anyone know of a good eye cream that will diminish lines and make skin tighter. I found one but it's $200 and sephora doesn't sell it lol
I tried a sample of the Bobbi Brown Extra Eye Repair cream, and I really liked it. I only used it for a week so I have no idea about long term use, but I felt like it helped with the lines & bags from allergy eyes. It's out of stock online though.

When I read this, of course I had to go smell my Bite lip pencils. I discovered that a couple of them have a strange smell (almost crayon-like, but not...it's not the "your lipstick has gone bad" smell, but it's a little odd), but not all of them smelled like that. I only noticed it on two of the seven I have. It's not my two oldest ones either (and I don't think even my oldest ones are more than a year old yet), so I definitely don't think it's that they've gone bad. Wish I knew why some smelled funny and others didn't though! I should probably also say that I had to put the pencils right up to my nose to notice the smell on those two. Never noticed it when I've put them on. You must have a superhuman sense of smell! I'm sorry you're not entirely pleased with it

I LOVE THE COLOR THOUGH!!!! And yes I am one of those people with that kind of nose.

I think I will end up keeping it. There's got to be a way to work around that smell.

thanks I think I got a sample from the Bobbi brown 500 point perk. I will definitely try it and get it in store :)

Some of the things I wanted to wait to buy during the $20 off sale are out of stock. I wonder if they will be in stock by then

I'm glad I got the Anastasia Lavish Palette when I did because it looks like it's gone now. Also, that little Cleansing Oil that came in the Josie Maran duo set is really nice. It got all the makeup off AND it smells like oranges. Also, it left my face feeling really nice. Not oily, not dry. It felt soft and clean. I used it to remove my makeup and then I proceeded with my regular regimen of washing, toning, treating, moisturizing.
Do ou find that the oil starts getting hot on your skin (when you emulsify with water)? I had purchased it before and that really freaked me out! I'm not sure if it's meant to do that or I had a reaction to it. The SA's at my store didn't know either. :(

I'm actually tempted to get a few things later. I wanted to get my sister this adorable palette since she has an iPhone 5: http://www.sephora.com/jingle-all-the-way-P383427?icid2=Too_Faced_Editors_Picks _P383427_image and it's tempting to get my Mom her second ever blush and maybe an Ambient powder
That IS an adorable palette! It's also adorable about your mom's 2nd blush ever. I love it. I buy things like that for my mother too. She loves them but would never buy them for herself, so it's fun for everyone.

I'm heading to my other Sephora right now as they still have the Hourglass palette.
Can you please let me know if you find them? Thank you!
They had one left.  The first store called the second and had it held for me so I picked up up this evening.  PM me if you're looking for it.  I'm going to call another Sephora which is a little further out from me, but I can still get to via public transit, to see if they have any left and can hold them for me until I get off work.
The Sephora I just called have 5 of the palettes still in stock, so I asked to have 3 held for me. Anyone still not able to find one?

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but for those of you still wanting the sold out Lorac Pro Palette, it's still in stock at Beauty.com and they are having their 20% off sale now too.

I think I'll get that for my sister or the Anarchy Face Case. I'm not sure what to get my Mom as I've never shopped for mature skin before. Maybe a matte blush and a set of the Black Market UD pencils since she doesn't go for color. it is fun! My Mom's had the same Cover Girl blush for years so it's time for a new one.

For those of you wondering about Ebates. If you don't click the affiliate link first they WILL NOT credit your account. Just received a email from customer service.

Last year, I found that lots of items that were out of stock online during this sale were plentiful in the stores, so it wouldn't hurt to check! :)
If you live in NYC, in my opinion the Union Square and SoHo stores are better stocked than 34th or Times Sq!

I LOVE Anarchy! I have 4 other Revolution lipsticks (Venom, 69, Turn On, Manic) and Anarchy is definitely my fav. The Anarchy lip pencil looks great with it, too.
