Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Yeah! @Mcakes i totally agree. I don't mean to be so judgemental but a lot of the teenagers/young adults in this complex look so ... i dont know the word.. baggy pants.. tattoos.. long shirts. Im not going to lie i do get intimidated at times. So - if this gets dealt with by the complex before any more mail goes missing that would be awesome, but i doubt thats going to happen - till more people complain. 

GAHHh my husband and i are even considering to relocate to another area... Im hoping all of it improves because moving is not fun!!!

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Moving can definitely be stressful, but it seems like a good move given your current neighbor situation @kromance

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Glad it all worked out!  What the heck is going on with "kids" these days?  We've had packages stolen from our condo complex as well.  Don't they realize it's a crime?

 

I have a PO box where I get things shipped to OR I have them shipped to my office.  Can't trust anyone now days.  So sad 😞  

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

I ship to my office too. 

 

UPS tends to leave things outside.

Even if I am HOME - they leave it outside! 

 

I actually only order on certain days JUST to coordinate delivery on weekday at work. 

 

 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@AMK721 Yeah! Kids and adults alike. The society is so selfish now.. People don't think about the repercussions or the consequence of their actions anymore. When i was talking to the mailman today - he suggested to me about getting a PO box (like many of the BT community had suggested!) if im going to be getting sensitive mail. Nothing has been stolen since then - and i think if it happens again, i will be investing in a PO box as well. Hopefully - after reporting those i-d-i-ots -- it stops.  But if not, at least there are options to consider!

I just did my nails and now I want to eat Cuties (mandarins) for breakfast!!!!  ;') 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Did my signing in tip work? Or it's fixed?

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

It comes and goes. Hopefully, it stays good! 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

I hate how every time I fall in love with a Lush product it's either holiday, LE or gets discontinued. (I'm looking at you Yummy Mummy body conditioner, yog nog, tiny hands and LOVE spell!!! UGH!) I'll go on a no buy from Lush because it drives me nuts to not have any product consistency but then I end up right back there, following the glorious smells. 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Same! I love that Yummy Mummy body conditioner but I didn't see it last year and I don't think they will come out with it this year.

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Nope, I don't think it is either. I've been so hopeful too. It just makes me bonkers. I love the body conditioners but all the good smelling ones have been seasonal.

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

When you are depotting shadows and several of them break. And then you stab yourself with the knife you were using (annoying not serious). *sigh* maybe I'll should just order singles from now on.

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

I inevitably get hurt when I depot too. :(. 

 

And sigh, singles aren't as cost efficient though.  You get more variety from those bulky palettes. 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@heartsmyface When I repress shadows it makes the shadow really hard to pick up after. Idk what I'm doing wrong, any ideas? Idk why I'm getting hard pan

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@makeitup305 you might be adding too much alcohol and pressing too hard. It should JUST be barely wet enough to press down evenly. Use a tissue wrapped around a coin to press to help lift excess moisture without getting the hard surface. 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@makeitup305 I don't know.... I actually have the opposite problem and end up with a lot of kickup when using repressed shadows. 

Maybe you're pressing down too hard?  or maybe somehow getting oil from your hands in the powder?  Does the problem resolve if you take off the top layer with a piece of scotch tape? 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@heartsmyface Maybe that's it. I'm gonna try the scotch face trick and see if that helps. I'd hate to have ruined new eyeshadow for really no reason.

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

UPS has officially lost my most recent Sephora order. 

 

It had my Cover Fx moonlight drop DS, too. 

 

I know I can get a sample of any liquid item from a store, but it's *not* the same, thankyouverymuch. 

 

I think I'm going to go open my chocolate drawer in my pantry. 😞

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

I feel yah!!! UPS lost my Sephora gift card last week!!!  

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@wheeeee What now?! Ugh. I'm sorry to hear that. I hope your order was promptly refunded!

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Yea! This is the 3rd time I ask the hubs to get me a gift card and he always forgets to get the digital card.  So, they mail it out and I have to wait.

 

This time it doesn't arrive. He tells me that my GC is 'officially lost' and that Amazon is sending another.  

 

I was like....!  Are you kidding me??

 

Why didn't you request a Digital card?!

ahahahahahah!
