'm not always successful!)...Had a blast!  Went solo as my friend canceled but I still had fun.  Actually my event was very much like the poster earlier described - except you did have to spend a min of $25 for the free tote and bag of samples, and we had reps from Bumble & Bumble, Tarte (yeah - my fave!!) and a couple more I don't recall.  I was first in line (and thanked for being first on my way out the door!).  All Sephora employees and brand reps lined up at opening and clapped for us as we walked in.  And for those of us that were there a bit early, we were already registered and had on name tags so we went straight in and I'm SO glad I went early.  I didn't have to wait for the Tarte ladies (district trainer helped me - learned SO MUCH!!) and I waited less than 5 minutes to get my hair done with the B&B ladies. They had a table of breakfast pastries (minis - like bear claws, scones, cinnamon rolls etc.), boxed Starbucks coffee, bananas and apples, and bottled water - and still had all but the fruit when I left.  One funny thing...I asked if I could get a second goodie bag for the store manager where I go to SiJCP because she couldn't make it - she had to get her store ready to open, but they said no.  Twice.   :blush: I asked at checkout and then I asked the manager on my way out.  The funny part was I was thinking afterwards, it isn't really a gift - if I get it for free right??  Hahaha but I did want to take her the goodie bag for being so helpful to me.  Both ladies suggested I have her go to her local Sephora to get the bag, and even after I repeated that she didn't know that I was just going to do it for her, they still reiterated what to suggest to her.  (sigh) They didn't get it.  She didn't know I was even going to ask for a goodie back for her so why would I follow up and suggest she go get one?  Anyway...I spent quite a bit of money and didn't do it for the points, or the free gifts & bag/tote, but because the reps REALLY helped me learn how to do things that I just didn't know before.  These events may not be for everyone, but for me it was just AWESOME!  One pic of purchases, and one including my freebies, birthday gift, and Sephora serum for a 100 point perk! /Users/brandyroberts/Pictures/iPhoto%20Library.photolibrary/Previews/2014/08/03/20140803-125955/gl0dTF9NS56dKWKYC%25gFWA/IMG_4207.jpg /Users/brandyroberts/Pictures/iPhoto%20Library.photolibrary/Previews/2014/08/03/20140803-125955/7YdzEjxGSkWdgIXqYwP8DQ/IMG_4210.jpg Can someone let me know if the pics are showing?  I have more to post if I did those right! Thanks!

I know they aren't 'showing' I mean can someone tell me if you can open them and see them.  Thanks!!

they do not work for me - but it sounds like you had a great time!

well, I was on line purchasing (cannot resist 4x the points! lol)

I did get the following items

Caudalie Polyphenol C15 Overnight Detox Oil

Tarte Rainforest After Dark Colored Clay Eye & Cheek Palette

Becca Beach Tint Shimmer Soufflé Raspberry/ Opal

plus samples...

I used ebates as it is 8% back today.

I am very excited about these items - I was in sephora a few weeks back and asked for a sample of the detox oil - I love it!! I held off purchasing it because I was hoping that memebox would put a detox oil in their detox box, but they didn't (but they had other great items in there)

The tarte palette is just so beautiful and the becca tint/shimmer is so pretty.  That was my favorite out of the several they had.

So pleased and happy to get these!

I went to the rouge event today and the sample bags were much, much better than the last event!! A rep gave me a free mascara (deluxe sample size, a Smashbox one that I would have never tried, but still a good freebie) AND I got my rouge nail polish at checkout that they forgot to gave me last time, and they noticed it on my account, I didn't even have to say anything. I was about an hour late (typical) they still had tons of gift bags and totes. The store manager greeted me, she was so sweet. Overall a really good experience and an improvement over last time. I got the new Marc jacobs eye palette, karuna sheet masks, a Smashbox highlighter pen, a bite lipstick and a bite bb lip balm, kat Von d eyeliner, and a few little extras near the checkout. A successful day! And still time to brunch afterwards. They had snacks there, but I wish they would have something that isn't a pastry.

You should be able to use each one once as rouge (at least I was able to). But the Roughfresh one also gives you the option to pick the rose tint too....but I forgot to check that box off, and just ended up with what was essentially the vibfresh kit. But I guess the rose tinit option is not longer available or OOS now too?

Did anyone else receive a VIB Rouge mirror compact at the event today? It's super cute, and has a note inside thanking VIB Rouge members for being the best clients and then oddly says Happy Holidays...anyone else get this? It's super cute, I'm wondering if they might be giving these out again at holiday time??? Just realized this when I was looking through pictures of people's bags.

I received a mirror at the last event in April or May...

I did not get one at that event! I'm happy that it was included in my bag this time around, I actually will use it.

I got one of them last Christmas. It was their special Rouge Christmas gift.

Thank you for clarifying!

Correct. The Rose tint is no longer an option.

I haven't shopped at Sephora online in a few months. (Shocking I know!) so I am out of the loop when it comes to the codes.

The first pic is my purchases, the second is purchases with free tote, cosmetic bag (you can't really see it though), my birthday gift and a Sephora serum 100 point perk.

@ Have you used the Tarte C-brightener eye cream? 

 

[Brandy Roberts]

Right side done...



All done!



Thank you Tarte!

 

[Brandy Roberts]

Moving on to Bumble & Bumble...learning techniques...oh so serious!!



Ta-da!!

 

[Brandy Roberts]

The Tarte rep used it on me today - and I bought it too!  It really seemed to do wonders for my dark circles under my eyes.  I also bought the CC corrector.  I have almost every thing else by Tarte - BB, CC, Foundation, bronzer, a few blushes, black lash primer, LCL, LCL Waterproof, LCF, the setting powder, a few lipsticks...and almost all my brushes are Tarte too.  I have 3 palettes too - Rainforest, and the two new ones from QVC.

I purchased a christmas set that had it and I liked it, just finished it up. Debating if I want to purchase or find something else... I don't have lines (yet, lol) and just want heavy moisture.
