Or an extra deluxe sample!

That would work!

Yess!!! I'm excited. I'm going to try it today. Have you tried it with other foundations? Lmao! Yep! I looked hella wrecked. I tried to blend it away with my fingers but it was close enough to bedtime that I just washed my face instead. :lol:

So far I've used it 3 times, twice with TF Born This Way and I experimented with the Marc Jacobs sample again hoping I would like it better, which I did! It's still not my favorite foundation but it definitely didn't look so cakey and heavy, so it applied it really beautifully!

It looks like it came back in stock on  sephora's website, but it has already sold out (it shows online but when you try to add it to your cart - it says they don't carry it.. Sometimes that happens - it will go in and out of stock.  I would keep trying.. Is that brush on clearance in stores too? EDIT:  I have never felt it to decipher whether they're dupes or not, but Tarte and It  Cosmetics both have brushes with a similar shape.

 -- this is back in stock.. I just ordered it.. @MakeupAddict22 http://www.sephora.com/pro-bronzer-brush-48-P313015?skuId=1419431

Thanks so much! I was able to order it this morning!

I could have easily made VIBR by now, but I chose to spend my money at Nordstrom at the NARS counter because the ladies there really know their stuff and I get specific recommendations. I feel like the Sephora people just aren't as well trained.

I dunno, I'm fine with my VIB perks. I won't be making VIBR this year, I'll be thisclose (again).

No plans for buying big during the 20% sale in Oct/Nov?

Count me in! Edit: I went to Sephora's Facebook and they said to go to sephora.com/play on Augut 12th for more info. There is nothing there now.

Umm yes!!

This looks awesome. Hopefully better quality products than ipsy?

I would sign up in a heartbeat! I love Sephora and I love subscription boxes. Win-win!

Hmmmm... Maybe there should be a slight discount for VIB Rouge, or something. (Not that the price is too high or anything, but a new VIBR perk would be awesome, since it doesn't seem like there are that many.)

I'll admit, I'm curious to see how they handle this service!

 I have both brow beater and brow tamer. Beater is like brow wiz from anatastia.  Ulta has them out already if you want to try the testers. Tamer I like a lot - nicely sized brush, good pigment but feels lightweight and goes on easily and keeps brow in place.  this is my swatch of both in warm brown

Thanks a lot! I looked at the lighter colors at Macy's...they didn't even have the tester for dark brown. I didn't check out the Tamer though. I use the NYX brow mascara now that I love, before that MAC. Brow shaping is a combo of pencil and MAC Embark shadow. I only started pencil this year, before that my brows only needed light filling with powder. Then I started the ABH Pomade trend, that was intense, then NYX Brow Gel. Now I'm wanting more natural brows. I need to try one of these skinnies though. Likely UD since it's waterproof. I wish Ulta was closer to me. The UD rep at Sephora made it seem like it was such a big mistake that Macy's released "early", but if even Ulta even has them out...Sephora takes forever to launch stuff in stores sometimes and they're supposed to be the cosmetics "mecca".

I do Ipsy and I just signed up for Essence Magazine's which will cater specifically for WOC. I'm excited for that one. Why not throw Sephora in the mix? Lol

Oh. hmm. I might just have to buy some NARS stuff during that sale!

Got my Champagne Pop, it's gorg! Also got the little 3-pack of pink OCC Lip Tars to replace the rancid one I returned. These smell good, like peppermint. The hot pink is like colors I already have though, the violet was sold out when I placed my order then it was back the next morning :sigh:

I am trying the Essence one also. I'm kind of on the fence about it so I hope they wow me with the first box. Subscription boxes tend to be hot or cold so I will give them at least 3 months to win me over, but hoping for something good in October since it will be their first box.

Ladies with sensitive dry skin: When your skin is acting up what do you do for it? I have some serious dry patches, red irritation (rash-like) and overall sore skin. I have no idea what product could help moisturize and soothe it. Any ideas?

Yeah and tbh I should cancel Ipsy because I can count the products I actually used and liked on one hand in the last year. I'm a sucker for the bags I think. Or just the fact that it's $10, lol.

I have used a ton of skin masks and none really do the trick for me. I am still working through my glamglow thirstymud mask ( I bought 2 during a b1g1 free deal on their website).. and it really doesn’t do much for me.. (although some on here like it)..

I use Josie Maran Argan oil every morning and every night.. I also use Josie Maran’s intensive milk treatment, but recently got a new bottle and the consistency seems different.. it isn’t working like it used to.. (and judging by comments on Sephora’s website - I am not the only one)..

When my skin is really dry.. I simply put coconut oil ( organic ) all over my face and wear it like a mask for 10 minutes.. it works wonders.

I can do an inventory of all the hydrating masks I have purchased (will have to be tomorrow though before I can get to it)... Paula’s Choice is probably one of my favorites, but still not as hydrating as coconut oil.

The VIBTHANKS code is live if anyone is interested.

Dangit ! I just ordered something and used a different code.. that’s a good one!!

I just bought a hyaluronic acid serum that also has aloe and lactic acid in it and it seems to be helping. I've only been using it a week though and it was expensive as hell. I'm sure there are cheaper versions out there. I mix it with both my night and day moisturizer.
