Learning our A, B, C's: The Sephora BIC Beauty Edition

[itsfi]

Hey BIC, we're one week into the new year! Winter break is just about over for a lot of kids with many heading back to the classroom tomorrow (Monday) or soon, if they haven't already started back up. Thought I'd bring back a fun, favorite game from a few years ago with school picking back up. This will be a little lesson in Learning our  A, B, C's: The BIC Beauty Edition.

WHAT ARE WE DOING?:

* Basically, we will be going through the alphabet with beauty products, with the applicable letter being either (1) the first letter in the brand's name or (2) the first letter of the product's name. 

     - For example, for A - A can be for amika Soulfood Nourishing Hair Mask  (A = Amika) or A can be for Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray Jumbo 8.11 oz / 240 mL  (A = All Nigher Spray)

     - The next person will tag a product or brand that begins with B and then the next person will tag a product/brand that begins with C, then D, E, F, .... until we get to Z, and then we start over again! 

HOW TO PLAY:

* Look for the most recent comment to the original post

* Take your turn, by hitting "Reply" to original post and replying directly to that  main post (and not to the most recent comment)

* In your reply, be sure to:

    -- tag the product with the hashtag - #<<type name of product>>

    -- tag the person you are replying to with @ + the user name of the most recent comment

* When we get through the alphabet, we'll start over again with "A"

* There will be items repeated, but it would be great if we try to avoid repeating a product on the same page you're on.

* Optional: add a fun fact about the product you're tagging - what do you love about it, or if there was a reason you chose it (other than it being the next letter) - it's a favorite/holy grail product, it's a product you've been wanting to try, etc.

TO START:

* I will" reply" to the original / main post and tag a product or brand that begins with the letter A

* The next person will also "reply" to the original / main post but this person will tag a product or brand that begins with the letter B (also, remember to tag me - @itsfi)

* The next person will then also "reply" to the original / main post, but this person will tag a product or brand that begins with the letter C (and remember to tag the person who posted the letter B product / brand)

* We will continue in this way until we get to Z and then the next person will start back with the letter "A", with everyone replying to the original / main post.

FYI: Origins of this tag game

Spoiler

The original tag game was created by our amazing @AlexBT, who was gracious and enthusiastic when giving me the okay when I checked in with her about reviving this. Thank you for coming up with this fun and fabulous idea in the first place - it was a blast when you introduced it in 2020 (All Aboard the Tag Train: Play Along), and I'm hoping it will be so again this year. Would love to see you and others on @TeamBIC join in, along with the rest of the beauties on BIC. 

I will start off in a separate reply below – don’t forget to respond by replying to this main post instead of my reply. Here we go!

[itsfi]

@lmaster, I've seen this new line in store but have yet to try anything from it. I wonder if the kale or the green tea would be the more prominent scent, if it's even scented. Hmm...

[lmaster]

Very curious @itsfi 

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu J is for Kosas Plump + Juicy Vegan Collagen + Probiotic Spray-On Serum 3.38 oz / 100 ml . I really want to try this out!

@Mellmars1185, love the serum-in-spray form!

[Mellmars1185]

@itsfi Have you tried it?

[itsfi]

@Mellmars1185, I've not tried this one from Kosas but have tried a few from Kbeauty brands before Kosas launched theirs. I know @lmaster is a fan of the Kosas. If you decide to try the Kosas, would love to hear what you think of it.

[lmaster]

Oh it's great!! You should try it!! @Mellmars1185 

[Mellmars1185]

@lmaster Hehe I can be influenced easily 😆

[CynthieLu]

I is for The Inkey List. 🩵

The INKEY List Oat Makeup Removing Cleansing Balm 5 oz/ 150 mL . It's a gentle and affordable makeup removing balm that dosen't irritate my dry skin and it makes a great first cleanse. 🫧🧼

It also can act as a soothing and moisturizing 10 minute mask.  👌

[itsfi]

@CynthieLu, this is a good one!

[itsfi]

H is for HAUS LABS BY LADY GAGA Triclone Skin Tech Hydrating + De-puffing Concealer with Fermented Arnica ~ this has been working wonders for me @lmaster for concealing both breakouts and the PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) that follows when my blemishes are in the healing stage. 

Up next, we have I

[Mellmars1185]

@itsfi @lmaster I want to eventually try this!

[CynthieLu]

@Mellmars1185 same! I wonder if it's dry skin friendly 🤔🤔

[Mellmars1185]

@CynthieLu Oily skin girly here 👋! One of my fave influencers with oily skin loves this. Not sure if it is a hydrating one. @itsfi - Do you think this is dry skin friendly?

[itsfi]

@Mellmars1185, it is! My skin right now is normal-to-dry. I've been using it to conceal some dark spots, blemishes on a part of my face that has been dry to very dry. I still hydrate the area of course, before and after applying but it's held up well. I will say that when my skin is super dry and dealing with dehydration under the surface, the concealer can get eaten up / cakey as the day wears on, but that happens with every type of base product that I use when my skin is in that state.
