Sephora

Oooh, loving that lip shade @Ispend2much6

@heartsmyface I’m sure you totally got this!!

You all are so lucky, @Shosh85 @quspork! I am so jealous, have fun!!!

Omg these all sound amazing thank you soooo much I have to get my hands on these!

@MvLL very sad, indeed. I saw some of his fashion and it was exquisite.

I'm considering this one in a travel size. Sounds so interesting. I'll have to wait since I was waiting on AERIN Perfume Discovery Set since about November? of last year and it's back in stock.

My XL Lucky Bag arrived a day early. Fans of neutral/nude makeup would love this bag. Since I'm not a neutral/nude kinda gal, I’ll likely be trading most of it. Total bag value is $400 USD. Literally a mixed bag. 😄Keeping ($133): Good Molecules Hyaluronic Acid Boosting Essence ($14) - INCI list looks okay, so I’ll give it a try. Holifrog Galilee Antioxidant Dewy Drop ($48) - I see orange peel extract on the INCI list, but it’s near the tail end so there might not be enough essential oil in this product to be problematic for my face. Eh, I can always use it on my body instead. Overall, it looks like a nice antioxidant + skin brightening emollient and perhaps a moisturizer. I’ll try it. Surratt Artistique Liquid Blush, shade Classique ($45) - Yay, I was hoping for one of these! I’ve resisted buying one since they launched. 😄 On my hand, it feels very lightweight and blends easily. It’ll be interesting to see how long it lasts on skin throughout the day. Hindash Heroline ($26) - A black liquid eyeliner with a brush tip that’s marketed as 24-hour wear, water resistant, and smudge proof. I’ll test it on my hooded eyes soon. Didn't reach my $150 buy-in with this keeps list. Hopefully I can at least make up the difference via a trade or two, or by keeping a couple of the makeup brushes. On the fence ($144 unless I split up the brush set): Charlotte Tilbury Luxury Palette, Walk of No Shame ($53) - It’s a nice looking quad, just not shades I’d typically use. Funny: I decluttered all my CT quads except the original Rebel (the one that's true greens, not the re-release of khakis), so… I’ll probably trade this one. Units Orange Series Face Set ($91) - I’ve never used any Units brushes before. I’m tempted to keep the large powder brush (302) and/or the large bronzer brush (301), and maybe one of the 2 smallest brushes. I definitely don’t need all 6, especially not the sculpting brush (303) and foundation brush (304). Trading—will post in the trade thread this week ($123): Natasha Denona Chromium Multichrome Liquid Eyeshadow, shade Infra Nude ($28) - I already own this shade (along with 2 other Chromiums) and don’t need a backup. Wayne Goss Luxury Eye Palette, Imperial Topaz ($55) - Waaaay too neutral/nude for me. 😄 Wayne Goss High Shine Gloss, shade Hyacinth ($22) - This pale pink won’t work on me. Not even gonna swatch it to find out. Verb Ghost Oil ($18) - I have no need for it. I'm glad I didn't get the ND Zendo palette since I already have it. But I'm bummed I didn't get any Viseart shadows or Sonia G. brushes this time. At least I can actually use all the skincare products I got this time. 🙂

Thank you @TeamBIC for the fragrances!!! 💝💕 Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia Eau de Parfum was on my wishlist and I was so pleased to get it as a gift from Team BIC. It initially has a floral and musky/earthy smell. It lasted for more than 10 hours on clothing. After 8-9 hours, one cannot smell it from afar. But it lasted for up to 12 hours on clothing (at the last 3-4 hours you have to bring up the clothing to your nose to detect the smell).After a while, the smell changes. According to another person who wore this perfume, the smell shifted to a more floral with a hint of citrus. For me, after 5-6 hours the smell reminded me of the smell of old furniture/suitcases that had perfume on years ago or a vintage furniture store...like a years-old perfume mixed with aged leather. The other wearer of this perfume and I are not fans of the second smell and we felt like the second smell was stuffy. We like the first smell a lot. I have been wearing this perfume when I am not feeling uneasy/anxious as the second smell slightly enhances any uneasiness/anxiety I have. Lovely packaging. Greatly appreciate the gift. Chloé Chloé Naturelle Eau de Parfum is amazing 🤩 . It smells like perfumed rose 🌹 water (rose water + perfume oils = this perfume). Lasts for 7 hours afar, and 10 hours on clothing. No smell change. No sensitivity. Suited for anyone / simple smell that can appeal to anyone. Sleek and elegant packaging. In my opinion, this should be a unisex perfume on account of the smell being perfumed rose water. I can see any adult wearing this perfume. Just rose 🌹 water as a perfume. Floral Street Sunflower Pop Eau De Parfum Travel Spray 0.34 oz/ 10 mL Eau de Parfum Spray is citrus citrus and citrus, with a hint of floral. I definitely get bright and happy 😊 vibes smelling this. For me, it lasted for 3 hours before fading completely to the point that I can't even smell it on my clothing. I gifted this to someone who LOVED 😍 this perfume and said that it lasted well over 6 hours before starting to fade. I am currently testing out the other fragrances. Thank you so much Sephora and TeamBIC for the fragrances!!!! 😍⭐💝💖

My husband always says that! @Mellmars1185 It's true though. Or, when someone else makes them.
