Sephora

I fought so hard to return this, but was denied the chance so gave it to my girls and today they opened box 3 and 5 and they were empty.. add insult to injury. I am so frustrated and discouraged, I will not be buying from Sephora in the future.

I love the beehive, too @CynthieLu and the Dior works so well for this

Thanks everyone 🙏🏽

My sweet Owyn a year after he joined our family 

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Canadian BICs! Hope you have an awesome long weekend and a great time with family and friends!

10/13 what creeps you out? I have a long list, LOL. Bugs, snakes, rats (i use to live in NYC), spiders (especially the big ones) and weird noises when I am home alone.

Thank you! I will say, I am not one for the deeper side of purple blushes, I did gift Dancing Queen away to someone I knew would love it, it's beautiful but not for me. I knew that when I purchased it but every other shade is one I can play with. I'm so happy with them value of the set, especially with the upcoming sale. It's a great choice @Titian06 🤎👌

I definitely applied spf daily to protect my skin from UV. I’ll look into Sunday Riley retinoal night oil.

@RGbrown Yeah, I figured Ulta subtracted some of my points because they messed up (gave me too many) at some point. I used to always check to see how many points each of my orders actually get, but this year’s been unkind to my health and I’ve lacked the mental energy to do that. So I just assumed Ulta was trying to correct a points overage, especially since the deduction’s under 100. I’m not about to pick through my points ledger to figure out where they originally messed up though. 😅 Not this month, anyway. Seriously, too much brain fog for that; I have to reserve any mental clarity for other things nowadays. Eh, maybe I’ll try figuring it out later this year when I’ll hopefully be doing/feeling better. I have a running list of usability issues with Ulta’s community. (No matter how low my brain battery is, my UX design programming can’t be stopped. Not even if I want it to. 😂) You mentioned a few of the things I also noticed. There are definitely Ulta employees in the mix, which you won’t know unless you look at their user profiles—and that’s only if they state their employee status in their profiles. (One of them who’s posting a lot is an “eComm Strategy” Ulta employee. She doesn’t disclose that in any of her posts where she recommends products and whatnot. And no one would know that about her unless they happened to check her profile page. 🙄) And nope, the feed can’t be sorted in any way (date, A-Z, whatever) and I can’t figure out how the heck it’s organized, if at all. It’s as obnoxiously random as BIC’s bookmarked threads feed (which still hasn’t been fixed). I commented on someone’s thread/question over there, just to see how things work. There’s no way to see all comments I’ve made, and I doubt I’d get notified of a reply since my comment doesn’t show up in my feed under Profile; apparently that’s only going to show threads I make, I guess. I could go on and on. BIC runs on Lithium—or I guess I should say Khoros, since Lithium and another company merged a few years ago. Once upon a time, I was an admin for a different large Lithium forum and it was quite a robust app, plus it was very frontend user friend. I’ve often assumed most of BIC’s bugs from 2019 onward were due to a Lithium-to-Khoros software transfer, and I keep calling it “Lithium” because I’m old and stuck in my ways dang it. 🙃 Anyway, Ulta’s definitely not using Khoros. Not sure what they are using, but if their community grows, they’ll probably need to switch to a better app/software/platform. I mean, unless they wanna keep their “community” at tip board/quick question status.
